In the first national human biomonitoring study in the Slovenian population of adults (18–49 years), including men (n = 297) and lactating primiparous women (n = 304), exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was evaluated. Nine urinary metabolites of four parent PAHs were determined. These included 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHPYR), 2-hydroxynaphthalene (2-OHNAP), 2-hydroxyphenanthrene (2-OHPH
Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) are the most promising strategy for reducing the carbon emissions of aviation in the near term, but their combustion behavior is not well understood compared to conventional fuels. This work investigates how different properties of SAF may lead to different emergent combustion behavior by targeting a small set of very distinct fuels. The investigation is carried ou
Inflammation and insulin resistance are associated with increased mortality in the general population. However, it remains unclear how physical activity and proinflammatory/hyperinsulinemic diets influence overall survival in prostate cancer patients. We analyzed 4779 men with nonmetastatic prostate cancer from the Health Professionals Follow-up Study. Postdiagnosis physical activity and diet were
The classic obligate pollination–seed consumption mutualism between yuccas and yucca moths has been thought to be mediated by chemical cues, but empirical data on pollinator attraction to host floral volatiles in this association have been lacking. Here we show that the scent from virgin flowers of the host Yucca glauca is sufficient to attract its obligate pollinator Tegeticula yuccasella in Y-tu
Osteosarcoma is a malignant cancer of the bone mainly affecting adolescents. Despite progress, the clinical management of osteosarcoma is still challenging. With the current chemotherapy protocol being used for more than 30 years, the number of poor responders is increasing. Although new treatments have been explored since then, no improved tumor eradication effect have been found. In the present

Den snabba digitala utvecklingen har medfört att immaterialrättsliga tillgångar har ökat i betydelse samt ekonomiskt värde, och i takt med denna utveckling har piratkopieringen kommit att bli ett allt större problem. De senaste tio åren har samtidigt en trendökning skett i praxis vad gäller straffrättsligt ansvar vid piratkopiering. Straffrättsliga förfaranden inom det immaterialrättsliga området The rapid digital development has caused intellectual property rights to increase in importance and economic value. In line with this development, piracy has become an ever-increasing problem. During the last ten years, an increasing trend has also appeared in regards to criminal law proceedings concerning piracy infringements. Criminal proceedings in the field of intellectual property have previo
En två-kolonn MCSGP process för upprening av Liraglutid genomfördes i laboratorieskala. Den här processen är inte en kommersiell uppreningsprocess, utan att den är ett modellsystem med en realistisk peptidblandning och med en icke-kommersiell harts. Först modellerades processen med en konvektiv dispersiv modell för att beskriva koncentrationen genom kolonnen och den steriska massaktionsmodellen föA twin-column MCSGP process for the purification of Liraglutide was implemented at lab scale. This process is not a commercial separation step, but it is a model system with a realistic peptide mixture and with a non-commercial resin. First, the process was modeled using a convective dispersive model to describe the concentration along the column and the steric mass action model to describe the ad
In a small and confined one dimensional geometry of nanowire, even few defects can influence the performance of the devices. Main objective of this thesis is to conduct photoluminescence study of such defect states in GaAs nanowires, which we will first introduce by diffusing copper impurity atoms, in very low concentrations. In low concentrations, ideally single atom in a wire, the photoluminesc
Uppsatsen behandlar den rättsliga hanteringen av personlig och sexuell integritet i dagens samhälle. Den utreder även det särskilt skyddsvärda i den sexuella integriteten. Uppsatsen grundar sig i en teori om att sexualbrott är starkt förknippade med kön, makt och sexualitet där offret oftast är en kvinna och gärningsmannen en man. Därför anlägger uppsatsen ett feministiskt perspektiv. Uppsatsen This essay focuses on personal and sexual integrity and how they, as two protective interests, are dealt with in the legislation process and in criminal law in general in today’s society. It especially focuses on the specific characteristics of sexual integrity and sexual crimes. The essay is based on a theory that sexual crimes are strongly connected to gender, power and sexuality where the victi
This thesis describes the development of an autonomous weeding vehicle for the agricultural industry. It has been done as a project at RMIT University in Melbourne and the aim was to develop a design for the vehicle which could later be used to develop a commercial product. The current trend in the agricultural industry is larger machines that can benefit from economies of scale. These heavy mac
Lojalitetsplikten är en rättsprincip inom framför allt avtalsrätten som i stort innebär att en part i viss utsträckning även ska tillvarata sin motparts intressen så att denne inte lider skada. Lojalitetsplikten gäller både före, under och efter avtalsförhållandet, men vilka rättsföljder som följer när en part inte uppfyller lojalitetsplikten är oklart och beror på olika faktorer, som till exempelThe duty of loyalty is a principle within the Swedish contract law which basically means that a party also has to consider its counterparts interest and make sure that, to some extent, the counterpart does not get damaged financially. The duty of loyalty as a principle takes effect before, during and after the contractual relationship. What a breach of the principle will lead to all depends on wha
Narratives about Europe are stories of shared European past, present and future, that provide meaning to the existence of the European Union and to the policy it pursues. In this thesis, narratives about Europe are analysed in nine State of the Union speeches, given by Commission presidents from 2010 to 2020, and situated in the theoretical framework of discursive institutionalism. A combination o
The chaperone DNAJB6 can suppress fibril formation of amyloid-β. This is dependent on functionally important conserved serine (S) and threonine (T) residues located in a C-terminal domain which is dominated by β-strands. Substitution of the conserved ST-residues with alanine residues results in loss of this function. In this thesis two DNAJB6 mimic constructs are examined to see whether or not the
In the Nordic countries, an increasing part of the population consists of migrants from various backgrounds. Naturally, it is important to investigate what can be done in order for these migrants to integrate successfully. Previous research shows that some of the fundamentals of integration are trust and the sense of collective identity. Therefore, it is important to further investigate the compon
This work was carried out for the company Verifyter AB in Lund. Their main customers are microchip manufacturers. Verifyter provides a tool called PinDown that does automatic debugging on their customers' test runs. The tool creates a large amount of data with information about these test runs. The company wants to be able to visualize this data for their customers in order for their customers
The society has gone from production equipment being the most valued asset in the organizations, to today, having the human asset and their competencies as a valuable and critical contributor to business profit. Competency Management has, therefore, received much attention and been a common Human Resource practice in the past decades. However, it is still an unexplored process in many private and
Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) is a chronic disease characterized by the inability of the pancreas to produce sufficient amounts of insulin. Daily compensation of the deficiency requires 4-6 insulin injections to be taken daily, the aim of this insulin therapy being to maintain normoglycemia- i.e., a blood glucose level between 4-7 mmol/L. To determine the quantity and timing of these
