The circular economy is becoming a globalised phenomenon, but the regional emergence of circular business models differs significantly. By adopting a circular business institutionalisation perspective which bridges theory on institutional work and “ecologies of business models” we study the emergence of circular business models in Japan, a region with recent circular policy and business commitment
This thesis will inquire into the contemporary neo-Yugoslavian culture in Sweden and cultural intimacy as a base to recreate the bonds from the past. Moreover, mutual impacts between the two substantially different societies, the society of free individuals of the Swedes and neo- Yugoslav collectiveness, duh Yuge, are the result of a multifaceted process with intriguing outcomes.

Disturbed haemostasis is a central finding in severe Streptococcus pyogenes infection. In particular, microthrombi are found both at the local site of infection and at distant sites. Platelets are responsible for maintaining vascular function and haemostasis. We report here that M1 protein of S. pyogenes triggers immune-mediated platelet activation and thrombus formation. M1 protein is released fr
A dry release method for fabrication of suspended nanostructures is presented. The technique has been combined with an anti-stiction treatment for fabrication of nanocantilever based nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). The process combines a dry release method, using a supporting layer of photoresist which is removed using oxygen ashing in a reactive ion etcher (RIE), with CHF3 plasma induced de
Despite the recent clinical success of T cell checkpoint inhibition targeting the CTLA-4 and PD-1 pathways, many patients either fail to achieve objective responses or they develop resistance to therapy. In some cases, poor responses to checkpoint blockade have been linked to suboptimal CD28 costimulation and the inability to generate and maintain a productive adaptive anti-tumor immune response.
The nervous system is constantly infiltrated by blood-derived sentinels known as perivascular macrophages. Their immediate precursors have not yet been identified in situ and the mechanism that governs their recruitment is mostly unknown. Here, we provide evidence that CD68 (+)GR(-) monocytes can give rise to perivascular macrophages in mice suffering from endotoxemia. After adhesion to the endoth
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus) causes a variety of diseases, including acute pharyngitis, impetigo, rheumatic fever and the streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. Moreover, S. pyogenes was responsible for the classical example of a nosocomial infection, the epidemics of puerperal fever (childbed fever) that caused the death of numerous women in earlier centuries. The most extensively
Recently, to reach zero emission levels, some new energy systems based on fuel cells have been developed. This paper presents a review of investigations of these systems by thermodynamics performance, mainly, energy and exergy analysis. With energy analysis, the performance of an energy conversion system cannot be effectively and accurately evaluated. But exergy analysis complements and reinforces
The incidence of prostate cancer has increased dramatically during the last 10-15 years and it is now the commonest cancer in males in developed countries. The increase is mainly caused by the increasing use of opportunistic screening or case-finding based on the use of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing in serum. With this approach, prostate cancer is detected 5-10 years before giving rise t
Det är i brottmålsprocesser ovanligt att den anklagades ålder är oklar. Men när den är det så ställs stora krav på tillräckligt precisa metoder eftersom det spelar stor roll vad den anklagade bedöms ha för ålder. De svenska påföljdsbestämmelserna särbehandlar nämligen unga lagöverträdare på olika sätt beroende på ålder. Socialstyrelsen har tagit ställning till frågan huruvida tandmognadsbedömningIn criminal proceedings it is unusual that the age of the accused is unclear. But when it is, it is of utmost importance that the methods used to determine the age are sufficiently precise because the expected age of the accised is of paramount importance. The Swedish penalties provisions specifically deal with juvenile offenders in different ways depending on age. Socialstyrelsen has considered t
Background: A unique feature of alveolar mast cells is their low high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) expression. Recent discoveries in uncontrolled asthma suggest that the appearance of FcεRI-expressing alveolar mast cells may be a novel disease-specific feature of allergic asthma. This study investigates whether increased FcεRI-expressing alveolar mast cells are present in patients with mild alle
The gene for an IgA-binding protein from a group A streptococcal strain was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The IgA-binding protein, called protein Arp, was purified on IgA-Sepharose, allowing complete purification in a single step. Analysis of protein Arp by Western immunoblotting demonstrated a major IgA-binding band, with an apparent molecular weight of 42 kD. The purified protein was
Memories of the transition Memories of the transition is fictive. However, it is knowledge-based speculation. Much of the story is inspired by existing proposals, emerging innovations, or research on the transformations needed to meet our climate targets. We have collected some of these imaginative seeds below so that you can understand and construct your own vision of a post-fossil society. Conte
