Malaria is a well-known disease and affects large regions around the world. Medicines used for treatment already exist, but due to increasing resistance and unpleasant side effects it has become critical to develop new drug candidates. Several palladium complexes were synthesised and studied to understand their properties for treating malaria. The ligands and the complexes were synthesised and cha

Tuberculosis (TB) affects millions of people annually and remains one of the leading causes of infectious diseases-related deaths in the world. Current anti-TB treatment consists of a prolonged regimen of multiple antibiotics, which effectively eliminates the bacteria when it is not antibiotic resistant. However, large proportions of the TB-treated individuals experience persistent pulmonary dysfu

Title: The Paradox of Gender Equality and Female Entrepreneurship; A study seeking to elucidate the perceptions and value systems that underlie entrepreneurial activity among women in Sweden Seminar date: January 10th, 2024 Course: FEKH99, Bachelor Degree Project in Entrepreneurship and Innovation Management, Business administration, Undergraduate level, 15 University Credit Points Authors: Stella

This thesis investigates the profitability of converting microalgae into biofuel using hydrothermal liquefaction the goal is to produce 100 000 tons of bio-oil each year. It explores various microalgae species and cultivation methods, identifying Chlorella vulgaris with a rotating attached biofilter as the optimal choice due to its high biomass concentration, eliminating the need for dewatering an

The thesis aims to develop knowledge of the physics and thermodynamics behind a nonlinearity in an air cooling system for an plastic extruder machine. To accomplish this, both nonlinear and linearized models were set up in Matlab and Simulink environments based on the laws of physics and thermodynamics. Simulations were run to achieve and analyze step responses, and different PI control structures

The emergence of artificial intelligence, especially machine-learning methods, challenges the set of legal guarantees put in place in Europe to combat discrimination and ensure equal treatment. This paper will focus on cases of algorithmic discrimination in the context of recruitment as a business practice. Particular in the field of recruitment of workers, which has always been a field where EU n

The aim of the thesis is to investigate and implement an algorithm that can automate the porting of the layout from one technology node to another technology node. The layout optimization of any design block can be implemented for better performance. The primary task of the project is to develop a tool that can optimize and port the complete layout design that reduces the time and effort of manual

An interesting type of quasi-particles in solid-state materials are the so-called levitons. These are single- electron excitations above the Fermi-level that do not produce any hole states when carrying an integer multiple of the elementary charge. Levitons are produced when a quantum conductor is subjected to a time-dependent voltage pulse with a Lorentzian shape. The parameters of the voltage pu

This thesis focuses on the integration of management control system (MCS) and sustainability in companies. Some literatures showed a disconnection between the efficiency of sustainability as a success strategy and management control systems. To research this, we aim at answer two questions. What are the challenges that the companies were faced with when they tried to integrate MCS and sustainabili

An experimental campaign took place at the Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) in the summer of 2020. Its goal was to study the exotic modes of decay of neutron-deficient nuclei located near 56Ni. For this thesis, the part of interest from the campaign is the experiment studying the fusion-evaporation reaction resulting from the collision of high-energy nuclei of 36Ar and a 24Mg target, creating exc

Introduction: Urocanate reductases (UrdA) are enzymes in the gut microbiota that catalyse the production of imidazole propionate (ImP), which is implicated in diseases like type 2 diabetes, and therefore it is of medical interest to co-crystallize the protein with new potential ligands in order to develop inhibitors, which can be used to lower the ImP concentration in the blood. Background: Sever

The success of a company increasingly depends on the efficiency and effectiveness on its activities along the product life cycle. In the effort of optimizing its activities, companies must integrate themselves. Due to the significance packaging has within many of these activities, it is of utmost importance to integrate product and packaging development activities in order to optimize processes.
