    Sammanfattning : Rapid economic development has occurred during the past few decades in China with the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) area as one of the most progressive areas. The urbanization, industrialization, agricultural and aquaculture activities result in extensive production and application of chemicals. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Helical tomotherapy for total marrow and total skin irradiation : Optimisation, verification, and clinical results

    Författare :André Änghede Haraldsson; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ALL; Leukemia; radiotherapy; hematology; Oncology; Leukemia; radiotherapy; Tomotherapy; Oncology; ALL;

    Sammanfattning : In modern cancer therapy, radiotherapy (RT) is a vital part of most treatments. Most RT treatments in Sweden are performed using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with fixed or dynamic arc delivery. The dose gradients outside the target are steep, the margins are small, and the treatment delivery is complicated. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Forest biotechnology is a fast emerging field of research. The application of biotechnological tools will enhance the quality of the forest products. The resultant value added and environmentally sustainable products are an absolute necessity in the future. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Computational methods for assessing chemical risk : focusing on toxicokinetic modelling in zebrafish (danio rerio)

    Författare :Ioana C. Chelcea; Patrik L. Andersson; Timo Hamers; Jessica Legradi; Stefan Örn; Carolina Vogs; Nynke Kramer; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PBTK; Toxicokinetics; Endocrine disruptors; bisphenols; zebrafish; embryo; Toxicology; toxikologi;

    Sammanfattning : New chemicals are constantly produced and large data gaps exist on hazards of currently used industrial chemicals, stressing the need for rapid, ethically sound and cost-efficient hazard assessment methods. Traditional methods for effect assessment based on animal testing, do not meet these requirements and thus the toxicology field has been moving towards the development of new approach methodologies which include in vitro approaches but also computational methods.

  7. 10. On the operation of light-emitting electrochemical cells

    Författare :E. Mattias Lindh; Ludvig Edman; Thomas Wågberg; Thomas Lanz; Sebastian Reineke; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Artificial Light; Organic Electronics; Light-emitting Electrochemical Cells; Electrochemical Doping; Thin-film Optical Model; Optical Modes;

    Sammanfattning : We are in the midst of a technological revolution that permeates nearly all human activities; artificial light is one of the most visible contributors in this societal change. If more efficient, green, and versatile light sources can be developed, they might improve the life of millions of people around the world while causing minimal damage to our climate and environment.
