Actinobacillus succinogenes is a microorganism is a very efficient producer of succinic acid, a chemical with a wide range of industrial applications. The bacterium is prone to form biofilm, a flocculation of cells attached to a surface. In this study, the bioproduction of succinic acid using Actinobacillus succinigenes 130Z was performed in microplate, bottle, and bioreactor systems to gain new i
This product was specifically designed for the astronauts at the ISS (International Space Station) who live in isolated and confined environments with no access to nature. As mission time increases, it becomes crucial to enable astronauts to "feel" nature again. The system consists of a fan+LED product (Micro-air) and a sensor. The fan is used to simulate natural wind, and the LEDs are
Syftet med detta arbete är att utarbeta en kvantitativ aspekt på ikoniska varumärken samt undersöka hur ett varumärkes ikoniska status påverkar deras brand equity. Genom att koppla ikoniska varumärken till brand equity utvecklas en mätbar aspekt av ikonicitet och dess påverkan. Kvantitativ undersökningsmetod med en enkätundersökning som kombinerar det positivistiska och subjektivistiska synsättet
The aim of this study was to provide proposals for renovation measures and investigate to what extent preservation of cultural values can be combined with energy efficiency in an urban transformation projects. The goal was also to develop a strategy for the renovation of k-marked buildings using literature study, case study and parameter study. The case study was based on a 1910s industrial buildi
This research aims to investigate water-based varnishes and technologies to coat fiber-based closures to attain water barrier properties. To ensure recyclability the repulpability of coated and uncoated lids is tested. The research approach is exploratory. The investigation begins with the application of varnishes using a spray gun, brush, and dip coating followed by spraying equipment from Sprayi
Do municipalities in which organized crime is strongly established present lower Covid-19 vaccination rates, as a proxy for government trust? This paper aims to answer this question in the specific case of the Italian region of Sicily. Specifically, the analysis exploits a panel dataset of 390 Sicilian municipalities over 107 weeks (between the 27th of December 2020 and the 1st of January 2023) to
As part of a research grant aimed at producing chicken feed from the novel microalgae Scenedesmus sp., called the ReMAPP project, this thesis investigates opportunities to increase the conservation potential and protein digestibility utilizing solid-state lactic acid fermentation and commercial enzyme additives. The lactic acid fermentation mimics the traditional agricultural ensiling process, whe
In this paper the studied subject is the recent offshoot of incels: gymcels and associated terms such as sigma among others. This study investigates what this subsect implies and does so by defining aspects of conventional incel culture and juxtaposes these with gymcel cultures own differing ones. This includes values, morals, beliefs, concepts and the language used in this community to differ its
Frågeställningar: - Är det gynnsamt att byta till gröna tak på befintliga byggnader i tätbebyggda städer? - På vilket sätt gynnar gröna tak samhället? - Hur skiljer sig kostnaderna mellan ett traditionellt tak och ett grönt tak? - Varför läggs det inte gröna tak på befintliga byggnader i större omfattning? Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka huruvida det är gynnsamt att byta taket på be
Tidigare forskning har visat att patienter inom vuxenpsykiatrisk vård utsätts för kränkningar av vårdpersonal, där dehumanisering och stigmatisering av psykisk sjukdom ses som bidragande faktorer. Denna studie ämnade undersöka om det fanns skillnader mellan anmälningar till Inspektionen för vård och omsorg (IVO) rörande kränkande bemötande jämfört med anmälningar rörande andra bemötandebrister, utPrevious research has shown that patients in adult psychiatric care are subject to abuse by healthcare staff, where dehumanization and stigmatization of mental illness are seen as contributing factors. This study aimed to investigate whether there were differences between reports to the Health and Social Care Inspectorate (IVO) concerning abusive treatment compared to reports concerning other trea
With climate change resulting from a history of uncontrolled greenhouse gas emissions, all parts of society now need to take action - maybe most importantly the private sector. Since 2015 the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative has committed over 5000 companies worldwide to heavily reduce their total emissions at a pace that scientists deem necessary for average global temperature rise to stay
This thesis explores the underlying reasons for recent protests in Peru that began after the ousting of President Pedro Castillo in December of last year. The research is an explorative case study based on the thematic analysis of news articles. By drawing on decolonial theory, social movement theorising, as well as the concepts of identity and place, it examines the context of the protests and th
To accurately determine the efficiency and range of an electric vehicle, one must be able to estimate the rolling resistance of the car. This is currently done using standardized methods developed under laboratory settings, where transient aspects and effects of varying temperatures are excluded. Given the strong correlation between tyre temperatures and the rolling resistance, determining this te
Title: Improving the packaging material availability for internal testing - A case study at Tetra Pak Keywords: Supply chain management, process mapping, procurement, visibility, order handling, supply chain information systems. Background: For any business, optimizing the supply chain is beneficial and can be a crucial competitive advantage. Additionally, the significance of optimization is eve
The influence of Forest Structural Complexity (FSC) on evapotranspiration (ET) was investigated in a mixed forest of Southern Sweden where micrometeorological Eddy Covariance (EC) measurements were conducted for the years 2015 to 2022. For each year, the top 25% of Vapour Pressure Deficit (VPD) were selected to emphasize the response of ET to the driest atmospheric conditions. FSC was quantified u
During the construction, realignment, or widening of roads, various disturbances can occur that affect the market value of nearby properties. These disturbances typically include things such as increased noise, vibration, changes in soil conditions, increased sensitivity to wind, and all contibute to severe disruption of the property. In order to provide appropriate compensation to property owners
The world’s largest democracy, India, is experiencing dwindling civic engagement. Amongst a plethora of factors that could explain this phenomenon, this study has chosen to explore the role of media. While causality isn’t assured, the profound capacity of the media to influence public opinion and action makes it a vital component in understanding public behaviours with respect to civic engagement.
In high energy physics, we want to probe the inner structures and behaviours of the particles that are the building blocks of our universe. This is often done by colliding nuclei together. This bachelor thesis presents an implementation of a Glauber Monte Carlo simulation framework to determine the geometric quantities such as the number of participating nucleons $N_{part}$ and the number of sub-c
