Gas-phase diffusion is a widespread process in nature, for example diffusion of pollutants in the atmosphere. A special case of diffusion is the so-called Knudsen diffusion where a gas diffuses in the molecular flow regime. The theory for Knudsen diffusion is well-known therefore, diffusion experiments …

Full text met HU account. In this article we report a study into the Dutch probation service about the question whether structured decision making about case management plans does or does not improve the quality of these plans, and subsequently improves the effectiveness of offender supervision. Two …

In 2017 Volvo will deliver 100 self-driving cars as part of the Drive Me project. These cars will be able to drive autonomously on the ring road of Gothenburg, without requiring any driver supervision. To realize this vision, the cars need different algorithms to recognize, and be able to react to, different …

Mobile Rapid-DNA devices have recently become available on the market. These devices can perform DNA analyses within 90 min with an easy ‘sample in–answer out’ system, with the option of performing comparisons with a DNA database or reference profile. However, these fast mobile systems cannot yet compete …

Reversed-phase HPLC with mass spectrometric and diode array detection as well as some literature data were used to reveal the individual types of solutes in anthocyanin complexes of tulip flower petals that are responsible for tulip flower petals coloration of the samples available in the local flower …

Standard treatment for large burns is transplantation with meshed split skin autografts (SSGs). A disadvantage of this treatment is that healing is accompanied by scar formation. Application of autologous epidermal cells (keratinocytes and melanocytes) may be a suitable therapeutic alternative, since …

Inleiding: Bij de Nutritional Assessment Faciliteit (NAF) van de Haagse Hogeschool (HHS) worden allerlei metingen van het rustmetabolisme (RMR=Resting Metabolic Rate) uitgevoerd. Voor metingen van de RMR heeft de NAF in begin 2016 een nieuwe indirecte calorimeter aangeschaft, de COSMED Quark RMR. De …

Introduction: The kinetics of protein oxidation, monitored in breath, and its contribution to the whole body protein status is not well established. Objectives: To analyze protein oxidation in various metabolic conditions we developed/validated a 13C-protein oxidation breath test using low enriched milk …

With increasing world population, more wastewater is produced which all need purification treatment. Removal of pathogenic organisms is important because they can cause problems to human health. This experiment will focus on the removal of human bacterial pathogens. The problem of human bacterial pathogens …

Chronic widespread pain is highly present in patients with the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome hypermobility type (EDS-HT), but up to now, evidence for generalized hyperalgesia is lacking. The aim of this study is to investigate whether pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) at both symptomatic and asymptomatic body …
