In recent years, microwave applications in the food products have attracted increasing attention by the food packaging industry and the consumers due to their convenience, low energy and water usage and short processing time giving them a sustainable advantage over competing technologies. In-pack pasteurization represents one of the fastest developing technologies in preparing and delivering safe

Article Processing Charges (APC) are a way for publishers of Open Access (OA) journals to make profit. Via the Bibsam consortium, Swedish universities have made deals with publishers that allow researchers to publish Open Access at reduced or no cost. For journals not included in these agreements, some universities have central publication funds that are meant to cover APC’s. This master’s thesis

N-(9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-diphenylalanine (Fmoc-FF) is a combination of two phenylalanine amino acids connected by a peptide bond and protected by a Fmoc group. This dipeptide exhibits unique self-assembly properties, forming a variety of structures such as nanofibers, nanotubes, and hydrogels. The aim of this project is to investigate the structure and phase behaviour of self-assembled Fmoc-

Image registration of X-ray images is used to correctly align the patient before the cancer tumour is treated with sets of high dose X-ray radiation. Before the first treatment, a simulated X-ray image is taken showing the best possible localisation of the tumour. From then on, after each of the radiation treatments of the tumour, a low dose of the X-ray theurapeutic radiation is used to take an i

Salt inducible kinase 2 (SIK2) is found abundantly in adipose tissue and may have a role in the development of diabetes. SIK2 is downregulated in insulin-resistant and obese individuals, thereby providing a new potential target for therapeutic solutions. Dysfunctional adipose tissue is observed in obesity and this is correlated with impaired insulin signalling, which might contribute to imbalanced

Syfte: Att analysera om det finns finansiella incitament för bolag att upprätta kvalitativa hållbarhetsrapporter, genom att jämföra kvaliteten på hållbarhetsrapporter med lönsamhet hos svenska publika företag på Stockholmsbörsen som omfattas av 6 kap. 10 § ÅRL år 2018, men som inte hållbarhetsrapporterade före 2016. Metod: Kvantitativ studie med deduktiv ansats där den statistiska metoden utgörs Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to examine if there are financial purposes for companies to create sustainability reports, by comparing the quality of sustainability reports with profitability for swedish public companies, listed on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm, that are subject to the 6 chapter 10 § Annual Accounts Act by the year of 2018, that earlier haven’t created a sustainability report.

Regeringens tillåtlighetsprövningar i miljömål har funnits sedan 1970-talet i svensk rätt. Motiven bakom lagen var att regeringen ansågs som det enda organet som kunde väga olika samhällsintressen vid prövningen samtidigt som det gick att utkräva politiskt ansvar från dem. Fallet ”Preemraff”, där regeringen först efter dom från första instansen förbehåller sig rätten att tillåtlighetspröva tillsPermissibility trials from the government have been a part of the Swedish environmental law system since the 1970s. The motives behind the law were that the government was the only part of the legal system who was able to consider different social interest in their trials and that you could make them politicly responsible for their decisions. In the case called “Preemraff”, the government decide

Nödvärn fungerar i den svenska rättsordningen som en viktig säkerhetsventil för att man ska kunna försvara sig från brottsliga angrepp. På ett eller annat sätt har en sådan möjlighet alltid funnits, men den nödvärnsrätt som liknar dagens kom till när den infördes i 1864 års strafflag. Vid samma tillfälle blev det även brottsligt att misshandla sin fru för att styra familjen. I samhällsutvecklingenThe right to self defense from criminal attacks is a vital function of the Swedish justice system. In one way or another, such a right has always existed, but the legal self defense, with similarities to the current day one, was first seen in the criminal law of 1864. At the same time, it became illegal to use abuse against one’s spouse to control the family. In the progression of society since th

I den exklusiva ekonomiska zonen har kuststaten suveräna rättigheter att utforska, exploatera, bevara och hantera de naturliga resurserna, levande eller icke-levande. Detta stadgas i de Förenta Nationernas Havsrättskonvention. I den exklusiva ekonomiska zonen har även andra stater vissa friheter, som typiskt sett åtnjuts på de fria haven, där ingen stat har jurisdiktion bortsett från flaggstaten oIn the exclusive economic zone a coastal State enjoys the sovereign rights to explore, exploit, conserve and manage the natural resources, whether living or non-living. That is provided by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Also in the exclusive economic zone other states enjoy freedoms typically known for the high seas, were no state has jurisdiction apart from the flag State of

Insamling och hantering av personlig data har idag utvecklats till en lönsam företagsmodell, där personuppgifter beskrivs som den nya oljan och framtidens valuta. Det uppstår en balansgång mellan vanligt förekommande kommersiella intressen och vikten av ett effektivt skydd för enskildas personliga integritet. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om det finns ett effektivt dataskydd inom EuroparätThe collection and use of personal data have become a profitable business model of today, where personal information is described as the new oil and the currency of the future. A need to balance between commercial interests and the importance of efficient privacy protection emerges. The purpose of this essay is to examine if efficient data protection within European Law exist. A traditional EU leg

Pseudomyogenic haemangioendothelioma (PHE) is an intermediate malignant vascular soft tissue tumour primarily affecting children and young adults. The molecular basis of this neoplasm is unknown. We here used chromosome banding analysis, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), mRNA sequencing, RT-PCR and quantitative real-time PCR on a series of morphologically well-characterized PHEs to show t

During the past 40 years brain tissue grafting techniques have been used both to study fundamental neurobiological questions and to treat neurological diseases. Motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease are largely due to degeneration of midbrain dopamine neurones. Because the nigrostriatal pathology is relatively focused anatomically, Parkinson's disease is considered the ideal candidate for brain re

Diagnosis of acute arterial mesenteric ischemia in the early stages is now possible using modern computed tomography with intravenous contrast enhancement and imaging in the arterial and/or portal phase. Most patients have acute superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion, and a large proportion of these patients will develop peritonitis prior to mesenteric revascularization, and explorative laparo

Purpose of the research: The present government in the Netherlands intends to realize a substantial growth of wind energy before 2020, both onshore and offshore. Wind turbines, when positioned in the neighborhood of residents may cause visual annoyance and noise annoyance. Studies on other environmental sound sources, such as railway, road traffic, industry and aircraft noise show that (long-term)

A combination of acoustic trapping and impedance spectroscopy for micrometer-sized objects is here presented for the first time. Acoustic trapping has proven to be a well-functioning method for non-contact immobilization and positioning of particles or cells in microfluidic channels. The combination with impedance spectroscopy allows for simultaneous electrical measurements on the trapped objects.

This thesis explores the name, naming and naming politics in three poetic texts which exhibit a concern with the normative force of language: Cristina Peri Rossi’s Evohé (1971), Julia Álvarez’ The Other Side/El otro lado (1995) and Ana Arzoumanian’s (2006) Juana I. In Evohé the woman-body and the woman-word collide and penetrate each other; in The Other Side/ El otro lado the English code conflict
