The Ezrin/Radixin/Moesin (ERM) family of proteins act as cross-linkers between the plasma membrane and the actin cytoskeleton. This mechanism plays an essential role in processes related to membrane remodeling and organization, such as cell polarization, morphogenesis and adhesion, as well as in membrane protein trafficking and signaling pathways. For several human aquaporin (AQP) isoforms, an int

This master thesis maps and discusses the current and future needs, wishes and challenges of office workers. The resultant contextual knowledge is utilized to develop a concept of an office chair. The work followed an exploratory design process. Initially, literature and data on various topics were researched to form an understanding of the current and future working conditions of office workers.

For most people getting a stroller is an obvious thing to do when having a baby. It’s mainly used for transportation of the baby but has other functions as well. For example, it is used as a storage, serves as a shopping bag for groceries and makes a perfect bed for a baby nap. Using a stroller should be easy and safe, but when it’s getting dark outside it can be hard to see the road ahead and fin

This thesis deals with the problem of outsourced emissions, the situation when the consumption of (predominantly Global North) countries with high carbon efficiency drives emissions in (predominantly Global South) countries with low carbon efficiency. The EU as a climate leader and an economic superpower subsumes a large share of outsourced emissions. Outsourcing can be measured by the consumption

This thesis examines a local low-carbon energy transition in an urban context with regard to energy justice. It takes the Vauban district in Freiburg (Germany) as a case study which has been described as a successful case of energy transition and a model for sustainable urban development. From a theoretical point of view, energy justice encompasses a fair distribution of costs and benefits of an e

The road freight sector’s significant contribution to greenhouse gas emissions necessitates emission mitigating strategies to meet climate targets, such as the Paris Agreement’s goal of 43% emission reduction. While Battery Electric Trucks (BETs) show great potential to reach these goals, their successful integration hinges on optimization and route planning. This thesis investigates the condition

Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are widely used to treat respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The performance of DPI formulations is influenced by the properties of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), but systematic comparative studies of different APIs under the same processing conditions remain limited. This study investigated the effects of di

The rights of the children : a formality or a reality? Incorporating the Convention on the Rights of the Child into Swedish law This essay investigates the arguments for incorporating the United Nation’s Convention on the Rights of the Child into Swedish law through a discourse analysis. The empirical data for the analysis consists of the Swedish Government Official Report (SOU 2016:19) on the su

The technical department usually own the Business Intelligence and Analytics (BI&A) systems. However, due to the need for faster decision-making, the business users started to demand using BI&A in their daily work as well. The traditional training for BI&I focused more on the technical people, who have proficient technical background while the business users lack technical backgrounds.

Inside the human body, cells produce long sugar chains called glycosaminoglycans, or named shortly as GAGs, these sugars play an important role in our body since they are involved in important biological processes such as blood coagulation, being components in our cartilage, and the new development of tissues. Changes in these sugars is associated with several diseases such as in some kinds of can

The Standard Model does not predict the quantization of electric charge, and thus does not explicitly demand the electric neutrality of the neutron. This charge has previously been measured to an upper limit of ∼ 1 × 10^−21 elementary charges in a 1988 joint experiment between the University of Bayreuth and Institut Laue-Langevin [1]. A new experiment proposed for the HIBEAM beamline at the ESS is

Thesis purpose: The purpose of the master thesis is to analyse the battle of meaning creation regarding the notion of smoking and to reveal the production of unequal power relations. The battle is fought by different stakeholders through means of language and the study focuses on the tobacco industry in Germany. Methodology: A critical discourse analysis is applied with a qualitative research stra

Forest biomass used in bioenergy systems, is a proven, large scale, cost-effective and growing renewable energy source in numerous countries. In Australia, the technical potential and environmental benefits of forest biomass for energy purposes are evident to many social and market actors, yet implementation is minimal. This work investigates a number of the underlying factors for the low implemen

This thesis aims to explore the issue of trademark squatting and its solutions in the EU and China. Trademark squatting is a form of trademark infringement that occurs when individuals or entities register trademarks in territories where they do not have legitimate business operations, taking advantage of the "first-to-file" systems. If trademark squatting is permitted to persist, it has

Within a collaboration between MAX-lab and BESSY a one stage seeded HGHG-FEL has been set up at Maxlab. BESSY has built the undulator system consisting of a modulator, a radiator and an electromagnetic chicane. BESSY has also installed three types of diagnostic tools: optical fibres for a fast Cherenkov beam loss detection, optical fibres for absolute dose measurements via their radiation-induced

Housing expenditure is without doubt one of the biggest expenditure posts for all households. By using econometrics to estimate regressions with cross-­‐sectional data including more than 1500 individuals, this thesis examines whether there is any individual characteristics that determines how big a share of the disposable income that is spent on housing each month. The results indicate that diffe

Ur HEDDA GABLER (Henrik Ibsen) sidan 191-193 Rollen som HEDDA HEDDA (står och avvaktar en stund). Ni tänker alltså inte följa henne hem, herr Lövborg. LÖVBORG Jag? Gå omkring på gatorna? Så folk skulle se att hon gick tillsammans med mig? HEDDA Jag vet ju inte om det hänt något mer i natt. Men är det så oförlåtligt då? LÖVBORG Det handlar inte bara om i natt. Jag vet det så väl. Men det är det att
