Microfluidics is a field which has the potential to revolutionize medical diagnostics. The ability to sort and analyse cells by the use of portable handheld devices has the potential to enable sensitive devices for point-of-care diagnostics. This could play a major role in diagnosis of a wide range of diseases which are prevalent in remote areas in developing countries where a majority of the peop
När Lissabonfördraget trädde i kraft den 1 december 2009 medförde det viktiga förändringar inom EU:s utrikespolitik. Målet var att öka EU:s samstämmighet i dess externa relationer i syfte att stärka EU:s roll som global aktör. Det nya fördraget inrättade en hög representant för den gemensamma utrikes-och säkerhetspolitiken (HR) samt en assisterande utrikestjänst (EEAS). De nya funktionerna är histThe entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty in December 2009 brought several important changes in the field of EU Foreign Policy. The goal was to enhance coherence in EU external relations to strengthen the role of the EU as a global actor. The creations of the High Representative (HR) of the Union on Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the assisting European External Action Service (EEAS) are t
The three-dimensional structure of protein is encoded in its amino acid sequence. Modern structure prediction algorithms make it possible to predict the structure of small proteins using sequence information alone. We used the Fold-and-Dock algorithm, which is part of the Rosetta macromolecular modeling suite, for de novo structure prediction of coiled-coil proteins. Members of this protein family
The COVID-19 pandemic had harsh consequences on human health and society across the globe. In addition to health effects, the pandemic also influenced people’s values, concerns, and ethics due to lockdowns and general limitations in societal activities. In this study, we examined changes in the relationship between people and nature caused by COVID-associated stress, as well as its consequences on
Under the influence of neo-liberal ideals such as New Public Management, the ownership, operation, and maintenance of many Critical Infrastructures have been divided among an increasing number of public as well as private actors. Limited research has investigated the role of this institutional fragmentation for shaping resilience of Critical Infrastructures, especially in relation to recovery afte
Socio-economic shocks, technogenic catastrophes, and armed conflicts often have drastic impacts on local and regional food security through disruption of agricultural production and food trade, reduced investments, and deterioration of land and infrastructure. Recently, more research has focused on the effects of armed conflict on land systems, but still little is known about the processes and outSocio-economic shocks, technogenic catastrophes, and armed conflicts often have drastic impacts on local and regional food security through disruption of agricultural production and food trade, reduced investments, and deterioration of land and infrastructure.

The purpose of the study is to investigate how current laws consider the introduction of a circular economy (CE) and reuse in the procurement stage. The study also aims to investigate what legal support is missing for reused materials to be used more than it does today. The work also aims to study the extent to which public clients currently work with reuse. In addition to that, the study investig
Summary: The purpose of school essay is to investigate the outlook of Staffanstorp´s youth in private finances. Our target groups are all 9 graders who attend at the three different municipal schools in Staffanstorp´s nine-year compulsory school. In our empirical study have we used both qualitative and quantitative strategies for the reason that they complement one another and seize the subject fi
Last three decades, China has experienced a stunning economic development, which has transformed the whole county on various levels. Until now, China has followed investment and export led growth and has become the world’s largest manufacturer. However, under the veil of rapid growth, social and economic imbalances have emerged causing a number of serious challenges facing China. Moreover, the Chi
For some time now, the world in general and international law in particular have witnessed one and the same widespread call for action. Both public and private interests claim that present-day standards and technology have proven insufficient for saving the natural environment. From this claim has emerged a call that entreats us to approach the problem of the deteriorating natural environment by i
Premiär 14 oktober 2024 Travelling and seeing things anew were essential to the writing of one of the most beloved and translated Swedish poets of modern times, Tomas Tranströmer. Before receiving the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2011, he had already been translated into around 60 languages and had travelled the world to meet his audience in person. Alongside his writing, he was an engaged and att

Popular Abstract in English People normally associate hemoglobin with blood. It is true that the iron in the center of the hemoglobin molecule makes it excellent at carrying oxygen in the bloodstream from the lungs to every part of the body. However, seventy five years ago a hemoglobin was found in a plant. And plants do not have blood. So what is hemoglobin doing in plants? What are its functionsHemoglobins (Hb) are usually associated with blood in humans. However, these proteins are widely distributed among living organisms. In plants the most known group are the leghemoglobins. Still, other Hbs that not participate in symbiosis are also found. They are known as nonsymbiotic Hbs (nsHbs). NsHbs are divided into class-1 and class-2. In this thesis three nsHbs from sugar beet (BvHb1-1, BvHb
Popular Abstract in English Alcohols and aldehydes are used in the chemical industry largely as a starting material for the manufacture of a wide range of products. They are also used as such in various industrial applications. The flexibility is due mainly to the functionalities of the alcohols and aldehydes being hydroxylic and carbonylic, respectively. Much interest is directed nowadays at convNowadays, transition metal oxide catalysts are employed to a large extent in many chemical processes for the selective production of chemicals and intermediates. Although metal oxides are mostly known as oxidation catalysts, they can successfully catalyze a wide range of reactions, such as dehydration. Two different processes have been studied in the present work: the selective oxidation of methan
The question and purpose of this thesis is to evaluate whether the cooperation within the Schengen Agreement regarding asylum politics is common or shared? By common is meant that the member states act in common and follow the regulation jointly. Whereas, shared is defined as a regulation which provide room for interpretation and implementation on national level. This thesis is based on literature
The signaling within and between cells in biology is governed by molecular recognition between natural or synthetic ligands and proteins. This thesis project aimed to investigate the thermodynamic properties of specific interaction between synthetic ligands and galectin proteins. The choice of galectins as model proteins resides in the availability of applicability in a full range of complementary
