Peptidläkemedel måste ofta tas som injektioner eftesom peptider är för stora för att kunna absorberas genom celler den orala rutten. Men genom att inkludera absorbtionsförbättrare (surfaktanter) så kan denna absorbtionen för bättras, vilket skulle kunna möjliggöra skapandet av peptidläkemedel i tablettform! Genom att studera interaktionerna mellan peptider och absorbtionsförbättrare så kan man få Therapeutic peptides can often not be formulated as tablets by themselves as they’re prone to enzyme degradation the oral route - they also do not present good enough passage through epithelial cells to be viable for this dosage form. But if formulated together with surfactants, e.g., sodium caprate (C10), the absorption through epithelial cells can be increased. When peptides and absorption enhan

Plastic has been a revolutionary material in human history. Plastic materials have several desirable properties, such as durability, low production costs, and versatility. This helps explain the increase in their use and production over the past 100 years. Plastics are synthetic polymers, with long repeating chains of monomers; this creates structures that are chemically stable and durable. The ov

Detta examensarbete introducerar ett nytt förslag på användning av nedlagda skolor, fabrikslokaler, vårdinstitutioner, och andra övergivna anläggningar som står tomma runt om på Sveriges landsbygd. Behovet av funktioner dessa byggnader en gång var ämnade för saknar idag efterfrågan och jag vill lyfta potentialen sådana platser kan ha för särskilda användningsområden, i jämförelse med att bygga nytThis thesis introduces a new proposal for the reuse of abandoned schools, industrial buildings, care institutions, and other vacant facilities scattered across rural Sweden. The functions these buildings once served are no longer in use, and I aim to highlight the potential these places may hold for specific new uses, as an alternative to constructing new buildings. With consideration of a current

The importance of technology as a source of competitive advantage has made the technological development an important part of the strategic management of a company. Since investment in technological development can be expensive and can involve a high risk it is essential to integrate the company’s technologies with its general commercial strategy. To be able to do that it is important to have an u

The Sami people have a long history of colonization, discrimination, marginalization and prosecution in their past. My thesis deals with how the Sami identity is created and reproduced today and how it has been shaped in the light of the history of the Sami people and the policies pursued by the Swedish government through times, and also why the search for identity, heritage and roots has had such

The rules of law regarding complaints have frequently been addressed in law debates and have in addition been overviewed for a long time. Within the laws of carriage, the law of carriage and the law of the sea, the rules of complaint remain separated from general rules of complaint. Within the rules of the Swedish law of carriage (vägtransportlagen) as well as the Swedish maritime law (sjölagen),

As the case of the Deepwater Horizon reveals, the consequences of an oil spill or any other marine incident can be devastating. Although pollution from ships implies a much lesser scale, nevertheless there must be maximum efforts for preventing the possible risks and consequences of marine casualties. For centuries salvors have remained the ones who will provide the fastest response to a ship in

We report the first incorporation of S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) into micellar systems of the poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock copolymer Pluronic® F127 for nitric oxide (NO) delivery and show how sodium taurodeoxycholate (NaTDC) modulates F127 micellization and gelation. Using differential scanning calorimetry, small-angle X-ray scat

Turning sustainable is one of the largest challenges facing the aviation sector. Switching to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) instead of fossil fuels is a large piece of the sustainability puzzle, but there is no current SAF that is approved as a stand alone fuel. The road to a stand alone SAF is long and requires more diverse biofuels as well as more research on how biofuels combust. This thesis

This study investigates how rescue service response times and staffing solutions relate to both citizen satisfaction with rescue services and the adoption of individual fire safety measures in Sweden. Data were drawn from Statistics Sweden's satisfaction index, rescue service response times from KOLADA, and survey data from the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency on ownership of functional smoke de

Stress, Unmanageability, FOMO, and Lack of Recovery: A New Perspective on Adolescent Mental HealthToday, many of the challenges that adolescents face involve mental health issues, some of which have the potential of negatively affecting them for a long time to come. There is, however, at present a lack of a detailed account on the mental health issues experienced by adolescents in Sweden. This stu

Multimetal smithing should be defined as the use of more than one metal and/or different metalworking techniques within thesame crafts-milieu. This complex metalworking has long been linked to centrality, central places and urbanity in Scandinavia.It has been extensively argued that fine casting and smithing, as well as manufacture utilizing precious metals was exclusivelyundertaken within early u

Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide-38 (PACAP38) is a widely distributed neuropeptide involved in neuroprotection, neurodevelopment, nociception and inflammation. Moreover, PACAP38 is a potent inducer of migraine-like attacks, but the mechanism behind this has not been fully elucidated.Migraine is a neurovascular disorder, recognized as the second most disabling disease. Nevertheles

Objective Endoscopic pituitary surgery has shown favorable clinical outcomes. Less is known about the impact of surgical approaches on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and work capacity. The present study was undertaken to compare transsphenoidal microscope-assisted surgery with endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery regarding preoperative and surgical factors for the final outcome of HRQoL and

A cluster of metabolic factors have been merged into an entity named the metabolic syndrome. Although the characteristics of this syndrome have varied over time the presently used definition was established in 2009. The presence of three abnormal findings out of five components qualifies a person for the metabolic syndrome: elevated waist circumference, elevated triglycerides, reduced high-density

The translational mobility of aggregates formed in aqueous sodium cholate solutions was obtained from the self-diffusion coefficient of solubilized decanol, which was determined using the capillary tube method with radioactive labeling. Combining these results with the self-diffusion coefficients of cholate ions, sodium ions, and water molecules the following quantities were determined as a functi

Dopamine replacement therapy for Parkinson's disease is achieved using L-DOPA or dopamine D2/3 agonists, such as ropinirole. Here, we compare the effects of L-DOPA and ropinirole, alone or in combination, on patterns of glial and microvascular reactivity in the striatum. Rats with unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions were treated with therapeutic-like doses of L-DOPA (6 mg/kg), an equipotent L-DOP

HD 3167 is a bright (V = 8.9 mag) K0 V star observed by NASA's K2 space mission during its Campaign 8. It has recently been found to host two small transiting planets, namely, HD 3167b, an ultra-short-period (0.96 days) super-Earth, and HD 3167c, a mini-Neptune on a relatively long-period orbit (29.85 days). Here we present an intensive radial velocity (RV) follow-up of HD 3167 performed with the

Within clay prone areas it is important to know if and to what extent quick clay is present. In Sweden undisturbed sampling and laboratory investigations are used to determine clay sensitivity and identify quick clay. Recent research for mapping of quick clay areas with the resistivity method is based on the fact that low pore-water salinity constitutes a criterion for quick clay formation. Electr
