The aim of this thesis was to compare different ways of dissociating tissue - specifically breast cancer tissue - and sorting out tumour cells and immune cells from the dissociated tissue using acoustophoresis in a microfluidic chip. Due to ethical issues with using tumour tissues to work on the methodology of a project, ultimately only healthy breast tissue was used in this work. Two dissociatio
As the clock ticks on our opportunity to limit catastrophic climate change, mitigation efforts are becoming increasingly essential, especially amongst countries with high current or historic emissions. However, these mitigation attempts are not a guaranteed success, especially when the system within which they operate is not understood due to unacknowledged bias in quantitative data. As such, wick
This study has sought to propose didactical approaches to find a balance between the teaching of classic and contemporary literature in the Swedish EFL classroom by exploring and comparing the attitudes of Swedish upper secondary school teachers and students towards both forms of literature. The study was conducted through two quantitative questionnaires, one researching the attitudes of 44 EFL st
As more and more In Vitro Fertilizaiton (IVF) treatments are performed each year, there is a need to better predict the outcomes of different stages of the treatment and hence get a better understanding of which hormonal and physical parameters affect the treatment outcome and in what way. In this study, the effect of interaction between baseline AMH (anti-mullerian hormone) and DFI (DNA fragmenta
Det får anses vedertaget att barn är en särskilt utsatt grupp världen över. Gifta barn, som dessutom är asylsökande, är alldeles särskilt sårbara. Insikten om detta bör genomsyra all lagstiftning som avser barn, där barnets bästa ska sättas i främsta rummet. Uppsatsens övergripande syfte har varit att undersöka ett i utlandet gift barns rätt att i Sverige återförenas med sina föräldrar. Syftet ha
Barnkonventionens artikel 3 och 12 ger uttryck för två centrala principer inom barnrätten, vilka även är fastställda i andra svenska lagar som föräldrabalken och lagen med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga. Principen om barnets bästa innebär att vid samtliga åtgärder som rör barn ska barnets bästa vara avgörande. Vid denna bedömning ska varje barn få chansen att uttrycka sina åsikter, vilka s
Uppsatsens fokus kommer ligga på de två stora principerna som genomsyrar barnkonventionen och därav också den svenska barnrätten. Barnets bästa som framkommer av artikel 3 och även barnets vilja som stadgas i artikel 12 barnkonventionen. En undersökning gällande hur artikel 3 kan tolkas görs för att vidare kunna öppna för diskussion. Frågan gällande om vaga rekvisit som argumenteras för att skapa
Denna uppsats utgår från premissen att barns rätt till integritet är en del av barns rätt till deltagande online. Barnrättslagstiftning presenterar i sig ett di-lemma som rör barns rätt till delaktighet och skydd, där en rättighetsbaserad strategi anses vara det mest effektiva sättet att ta itu med dilemmat. En rättig-hetsbaserad strategi förespråkar en balans mellan barns behov av skydd online ocThis thesis starts from the premise that children’s right to privacy is a part and parcel for children’s right to participation online. Children’s rights law inher-ently presents a dilemma relating to children’s right to participation and protec-tion, where a rights-based approached is considered the most effective way to address the dilemma. A rights-based approach is legal framework that can bal
Entrepreneurship education has grown rapidly and there is a steady increase in entrepreneurship courses and programs worldwide. For the past decade, research topics in entrepreneurship education have mainly been related to the entrepreneurial intentions, actions, and learning process of students. However, not much research related to entrepreneurship educators has been conducted. Specifically, the
Kraftringens geotermianläggning i Lund har varit i drift sen 1984. Det är den enda stora geoter-miska anläggningen i Sverige. Efter mer än 30 års drift är det dags att utvärdera hur det har fungerat. Arbetet be-skriver de geologiska förutsättningarna som stratigrafi (formation), formationstemperatur, typ av akvifer, porositet, permeabilitet och vattenkemi, samt driftdata, systemuppbyggnad, funktioThe geothermal heat plant in Lund has been running since 1984. It is the only one of its kind in Sweden. After running for more than 30 years it’s now time to evaluate the experiences from the long operational period of the heat plant. This report describes the geological conditions like the formation, temperature of the geothermal water, aquifer, porosity, permeability, and chemistry of the forma
Today’s human population is continuously increasing and this also increases the need of exploiting natural habitats. Increased exploitation results in loss of important habitats for different organisms, which in turn leads to biodiversity loss. The loss of biodiversity endangers the supply of ecosystem services, which is fundamental for human well-being. To mitigate the loss of biodiversity and ec
Ett för entreprenadavtalet utmärkande drag är beställarens ändringsbefogenhet, vilken innebär att beställaren under entreprenadtidens gång har möjlighet att ändra avtalets omfattning. Att utnyttjandet av ändringsbefogenheten vanligen medför produktionsförluster för entreprenören är den generella uppfattningen i branschen. Ersättning för denna typ av kostnader går att utfå med hjälp av AB 04 kap. 6A distinctive feature of the construction contract is the client’s authority to change the scope of the agreement. The fact that the use of the change authority usually entails production losses for the contractor is the general perception of the industry. Compensation for this type of costs can be obtained according to AB 04 chapter 6, clause 5, when a change order or a change in relation to the
As incidences of chronic diseases increase, the tools to diagnose, treat and monitor such conditions become more important. Medical imaging technologies, being one of these tools, still face challenges in safe and effective use. At the same time, poor design of medical devices causes errors that could be avoided using proper design methods. The master thesis is written in collaboration with Bild
As computer systems grow larger and more complex, the task of maintaining the system and finding potential security threats or other malfunctions become increasingly hard. Traditionally, this has had to be done by manually examining the logs. In modern systems, this can become infeasible due to either the large amount of logs or the complexity of the system. By using machine learning based anomaly
Data is a crucial resource for machine learning. But in many settings, such as in healthcare or on mobile devices, there are obstacles that make it difficult to utilize the available data. This data is often distributed between many clients and private, meaning that central storage of the data is inadvisable. Further, image data is often unlabeled and external labelling is impossible due to its pr
In Sweden there are several political goals stating the importance of diminished quantities of waste from the food sector, yet several thousand tons of potentially edible food are being discarded of every year. This study has examined the hindrances and opportunities of six different organizations/initiatives working to lower the rates of food waste from retail stores. It has also looked into pote
ASSA ABLOY is seeking a potential way of opening and closing automatic door to save the energy used by air infiltration. This thesis will provide ASSA ABLOY an intelligent swing door control system which aims to reduce more energy loss based on the consideration of human factors, product improvement cost. Air leakage through the building envelope into the building interiors has a considerable imp
The aim of this study was to examine what junior and intermediate level school teachers con-sider to be their responsibility in regards to actively paying attention to children who are vic-tims of domestic physical and/or psychological violence. The approach of the study was quali-tative with semi-structured interviews. Five junior and intermediate level school teachers from two different schools
Nanowires have attracted interest as fundamental building blocks for electronic and optoelectronic devices as well as for fundamental research. Photonic studies of single nanowire devices typically involve patterning of metal electrodes for electronic access, yet plasmonic ef- fects between the metal contacts and the light source may perturb experimental measurements. An alternative to conventiona
