New therapies, based on gene transfer and protein delivery, require a better understanding of the basic mechanisms of macromolecular membrane transport. We have studied cellular uptake of macromolecular polyanions, i.e. DNA and glycosaminoglycans, and a polybasic HIV-Tat derived peptide (GRKKRRQRRRPPQC), using fluorescence assisted cell sorting and confocal fluorescence microscopy. The Tat peptide
Begreppet normprövning avser en prövning av om en underordnad norm är förenlig med en överordnad norm i en normhierarki. Uppsatsen undersöker hur de svenska domstolarnas normprövningsrätt har sett ut sedan den tillkom under 1900-talet fram till idag, med ett övergripande syfte att belysa den förändring som skett under tidsperioden. Före 1900-talet fanns ingen normprövningsrätt i de svenska domstoThe term judicial review refers to the trial of whether a lower ranked norm is compatible with a higher ranked norm in a hierarchy of norms. This essay examines the development of the Swedish courts’ right to practice judicial review with a starting point in the 20th century, when the courts started to practice the concept, until today. The general purpose is to highlight the changes that have tak
Background: The aim of this study was to explore if a course consisting of lectures combined with simulator training in coronary angiography (CA) could accelerate the early learning curve when performing CA on patients. Knowledge in performing CA is included in the curriculum for the general cardiologist. The method, according to American College of Cardiology and European Society of Cardiology gu
Uppsatsen analyserar samspelet mellan rätten till dataportabilitet enligt EU:s dataskyddsförordning (GDPR) med skyddet för företagshemligheter enligt företagshemlighetsdirektivet. Syftet är att undersöka hur dess två regelverk påverkar varandra och hur en balans kan uppnås mellan individens rätt till sin data och företagens behov av att skydda känslig information. Uppsatsen klargör vad rätten tillThe thesis analyzes the interplay between the right to data portability under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the protection of trade secrets under the Trade Secrets Directive. The aim is to examine how these two frameworks interact with each other and how a balance can be achieved between an individual's right to their data and the need for businesses to protect sensitive
In an increasingly satiated fashion market where products often resemble each other, storytelling has emerged as a key strategy for differentiation, emotional engagement and brand loyalty. This thesis explores how storytelling is used as a strategic tool in brand building within the fashion industry, using the Swedish premium rand ATP Atelier as a case study. Through a qualitative research approac
Nature has been recognized as a rich source of potentially useful chemicals. Throughout the years, phytochemical studies have led to the discovery of an enormous number of natural products, their chemical diversity is unique and many of them possess various biological activities. As a contribution, this thesis presents the results obtained from the phytochemical study of four Bolivian plants. Sene
Uppsatsen behandlar och analyserar delar av lagförslaget om återkallelse av svenskt medborgarskap som presenteras i 2023-års fri- och rättighetskommittés betänkande Några frågor om grundläggande fri- och rättigheter (SOU 2025:2). Fokus ligger på förhållandet mellan orubblighetsprincipen hos gynnande förvaltningsbeslut och den föreslagna återkallelsemöjligheten, samt på tolkningen av rekvisiten ”orThis thesis is an analysis of a legislative proposal presented in an official inquiry from 2025 about fundamental freedoms and rights. The proposal suggests that an opportunity to revoke the Swedish citizenship should exist in the Swedish constitution, something that is not possible with today’s legislation. The acquisition of citizenship through naturalization is an administrative de- cision tha
This article explores the potential for just knowledge production in Urban Living Labs (ULLs) by foregrounding epistemic justice. Drawing on autoethnographic and ethnographic methods, it examines how testimonial and hermeneutical injustices shape the formation, implementation, and dissemination phases of EU-funded, research-led ULLs. Findings show that funding structures, academic framings, and di
This dissertation examines the Fireburn revolt of 1878 on St. Croix in the Danish West Indies as both a historical event and a site of ongoing meaning-making. Rather than approaching Fireburn solely as a moment of post-emancipation labor unrest, the study investigates how the revolt has been archived, mediated, represented, and remembered across time and space, from the late nineteenth century to
High plasma levels of oestrogens are associated with increased breast cancer risk. If smoking, as has been suggested, have both a tumour initiating mutagenic effect and a protective anti-oestrogenic effect, one would assume that smokers who give up smoking have the highest incidence of breast cancer. This was evaluated in the follow-up of a cohort of 10,902 women of whom 4,359 were premenopausal.
Aim: The present investigation was designed to evaluate the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of adolescents with asthma between the age of 16 and 21, when they are transferred from paediatric to adult care. Methods: In this prospective study, 156 teenagers (69 females) with asthma were screened employing spirometry, a histamine challenge, skin prick test for allergy and filled out the 'Liv
Since November 2012 all citizens in Uppsala County in Sweden have access to their medical record on the internet sight “my health contacts”. This is the first step in a EU deployment- project where a total of 12 different eHealth services will be launched over time. The IT director of the county has engaged himself in the idea of medical records and other eHealth services since 1997 and has had se
In this work we have investigated face verification based on deep representations from Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to find an accurate and compact face descriptor trained only on a restricted amount of face image data. Transfer learning by fine-tuning CNNs pre-trained on large-scale object recognition has been shown to be a suitable approach to counter a limited amount of target domain da
Med en ökad internationell handel krävs i större omfattning trygga säkerheter för borgenärer. Vanliga sådana är äganderättsförbehåll och säkerhetsöverlåtelser som används frekvent internationellt. Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda dessa säkerhetsrätter med avseende på den svenska internationella privaträtten. För att utreda detta används en praxis- och doktrininriktad rättsdogmatisk metod. Det konstWith a growing international trade globally, the demand for collateral for creditors increases. Non-possessory security interests, more specifically conditional sales with reservation of title by the seller and security transfers of ownership are commonly used internationally. The purpose of this essay is to investigate what these non-possessory security interests mean in relation to Swedish priva
Läkemedelsmarknaden är uppbyggd runt företag, så kallade originalföretag, som utvecklar nya läkemedel och patenterar dessa. Patent är viktigt eftersom det ger originalföretagen en tidsbegränsad monopolistisk marknadsställning. De har därigenom möjlighet att genom stora marknadsvinster få tillbaka investeringarna som gjorts för att ta fram nya läkemedel. Patent ger också incitament till fortsatt foThe pharmaceutical market is based on companies, called originators, who develop new drugs and patent them. Patents are important since they allow the originators a time-limited monopolistic market position. The originators then have the opportunity to enjoy significant market profits to cover the costs for the development of a new drug. Patents are also an incentive for continued research and dev
Interpreting EEG measurements is of great relevance, both for developing underlying neuroscientific theory and improving existing applications. In this study, two networks with different approaches to time-frequency analysis and feature selection are compared on simulated and real data for semantic and emotional perception. The first network uses the Morlet wavelet transform to achieve adaptable f
The aim of this study is to analyze how the music educational program El Sistema at the Malmö School of Arts is portrayed in media outlets and in official documents (20112017). This is done through a critical ideology analysis of main strategy-documents produced by key actors, as well as a theoretical framework constructed from critical theory concerning ideology. The result shows that El Sistem
