Intracellular of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus content in phytoplankton cells is traditionally measured using concentrates containing thousands to millions of cells. In the present study, we used a nuclear microprobe (NMP) to determine C, N and P concentrations in single filaments of 3 cyanobacteria species: Anabaena sp., Nodularia spumigena and Aphanizomenon flosaquae var. klebahnii isolated fr
Aims: To establish a cardiac cell culture model for simulated ischemia and reperfusion and in this model investigate the impact of simulated ischemia and reperfusion on expression of the calcium handling proteins FKBP12 and FKBP12.6, and intracellular calcium dynamics. Methods: HL-1 cell cultures were exposed to normoxia (as control), hypoxia, simulated ischemia (HEDA) or HEDA + reactive oxygen sp
The aim of this project is to explore and understand the combustion phenomenon in engines operating on gaseous fuels, and develop technologies as an alternative to the present diesel engine technologies for heavy duty applications; which are facing severe challenges like stringent emissions norms, high technology costs and unsustainable fuel supply. The studies presented in this thesis focus on th
Alterations in cellular pathways related to both endocrine and vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) may contribute to breast cancer progression. Inhibition of the elevated levels of these pathways is associated with clinical benefits. However, molecular mechanisms by which endocrine-related pathways and VEGF signalling cooperatively promote breast cancer progression remain poorly understood.
Vanadia was deposited on TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2, Nb2O5, and Ta2O5 supports using impregnation with either an oxalic acid solution of NH4VO3 or a solution of vanadyl acetylacetonate in ethanol. Prepared samples, with a nominal vanadia content in the range 0.5–2 monolayers, were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman and infrared spectroscopy, and were us
The present study is concerned with the preparation and characterisation of PEO/clay nanocomposites via melt-extrusion. Two different matrix molar masses of PEO were investigated as well as various types of the Cloisite clay range. PEO/Cloisite Na+ nanocomposites give rise to intercalated structures displaying only a moderate improvement of the mechanical properties at higher clay concentrations,
The NW-SE oriented Sorgenfrei–Tornquist Zone (STZ) has been thoroughly studied during the last 25 years, especially by means of well data and seismic profiles. We present the results of a first brittle tectonic analysis based on about 850 dykes, veins and minor fault-slip data measured in the field in Scania, including paleostress reconstruction. We discuss the relationships between normal and str
Denna studie undersöker hur syriska och ukrainska flyktingar är representerade i svensk media. Frågorna som ställs är hur medias representation av flyktingar 2015 och 2022 skiljer sig åt, och i vilken utsträckning de representeras som individer med mänskliga rättigheter. Studien använder sig av tryckta nyhetsartiklar publicerade av den svenska nyhetstidningen Aftonbladet under de två tidsperiodernThis study examines the ways Syrian and Ukrainian refugees are represented in Swedish media. The questions posed are how media’s representation of refugees in 2015 and 2022 differentiate, and to what extent they are represented as subjects of human rights. The study makes use of printed news articles published by the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet during the two time periods. The theoretical framew
The aim of this study is to investigate what causes the electoral success of different subtypes of populism through the ideational approach. Through a case study of Spain, the thesis examines the demand-side and supply-side factors that, together, favour the emergence of populist parties. In doing so, the thesis combines process-tracing method with quantitative data, providing a context-specific u
The pulmonary route has emerged as a promising strategy for delivering protein therapeutics, particularly for patients suffering from respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary infections. This project investigated the effect of operating parameters of a laboratory spray dryer on the characteristics of powders composed of Bovine Serum Albumin
Traditionally, sportswashing has served as a short-hand way to criticise and accuse non-democratic countries of strategically using investments in sport, sports clubs and sports events to distract from or cover up oppressive practices. This thesis investigates sportswashing through a case study of the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics and Paralympics, aiming to assess whether a practice commonly associat

Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality and are among the foremost causes of disability globally. CVD burden has continued to increase in most countries since 1990, with trends driven by changing exposures to harmful risk factors, population growth, and population aging. Objectives: We report estimates of global, national, and subnational CVD burden, including
BACKGROUND: Alzheimer's disease pathology can be accurately identified with blood biomarkers (core 1 biomarkers), including plasma p-tau217 tests. Biomarkers that change longitudinally after diagnosis (core 2 biomarkers) can increase confidence that Alzheimer's disease pathology is contributing to cognitive symptoms. Plasma eMTBR-tau243 reflects tau tangle pathology and is a promising core 2 bioma
BACKGROUND: A significant proportion of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients have characteristics of high-bleeding -risk (HBR). Their influence on ischaemic and bleeding-events in AMI all-comers is not well described.METHODS: AMI Patients in England and Wales (E&W), and Sweden between 2005 and 2019 were included from MINAP and SWEDEHEART national registries. Patients were categorised acc
A key aspect of imperialism, colonialism, and capitalism is frontier-making. Frontiers are essential for ambitions of appropriation and extraction. This paper explores the discursive practices of frontier-making in Scandinavia including the conceptualization of parts of this region as empty space and ripe for exploitation, as wild, unruly and in need of domestication. These regions have historical
OBJECTIVES: We assessed the prevalence of neurodevelopmental disabilities (NDDs; cognition, cerebral palsy, vision/hearing, epilepsy), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), developmental coordination disorder (DCD), behavior problems, and multimorbidity in a national cohort of children born extremely preterm (EPT, <27-week gestation) to provide a comprehe
