Popular Abstract in Swedish Polymergeler och deras interaktioner med joniska surfaktanter. Olika typer av hydrofoba polymerer och hydrophobmodifierade polymerer tvärbinds kemisk till geler. Dessa geler tillhör gruppen responsiva geler, vilket betyder att gelerna ändrar sin volym under yttre påverkan. Gelernas volymändring studeras vid tillsats av olika joniska surfaktanter, vid tillsats av saltThe response on chemically crosslinked gels and polymer solutions on the addition of ionic surfactants and/or addition of salt at different temperatures have been studied. All polymers studied are water soluble and slightly hydrophobic or hydrophobically modified. Because of their hydrophobicity the polymers have a strong tendency to associate, both with themselves and with surfactants. Another i

Abstract. Spatial heterogeneity of biodiversity arises from evolutionary processes, constraints of environmental factors and the interaction of communities. The quality of such spatial analyses of biodiversity is improved by (i) utilizing study areas with well defined physiogeographical boundaries, (ii) limiting the impact of widespread species, and (iii) using taxa with heterogeneous distribution

The electronic spectra of three rhombic type 1 blue copper proteins, nitrite reductase, pseudoazurin, and cucumber basic protein, have been studied by ab initio multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory (the CASPT2 method). The six lowest excitations have been calculated and assigned with an error of less than 1800 cm-1. The singly occupied orbital in the ground-state forms a strongly

The Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor Say (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae), is a pest of wheat and belongs to a group of gall-inducing herbivores. This species has a unique life history and several ecological features that differentiate it from other Diptera such as Drosophila melanogaster and blood-feeding mosquitoes. These features include a short, non-feeding adult life stage (1–2 days) and the u

Objective. Serum calcium concentrations have been associated with the risk of malignant disease, especially breast cancer. Thus, determinants of serum calcium concentrations, with special regard to risk factors of breast cancer, are of great interest. Material and methods. Previous studies have either been small or they have not focused on reproductive factors. The present study examined serum cal

This study parts from comparing two different kinds of readings of two short stories publicized under the literary gender fantastic feminism, and written by one of the most well-known authors in this genre, the Puerto-Rican Rosario Ferré. The stories analyzed are “El hombre dormido” (1976) (Man asleep, mi traducción) and “El sueño y su eco” (1976) (Sleep and its echo, mi traducción) given the simi

I jakten på förnyelsebara energikällor är solceller en av de mest lovande teknikerna. Idag dominerar kisel-solcellen marknaden men även den har begränsningar och därför är det motiverat att utveckla andra sorters solceller. En solcellsteknik på utvecklingsstadiet som försöker efterlikna fotosyntesen är Grätzelsolcellen. Precis som i fotosyntesen är det en färgämnesmolekyl i solcellen som ska absorIn the hunt for fossile-free energy-harvesting techniques, solar cells constitute one of the most promising techniques. Today, silicon-based solar cells are the dominant technique on the market but even the Silicon solar cell has limitations which means that there is a motivation for developing new solutions. One of those techniques is the dye-sensitized solar cell. Just as in photosynthesis, the

Abstract in UndeterminedUzbekistan, after gaining independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, had publicly declared that it would adhere to democratic governance principles in designing and implementing its public administration policies. As a newly-independent state with democracy claims, Uzbekistan had tried to establish new democratic institutions with an effort to capture international communi

A series of bistridentate ruthenium(II) polypyridyl-type complexes based on the novel 2,6-di(quinolin-8-yl)pyridine (dqp) ligand have been synthesized and their photophysical properties have been studied. The complexes are amenable to substitution in the 4-position of the central pyridine with conserved quasi-C-2v symmetry, which allows for extension to isomer-free, rod-like molecular arrays for v

This intermediate report presents some of the important findings of the research work carried out during the first three years of the CHRISGAS project. The report is aimed at a broad technical-oriented audience such as: engineers with a general interest in the state-of-the-art and new developments in the biomass-to automotive fuel sector, and/or to teachers/lecturers/students in technical subjects

