Fara för trichotecener i spannmål? med fokus på T-2/HT-2 Det går att undvika bekämpningsmedel i våra livsmedel eftersom det finns ekologiskt odlade livsmedel. Däremot går det inte att undvika mykotoxiner. De bildas av svampar. I spannmål påträffas bland annat mykotoxinet T-2/HT-2 som tillhör mykotoxingruppen trichotecener och kommer från svampsläktet Fusarium. Riskanalys är den vedertagna metodenThe process of how a maximum level is created for mycotoxins in the European Union is described here. The focus is on the mycotoxin T-2/HT-2 that is formed by Fusarium, a fungus that infects grains. T-2/HT-2 has been an issue for a long time without having a maximum level. This literature study will give an overview of how the process of creating a maximum level works. Risk analysis is the name

This paper is a comparative study of different approaches to using a Discrete Time Micro-structure model. By using the three filtering techniques Extended Kalman, Unscented Kalman and Bootstrap Particle, the hidden variables; excess demand and market liquidity, were estimated and used in an asset allocation strategy that invested in the asset when the excess demand as estimated as positive, due to

Authors: Andréa Porutis & Hanna Ström Title: “In my lap” – Social workers narratives of their work with domestic violence Supervisor: Eva Johnsson Assessor: Anders Östnäs [The aim of this qualitative study was to examine social workers experiences of their work with domestic violence. This was performed by taking part of the social workers narratives about their work through semi - structured

This thesis analyses the problem of the conflict between fundamental rights with special attention to the clash between freedom of expression and human dignity In my view the hate speech problem is a good example of this clash: the right to freedom of expression can be in conflict with other human rights, mainly with the right to human dignity. My question is: how should one solve this problem, or

The status of Western Sahara has since 1975 been a controversial topic in international relations. Morocco claims that the territory rightfully belongs to them while Polisario, the representative of the Sahrawi’s, are of the dichotomous opinion and demands independence. In this paper I will examine the statement that Western Sahara in the long run would be to weak and too poor to survive as a stat

Elevators has for a long period of time been regarded as unsafe to use as a means of egress. This is an opinion that has shifted in the last couple of years as technical solutions has been found to the initial problems when using elevators as an escape route. This report investigates the possibility to replace a staircase with emergency elevators as a means of egress in a buildning. The report als

Popular Abstract in Swedish El-avfall (avfall från elektriska och elektroniska produkter) har under det senaste årtiondet blivit ett växande miljöproblem också i de mindre rika länderna (icke-OECD länder). Informell återvinning i u-länder har lett till att giftiga ämnen, som t.ex. bly och kvicksilver från tv-apparater, PVC från sladdar och bromerade flamskyddsmedel från plastkomponenter, har läcktWaste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) has become a salient issue in non-OECD countries. With a growing awareness about serious damages to the environment and human health from a lack of safe treatment and recycling of WEEE, there has been a search for policy responses in several of these countries. This research finds that extended producer responsibility (EPR), a policy principle that

This study has two goals: Firstly, to give an account of the semantic organization of individually used antonymic adjectives in discourse, and secondly, based on these finding, and previous work on antonymic meanings, contribute to a comprehensive theoretical account of their representation within the framework of Cognitive Linguistics. The hypothesis is that the members of the pairs are used in t

We show conclusively that multilayers at interfaces of an oppositely charged polyelectrolyte/surfactant system can result from the transport under gravity of bulk aggregates with internal molecular structure. This process was demonstrated by measurements of poly-(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)/sodium dodecyl sulfate solutions at the air/liquid and solid/liquid interfaces using neutron reflectom

Occupational value with predefined items scale is an originally 26-item Swedish tool used to assess values people find in their everyday doings. The present study validated this scale on a Turkish sample and described the values that Turks perceived in their daily doings. The participants included a convenience sample of 446 adults with mean age 26 (SD = 7.3). Initial item analysis followed by pri

Swedishness, Catholicism and European IntegrationThe position of the Catholic Church in Sweden has radically changed in the last forty years. At the beginning of the 1960s, the Catholicism was commonly regarded as a threat to Swedish cultural identity, not least among members of the ruling Social-Democratic Party. Today, the Catholic Church is an accepted part of Swedish society. In my article, I The position of the Catholic Church in Sweden has radically changed in the last forty years. At the beginning of the 1960s, the Catholicism was commonly regarded as a threat to Swedish cultural identity, not least among members of the ruling Social-Democratic Party. Today, the Catholic Church is an accepted part of Swedish society. This article discuss this process of change and its impact on Swed

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det mesta i min avhandling handlar om utveckling av uppreningsprocesser i läkemedelsindurstin. Den stora kostnaden för läkemedelsföretagen ligger oftast inte i att producera ett läkemedel, utan att ta fram en produkt. Det är också långt ifrån alla kandidater till läkemedel som till slut blir en produkt. Detta kan till exempel bero på att kandidaten inte var tillräckligtIn my thesis, I have modeled adsorption chromatography and simulated, calibrated, and analyzed models of adsorption chromatography. While my main focus has been modeling and calibration of the models by estimating the parameters, the models used have been partly new. The simulations are differentiated from the modeling in that the modeling describes the partial differential algebraic equation, whi

The electrocatalytic properties for NADH oxidation of five organic dyes, two indophenol derivatives (2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol and indophenol) and three o-quinone derivatives (phenanthrenequinone, pyrroloquinoline-quinone, and 1,2-naphthoquinone) were compared when adsorbed on zirconium phosphate entrapped in carbon paste. The electrochemical behavior of the immobilized dyes was investigated wi
