UNLABELLED: Transformation of genetic material between bacteria was first observed in the 1920s using Streptococcus pneumoniae as a model organism. Since then, the mechanism of competence induction and transformation has been well characterized, mainly using planktonic bacteria or septic infection models. However, epidemiological evidence suggests that genetic exchange occurs primarily during pneu

A significant part of the cost of a construction project, up to 90%, consists of purchased goods and services. Suppliers thereby have a large impact on the quality, price and time of projects. Purchasing management is therefore important for the outcome of a project. The aim of research covered by this thesis is to describe and analyse purchasing management and its interrelation with the supplier

Denna studie handlar om att experimentellt karakterisera ett materietillstånd som existerade under de första miljondelarna av en sekund under Big Bang, som vi kallar för Kvark-Gluon-Plasma. Med stora partikelacceleratorer som Large Hadron Collider (LHC) vid CERN, kan vi genom kärnkollisioner med mycket hög energi nå så pass extrema temperaturer och densiteter att vi kan återskapa och studera dettaIn high energy heavy ion collisions, the QCD matter undergoes a phase transition to a hot and dense strongly coupled Quark Gluon Plasma, where quarks and gluons are deconfined in a volume of nuclear dimensions. At intermediate pT, 2 < p T < 8 GeV/c, a decoupling from pure hydrodynamical flow is observed, most noticeable in central collisions, demonstrated by the peak in the ratio of baryons to mes

In 2020, the German government introduced a legislation to phase-out coal mining and combustion by 2038. Expert reports state that this is too late for Germany to meet its obligations from the Paris Agreement. For many people in Lusatia, one of the three coal mining areas in Germany, even the 2038 coal-exit is happening too fast. They fear for their economic and personal future in the coal-mining

This study focuses on the recent Directive (EU) 2019/1023 on preventive restructuring frameworks (‘Preventive Restructuring Directive’) that was adopted by the European Parliament and the Council on 20 June 2019. The purpose of this thesis is to examine and assess the EU legislator’s intentions in harmonisation of national laws on restructuring and to clarify the rationale behind business rescue.

Barnets ställning i det svenska samhället har under de senaste århundradena utvecklats från en obetydlig människa till en individ som spelar en stor roll i människors liv. Denna utveckling är ett exempel på hur mänskliga relationer och sociala processer påverkar hur man ser på olika individer i samhället. Utvecklingen skulle också kunna ses som en bidragande orsak till varför vårdnadstvister har öIn the last centuries, the child´s position in society has evolved from being seen as an insignificant human being to an individual that plays an important role in people’s lives. This development is an example of how social processes and human relations play part in how we see different people in society. The custody disputes in Sweden has increased over the past years. The evolvement of the chil

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that plays a major role in climate change. Significant uncertainty exists in the estimates of emissions from natural methane sources. This uncertainty in data is one of the primary scientific challenges in climate model. Geological seepage considered as the second largest natural source of methane after wetlands and today is recognized as a major contributor to a

Förevarande examensarbete undersöker den sakrättsliga regleringen av specifikation i svensk respektive tysk rätt utifrån två distinkta typfall. Syftet med studien är dels att öka kunskapen om specifikation som rättsligt fenomen, dels att underlätta en utveckling av den svenska rätten genom att undersöka förutsättningarna för en transplantation från den tyska rättens Verarbeitung-institutet. FrågesThis master’s dissertation examines the legal regulation of the original mode of acquisition specificatio in Swedish and German law. The purpose of the dissertation is in part to deepen the knowledge of this important original mode of acquisition, and in part to further the development of Swedish Law by either facilitating or ruling out a transplantation of elements from German Law. The research q

The widespread consequences of climate change are becoming more and more evident around the world and are raising crucial awareness to world leaders that a sustainable transition is direly needed to mitigate against disastrous climatic events. In Australia, in early 2020, these events took the form of some of the most devastating and largest forest fires the country has ever seen. This devastation

