Animals in seasonal environments must prudently manage energyexpenditure to survive the winter. This may be achieved throughreductions in the allocation of energy for various purposes (e.g.thermoregulation, locomotion, etc.). We studied whether such tradeoffsalso include suppression of the innate immune response, bysubjecting captive male Svalbard ptarmigan (Lagopus mutahyperborea) to bacterial li

The removal of lysozyme adsorbed to a hydrophobic surface by a non-ionic surfactant, C12E5, was investigated using in situ ellipsometry. Both the adsorption and removal of protein were studied at different protein and surfactant concentrations. The surfaces used were methylated silica surfaces and the experiments were carried out at pH 5.6 in 0.01 M NaCl solution.

In the 19th and early 20th centuries there were numerous non-proprietors paupers in the Swedish countryside such as crofters, boarders and inhabitants of rural slums.

The Swedish well fare state is a young phenomenon. In the 19th and early 20th centuries there were numerous non proprietor, poor and pauper people in the Swedish countryside such as crofters, boarders and inhabitants of rural slums. Being poor also meant being more exposed to risks than more resourceful persons, and having fragile safety nets. This paper is about these poor and pauper persons of tIn the 19th and early 20th centuries there were numerous non-proprietors and paupers in the Swedish countryside, such as crofters, boarders and inhabitants of rural slums. Multisource methods such as triangulation of written documents, historical maps and archaeological evidence are used to study the living conditions, vulnerability and marginalization of boarders and inhabitants of rural slums fr
Protein interactions are important in understanding various protein relevant cellular and technological processes.This is a challenging task due to the intrinsically irregular shape and inhomogeneous surface distribution of neutral, charged, hydrophobic amino acid residues. This results inmore or less anisotropic interactions depending on external parameters such assalt and pH. However, a deeper uProtein interactions are important in understanding various protein relevant cellular and technological processes.This is a challenging task due to the intrinsically irregular shape and inhomogeneous surface distribution of neutral, charged, hydrophobic amino acid residues.

Inom fysiken används ofta hårda sfärer som modellsystem för att beskriva beteenden och strukturer hos grundläggande byggstenar såsom atomer och molekyler. Dessa sfärer kan ses som en samling biljardbollar och kan därav bara organiseras på ett begränsat antal sätt. Med den ökade förståelsen för många komplexa fysikaliska fenomen och den snabbt växande utvecklingen av nya material behövs modellsysteSoft and deformable ionic microgels such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid), PNIPAM-co-AA, microgels have shown to be a versatile alternative to the already well-established hard sphere model systems. Their tuneable interaction potential makes them well suited as model systems to study the phase behaviour found for particles interacting via a soft isotropic potential. This stems from t
Projektet HITS/Transparens utforskar hur frivillig användning av informations- och kommunikationsteknologi av privata aktörer kan förbättra informationstransparens i transport av farligt gods. Detta tillvägagångssätt skiljer sig från en lång rad projekt som sedan 80-talet haft ett centralt myndighetsperspektiv på informationshantering kring farligt gods. I linje med tidigare resultat inom forsknin
Syftet med denna sammanläggningsavhandling är att belysa de etiska, juridiska och politiska konsekvenserna av olika försök att hantera lidande hos djur orsakat av industriell djurproduktion. På basis av kvalitativa studier utförda i Danmark undersöker avhandlingen hur skötseln av lantbruksdjur förhandlas inom olika sociala domäner. För detta ändamål använder avhandlingen rättssociologiska och tvärThis compilation thesis aims to develop an understanding of the ethical, legal and political implications associated with different strategies to address the suffering of animals caused by industrialised agriculture. Based on qualitative analysis conducted in Denmark, the research explores how ethical commitment to the situation of farmed animals is negotiated across different domains. The thesis
This chapter introduces the concept of projectification, a concept that aims to capture an increasing reliance on ‘the project’ in our contemporary societies and economies. A project is often thought of as a temporary endeavour undertaken to create a unique product, service or result. However, sometimes ‘the project’ refers to something less tangible, to a discursive theme in contemporary society This chapter introduces the concept of projectification, a concept that aims to capture an increasing reliance on ‘the project’ in our contemporary societies and economies.

Coherent InP nano-sized islands, embedded into GaInP, have been grown by metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy using the Stranski-Krastanow growth mode. Photoluminescence, atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy studies show that the insertion of a thin similar to 4 monolayer thick GaP layer affects the critical thickness of the subsequently deposited two-dimensional InP wetting Coherent InP nano-sized islands, embedded into GaInP, have been grown by metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy using the Stranski-Krastanow growth mode.

This article addresses the gap in knowledge about how new digital technology affects decision making and social caseworkers’ professionalism. The aim is to enhance the understanding of how digital discretion—as a result of introducing automated decision making (ADM) in social assistance—affects the roles, work processes and professional judgements of social caseworkers in the provision of social a
This chapter examines if identity is as important as is often claimed, and as a consequence, when and why concerns of identity are triggered in working life, and we do so through a constructionist identity perspective. In the chapter, we argue that many people do not necessarily engage with their identities most of the time and explore why they do in certain kinds of jobs and in particular situati
Att analysera och värdera räddningstjänstens operativa förmåga är nödvändigt för att tydligt och transparent kunna dimensionera verksamheten. I den här rapporten presenterar vi ett förslag på hur sådana analyser och värderingar kan genomföras med fokus på skydd mot olyckor och kommunal räddningstjänst. Rapporten är framtagen på uppdrag av Malmö stad och Lunds kommun, vilket innebär att den data so
One of the challenges of establishing an industrially competitive process to ferment lignocellulose to value-added products using Saccharomyces cerevisiae is to get efficient mixed sugar fermentations. Despite successful metabolic engineering strategies, the xylose assimilation rates of recombinant S. cerevisiae remain significantly lower than for the preferred carbon source, glucose. Previously,
I svenska vägtunnlars trafikutrymme ska det finnas utrymningsbelysningsarmaturer i form av vägledande utrymningsljus. För Trafikverkets vägtunnlar styrs utformningen av innehållet i SS-EN 16276:2013 om utrymningsbelysning i vägtunnlar. I denna standard föreskrivs dock endast en minsta ljusstyrka (motsvarande 1 candela i alla riktningar som de kan ses från en utrymmande person), vilket är ett mycke
Sorption isotherms describe the relation between the equilibrium moisture content of a material and the ambient relative humidity. Most materials exhibits sorption hysteresis, that is, desorption give higher equilibrium moisture contents than absorption at equal ambient climate conditions. Sorption hysteresis is commonly evaluated by determination of an absorption isotherm followed by desorption sSorption isotherms describe the relation between the equilibrium moisture content of a material and the ambient relative humidity.

Previous research has described that disordered eating (DE) is common in adolescents, especially in girls. DE is defined as maladaptive behaviours (e.g., vomiting) and negative attitudes toward eating and one’s body shape, appearance, and weight. The present thesis had several aims. First, to validate a Swedish version of a Danish 8-item screening inventory, Risk Behaviour for Eating Disorders/RiB
