Small-animal positron emission tomography (PET) has proven to be a promising and useful modality for preclinical pharmacokinetic studies. Thanks to high sensitivity and spatial resolution in the range of a few millimetres, the possibility to perform reliable and accurate quantification and absorbed dose estimates is within reach. In preclinical radioimmunotherapy (RIT), the slow targeting and clea
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling behandlar konstnären Elis Erikssons liv och verk ur ett semiotiskt perspektiv. Den semiotiska teori som appliceras i avhandlingen ska ses som en kultursemiotisk eller sociosemiotisk teori. Den är därmed uttryckligen kritisk mot den rigida tillämpning av lingvistiska modeller som så ofta förknippas med semiotiska studier inom humaniora. I enlighet med deThe title of this thesis translates as "Elis Eriksson: Objects and Signs" and concerns the life and work of the Swedish artist Elis Eriksson (1906-2006) as analysed from a semiotic point of view. The semiotic theory applied in the thesis is to be regarded as a theory of cultural semiotics or socio-semiotics, explicitly critical towards the rigid application of linguistic models so often associated
I denna rapport jämförs två olika grundläggningsmetoder med fokus på deras praktiska tillämpning och tillhörande klimatpåverkan i urbana miljöer. Syftet är att undersöka, belysa och öka kunskapen om mindre beprövade grundläggningsmetoder i Sverige, samt öka förståelsen för deras potentiella fördelar. Jämförelsen fokuserar på hur en permanent bärande sekantpålevägg utförd med CCFA-metoden kan vara This report presents a comparative analysis of two foundation methods, focusing on their practical implementation and environmental impact in urban environments. The aim is to examine and enhance understanding of less commonly used foundation techniques in Sweden, while also evaluating their potential advantages. The comparison specifically investigates whether a permanently load-bearing secant pi
This study examines how public transport passengers experience and use travel time and under what conditions they are particularly concerned about shorter travel time. Using a survey of Swedish public transport users and a follow-up focus group, we compare current patterns with a similar 2009 study. Findings indicate a slight decline in perceived value of travel time, coinciding with a marked redu
Electric buses are increasingly popular in public transport systems globally, and in many European contexts, this transition takes place through public procurement. While previous research argues that electrification challenges existing procurement practices and strategies, the aim of the paper is to contribute new knowledge on the role of public procurement in the transition to electric buses andElectric buses are increasingly popular in public transport systems globally, and in many European contexts, this transition takes place through public procurement.

They have been claimed to play a leadership role in a European and global context.

Denna uppsats behandlar hur begreppet livsmedel ska förstås i mervärdesskatterättslig mening. Frågan har blivit relevant på grund av den tillfälliga sänkningen av mervärdesskatten på livsmedel från 12 procent till 6 procent, som gäller från och med den 1 april 2026 till och med den 31 december 2027. Eftersom den reducerade skattesatsen endast omfattar sådana produkter som rättsligt kan klassificerThis thesis examines how the concept of food should be understood in the context of value added tax law. The issue has become relevant due to the temporary reduction of VAT on food from 12 percent to 6 percent, which applies from 1 April 2026 until 31 December 2027. Since the reduced tax rate only applies to products that can legally be classified as food, the scope of the concept gains both pract

Att silver har en bakteriedödande effekt har varit känt sedan många århundraden. Historien om silver sträcker sig ända tillbaka till 4000 år före Kristus då de antika Kaldeérna använde silver och det var på den tiden en av mest använda metallerna tillsammans med guld och koppar. Persiska kungar föredrog att dricka vatten endast från bägare gjorda av silver för att vattnet kunde bevaras friskt och Over the past decade, a massive increase in the use of nanomaterials and nanoparticles (NPs) in both commercial and medical applications has occurred. Medical applications include advanced drug delivery vehicles, imaging and hyper thermic therapies. In retinal research, several nanomaterials have been explored in novel treatment approaches, ranging from metals, carbon, polymers and silica to biolo
Bakgrund: Informationsteknologin har genomgått flera dramatiska förändringar under åren. Den senaste stora förändringen var uppkomsten av Internet. Internet skapade billiga och effektiva sätt att koordinera och utbyta information. Det skapade inte bara möjligheter utan även frågor om hur företag borde använda dessa teknologier för att skapa lönsamhet. Ett sätt för företag att svara på des
Medarbetarupplevelse (employee satisfaction or employee experience) is an organizational phenomenon that has become an ascending work-process within the HR-profession. Through five interviews with various HR-practitioners, we managed to answer this essay’s three framing questions: 1) How can medarbetarupplevelse be defined? 2) Which essential and mutual factors can we identify in the interviews?
I detta examensarbete undersöks databasen Plantfacts som innehåller data om stålverk från hela världen. Syftet med detta är att utvärdera om det finns en koppling mellan primärt och sekundärt producerat stål och olika typer av stålverk i downstream-processer. För att utföra detta har databasen formaterats om i Excel med hjälp av Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Från början var Plantfacts databIn this thesis the Plantfacts database is investigated, which contains data about steel plants from all over the world. The purpose is to evaluate wheter there is a coupling between primary and secondary steel and different types of steel plants in downstream processes. To achieve this, the database has been reformatted using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) in Excel. Initially, the Plantfacts
The focus of this thesis is the myths and ideologies inscribed into the aesthetics, narratives and gameplay of post-apocalyptic videogames. The aim is to discuss how the conditions and conventions of the game medium shape what is presented to us as a modern, secular form of apocalypticism. The case studies presented are the two well-known videogames Fallout 4 and The Last Of Us. The research focus
Den strukturella arbetslösheten har legat på 2% under hela perioden 1940-1990. Även efter lågkonjunkturen i början på 1980-talet gick den tillbaka till denna nivå. Dock ökade långtidsarbetslösheten, vilket tyder på att många av de personer som blev arbetslösa under lågkonjunkturen hade problem att ta sig tillbaka in på arbetsmarknaden, trots ökad efterfrågan. Efter 1990-talskrisen ökade både den s
För att kunna föreslå förbättringar i ALP: s produktionslayout insåg vi rätt tidigt att det första steget för detta arbete var att sätta sig in i företagets produkter och hur de tillverkas. Vi inledde därför vårt arbete med en kartläggning av produktionen och dess olika produktionslinjer. Med detta som grund fortsatte vi sedan med att föreslå en ny layout, samt förbättringar i delar knutna till de
The board at the Student accommodation house Michael Hansens Kollegium (MHK) in Lund, Sweden was interested to investigate if the building Benzelius 2 could benefit from having a solar system installed on it’s roof. The report shall answer on what eventual costs and savings the solar system would result in. The report shall give the board of MHK an indication whether to invest or not. Several meth
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the level of trait anxiety and to which extent the equestrians reinvest to consciously control their movements, and if the result had an influence on performance. The selected participants were 30 elite equestrians, actively competing in dressage. All participants were competing on a both national and international level in this
