Induced Cell Aging by Radiation Aging is a natural phenomenon that affects almost all living organisms and brings with it an array of disease. In humans, aging is in part due to shortening of one’s telomeres. Telomeres are sequences of DNA at the end of our chromosomes that do not code for any genetic information. Thus, they can serve as protection, non-coding DNA taking damage that would otherwi
Over recent decades, use of insecticides to protect plants from pests and harmful insects have increased manyfold. Neonicotinoid insecticides, such as Imidacloprid (IMI) acts as partial agonists on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors which are widely present in both the central and peripheral nervous system of insects. Pollinators like Eristalis tenax are frequently exposed to these pesticides but h
In the contemporary global context, the global focus on reducing environmental impacts in any formats has intensified. This study intends to assess the environmental impacts and life cycle costs associated with the A1-A5 stages (production and construction stages) of the Köping Port project and eight additional proposed scenarios. The Solidification/ Stabilization method along with the in-situ tec
Based on the European commission, climate change has become a serious threat for all aspects of our lives, urgent action needs to be taken. All the industries need to monitor their contributions, among them the building industry has the highest emission (European Commission) This study aims to compare energy efficiency and global warming potential (GWP fossil) emission in two ventilation systems i
This master’s thesis explored how the incorporation of cricket flour into a seitan-based product affected the physical properties and sensory attributes, including taste, texture, smelll and appearance, based on consumer sentiment. The project aimed to develop a high protein, “Entomo-vegan” base-product in collaboration with the food company Eat:em, using crickets as a sustainable protein source.
Bakgrund: I flera havsnära kommuner finns attraktiv mark med vattennära och central lokalisering som utnyttjas ineffektivt. Hur kan man ta tillvara på denna mark och hur har tidigare exploateringar genomförts? Utgångspunkten för studien var att hitta en bättre användning för mark i hamnområden vilket födde exjobbsidén. Svårigheter i exploateringsprojekt inom hamnområden har tidigare varit förknippBackground: In several seaside municipalities, there are attractive pieces of land with central location, near the water, that are inefficiently used. How is the land utilized and how has previous exploitation projects been carried out? The starting point for the study was to find a better use for ground areas in harbours, which gave birth to the idea for this master thesis. Difficulties in earlie
Optiskt stimulerad luminiscens, OSL, är en dateringsmetod som går att tillämpa på geologiska material med en ålder på ca 1 år-200 000 år. Dateringsmetoden grundar sig i att mineralkorn påverkas av naturlig, radioaktiv bakgrundsstrålning och därför ackumulerar energi inom sig, en process som endast sker under mörka/ svala förhållanden. Denna energi kan sedan frigöras genom att mineralkornet utsättsOptically stimulated luminescence, OSL, is a dating method applicable to geological material with an age of ca. 1 year-200 000 years. The dating method is based on the mineral grains reaction to natural, radioactive background radiation, and their ability to accumulate energy within themselves, a process that takes place continuously during dark/cool conditions. This energy may be released by subj
The aim of this thesis is to study the differences between cut marks made of stone and metal tools on animal bones. The focus will be on four sites in southern Sweden from the time period Late Bronze Age to Pre-Roman Iron Age. There have been previous studies about cut marks and the differences between them, but only a few focus on the same question as in this thesis; when do you start to see a di
I Sverige utgörs majoriteten av våra grundvattenresurser av isälvavlagringar i form av rullstensåsar och isälvsdeltan bestående av sand och grus. Isälvsavlagringarna är utan tvekan de mest betydelsefulla grundvattenförekomsterna för Sveriges dricksvattenförsörjning. Mer än 80% av landets alla vattenverk utnyttjar vatten från dessa resurser. En ojämn fördelning av grundvattenresurserna i kombinatioMost of Sweden’s groundwater resources are made up from glacifluvial deposits such as eskers and deltas that consist of sand and gravel. Glacifluvial deposits are certainly the most significant groundwater resources for drinking water supplies in Sweden. Groundwater resources are used to supply more than 80% of all the existing water plants nationwide. These important resources have an uneven dist
In recent years, history of knowledge has been established as a new theoretical field in the study of history. An important perspective in this field is the theory of circulation of knowledge, according to which knowledge should be studied through its movement between different spheres in society – movement that, furthermore, contributes to changing this knowledge. A promising line of inquiry in t
