Secondary metabolites produced by fungi and bacteria are among the potential agents that contribute to adverse health effects observed in occupants of buildings affected by moisture damage, dampness and associated microbial growth. However, few attempts have been made to assess the occurrence of these compounds in relation to moisture damage and dampness in buildings. This study conducted in the c
The concentrations of cartilage proteoglycan (aggrecan), stromelysin-1, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) and procollagen II C-propeptide in knee joint fluid and the levels of aggrecan, hyaluronan and keratan sulfate in serum were measured before and after exercise in 33 healthy athletes. The samples before exercise were obtained after 24 h rest from running or soccer and the sampl
Denna tvärvetenskapliga uppsats behandlar brotten mord och dråp som stadgas i 3 kap. 1 § och 3 kap. 2 § i BrB. Mord och dråp utgör två svårhetsgrader av uppsåtligt dödande, där det förstnämnda är normalgraden av uppsåtligt dödande medan det sistnämnda definieras som mindre grovt med hänsyn till bland annat de omständigheter som föranlett gärningen. Genom denna uppdelning hävdar lagstiftaren att This interdisciplinary essay deals with the crimes murder and manslaughter, which are regulated in chapter 3 § 1 and § 2 in BrB. Murder and manslaughter are two degrees of intentional killing. The former is the standard level of intentional killing while the latter is defined as less serious considering, inter alia, the circumstances that caused the action. By this division the legislator assert
Vargen som art är strikt skyddad i enlighet med EU-rättsliga direktiv. Undantag från skyddet medges endast under vissa specifika förutsättningar. Möjlighet att få prövat i domstol om dessa förutsättningar varit uppfyllda när ett licensjaktbeslut fattats saknades i svensk rätt fram till så sent som den 1 april i år (2016), eftersom det fanns ett överklagandeförbud i jaktförordningen. I stället utgjThe wolf is as a species strictly protected by directives from the EU. Exceptions from the protection are only admitted in accordance with certain specific conditions. Up until the 1st of April 2016 the Swedish Hunting Regulation contained a ban on appeals, meaning that the question of whether the conditions for licensed hunting for wolves were fulfilled or not, could not be reviewed by a court.

This bachelor thesis studies the relationship between the luxury bag and young female consumers, in order to explore how this relationship affects the usage of the luxury bag. Four interviews with females between ages of 20-30 were held, according to an ethnographic method, to examine the purchase experience, the relationship and its influencing factors and also the usage of the luxury bag. This a
Hävning förklaras på olika sätt och innebörden av hävningsbegreppet är inte helt tydlig. En hävning kan innebära omfattande konsekvenser för parterna, vilket särskilt gäller avseende entreprenadavtal. I fråga om hävning av entreprenader är det endast den återstående delen av entreprenaden som hävs, varmed den utförda delen som inte omfattas av hävningen i stället hanteras genom en ekonomisk reglerTermination is explained in various ways and the meaning of the concept of termination is not entirely clear. Termination of a contract can have far-reaching consequences for the parties, and this is particularly true in the case of construction contracts. When construction contracts are terminated, only the remaining part of the contract is terminated, and the part of the contract that has been p

The proposal entails a con stitutional amendment to Chapter 2, Paragraph 7 of the Instrument of Gov ernment, which establis
In this work simulations of the LIBAF Pelletron were performed to gain insight into the parameters that govern the machine operation and control. Three simulation packages: COMSOL, WARP and TURTLE/TRANSPORT were employed, and cross-validation of these software packages was performed by test-case simulations. The major components of the Pelletron were simulated on a individual basis to ensure their
In modern ASIC verification, bridging the gap between IP-level and system-level test environments is a major challenge, especially as system-on-chip (SoC) complexity grows. This thesis presents a novel methodology leveraging the Accellera Portable Stimulus Standard to enable portable, reusable verification scenarios across these levels. The approach introduces a pre-runtime signal forcing mechanis
