The main obligation under Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) is the obligation of registration. The company responsible for import and manufacture, as well as an only representative are registrants. To carry out the registration obligation means t

Företag som ser sig om efter åtgärder för att minska sin klimat­påverkan och samtidigt stärka sitt varumärke bör undvika klimat­kompensation i svenska skogar. Det skriver sex forskare.

FinEstBeAMS (Finnish-Estonian Beamline for Atmospheric and Materials Sciences) is a multidisciplinary beamline constructed at the 1.5 GeV storage ring of the MAX IV synchrotron facility in Lund, Sweden. The beamline covers an extremely wide photon energy range, 4.5-1300 eV, by utilizing a single elliptically polarizing undulator as a radiation source and a single grazing-incidence plane grating mo

Compression of the repeat request data in ARQ protocols was studied. Focus was on the problem of compressing the output of the block box (ARQ algorithm) with unknown input signal (error sequence). Towards finding a practical solution, it was found that the main statistical properties of error sequences and xn are more less the same.

The pandemic-induced economic crisis has seen a massive build up in savings across Europe and North America as households could not spend their income as they normally would. The last time that consumers were seriously rationed was during the Second World War. This paper models the behaviour of households during the War years and its immediate aftermath in Ireland, Sweden, the US and the UK. We fi

Widowhood involves many practical challenges next to the emotional impact of bereavement. Remarriage to a blood relative of a deceased spouse can often help a bereaved spouse to solve issues related to inheritance, child care, and comfort in a stressful period. A study of 15,540 widowers and 18,837 widows in the Dutch province of Zeeland—of whom about 8,000 men and 5,000 women eventually remarried

OBJECTIVES: The cell cycle regulator cyclin D1 plays an important role in parathyroid tumourigenesis. The NciI polymorphism in exon 4 has recently been associated with early onset of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer and is a prognostic indicator of nonsmall cell lung cancer and squamous cell carcinomas. Furthermore, a limited study of 28 primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) patients display

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1-alpha-hydroxylase expression have recently been shown to be upregulated in several tumors and thought to represent an important endogenous response to tumor progression. Little is known about the expression of these proteins in thyroid carcinoma, although previous reports have documented evidence of the biological effect of vitamin D in thyroid c

The thesis investigates the possibility of predicting future economic activity using the yield spread of a UK Treasury bond and bill, and a inflation variable. To investigate this matter, this paper uses the theoretical framework of the relationship between the term structure and economic growth. It is found that the chosen yield spread on its on holds some significance in forecasting future quart

For the past decades, counterfeiting has severely threatened China-EU trade. It not only led to tremendous loss for businesses, but also created problems such as harm to public health and other crime related activities. China has been accused by its main trading partners as being the biggest counterfeit source for a long time. Both China and EU have already put a lot of effort on containment of co

The article addresses the broader relationships between seaweed and algae as a marine resource, destination development, and sustainability. In many European countries, an industry around seaweed has emerged, ranging from high-end restaurants that provide their customers with local, seasonal and sustainableingredients, to entrepreneurs offering “harvest your own seaweed”-tours. In this explorative

This presentation aims to discuss aspects of the fitting room situation from two theoretical perspectives; communities of practice and the ambiguity of touch (touching, being touched). The theoretical frame is intertwined with reflections form my own practice as designer/maker/educator/researcher and from discussions/interviews with colleagues and students from different disciplines at The Danish

Integrins are transmembrane receptors that activate signal transduction pathways upon extracellular matrix binding. The integrin-mediated adhesive complex (IMAC) mediates various cell physiological processes. Although the IMAC was thought to be specific to animals, in the past ten years these complexes were discovered in other lineages of Obazoa, the group containing animals, fungi, and several mi

Civil society is an integral part of reaching sustainable development, and a cornerstone in democratic societies. The aim of this study is to investigate how Swedish donors and local partners work with civic space in Liberia, specifically challenges related to civic space. It also examines strategies Swedish donors and their local partners apply to overcome these challenges. The study has a qualit
