C. The only lerpene-like natural hydrocarbon containing nine C atoms. It is found in East Indian sandalwood oil and also in Siberian, German and Swedish pine-needle oils. It has a rather unpleasant smell, resinifies easily and is difficult to obtain pure.

The system is to be qualified under the new regulations for ISI in Swedish nuclear plants, SKIPS, during the spring of 98 and the pre-trials for these qualifications has produced very promising results. 

The DART system presented in this paper will be used for inspection of welds in Swedish nuclear power plants during 1998.

Gr. helios, the sun). Janssen obtained the first evidence of helium during the solar eclipse of 1868 when he detected a new line in the solar spectrum. Lockyer and Frankland suggested the name helium for the new element. In 1895 Ramsay discovered helium in the uranium mineral clevite while it was independently discovered in cleveite by the Swedish chemists Cleve and Langlet at about the same time. Rutherford and Royds in 1907 demonstrated that alpha particles are helium nuclei. 

Another event that stands out in my memory was the Nobel Lecture I gave before the Swedish Academy of Sciences, chaired by Professor Kerstin Fredga, its President and the leading Swedish space scientist. She is the daughter of the late Arne Fredga, a chemistry professor and long-time member of the Nobel Committee and the Nobel Fonndation. I had known him and visited him in Uppsala years before thus it was even more of a personal pleasure to meet his daughter. The only formal...

Synthetic Diamond. In 1955 the General Electric Company announced the successful production of diamonds (see Carbon, diamond, synthetic) from graphite under very high pressure and temperature ia the presence of a metal catalyst. It was later reported that a Swedish company, Allmana Svenska Electriska AB (ASEA), had succeeded ia ptoduciag diamond ia 1953 (35). 

Lactic acid [50-21-5] (2-hydroxypropanoic acid), CH CHOHCOOH, is the most widely occurring hydroxycarboxylic acid and thus is the principal topic of this article. It was first discovered ia 1780 by the Swedish chemist Scheele. Lactic acid is a naturally occurring organic acid that can be produced by fermentation or chemical synthesis. It is present ia many foods both naturally or as a product of in situ microbial fermentation, as ia sauerkraut, yogurt, buttermilk, sourdough breads, and many other fermented foods. Lactic acid is also a principal metaboHc iatermediate ia most living organisms, from anaerobic prokaryotes to humans.

ZeoHtes were first recognized as a new type of mineral in 1756 by the Swedish mineralogist A. F. Cronstedt (13). The word "zeoHte" was derived from two Greek words, and A/.0O, meaning to boil and a stone. More than 200 synthetic zeoHte types and 50 natural zeoHtes are known. The...

Phthalates in Water. Reported levels of phthalates in natural waters are, in general, low. Concentrations found in fresh waters range from nondetectable up to 10 )-lg/L. Measured concentrations (54) in Swedish rivers vary from 0.3 to 3.1 )-lg/L. The highest values are found near industrial discharge points.
