This report is a continuation of the report, Crystal nucleation of poorly soluble drugs, I Method development and initial results. [1] The aim of the studies was to experimentally investigate the crystallization process. The focus has been on crystal growth, crystal dissolution and primary nucleation. For three model substances, Bicalutamide, Linaprazan and Felodipine, experiments have been carrie
This thesis/project work was initiated to establish a fast, < 10ms communication speed between ‘National’s Instrument Compact RIO’ which is a reconfigurable embedded control and acquisition system and ‘Vacon’s Frequency Converter’ to have command over an electric machine in a dynamic fashion. Task also included setting up a test rig, where parallel hybrid truck platform can be tested. Communicatio
In the thesis, first the author discussed whether same-sex marriage is a human right, and why it is a human right. After that, the author argued against those obstacles, such as religious or cultural objections, that denying such a human right, and the last part the author tried to analyse why there is a gap between the ideal and reality human right, especially in the same-sex marriage issue and w
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Skåne skiljer sig i många avseenden från övriga landet och variationerna i landskapets topografi och geologi är stora. Skåne rymmer därför många olika naturtyper. Tryck- och tänjningsrörelser i berggrunden har resulterat i de stora horstarna (”åsarna”), som genom förkastningsrörelser höjts över omgivande berggrund och bildar stora, långsträckta ryggar i landskapeThe Colonus Shale Trough (CST) is an important tectonic entity in the Sorgenfrei-Tornquist Zone (STZ) in Skåne, southernmost Sweden. The fill comprises a Cambrian through Silurian succession dominated by fine-grained clastic sediments and subordinate limestone. Three deep wells were drilled in 2009–2010 by Shell in order to investigate the possibilities of extracting shale gas from the Cambrian-Or
Analyzing Baltic trade pattern confirms that the economic transition, following the fall of the Soviet Union, largely involves a regional integration process with western Europe. This thesis examines the trade patterns of the three Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) focusing on the regional integration process with the EU. The objective is to investigate the trade relations with the EU mem
In recent years, self-employment has emerged as an important avenue of economic livelihoods for immigrants in the western world, including the Chinese immigrants. The debate on immigrant self-employment has been widely discussed across academia and given a considerable attention by researchers, policymakers and governments. This study addresses the self-employment experience of Chinese immigrants
One of the essential engineer’s jobs is to achieve the most economical technical solutions. Weight optimization is important since it provides a structure that can carry the applied loads in addition to fulfilling the structural requirements. In this project, a Matlab-algorithm has been developed to find the optimum design of steel portal frames according to “Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures
Though the paradox between Human Rights and Intellectual Property Rights has been discussed, their relationship remains unclear. In this paper, to clarify the relationship between human rights and intellectual property rights in the process of globalization, I will examine the legislation and analyze the function of the legal regime we have today and present my arguments.
The restrictions on China´s capital account is the major restrictive factor for the international use of the RMB. The potential international status of the RMB must be included into the consideration by the monetary authority in designing the pace and form of liberalizing the restrictions, because, in general, the potential international status directly induces the potential benefits and risks. Th
Den här uppsatsen behandlar huruvida den Europeiska byrån för förvaltningen av det operativa samarbetet vid Europeiska Unionens medlemsstaters yttre gränser, Frontex, genom sitt arbete orsakar hinder för flyktingars möjlighet att utnyttja sin rättighet att söka asyl. Då den Europeiska Unionen (EU) har ett pågående arbete för att harmonisera de nationella asylsystemen i medlemsstaterna blir det intThis paper addresses whether the European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders, Frontex, through their work causes obstacles for refugees in exercising their right to seek asylum. As the European Union (EU) has an ongoing effort to harmonize the national asylum systems of the Member States it is interesting to examine whether the system is coherent. Since bo
Oil has been for the past 50 years the most widely used energy source. That is because oil contains a lot of energy and is easy to transport and store. But the use of oil has drawbacks; it is believed to change the earth’s climate due to the combustion and the emissions of the green house gases. The particles from the combustion cause problems for the human health. Today Oil accounts for 33 % of t
In this thesis we introduce the notion of elliptic functions, and in particular Weierstrass' Elliptic Function, in order to define the modular function $\lambda$ on the upper half plane. We establish a group ismorphism between the unimodular transformations and $\Aut{\C\setminus\{0,1\}}$. In particular this gives two functional equations involving $\lambda$, and with these equations we show th
The phenomenological success of the Standard Model (SM), and its unification of the electromagnetic and weak forces has inspired the search for a Grand Unified Theory (GUT), that dynamically reduces to the SM at low energies. In this work, we consider one such GUT, based on the trinification model [SU(3)]³ with an additional local SU(2) family symmetry, that is then broken directly to the gauge sy
Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a non-selective cation channel that plays a significant role in pain, itch, and inflammatory conditions, and its activation is mediated by various electrophilic compounds and small molecules like menthol and camphor. Understanding the mechanism of activation and deactivation of TRPA1 is crucial for developing treatments for these conditions. This
The UK government is legally bound to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 as part of its actions to address climate change. One prominent method of decarbonisation is carbon capture and storage (CCS), slated for deployment in two industrial clusters by the mid-2020s. Fossil fuel companies are the operator behind the rollout of this technology: given the historical reticence of these co
Checkpoint inhibition is an attractive option for treating bladder cancer, the tenth most common type of cancer in the world. With currently approved drugs restricted to targeting the PD1/PD-L1 axis with limited response rates, finding alternative targets for manipulation of immune cells could improve the survival of bladder cancer patients. Recently, cell markers selectively expressed by immunosu
As part of a research grant aimed at producing chicken feed from the novel microalgae Scenedesmus sp., called the ReMAPP project, this thesis investigates opportunities to increase the conservation potential and protein digestibility utilizing solid-state lactic acid fermentation and commercial enzyme additives. The lactic acid fermentation mimics the traditional agricultural ensiling process, whe
The world’s largest democracy, India, is experiencing dwindling civic engagement. Amongst a plethora of factors that could explain this phenomenon, this study has chosen to explore the role of media. While causality isn’t assured, the profound capacity of the media to influence public opinion and action makes it a vital component in understanding public behaviours with respect to civic engagement.
