Examensarbetet undersöker om det i en viss process går att förutsäga hur ett läkemedelspulver och dess partiklar kommer att bete sig utifrån att undersöka fysikaliska egenskaper hos partiklarna. Att hantera pulver inom läkemedelsindustrin är en väldigt stor utmaning. På grund av att de flesta läkemedel idag säljs som tabletter som tillverkats från pulver, så är utmaningen av mycket stor betydelse,The master thesis was done at QPharma to investigate a processing problem during production of tablets, where an excessive volume expansion during dry mixing of three ingredients occurred from time to time. A volume expansion (dilation) is needed for particles, within a powder, to become mixed with other particles. However, the extent of the dilation is dependent on intermolecular forces between p

Company-driven initiatives to collaborate with startups are increasingly arising as a reaction to the competitive landscape of today, influenced by globalization, digitalization, and an increased demand for open innovation practices. Startups constitute a major source of innovation and have the ability to overthrow current technologies and business models. Due to vast differences, and the compleme

Sveriges riksdag har beslutat att FN:s konvention om barns rättigheter (Barnkonventionen) ska bli lagstadgad år 2020. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur socialsekreterare vid enheten Barn och Familj uppfattar och talar om sina egna och andra samhällsaktörers tolkning av vad som är barnets bästa, och om de anser att dessa tolkningar påverkar samarbetet med andra organisationer. Metoden sSweden's government has decided that the United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) will be made into law by the year 2020. The aim of this study was therefore to explore how child welfare social workers perceive and talk about what affects their own and other community actors interpretation of the best interest of the child, and if they believe those interpretations have an

Flyttningsmönster hos två populationer av större strandpipare beskrivet med hjälp av ljusloggrar Fågelflyttning är ett resultat av naturlig selektion och är anpassad till alla delar av en fågels liv, så som miljön den häckar i, dess byte av fjädrar och konkurrens med artfränder oh andra. Eftersom fåglar finns i nästan alla miljöer är variationen på olika sätt att flytta stor. Ibland uppstår tydliLeap-frog migration, i.e. when a northerly breeding population/species migrates further south compare to southerly breeding population/species, is a common migration pattern in birds. However, it is still unknown which factors facilitate the evolution of such a migration pattern pattern. A textbook example of a species exhibiting leap-frog migration is the Common Ringed Plover Charadrius hiaticula

Background and purpose - Outcome measurement has been shown to improve performance in several fields of healthcare. This understanding has driven a growing interest in value-based healthcare, where value is defined as outcomes achieved per money spent. While low back pain (LBP) constitutes an enormous burden of disease, no universal set of metrics has yet been accepted to measure and compare outco

The amyloid beta (A beta) peptides (mainly A beta 40 and A beta 42), which are derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP), can oligomerize into antibody A11-positive, neurotoxic species, believed to be involved in Alzheimer's disease. Interestingly, APP binds strongly to the heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycan (PG) glypican-1 (Gpc-1) in vitro and both proteins are colocalized inside cells. In

In dim light, scarcity of photons typically leads to poor vision. Nonetheless, many animals show visually guided behavior with dim environments. We investigated the signaling properties of photoreceptors of the dark active cockroach (Periplaneta americana) using intracellular and whole-cell patch-clamp recordings to determine whether they show selective functional adaptations to dark. Expectedly,

The great polymorphism observed in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes is thought to be maintained by pathogen-mediated selection possibly combined with MHC-disassortative mating, guided by MHC-determined olfactory cues. Here, we partly characterize the MHC class I and II B of the blue petrel, Halobaena caerulea (Procellariiformes), a bird with significant olfactory abilities that liv

Coal gasification-based polygeneration (CGP) technology provides an opportunity for China to help to solve the main challenges it is facing in energy sector. On one hand, it can greatly mitigate the conflict of energy demand and supply in China, by generating electricity and co-producing liquid fuel without China's becoming overly dependent on imports, on the other hand, it can dramatically de

Oxy-fuel combustion is one of the proposed technologies which have the potential to achieve zero CO2 emission. Strontium cobalt based perovskite oxygen carriers are promising materials for air separation with a high selectively for oxygen. And these perovskites can produce an oxygen enriched carbon dioxide stream for an oxy-fuel combustion process. The relatively low oxygen production yield may be

PURPOSE. The aims of this study were to use transscleral optical spectroscopy to analyze normal and tumor-infiltrated areas of enucleated human eyes, and to characterize the spectral properties of uveal melanomas in relation to various morphological features. METHODS. Nine consecutive eyes enucleated for uveal melanoma were examined by transscleral spectroscopy, using a fiber-optic probe that exer

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kroppens förmåga att omvandla matens energi till energi som kan användas i organen sker i små organeller som finns i alla kroppens celler, mitokondrierna. Avvikelser i mitokondrierna förorsakar därför ofta svåra sjukdomar. GRACILE syndrom är en medfödd mitokondriell sjukdom, som leder till svår tillväxthämning, problem med ämnesomsättningen och tidig död. Det finns ingeThe assembly of respiratory chain complexes in the mitochondrial inner membrane requires specific factors. Once assembled to form a mature functional complex, complex III (CIII) is a dimer consisting of two monomers, each with eleven subunits. To date, seven assembly factors for CIII are known, of which BCS1L incorporates the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (RISP) in the last stage of the assembly. The

AIM AND OBJECTIVE: To describe the study design of a randomised controlled trial with the aim of comparing two different regimes for children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes; hospital-based care and hospital-based home care. BACKGROUND: Procedures for hospital admission and sojourn in connection with diagnose vary greatly worldwide and the existing evidence is insufficient to allow for any c

Wilms' tumor gene 1 (WT1) is a transcription factor involved in developmental processes. In adult hematopoiesis, only a small portion of early progenitor cells express WT1, whereas most leukemias show persistently high levels, suggesting an oncogenic role. We have previously characterized oncogenic BCR/ABL1 tyrosine kinase signaling pathways for increased WT1 expression. In this study, we show tha

A 3D model is developed to describe an anode-supported planar solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), by ANSYS/Fluent evaluating reactions including methane steam reforming (MSR)/water-gas shift (WGSR) reactions in thick anode layer and H-2-O-2/CO-O-2 electrochemical reactions in anode active layer, coupled with heat, mass species, momentum, and ion/electron charges transport processes in SOFC. The predicte

Direct electron transfer (DET) from bare spectrographic graphite (SPGE) or 3-mercaptopropionic acid-modified gold (MPA-gold) electrodes to Trachyderma tsunodae bilirubin oxidase (BOD) was studied under anaerobic and aerobic conditions by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. On cyclic voltammograms nonturnover Faradaic signals with midpoint potentials of about 700 mV and 400 mV were clearly ob