Gallium nitride (GaN) nanowires grown using catalyst-free metal organic vapor phase epitaxy were used as scanning tunneling microscope (STM) probes. The probes were prepared by placing a GaN nanowire on a tungsten STM probe using a nanomanipulator in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and welding them together using an electron beam induced platinum deposition. STM imaging was performed on indiuA microscopy field known as Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM), uses various methods to get a picture of a sample surface down to such a small scale that individual atoms can be observed. One particular method to perform such microscopy uses the phenomena of quantum tunneling rather than using visible light. This method is called Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and the way it works is extremely d
Det svenska energisystemet är under ständig utveckling. Länge har vatten- och kärnkraft varit grundstenarna i energiproduktionen, där kärnkraft utgjort den så kallade baslasten och vattenkraften reglerkraften. Då allt mer väderberoende vindkraftverk byggs förändras förutsättningarna för det svenska energisystemet, där en stor del av elproduktionen blir allt mer oförutsägbar på grund av variationerThe energy system in Sweden is currently under a great transformation, where the part of weather dependent energy sources, so called intermittent sources, like solar and wind power will get greater share in the total production of electricity while the production from stable energy sources like nuclear power is decreasing. For a long time, the nuclear power have been operating at baseload and the
Framställningen syftar till att belysa den svenska vårdnadslagslagstiftningen avseende bestämmanderätten vid gemensam vårdnad samt konsekvenserna av vårdnadshavares oförmåga att samarbeta i frågor som rör barns rätt till vård. Enligt svensk familjerätt är det bästa för barnet att stå under föräldrarnas gemensamma vårdnad samt att föräldrarna tar gemensamma beslut i alla frågor som rör barnet. NämnThe aim of this thesis is to analyse the current legislation regarding the right of decision under joint legal custody and the absence of legal rules in this area. The thesis furthermore analyses the consequences of the legal requirement of consensus between the parents for all decisions regarding the child, as well as the consequence of the parents inability to cooperate when it comes to the chil
Regler om budplikt infördes i NBK:s rekommendationer 1999. Efter en komplettering av takeover-direktivet blev det lag i LUA 2005. Företeelsen med budplikt på den svenska aktiemarknaden är således relativ ny, varför dess tillämpning och effekt är intressant att utreda. Budpliktsreglerna härstammar från Takeover Code i Storbritannien som uppstod efter att aktiemarknaden, under 1960-1970-talet, blev Mandatory bid rules were introduced in NBK´s recommendation in 1999, and then statutory in LUA in 2005, after an implementation of the takeoverdirective. The phenomenon with mandatory bid rules is therefore relatively new on the Swedish stock market why its application and impact is interesting to evaluate. Mandatory bid rules derives from the Takeover Code, from the UK, that emerged when the stoc

On the 1st of July 2009 the new and changed shoreline protection law took effect. The main purpose of the change was to promote rura
Introduction The global prevalence of HIV is still increasing and the AIDS epidemic has become an endemic disease for the inhabitants of South Africa. UN states that AIDS was the second leading cause of death in adolescents, age 10-19 on a worldwide basis. Southern Africa has the most densely HIV inhabited countries in the world. In Sweden the incidence rate of HIV is 4.3 cases per 100,000 lived p
I uppsatsen diskuteras och jämförs förslagsorganen och domarutnämning i Sverige (Domarnämnden), Norge (Innstillingsrådet for dommere) och Dan-mark (Dommerudnævnelsesrådet). Fokuset ligger främst på förslagsorganen, men i och med deras roll diskuteras även domarutnämningen i sin helhet. Särskild hänsyn tas till hur de förhåller sig till grundlag, maktfördelning och folksuveränitet. I uppsatsen besThis thesis is a comparative study between advisory councils and their roles in the appointment process of judges in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. The advisory councils are the Judges Proposals Board in Sweden (“Domarnämnden”), Judicial Appointments Council in Denmark (“Dommerudnævnelsesrådet”), and Judicial Appointment’s Board in Norway (“Innstillingsrådet for Dommere”). In the thesis, four quest
In January of 2021, the former President of the United States was banned from nearly every social media platform as a result of his actions during the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. After a year of development, Trump’s company, Trump Media and Technology Group, released Truth Social, a Trump-centric social media platform, in February 2022. Although Trump’s bans from social media have most
I arbetet undersöks vilka skyldigheter som vårdgivare har att tillhandahålla tolk inom hälso- och sjukvården när personer inte behärskar svenska, samt vilka som har möjlighet att bestämma om avgift för tolktjänster, utifrån svensk lagstiftning och internationell rätt.

Galaxies with high redshift (z) are galaxies in the early universe, and they differ from local ones. They often show more irregular morphologies and significantly different kinematic properties, as turbulent motion dominates. These early galaxies have higher gas velocity dispersion (σ) and lower rotation-to-dispersion (vrot/σ) values. Recent findings from both the JWST and the Atacama Large Millim
