This works deals with the degradation of a group of recalcitrant compounds known as toxaphene. Toxaphene is a complex mixture of chlorinated compounds including hexa- and octachlorocamphenes, hepta-, nona- and decachlorobornanes. Some components of toxaphene are very persistent while others are degraded rapidly by both abiotic and biotic processes. Not all components of toxaphene have been identif
AIM: To estimate the incidence of collagenous colitis (CC) in southern Sweden during 2001-2010. METHODS: Cases were identified by searching for CC in the diagnostic registers at the Pathology Departments in the county of Skåne. The catchment area comprised the south-west part of the county (394 307 inhabitants in 2010) and is a mixed urban and rural type with limited migration. CC patients that h
Popular Abstract in Swedish De flesta av Sveriges cirka 15000 större broar är byggda i betong. Ett problem som kan uppkomma i betongbroar är sprickor, vilka kan bidra till att minska broarnas beständighet och säkerhet. I en del broar har fler sprickor uppkommit på sydsidan än på nordsidan vilket antyder att solen har stor påverkan på dessa broar, eftersom det är den enda faktor som skiljer sig väsWhen the temperature changes in the environment the temperature will also change in a structure. Complex interactions of climate factors affect the temperature changes. When the temperature is varied in a material it will expand or contract, and movements will be produced. If the movements are prevented, stresses may be induced which can contribute to cracks in the structure. Severe cracks have be
Popular Abstract in Swedish Två mobila system, ett svenskt och ett italienskt, för undersökning av historiska fasader har använts för att undersöka möjligheten till identifiering av olika material, biologisk påväxt och faktorer som i framtiden kan leda till nedbrytning av kulturhistoriskt värdefulla monument. Undersökningarna visade på möjligheter att genomföra analyser av ytor med hjälp av fluore
To improve the properties and functionality of starch, it is important to understand the physicochemical and structural characteristics as raw material, after being modified to increase its characteristics and/or during changes due to the processing conditions. For this reason, the objective of the present thesis is to improve the understanding of characteristics and molecular properties like mola
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vårt samhälle är beroende av ett stabilt klimat och förändringar av temperaturen påverkar direkt ekonomisk aktivitet. Att vår hälsa påverkas negativt och att vi har svårare att arbeta produktivt under värmestress är ingenting nytt utan det har studerats ingående. Dock i det samtida sammanhang som överskuggas av ökad värmestress på grund av klimatförändringarna, saknas m

Popular Abstract in Swedish Komplementsystemet är ett system bestående av cirka 35 proteiner i blodet och på cellytor, som ingår i kroppens medfödda immunförsvar. Det är ett mycket viktigt men också explosivt system, potentiellt skadligt för kroppens egna celler, som kräver strikt reglering. Denna avhandlings huvudaktör, C4b-bindande protein (C4BP), nedreglerar komplementsystemet. C4BP har en ovanThe subject of this thesis is plasma protein C4b-binding protein (C4BP). C4BP is an important regulator of the classical pathway of the complement system, a cascade-like system comprised of over 35 proteins, which partakes in the defence against micro-organisms and is involved of clearance of immune-complexes and apoptotic cells. C4BP contains two different types of subunits, seven identical alfa-
In today’s society people are overwhelmed with information about different kinds of heating systems. The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that impact households when they make decisions on heating systems, and also how households value different types of information on the subject. Four Swedish municipalities were chosen for closer examination. Municipal energy advisors and represe
The Montreal Protocol is working. Concentrations of major ozone-depleting substances in the atmosphere are now decreasing, and the decline in total column amounts seen in the 1980s and 1990s at mid-latitudes has not continued. In polar regions, there is much greater natural variability. Each spring, large ozone holes continue to occur in Antarctica and less severe regions of depleted ozone continu
"Härdelin the Hymnist" Alf Härdelin (1927–2014) was a Swedish theologian and medievalist. In addition to a large academic output, he wrote eleven original hymns and translated 213 from Latin or German into Swedish. This article begins by showing how integrated this activity was with Härdelin’s theological work: both as an academic and as a hymnist he followed the Dominican adage, contemplata alii
Taxation is a key activity of any state and a constant point of political struggle. The structure of taxation is continuously changing and evolving, and its size has grown dramatically during the last two hundred years. Many of the cross-national patterns we observe today are the result of centuries old conflicts and challenges, hence we need to take history into account if we want to understand c
Bostads- och servicesektorn utgör 40 procent av Sveriges totala energianvändning. Endast småhus står för drygt 8 procent. Energin som används i småhus går i huvudsak till uppvärmning och varmvatten. 2020 var direktverkande el den vanligaste energikällan för uppvärmning av småhus (Energimyndigheten 2022). Elpriset har stigit kraftigt under det senaste året. Detta kan eventuellt ha påverkan på boendThe building and service sector consume 40 percent of Sweden’s total energy use. Which of only single-family houses are responsible for 8 percent. The energy used in single family houses mainly goes to heating and hot water. 2020 the most common energy source for heating these buildings was electricity (Energimyndigheten 2022). The energy prices have increased heavily during the last year. This ma
Den 9 april 2025 presenterade Miniminivåutredningen sitt delbetänkande SOU 2025:31, i vilket förslag bland annat lämnades på begränsningar i rätten till offentligt biträde i asylprocessen. Förslagen har sin grund i EU:s migrations- och asylpakt, mer specifikt den nya asylprocedurförordningen. Medan förordningen förespråkar en effektiv process som värnar om de asylsökandes rättigheter, är förslagenOn April 9th 2025, the so called Miniminivåutredningen presented its report SOU 2025:31, in which proposals were made, among other things, on restrictions on the right to be represented by a public legal counsellor through-out the asylum process. The proposals are based on the EU’s Migration and Asylum Pact, and more specifically the new Asylum Procedure Regulation. While the Regulation intends on
The severe decline in olive oil production recorded in the last years is having an economic impact on many Mediterranean countries. The aim of this MSc thesis is to predict the olive yield by means of satellite vegetation indices and meteorological data mostly retrieved by satellite remote sensors. Estimating olive yield production using remote sensing data is reasonably new as few scientific pape