I början av 1990-talet genomfördes en reform på vårdnadsområdet för personer med funktionsnedsättning, den s.k. LSS-reformen. Avsikten var att lagen (1993:387) om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade skulle ge dessa personer bättre möjligheter att leva sina liv på samma sätt och på lika villkor som personer utan funktionsnedsättning. Lagen har därför utformats som en rättighetslagstiftninIn the early 1990s, Sweden undertook a major reform of care and support services for persons with disabilities: the so-called LSS reform. The aim of the Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (1993:387) was to give such individuals better opportunities to live their lives on equal terms as persons without disabilities. The Act has therefore been designed
Syftet med denna framställning är att utreda och analysera säljarens ansvar vid informationsgivning till potentiella köpare i samband med förhandlade företagsöverlåtelser. Säljaren vill med sin information till köparen få målbolaget att framstå som så attraktivt som möjligt, han vill med andra ord göra en så god affär som möjligt inom de ramar som lagen ställer upp. Huvudfrågan som uppsatsen sökerThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate and analyze vendor's liability for disclosure of information to potential purchasers of unlisted shares. The seller wants the target company to appear as attractive as possible; in other words he wants to make the most favorable deal possible within the limits of the law. The main question in this thesis is to analyze what information and circumstan
Bile acids (BAs) play different roles in cancer development. Some are carcinogenic and BA signaling is also involved in various metabolic, inflammatory and immune-related processes. The liver is the primary site of BA synthesis. Liver dysfunction and microbiome compositional changes, such as during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development, may modulate BA metabolism increasing concentration of c
Groundwater is a crucial source of water supply in drought conditions, and an auxiliary water source in wet seasons. Due to its increasing importance in view of climate change, predicting groundwater level (GWL) needs to be improved to enhance management. We used adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) to predict the GWL of the Urmia aquifer in northwestern Iran under various input scenario
BACKGROUND: Bronchodilator responsiveness (BDR) in asthma involves both the central and peripheral airways but is primarily relieved with beta-2-agonists and evaluated by spirometry. To date, antimuscarinics can be added as a reliever medication in more severe asthma. We hypothesize that combining both short-acting beta-2 agonist (SABA) and short-acting muscarinic antagonist (SAMA) could also impr
Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a chronic autonomic disorder characterized by excessive heart rate elevation upon standing or head-up tilt, in the absence of orthostatic hypotension. This debilitating condition affects primarily young to middle-aged individuals, particularly women, and substantially influences quality of life. The main presenting symptoms are lightheadedness, palpitations,
The investigation is concentrated on two important quantities – the Strouhal number and the mean base suction coefficient, both measured at the mid-span position. Reynolds numbers from about 50 to 4 × 104 were investigated. Different aspect ratios, at low blockage ratios, were achieved by varying the distance between circular end plates (end plate diameter ratios between 10 and 30). It was not pos
The clinical evaluation of regional delays in myocardial motion (myocardial asynchrony) has proved problematic, yet it remains an important functional parameter to evaluate. Prior attempts to quantify regional asynergy have met with limited success, often thwarted by the low temporal resolution of imaging-system data acquisition. If a delay in onset of motion of 30-40 msec is clinically important
Objective: Primary stenting of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) in intermittent claudication (IC) has been shown to increase health related quality of life (HRQoL) after 12 and 24 months. An extended follow up of HRQoL 36 and 60 months after randomisation is presented. Methods: A multicentre randomised controlled trial was conducted at seven vascular clinics in Sweden between 2010 and 2020. On
Microbicides in the leather industries are employed to avoid the biodeterioration of the hides by microorganisms. This problem may lead to harmful characteristics to the end product such as stains, roughness and decrease mechanical properties of leather. Therefore, microbicides like the 2-(thiocyanomethylthio) benzothiazole (TMCTB) are applied in distinct steps of the tanning process as alternativ
