Hoitoalan esimiesten keinot ja haasteet epätyypillistä työaikaa tekevien alaistensa hyvinvoinnin edistämisessä
2016
TIIVISTELMÄ Miika Klinga & Ville Leskinen (2016). Hoitoalan esimiesten keinot ja haasteet epätyypillistä työaikaa tekevien alaistensa hyvinvoinnin edistämisessä. Terveystieteiden laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto, terveyskasvatuksen pro gradu-tutkielma, 63 s., 4 liitettä. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää kahdessa eri sairaalaorganisaatiossa työskentelevien hoitoalan esimiesten kokemuksia ja näkemyksiä epätyypillisen työajan asettamista haasteista ja keinoista, joita heillä on käytössään vuorotyötä tekevien alaistensa hyvinvoinnin edistämisessä. Lisäksi tutkittiin millaisia uusia keinoja esimiehet haluaisivat ottaa käyttöönsä alaistensa hyvinvointia edistämään. Tutkimus toteutettiin laadul…
Cationic and Anionic Impact on the Electronic Structure of Liquid Water
2017
Hydration shells around ions are crucial for many fundamental biological and chemical processes. Their local physicochemical properties are quite different from those of bulk water and hard to probe experimentally. We address this problem by combining soft X-ray spectroscopy using a liquid jet and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations together with ab initio electronic structure calculations to elucidate the water–ion interaction in a MgCl2 solution at the molecular level. Our results reveal that salt ions mainly affect the electronic properties of water molecules in close vicinity and that the oxygen K-edge X-ray emission spectrum of water molecules in the first solvation shell differs signi…
Spectral dynamics of incoherent waves with a noninstantaneous nonlinear response
2013
We study the influence of a constant background noise on the dynamics of spectral incoherent solitons, which are incoherent structures sustained by a noninstantaneous (Raman-like) nonlinearity. As the level of the noise background increases, the incoherent wave enters a novel nonlinear regime characterized by oscillatory dynamics of the incoherent spectrum, which develop within a spectral cone during the propagation. In contrast to the conventional Raman-like spectral red shift, such incoherent spectral dynamics can be characterized by a significant spectral blue shift. On the basis of the kinetic wave theory, we derive explicit analytical expressions of these incoherent oscillatory spectra…
Multi-channel receptors based on thiopyrylium functionalised with macrocyclic receptors for the recognition of transition metal cations and anions.
2010
We report herein the synthesis and characterization of a family of ligands containing different cation binding sites covalently connected to a thiopyrylium signalling reporter. The receptors L1–L6 are able to signal the presence of certain metal cations via three different channels; i.e. electrochemically, fluorogenically and chromogenically. An acetonitrile solution of L1–L6 shows a bright blue colour due to a charge-transfer band in the 575–585 nm region. The colour variation in acetonitrile of L1–L6 in the presence of the metal cations Ag+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Fe3+, Hg2+, Ni2+, Pb2+ and Zn2+ has been studied. A selective hypsochromic shift of the blue band was found for the systems L4-Pb2+ and L…
Properties of a triazolopyridine system as a molecular chemosensor for metal ions, anions, and amino acids.
2006
The characteristics as a chemosensor of the compound 3-methyl-6,8-di(2-pyridyl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[5',1':6,1]pyrido[2,3-]pyrimidine (1) have been analyzed. Interaction with Cu(2+) produces a quenching of the fluorescence, while interaction with Zn(2+) leads to a quenching of the fluorescence followed by a bathochromic shift. The crystal structure of the Zn(1)(H(2)O)(3)(ClO(4))(2) x H(2)O complex shows the coordination of Zn(2+) through the terpyridine moiety. The octahedral site is completed by three water molecules. Interactions of the Zn(2+) complex with the anions sulfate, nitrate, nitrite, and dihydrogenphosphate in ethanol produce hypsochromic shifts and restoration of the fluorescence wh…
Substituent Effects on the [N-I-N](+) Halogen Bond
2016
We have investigated the influence of electron density on the three-center [N-I-N](+) halogen bond. A series of [bis(pyri din e) io dine](+) and [1,2-bis ( (pyridin e-2-71 ethynyl)b e nze n e)io dine](+) BF4- complexes substituted with electron withdrawing and donating functionalities in the para-position of their pyridine nitrogen were synthesized and studied by spectroscopic and computational methods. The systematic change of electron density of the pyridine nitrogens upon alteration of the para-substituent (NO2, CF3, H, F, Me, OMe, NMe2) was confirmed by N-15 NMR and by computation of the natural atomic population and the pi electron population of the nitrogen atoms. Formation of the [N-…
1.5Jy MOJAVE AGN sample and 3FGL data
2016
We use the complete MOJAVE 1.5Jy sample of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to examine the gamma-ray detection statistics of the brightest radio-loud blazars in the northern sky. We find that 23% of these AGNs were not detected above 0.1GeV by the Fermi-LAT during the four-year 3FGL catalog period partly because of an instrumental selection effect and partly due to their lower Doppler boosting factors. Blazars with synchrotron peaks in their spectral energy distributions located below 10^13.4^Hz also tend to have high-energy peaks that lie below the 0.1GeV threshold of the LAT, and are thus less likely to be detected by Fermi. The non-detected AGNs in the 1.5Jy sample also have significantly l…
MOJAVE. XIII. New 15GHz observations on 1994-2013
2017
We present 1625 new 15GHz (2cm) VLBA images of 295 jets associated with active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the MOJAVE and 2cm VLBA surveys, spanning observations between 1994 August 31 and 2013 August 20. For 274 AGNs with at least 5 VLBA epochs, we have analyzed the kinematics of 961 individual bright features in their parsec-scale jets. A total of 122 of these jets have not been previously analyzed by the MOJAVE program. In the case of 451 jet features that had at least 10 epochs, we also examined their kinematics for possible accelerations. At least half of the well-sampled features have non-radial and/or accelerating trajectories, indicating that non-ballistic motion is common in AGN je…

Complementary approaches for assessing protein sources in fish feed
2018
Fluctuating fishmeal (FM) prices and declining marine fish stocks have led to the current trend of replacing dietary FM with plant proteins (PP) in fish feed. PPs offer challenges both with respect to nutritional quality and the occurrence of antinutrients. The assessment of utilisation efficiency of PPs for growth is important for the sustainable production of fish feed. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the applicability of stable isotope analysis in combination with respirometry in the evaluation of dietary PPs for juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The dietary PPs were corn gluten meal (CGM), rapeseed protein concentrate (RPC) and potato protein (PoP). Complet…
