The last couple of decades have seen an explosion of novel colloidal drug delivery systems, which have been demonstrated to increase drug efficacy, reduce side-effects, and provide various other advantages for both small-molecule and biomacromolecular drugs. The interactions of delivery systems with biomembranes are increasingly recognized to play a key role for efficient eradication of pathogens

Debatt Förlusten av arter och livsmiljöer är ett växande hot mot mänskligheten, precis som klimatförändringarna. Sverige behöver en samlad politik för naturen, med en naturlag, ett naturpolitiskt mål och naturpolitiskt råd – motsvarande det klimatpolitiska ramverket. Det skulle ge frågan den prioritet som krävs för att stoppa och vända förlusten av biologisk mångfald och säkra de naturnyttor vi är

Trots att jordbrukets näringsutsläpp till Östersjön har minskat krävs mycket mer för att uppnå de uppsatta miljömålen. Vi har utvärderat politiken som används för att minska utsläppen från de nio länder som samarbetar om restaureringen av Östersjön. Vi finner att den nuvarande politiken är otillräcklig eftersom:Många länder har inte genomfört de utlovade åtgärderna för att minska näringsutsläpp fr

Elaborating on conceptualizations of kitsch in the realm of art and sociology in the context of ISIS propaganda and culture, this article introduces the concept of jihadi kitsch. Kitsch is characterized by a compulsion to escape from the banality of daily reality and lack of coherent meaning in modern society through, in the words of the philosopher and sociologist Theodor Adorno, a self-made and

Popular Abstract in Swedish För att få svar på frågan om prostarnas lojalitet i samband med ”försvenskningen” av Lunds stift på 1680-talet, har jag använt lokalt material såsom räkenskaper och längder. Jämfört med den tidigare forskningen har mer preciserade och delvis annorlunda resultat presenterats, både vad gäller prostarnas lojalitet och ”försvenskningens” intensitet. Prostarna var ambivalentAfter the Peace of Roskilde in 1658, the territory that Sweden had acquired was to be incorporated into the rest of the country. A 'Swedification' of the church and the services did not begin until 1680, when a new bishop took up his duties in the Lund diocese. Previous research has been concentrated around the events on the national and diocese levels. The aim of this study is to use more local m

This thesis investigates labor exploitation within China's food delivery industry, focusing on dominant platforms such as Meituan and Eleme amid the rapid growth of the digital economy. The study is motivated by concerns about the working conditions of delivery workers, who often lack formal contracts and protections, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation, especially through the use of algor

A reliable serological marker of acute cellular rejection (ACR) after small bowel transplantation (SBTx) is still missing. Plasma citrulline level (PCL) reflects the functional integrity of intestinal mucosa which is partially lost during ACR. The aim of our study was to investigate the role of PCL as marker of ACR after SBTx. Eighteen German landrace pigs were used and divided into three groups.

Background: Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) inducing hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) with multiple organ involvement is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The treatment has mostly been focused on kidney, respiratory and cardiovascular supports and not against the bacteria that cause STEC-HUS. The use of bactericidal therapy has been shown to be antibiotic dependent

I det här arbetet behandlas invånardialog på det sociala mediet Facebook. Jag har genomfört en studie av hur Helsingborgs stad använder sin Facebooksida för att föra en dialog med invånarna samt hur denna dialog ser ut i praktiken. Genom att göra en kvalitativ intervju med officiella representanter för Helsingborgs stad, en kvalitativ innehållsanalys av dialogen på sidan och granska styrdokument hIn this study I have adressed the topic of citizen dialogue on the social network Facebook. I have conducted a study of how the city of Helsingborg use their Facebook page to communicate with the citizens and how they relate to the different rules, guidelines and policies that exist about dialogue and communication with the citizens on social media. The result of the study has shown that the city

As most manufacturing companies Alfa Laval needs to find new ways to differentiate by shifting the current product focus towards a more service oriented approach. Many manufacturing companies find it difficult to increase service revenues successfully. High investments in extending the service business do not result in the expected higher returns, providing a service paradox. To overcome the parad

Eutektiska lösningar är en blandning av två fasta ämnen som bildar en vätska i rumstemperatur när de blandas i rätt förhållande. Det som sker är att molekylerna i de två ämnena binder starkt till varandra och bygger upp ett nätverk mellan sig och på så sätt bildar en vätska. Läkemedel innehåller en aktiv substans, det som faktiskt hjälper när man har ont eller är sjuk. Många aktiva substanser trivDeep eutectic solvents, DES, is a type of solvent made by mixing a quaternary ammonium salt with a hydrogen bond donor at the eutectic point of the system. Most common quaternary ammonium salt is Choline Chloride, ChCl. A specific DES, Choline:CAGE has shown promise in delivering insulin through the skin of mice. Four different systems containing Choline chloride were chosen: ChCl:glycerol, ChCl:

Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by an expanded polyglutamine tract in the protein huntingtin (htt). Although HD has historically been viewed as a brain-specific disease, htt is expressed ubiquitously, and recent studies indicate that mutant htt might cause changes to the immune system that could contribute to pathogenesis. Monocytes from HD patients and mouse models are hyperactive in response

När en kvinna föder barn kan hon få skador i underlivet. Det kan göra att man senare behöver opereras för att t.ex. tarmen eller urinblåsan inte sitter helt fast på sin ursprungliga plats i magen utan istället buktar ut i slidan, något som kallas för framfall. Ca 7000 kvinnor opereras för sådana problem varje år i Sverige och det blir en stor kostnad för samhället. Även om man kan få framfall utanBACKGROUND: It is well-known that pelvic organ prolapses and perineal tears can be a consequence of vaginal birth. Seven thousand women undergo surgery for pelvic organ prolapses in Sweden every year. OBJECTIVE: To search for medical literature that describes the identification and repair of the anatomical structures present in obstetrical perineal tears. To make an attempt to understand how prola

Problem discussion: The internal foundry of ITT Flygt occasionally has problems with on-time delivery to the product workshops. This could lead to extra costs regarding labour and stock keeping. ITT Flygt are today unaware of the extent of these costs. Objectives: The main objective of the master thesis is to investigate the effects of low delivery accuracy from the foundry to PVC. This main objec

This paper analyses the effects of emigration on unemployment and wages in the ten Central and Eastern European countries that joined the EU in 2004 and 2007. These countries experi-enced large migration outflows following their accession and thus lost a considerable share of their labour force. This presents a good natural experiment to study the impact of emigration on the labour market outcomes