The parents growing interest towards children clothing has become apparent when following Finnish media during the past years. In similar vein consumer culture literature has noticed the rise of clothing markets for newborns. It is scientifically proven that consumption objects have a significant role in life transitional phases. Symbolic meanings of consumption objects are used to facilitate the

The winter of 2020 was dominated by Canadian and international news coverage about a group of indigenous land defenders in Northern British Columbia, Canada. At the centre of the media frenzy was a pipeline conflict involving an indigenous community, namely, the Wet’suwet’en Nation, and Canada’s largest private sector investment ever which is set to cross directly through Wet’suwet’en territory. T

The purpose with this thesis is to give the reader a holistic view of the 3D-print technology and how it can come to use in the construction industry. The purpose is also to spread knowledge about the technology. During the evaluation of the technology examines four aspects that an innovation needs to establish on the market, the aspects are: geographical resources, economical, law and social impa

Determining fatty acid composition within different lipid classes is a time-consuming process. Generally, normal phase chromatography is used to separate lipids by lipid class, based on differences in polarity. Fractions of this separation are then collected and derivatized into fatty acid methyl esters (FAMES), followed by analysis with gas chromatography and flame ionization detection (GC-FID).

En bärande princip för klanderprocessen är att hovrätten inte får ägna sig åt någon materiell överprövning. I klanderprocesser prövas i huvudsak om det i skiljeförfarandet förekommit något processuellt fel. För prövningen gäller samma processuella regelverk som för tvistemål i underrätt. Ett av de processuella verktyg som kan användas i klanderprocesser är 42 kap. 5 § 1 st. andra meningen RB. Den One of the basic principles of the challenge process is that the Court of Ap-peals should not engage in any substantive review. In challenge proceedings, the focus is on whether there have been any procedural errors in the arbitration process. The same procedural rules that apply to civil litigation in lower courts are also applicable to these reviews. One of the procedural tools that can be used

Skiljeförfarandet är en privat alternativ tvistlösningsmetod, med syfte att snabbt och slutligt avgöra tvister utan insyn utifrån. Från den utgångspunkten är det viktigt att skiljeförfarandet inte följs av en långdragen och offentlig domstolsprocess. Skiljedomar kan därmed inte överprövas på materiella grunder. För att skiljeförfarandet ska vara ett rättssäkert och godtagbart alternativ till domstThe arbitration procedure is a private alternative dispute resolution method aimed at quickly and definitively resolving disputes without external oversight. From this perspective, it is important that the arbitration is not followed by a prolonged and public court process. Arbitral awards, therefore, cannot be appealed on substantive grounds. However, for the arbitration to be a legally secure an

Wildfires are increasing around the world and unlike building evacuations, the wildland urban interface (WUI) evacuations consider vehicle movement alongside the behaviour of wildfires. Tourists, as a diverse population, further complicate WUI evacuations due to factors such as language barriers, unfamiliarity with the area, varying levels of risk awareness, and the lack of access to vehicles. Nev

Thesis Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to explore the effect of informal communication strategies on brand trust from a consumer perspective. Additionally, it aims to further conceptualize brand communication strategies on social media. Methodology: This inductive study applied a qualitative research strategy to obtain an in-depth understanding of consumers’ feeling of brand trust on soci

Understanding and being able to quantify sitting postures is a central asset in car safety evaluations. This is due to the fact that passengers can choose a range of different sitting positions. Studying and understanding how passengers choose to sit to obtain some comfort is important for increased safety in futures cars and is particularly challenging facing a heterogeneous population. Data is a

Möjligheterna för att kränka och förtala andra har ökat väsentligt i och med internets utveckling under 2000-talet. Idag kan ett uttalande eller en integritetskränkande bild spridas över hela världen på bara några sekunder och möjligheterna att ”ta bort” sådana uttalanden har därigenom förändrats. Denna uppsats syfte är att granska det svenska straffrättsliga skyddet mot näthat och undersöka omThe evolvement of the communications technology during the 21st century has created novel ways in which people can harm others. Today a statement or an intimate visual recording can be spread globally in just a few seconds and the possibility to remove such information has thus changed.
