LANGUAGE INTERPRETING AND BROKERING IN SWEDISH PUBLIC SERVICE INSTITUTIONS: THE USE OF CHILDREN FOR MULTILINGUAL COMMUNICATION

Language interpreting and brokering in Swedish public service institutions: the use of children for multilingual communication

The aim of this article is to analyse experiences of using children as language brokers in Swedish public services, and the consequences of doing so.We begin by DETANGLING SPRAY discussing and comparing the two concepts of brokering and interpreting.We then go on to analyse and discuss data obtained by quantitative and qualitative methods, includin

A strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae evolved for fermentation of lignocellulosic biomass displays improved growth and fermentative ability in high solids concentrations and in the presence of inhibitory compounds

Abstract Background Softwoods are the dominant source of lignocellulosic biomass in the northern hemisphere, and have been investigated worldwide as a renewable substrate for cellulosic ethanol production.One challenge to using softwoods, which is particularly acute with pine, is that the pretreatment process produces inhibitory compounds detriment

Transcriptional Profiling of CD8+ CMV-Specific T Cell Functional Subsets Obtained Using a Modified Method for Isolating High-Quality RNA From Fixed and Permeabilized Cells

Previous studies suggest that the presence of antigen-specific polyfunctional T cells is correlated with improved pathogen clearance, disease control, and clinical Drinks outcomes; however, the molecular mechanisms responsible for the generation, function, and survival of polyfunctional T cells remain unknown.The study of polyfunctional T cells has
