Tuberculosis (TB) and other mycobacterial infections have become more difficult to treat since the strains need to be screened for resistance. Furthermore, the half-year long treatment time could harm hepatocytes as a side effect of the treatment. This calls for discovery of new compounds for a successful treatment. One such promising peptide was recently discovered and called NZX. In this study
Höganäs AB is asking for a way to attach Somaloy® components onto aluminum in electric motors. Gluing, Crimping and Clamping are the attachment methods that are investigated.

A method for syllable classification of the Great Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus arundinaceus) has been studied and tested. This method uses multitapers in order to calculate the ambiguity domain and extracting features. Inspired by this technique four new methods, that build on extracting features from the ambiguity function using different types of multitaper kernels and noise reduction techniques,
There is a clearly visible dichotomy in architectural sustainability approaches today. While there are several housing solutions available fulfilling sustainability criteria, most of these follow the high-tech industrial approach. In main-stream architecture these are often referred to as “green” or “sustainable” architecture. “Natural” or “regenerative” building practices stand at the other end o
The demand of healthy functional lungs is increasing, requiring a greater need of knowledge about lung tissue regeneration and repair. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) – polysaccharide sidechains found on proteins in the extracellular matrix (ECM) – are believed to be involved in several processes in the lung including cell proliferation, cell differentiation and tissue regeneration. We have developed a
As greenhouse gas emissions are becoming a source of concern renewable fuels are becoming more and more interesting. Methanol is one such fuel. The main benefit of methanol is that it can be produced in two potentially carbon neutral ways. It can be produced from many sources of biomass, including wood, which makes it attractive in Sweden. In a long-term perspective it can also be produced from el
Purpose – The existing literature of open innovation (OI) has focused mainly on large companies and few on SMEs, leaving start-ups with scarce analysis of the use of OI. This paper aims to close that gap and contribute to a better understanding of what drives start-ups to open for innovation, how they use it and comprehend what challenges and benefits OI brings to start-ups.

Vi syftar till att undersöka hur relationella skillnader i två olika anställningsrelationer utspelar sig i praktiken. Sambandet mellan identifierade teman som målsättningar, upplevd rättvisa och individers engagemang undersöks i vår specifika kontext. Vi argumenterar för att tidigare forskning lagt för lite fokus på kombinationen av ett psykologiskt och ekonomiskt perspektiv på anställningsrelatio
