Vägen till högre utbildning.

I år 2023 är 150 år sedan som riksdagen beslutade att öppna upp de svenska universiteten för kvinnliga studenter. Artikeln belyser vägen dit och hur de första kvinnorna togs emot och vilka hinder som kvarstod även efter beslutet 1873.

Production of Rhizopus oryzae lipase using optimized Yarrowia lipolytica expression system

Yarrowia lipolytica is an alternative yeast for heterologous protein production. Based on auto-cloning vectors, a set of 18 chromogenic cloning vectors was developed, each containing one of the excisable auxotrophic selective markers URA3ex, LYS5ex, and LEU2ex, and one of six different promoters: the constitutive pTEF, the phase dependent hybrid pHp4d, and the erythritol-inducible promoters from p

Roadmap on ferroelectric hafnia- and zirconia-based materials and devices

Ferroelectric hafnium and zirconium oxides have undergone rapid scientific development over the last decade, pushing them to the forefront of ultralow-power electronic systems. Maximizing the potential application in memory devices or supercapacitors of these materials requires a combined effort by the scientific community to address technical limitations, which still hinder their application. Bes

Nutritional, physicochemical, and sensory characterization of four common Northern European seaweed species intended for food

Seaweed is depicted as a future food in Western cultures, yet its introduction and expansion to new markets come with several challenges, including food neophobia and limited knowledge about its usability. To address these challenges, this study characterizes sensory perceptions, nutritional content, and physicochemical properties of four common northern European seaweed species, Saccharina latiss

High Current Density Vertical Nanowire TFETs With I₆₀ > 1 μ A/ μ m

We present experimental data for a vertical, 22-nm-diameter InAs/(In)GaAsSb nanowire Tunnel Field-Effect Transistor that exhibits the highest reported I60 of 1.2 μA/μm , paving the way for low power applications. The transistor reaches a minimum subthreshold swing of 43 mV/dec at VDS = 300 mV with a sub-60 mV/dec operation over a wide current range. Combined with a high transconductance of 205 μS/

Stochastic Analysis of Control Systems Subject to Communication and Computation Faults

Control theory allows one to design controllers that are robust to external disturbances, model simplification, and modelling inaccuracy. Researchers have investigated whether the robustness carries on to the controller’s digital implementation, mostly looking at how the controller reacts to either communication or computational problems. Communication problems are typically modelled using random

Risk of appendiceal malignancy in conservatively treated acute appendicitis

Background and aims: Appendectomy has historically been the standard treatment of acute appendicitis, but lately, conservative treatment of uncomplicated acute appendicitis with antibiotics has successfully been used in selected patients. Complicated acute appendicitis is often treated conservatively initially, but may benefit from interval appendectomy due to the higher risk ofappendiceal maligna

Personalized Seizure Detection Using Spiking Neural Networks

Around 50 million people worldwide suffer from Epilepsy, making it one of the most common neurological diseases. Epilepsy is characterized by sudden intermittent seizures, often imposing profound social and physical limitations. More importantly, the risk of premature death in these patients is up to three times that of the corresponding healthy population. It is estimated that 30% of the populati

Between Religious Studies, Religious Education, Teaching Education, and Religion and Education : Relationships, Opportunities, Tensions

The aim of the present paper is to explore the interrelated and complex relationships between religionsvetenskap (Religious Studies), religionskunskap (Religious Education) and religionsdidaktik (Religion and Education). After briefly outlining the concurrent developments of Religious Studies as a university discipline and Religion and Eudcation as a non-confessional school subject, both of which

Truths and myths about superfoods in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic

Nowadays, during the current COVID-19 pandemic, consumers increasingly seek foods that not only fulfill the basic need (i.e., satisfying hunger) but also enhance human health and well-being. As a result, more attention has been given to some kinds of foods, termed " superfoods," making big claims about their richness in valuable nutrients and bioactive compounds as well as their capability to prev

Emerging trends in the agri-food sector: Digitalisation and shift to plant-based diets

Our planet is currently facing unprecedented interconnected environmental, societal, and economic dilemmas due to climate change, the outbreak of pandemics and wars, among others. These global challenges pose direct threats to food security and safety and clearly show the urgent need for innovative scientific solutions and technological approaches. Backed by the current alarming situation, many fo

Implementation of relevant fourth industrial revolution innovations across the supply chain of fruits and vegetables : A short update on Traceability 4.0

Food Traceability 4.0 refers to the application of fourth industrial revolution (or Industry 4.0) technologies to ensure food authenticity, safety, and high food quality. Growing interest in food traceability has led to the development of a wide range of chemical, biomolecular, isotopic, chromatographic, and spectroscopic methods with varied performance and success rates. This review will give an

Identifying and Predicting Cybersecurity Threats in Industry 4.0 Based on the Motivations Towards a Critical Infrastructure

Industry 4.0 (I4.0) is an emerging concept describing the business setting application of a broad set of digitalisation technologies, connectivity, and automation. The most common critical infrastructure (CI) uses Industrial Control Systems (ICS) for operation and supervisory control. However, the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Internet of things (IoT) systems are examples of

An Assessment of Environmental Related Key Performance Indicators of the Chemical Industries

One of the most critical issues faced by chemical industries is reducing the environmental impact caused due to pollution, which has resulted in global warming and health issues. Most chemical industries monitor and use Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to control pollution, which is currently done by using various KPI's that are dependent on the product they are producing. Therefore, a study is c

Food processing 4.0: Current and future developments spurred by the fourth industrial revolution

“Food processing 4.0” concept denotes processing food in the current digital era by harnessing fourth industrial revolution (called Industry 4.0) technologies to improve quality and safety of processed food products, reduce production costs and time, save energy and resources, as well as diminish food loss and waste. Industry 4.0 technologies have been gaining great attention in recent years, revo

Towards digitalization of Malaysian medical facilities waste management

Medical waste is produced in huge quantities daily, and the increasing amount of it is a worldwide issue that makes managing medical waste more and more crucial. Leakage or improper use of medical waste can be harmful, risking the environment and human lives. The pandemic COVID-19 has challenged current practices with the increasing number of waste and the possibility of transferring the virus fro

Sustainability Assessment of Aerospace Manufacturing : An LCA-Based Framework

In this paper, a life cycle assessment (LCA)-based sustainability assessment framework is developed to estimate the environmental impact of production processes. The framework provides a methodical, context-independent, approach to carry out LCA studies. The framework sets guiding principles for products and key performance indicators (KPIs) selection and the associated data requirements in a reco
