We demonstrate a new screening method for obtaining a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) binding aptamer based on an acoustofluidic separation (acoustophoreis) technique. Since acoustophoresis provides simultaneous washing and separation in a continuous flow mode, we efficiently obtained a PSA binding aptamer that shows high affinity without any additional washing step, which is necessary in other sc
Offentlig upphandling är ett ämne som diskuteras både nationellt och internationellt. Redan sedan Sveriges inträde till Europeiska unionen år 1995, har upphandling allt mer och mer reglerats på EU-nivå och idag, sker all reglering kring upphandlingsförfaranden på EU-nivå. I den här uppsatsen har upphandlingsdirektiven 2014/24/EU, 2014/25/EU och i synnerlighet regeringens proposition 2015/16:195 st
Föräldraalienation är ett fenomen som innebär att en förälder påverkar det gemensamma barnet att ta avstånd från den andra föräldern utan grund, trots att föräldern varit god och omsorgsfull.

Sverige har länge varit förskonat från korruption av större omfattning, landet brukar i Transparency Internationals årliga rapporter rankas som ett av länderna med minst korruption. Det senaste decenniet har dock flera stora korruptionshärvor i myndigheter och offentlig verksamhet uppmärksammats av media och väckt stort intresse hos allmänheten. Undersökningar som BRÅ publicerat visar att mutor i Sweden has long been spared from the corruption of higher extent, Transparency International's annual reports usually rank the country as one of those with the least corruption. The last decade, however, several major cases of corruption in authorities and the public sector have attracted the attention of the media and great interest among the public. Investigations published by BRÅ show that
In association with the refugee crisis in 2015, more people sought asylum in Sweden than ever before. The Swedish government initially pursued a relatively welcoming asylum policy with open borders and with a vision of maintaining the right to asylum. This moral attitude towards refugees would subsequently take a turn. On December 9 in 2015, the Bill "Specific measures during serious danger t
Kan mindfullness hjälpa unga som mår psykiskt dåligt? Det är allt fler i samhället som mår psykiskt dåligt och antalet unga med psykisk ohälsa ökar. Psykisk ohälsa handlar om hur vi mår och trivs med livet samt hur vi hanterar livets upp- och nedgångar. För många som mår psykiskt dåligt tar det emot att söka professionell hjälp då det finns en skam för att inte kunna hantera sin egen livssituatio
La Petite Ceinture is a mysterious abandoned rail line at the heart of Paris. Once a major connector between the different train stations of the French capital, it now quietly rests hidden, as one of Paris’ long forgotten green corridors. In 2006, a joint collaboration between the elected representatives and the train company tried to come up with a plan to open it up for the public to enjoy. Th
The aim of this thesis is to describe and explain how meal-box, as a digital device designed to assist households in carrying out eating practices, reconfigure household practices and enable specific behavioural activities, including sustainability. Taking a socio-material and practice theory approach and drawing on an ethnographic study of three meal-box providers – The Seasons, Hello Fresh and L
Denna uppsats behandlar den okonventionella spaningsmetoden infiltration. Infiltration är en spaningsmetod som svensk polis har använt i sin brottsbekämpande verksamhet under lång tid utan något uttryckligt lagstöd. Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda infiltration ur ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv. Den rättsliga grunden för infiltration och de regler som ska beaktas vid dess användning ska utredas i This essay concerns the unconventional reconnaissance method of infiltration. Infiltration is a reconnaissance method that Swedish police has used in its law enforcement activities during many years, even though no section in Swedish law explicitly justifies its use. The purpose of this essay is therefore to investigate the legal basis of infiltration and whether this legal basis is in compliance
The research area of this essay is the people's perception of the post modern/late modern society's increasing individualization and increasing number of choices. The main theoretical points are Giddens and Bauman's theories about humans in the post modern/late modern society. Giddens describes reflexivity as a way to consider your own role and your responsibility to society. Bauman is
In this work, the mechanical behavior of longitudinal sealings in paper based beverage packages have been investigated trough experimental tests and Finite Element simulations. The mechanical performance of the longitudinal sealing is of great interest when developing and improving beverage packages. Choosing a suitable sealing type is both a performance and cost issue, therefore is better knowled
The purpose of this study is to investigate, at the Stockholm Exchange during the period 1994 to 2006, whether certain quotations with particular characteristics can be said to produce positive abnormal returns relatively larger than others. We measure the initial return as well as the mid and long run abnormal returns for firms quoted on the Stockholm Exchange during 1994 and 2006 based on quotat
This paper provides a production and consumption-based empirical macroeconomic-climate assessment of Sweden’s CO2 emissions. The core methodology is based on three complementary quantitative methods, namely energy-economy-environment indicators, econometric analyses, and a multi-regional input output (MRIO) sectoral model. Based on the latest available data (1971–2011), indicators show a sharp dec
The focus of this thesis is on liner conferences. Liner conferences are formations of lines collaborating or otherwise operating collusive on specific routes at fixed schedules. Other definitions will follow. The outline comprises three parts over seven chapters whom each will end in an analytical summary of its content The first part introduces the reader to the historical background of shipping
The aim of the present study is to study the Abscopal regression of subcutaneously implanted N29 rat glioma after immunization with syngeneic IFNg secreting cells and treatment of contra-lateral tumours with pulsed electric fields (PEF) and/or radiation therapy (RT). The study was performed on rats of the Fischer-344 strain with rat glioma N29 tumours implanted subcutaneously on the flank or on bo
The Monte Carlo method has become increasingly used to simulate imaging systems like the scintillation camera and SPECT systems. In order to investigate intrinsic properties of SPECT systems the Monte Carlo based application SIMIND (Simulating Medical Imaging Nuclear Detectors) has been developed. Up to now, it has not been able to simulate a pinhole-imaging device with SIMND. The aim of this work
