Spx or why bacteria don’t suffer from burnout Bacteria also suffer from stress. In general, any fluctuation in the environment of bacteria can cause stress on them. For instance, too hot or too cold temperature, or changes in the pH. In order to survive, they need mechanisms to cope with it. Most of these mechanisms involve proteins, which can be seen as tools that respond to stress. In the bac
The social and environmental impacts associated with corporate water use and discharge in Kazakhstan is historically high, and in certain watershed pose a significant threat to the health of the local communities and ecosystems. Today the industries are consuming almost a third of freshwater and remain one of the biggest polluters in the country. The situation is aggravated with the changing clima
Ett hatbrott är något utöver andra brottsliga gärningar. Hatbrott bygger på sociala kategoriseringar i negativ bemärkelse, där gärningspersonens upp-fattning om rättsskyddsubjektet som normbrytande leder till ett brottsligt angrepp. Sociala kategoriseringar speglar bakomliggande samhällsstrukturer, och gärningen drabbar indirekt hela den grupp som individen anses tillhöra. Den här uppsatsen syftarHate crimes are predicated on different motives than ‘other’ criminal offenses. Hate crimes are based on social categories in a negative sense, where the offense is committed due to the perpetrator’s prejudice or bias against a group of people. This type of prejudice reflects underlying social structures. This thesis aims primarily to investigate and review hate crime as a legal construction in a
My master’s thesis project is an exploration of how a new distributon model could be implemented in a swedish local food chain in order to make local food accessible and attractive to a larger group of people. The interest in local food is increasing rapidly in Sweden. Farmers are turning directly to consumers for increased profit and less pressure from the industry. At the same time consumers ar
Spindeln i nätet Föreliggande kandidatuppsats undersöker mellanchefens kommunikativa betydelse i en förändringsprocess med hjälp av fallorganisationen Orango AB. Tidigare forskning har belyst att mellanchefen har en betydande roll i en förändringsprocess men trots det finns det lite forskning gällande deras mångtydiga roll. Studiens syfte var därmed att skapa förståelse för hur mellanchefen upplevThe spider in the net In this bachelor thesis the middle manager's communicative role during change management was investigated at the case organization Orango AB. Previous research has determined that the middle manager has a significant role in a change process, but despite this, there is little research regarding their ambiguous role. Thus, the purpose of the study was to create an understa
Forskning inom interstellära objekt, det vill säga objekt som har sitt ursprung utanför vårt solsystem, har pågått under decennier, men det var inte förrän 2017 som det första interstellära objektet i solsystemet upptäcktes. Det fick namnet 1I/'Oumuamua och skapade ett stort intresse både inom forskarvärlden och hos allmänheten. Två år senare, 2019, upptäcktes det andra och senaste interstelläResearch on InterStellar Objects (ISOs) has been done for several decades, however, the first observed ISO in the Solar system was only recently discovered in 2017. It was named 1I/'Oumuamua and was only passing though the Solar system, but this may not be the case for all objects of its kind. For instance, one could gain a bound orbit around the Sun if the right amount of nudge is acquired wh
Many coastal areas in Vietnam suffer from erosion. One of the worst affected areas is the Hai Hau beach, located in the Red River delta in northern Vietnam. Over the last hundred years, vast parts of the beach have eroded at an average rate of approximately 25 m per year. Important agricultural land has vanished into the sea and families have been forced to abandon their houses. The cause of the
With significant changes expected in the earth's global climate over the next century, due to global warming, and its resulting changes in the frequency and amount of precipitation, there has been growing concerns on climate change impacts on water resources. Especially concerned to water managers and governments is the potential impacts on groundwater aquifers since they are the main availabl
A powerful cartel forces customers to pay significantly more for products and eliminates competition since its participants do not need to improve their productivity or the quality of their products. Cartels have historically exercised great influence over the international economy. During the inter-war period cartels were so powerful that economists have estimated that international cartels contr
The issue of possession of the air has been debated over literally thousands of years. The Romans debated the ownership of the air above their cornfields. When man finally could construct aircraft, in this case a balloon, heavier-than-air in the 1780's it did not take long before the first regulation came into force. The issue of state sovereignty had been discussed since the national states s
With an annual production of 1.4 million tonnes of fish, Morocco is currently the largest seafood producer in African and Arab countries. However, a vast majority of fish labelled as Moroccan come from the maritime zone of Western Sahara, the last non-self-governing territory in Africa that has been occupied by Morocco since 1975. Furthermore, the fish stock off the Western Saharan coast is at the
I övergången till en cirkulär ekonomi använder industrier i allt högre grad återvunnet material för att minska klimatpåverkan från sina produkter. Den ökade efterfrågan på återvunnet material drivs av både EU-direktiv och konsumenters preferenser. Både flask- och polyesterfiberindustrin ser potential i att möta EU:s krav och konsumenters efterfrågan genom att ersätta jungfruligt material med återvIn the transition towards a circular economy, industries are increasingly adopting recycled materials to decrease the climate impact of their products, driven by both regulatory requirements and consumer demand. The bottle and polyester fiber industries both recognize the potential to comply with EU policies and consumer preferences by replacing virgin material with recycled PET. Due to its desira
Denna uppsats undersöker hur reformen "snabbare lagföring" förhåller sig till rätten till rättvis rättegång enligt artikel 6 i Europakonventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna. Studien fokuserar särskilt på de två nya instituten tillgänglighetsdelgivning och förhandsgodkända strafförelägganden och analyserar hur dessa påverkar balansen mellan effektivitet i brottmålsprocessen oThis thesis examines how the Swedish criminal justice reform “Faster Prosecution” aligns with the right to a fair trial under Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights. The study specifically focuses on two new legal institutes: notification service availability of documents and pre-approved penalty order approvals, analyzing how these affect the balance between efficiency in criminal p
Europeiska unionens kommande utmaning av att möta och bekämpa klimatförändringar har resulterat i att frågan om vilka förutsättningar som finns för att beakta hållbarhetsaspekter inom ramen för tillämpningen av unionens konkurrensregler hamnat alltmer i fokus. Den 1 juni 2023 antog Europeiska kommissionen reviderade riktlinjer för tillämpningen av artikel 101 i fördraget om Europeiska unionens funThe European Union’s upcoming challenge in addressing and combating climate change has brought the question of under which conditions sustainability aspects can be considered in the application of the Union’s competition rules increasingly into focus. On June 1, 2023, the European Commission adopted revised Guidelines on the applicability of Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the Euro
Galectins are small, carbohydrate-binding proteins widely distributed among different cells and tissues in the human body. Due to their abundance, these proteins are involved in many processes and diseases. Among the different types of galectins found in the human body, galectin-1 and galectin-3 are the most common, thus the most targeted and studied. Particularly, galectin-3 is the only chimeric
Enhancing protein structure solutions in experiments with AI Machine learning approaches are gaining in popularity to solve previous complex and difficult problems with an ease. AlphaFold is one representative example, by using machine and deep learning to predict three-dimensional structures of biological molecules, mainly proteins, with high accuracy. Because the predicted structures are often
Since the feminist movement developed today, women still face the challenges of gender inequality. In some countries, women even cannot see the hope for change. Hence, when aiming to counteract gender inequality, it is important to address the macro level and the micro level. The research focuses on the micro level of resistance to gender inequality instead of large-scale protest movements to exp
