Land remediation is an important part of restoration measures after a radioactive fallout containing long-lived fission products such as 137Cs. In this multidisciplinary study, we focused on three main issues related to remediation of contaminated urban areas. First, we assessed how much decontamination contributes to reducing resident radiation exposure and how much this reduction depends on the
Popular Abstract in SwedishAvhandlingens syfte var att öka kunskapen om syskons och föräldrars erfarenheter av barn med autism och utvecklingsstörning, vad som ledde fram till beslutet att söka en plats i en gruppbostad för sitt barn och vad det innebar för föräldrar att deras barn flyttat. Avsikten var också att öka kunskapen om personalens erfarenheter av arbetet i en gruppbostad för barn med auThe aim of this dissertation was to gain knowledge about the experiences of siblings and parents of children with autism and learning difficulties, about what brought about the decision to apply for a place in a group home for their child and what it meant for the parents that their child had moved. A further aim was to gain knowledge about what it is like to work in a group home for children with
Anställda och uppdragstagare vid universitetet utsätts ständigt för påverkan av andra och utsätter även andra människor för påverkan av olika slag. Sådana kontakter med omvärlden är nödvändiga. För dig som anställd inom en statlig myndighet är det särskilt viktigt att veta vad som kan vara mutor och otillåtna förmåner. Vad är en förmån?En förmån kan se olika ut men har ett värde för mottagaren, so

Climate change and human impact play a huge role in the sustainability and development of ecosystems and the services they offer to societies over temporal and spatial scales. Fossil pollen-based estimates provide unique information on past land cover change, but to date there are not many methods able to create spatially continuous maps and have a fine scale of land cover changes inferred from po
Trångboddhet har länge varit ett omtalat ämne inom svensk bostadspolitik. År 1946 gjordes de första statliga åtgärderna för att motverka trångboddhet, som en följd av de dåliga boendeförhållandena som rådde i Sverige. En av åtgärderna var att en trångboddhetsnorm formulerades, kallad trångboddhetsnorm 1 idag, i syfte att ge vägledning åt befintligt och nytt bostadsbestånd. Enligt trångboddhetsnormFor a long time crowded living has been a well-known topic in Swedish housing policy. In 1946, as a result of bad housing conditions in Sweden, the first actions were taken to fight against crowded living. One of the actions was establishing a housing standard, today known as the housing standard 1, which contained guidelines on how many people should live at the same residence. The purpose of est
Anthropogenic activities threaten many wildlife populations by increasing mortality rates, making it crucial to identify the locations and causes of mortality to inform conservation actions. Technological advancements, such as GPS satellite tracking, enable precise recording of wildlife movements. High-resolution data from such devices can facilitate rapid carcass recovery and provide insights int
Ground level ozone [ozone] is considered a harmful air pollutant but there is a knowledge gap regarding its long term health effects. The main aim of this study is to develop local Land Use Regression [LUR] models that can be used to study long term health effects of ozone. The specific aim is to develop spatial LUR models for two Swedish cities, Umea and Malmo, as well as a temporal model for Mal

The production, consumption and disposal of plastics in today’s economies simultaneously contribute to climate change and pollution. With expected production growth for plastics, these problems will only exacerbate. To address the plastic crisis, we need a reduction of its production, as well as a fundamental rethinking of our relationship with this material. Reorganising economies to be less reli
The chiral tetradentate N4-donor ligand, 1-methyl-2-({(S)-2-[(S)-1-(1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl methyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl]pyrrolidin-1-yl}methyl) benzimidazole (S,S- PDBz L), based on a chiral dipyrrolidine backbone, has been synthes
Two hydride compounds with aliphatic pincer ligands, (PCyP)IrH2 (PCyP = {cis-1,3-bis[(di-tert-butylphosphino)methyl]cyclohexane}- (1) and (PCyP)IrH4 (2), have been studied, with emphasis on features where such systems differ from arene-based analogues. Both compounds reveal relatively rapid exchange between α-C-H and Ir-H, which can occur via formation of carbene or through demetalation, with near
The latent heat flux (LE) between the terrestrial biosphere and atmosphere is a major driver of the global hydrological cycle. In this study, we evaluated LE simulations by 45 general circulation models (GCMs) in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) by a comparison with eddy covariance (EC) observations from 240 globally distributed sites from 2000 to 2009. In addition, we imp
Although platelets are best known as primary mediators of hemostasis, this function intimately associates them with inflammatory processes, and it has been increasingly recognized that platelets play an active role in both innate and adaptive immunity. For example, platelet adhesive interactions with leukocytes and endothelial cells via P-selectin can lead to several pro-inflammatory events, inclu
Molecularly imprinted nanoparticles are cross-linked polymer colloids containing tailor-made molecular recognition sites. In this study, molecularly imprinted nanoparticles were easily encapsulated within polymer nanofibers using an electrospinning technique to produce a new type of molecular recognition material. Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was used as the supporting nanofibers matrix to e

To accomplish these goals we will: A) establish the stimulus-secretion coupling in human pancreatic islets from non-diabetic organ donors to obtain proof of concepts derived from rodent studies; these data will also establish the gold standard for efforts to differentiate embryonic stem cells into mature islet cells.

Background: Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) is a life-threatening disease where early diagnosis is critical to avoid morbidity and mortality from extensive irreversible bowel necrosis. Appropriate prediction of presence of bowel necrosis is currently not available but would help to choose the optimal method of treatment.