Religionsfrihet är en grundläggande mänsklig rättighet. Artikel 9 i Europakonventionen reglerar religionsfriheten och dess begränsningar. Konventionen är inkorporerad i svensk lagstiftning och ska således tillämpas i Sverige. Med anledning av det så kallade handskakningsmålet ställs religionsfriheten i förhållande till arbetet mot ett könsjämlikt arbetsliv. Frågan väcks och diskuteras huruvida relFreedom of religion is a fundamental human right. Article 9 of the European Convention regulates religious freedom and its limits. The Convention is incorporated in Swedish law and has to be applied in Sweden. On account of the so-called handshake-case, the freedom of religion is put in relation to work towards a gender-balanced working life. The question is raised and discussed whether freedom of

Mnemonic discrimination, the ability to distinguish similar events in memory, relies on subregions in the human medial temporal lobes (MTLs). Tau pathology is frequently found within the MTL of older adults and therefore likely to affect mnemonic discrimination, even in healthy older individuals. The MTL subregions that are known to be affected early by tau pathology, the perirhinal-transentorhina

This paper is Part I in a series of articles focused on a fundamental study on liquid jet disintegration. The main goal of this work is to provide an extensive open access database of high-speed images and videos for modelers and researchers in the field of fluid mechanics studying the dynamics of a liquid jet transiting from the Rayleigh to the atomization regimes. The injector under examination

This chapter mainly deals with biochemical aspects on prostate specific antigen (PSA) and its clinical value. To a limited extent, also other tumor markers, which might be of importance in the evaluation of patients with prostate cancer are discussed. In serum, PSA exists in a free form or bound to antichymotrypsin. Interestingly, only 10% of PSA secreted from cancer cells seems to exist in a free

Varje år blir klimat- och miljösituationen på vår planet värre. Mänsklighetens aktiviteter ökar kontinuerligt planetens genomsnitts¬temperatur och globala klimatsystem är satta ur balans. Sammanvävt med klimatkrisen orsakar vi dessutom en massutrotning av arter som idag har nått skrämmande nivåer. Den här uppsatsen undersöker hur miljöstraffrätten förhåller sig till klimat- och miljökrisen på ettThe environmental and climate crisis deteriorates every year. Human activities keep increasing the average temperature of our planet and as a consequence, global environmental systems have been put out of balance. Simultaneously and intertwined with the climate crisis, human behavior is also causing a mass extinction of species with a terrifying speed. This thesis investigates how Swedish environ

In the 1990’s there was a lot of discussions in the EU regarding energy and the need for a common EU energy market. Both for the sake of competition, but also in order to provide a stable supply of energy to all EU citizens. The EU began promoting an EU energy market. The first EU legal acts in this area concerned the establishment of an EU energy market and consequently to create competition be

Bemanningsbranschen har under de senaste årtiondena vuxit kraftigt i Sverige och är idag en etablerad del av arbetsmarknaden. Behovet av att reglera bemanningsbranschen rättsligt insåg EU redan tidigt och efter många turer och skilda åsikter i frågan så kunde EU 2008 beslutaom bemanningsdirektivet. Direktivet skulle vara genomfört i Sverige senast 2011 men blev klart först i januari 2013 då uthyrn

Det har funnits en tradition i det svenska påföljdssystemet att särbehandla unga myndiga. Den 2 januari 2022 slopades delvis ungdomsreduktionen. Underlaget för den delvis slopade ungdomsreduktionen bestod av betänkandet Slopad straffrabatt för unga myndiga vilket utgjorde underlag för propositionen Slopad straffrabatt för unga myndiga vid allvarlig brottslighet. Propositionen ledde till att ungdomThere’s been a tradition of special treatment toward young adults in the Swedish legal sanction system. On January 2, 2022, the young adult penalty reduction was partially abolished. The basis for the partially abolished young adult reduction consisted of the report Abolished sentence reduction for young adults (Slopad straffrabatt för unga myndiga), which in turn formed the basis for the proposit

In 2016, after decades of armed conflict, the Colombian government signed a peace agreement with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia – People's Army (FARC - EP). Nevertheless, the hopes for peace have not been realised, since violence, assassinations of social leaders, displacement of local communities and environmental degradation still occur. New groups are taking over the areas forme
