Detection of Listeria monocytogenes by the microbiological standard method (ISO 11290-1) is time consuming and requires several days to get results, thus a more rapid detection method is required. The aim of this study is to continue the optimization of a rapid method that is based on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to detect L. monocytogenes in food matrices. The method is based on
Varje år avlider i genomsnitt 100 personer i Sverige till följd av dödligt våld, däribland mord. På senare år har det höjts röster om att de som döms för mord många gånger döms till alltför lindriga straff, med hänsyn till att mord anses vara den mest klandervärda handling en människa kan begå. Följaktligen har lagstiftaren lagt fram ett förslag om att skärpa straffet för mord. I förarbetena framhAbout 100 people die each year in Sweden due to deadly violence such as murder. During recent years some people have claimed that the punishment for murder is not strict enough, considering the fact that taking a life is the most heinous crime that one can commit. Consequently, the Swedish legislator has suggested that the penalty for murder shall become stricter by making life imprisonment the st

This paper is about the issue of responsibility for forcefully displaced in conflict. It highlights the issue of responsibility in regard to forcefully displaced persons as portrayed by the International Monitoring Centre (IDMC). The subject for analysis is IDMC’s report submitted year 2006, which is a summary of forced displacement’s causes and consequences in the Eritrea and Ethiopia conflict (1
This thesis aims to understand the state of the Green Revolution movement in Ghana, with a focus on environmental policy and its potential for future development. The main research question applied is “What is the potential for an environmentally sustainable Green Revolution-type advancement in agriculture in Ghana?”. A quantitative, comparative case study methodology is applied, in which three
Studien utforskade frågeställningen: Vad sker i mötet mellan den psykodynamiska ramen och psykiatrins metaram såsom psykoterapeuter upplever det? Syftet var att bidra till forskningsfältet och använda slutsatser för att utveckla den egna kliniska praxisen. Studien realiserades som en aktionsforskningsstrategi. Det empiriska materialet bestod av sex psykoanalytiskt orienterade, kvalitativa forsknin
Bakgrund: Postoperativa sårinfektioner vid ledkirurgi kan få förödande konsekvenser, då det är svårt att nå en infektion som har spridit sig till en led. Ofta bildar bakterierna biofilm, vilket ökar deras resistens och gör infektionen svår att behandla. Antalet ledplastiker väntas öka framöver, delvis på grund av ökad livslängd. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva operationssjuksköterskans roll i att f
År 2017 togs beslut i Sveriges riksdag att anta ett nytt klimatmål där Sverige år 2045 ska ha noll nettoutsläpp av växthusgaser för att därefter ha negativa växthusgasutsläpp. Utifrån detta mål ställer Trafikverket vidare krav på sin verksamhet och sina väg- och järnvägsprojekt. Trafikverkets mål är att infrastrukturen ska vara klimatneutral till år 2050 med delmål att minska växthusgasutsläppen mIn 2017 the Swedish Parliament implemented a new national goal for limiting climate change. The goal is to have zero net emissions of greenhouse gases by year 2045 which will ultimately lead to negative net emissions. Further, the Swedish Transport Administration adapted the goal of making Sweden’s infrastructure climate neutral by the year 2050, with the milestones of reducing the emissions from
Hälso- och sjukvården präglas av stress och utmattningssyndrom hos sin personal, vilket kan leda till att sjuksköterskor begår medicinska fel samt ger ett oprofessionellt bemötande. Mindfulness kan tänkas vara en metod för att förebygga arbetsrelaterad ohälsa. Syftet var att undersöka hur personer verksamma inom mindfulness upplever metoden samt möjligheten för sjuksköterskor att använda metoden i
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are used to classify directly on bone scan images in two medical tasks: classifying anterior / posterior pose, and classifying bone scan hotspots as metastatic / non-metastatic in patients with prostate cancer and suspected metastatic disease. The networks trained produce highly accurate results in both tasks and current methods are outperformed for all tested
Antioxidants are compounds present in plant, fruit, and vegetables, and they are known for their medicinal benefits such as anti-carcinogenic and anti-fungicidal activity. Most commonly used methods for extractions of such compounds are lengthy due to mass transfer limitations. This study proposes the use of carbon-dioxide expanded liquids (CXLs) as solvent to improve these limitations. Such solve
The purpose of this practical theological master’s thesis is to examine conversation as part of sermon preparation in present day preaching in the Lutheran Church of Sweden. This study combines studies of homiletical literature with qualitative empirical methods, stating that theory and practice informs one another. Through participant observation in Bible study groups and the following Sunday’s s
Bakgrund: Ett fungerande aktivitetsmönster med aktivitetsbalans i vardagen kan vara svårt att uppnå för vem som helst. För en person som elitsatsar inom paraidrott, kan det vara en ännu större utmaning. Paraidrott är idrott som har anpassad utrustning eller anpassade regler för att öka tillgängligheten. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att bland paraidrottare på elitnivå undersöka upplevda möjli
Biodiesel is an important alternative to ordinary diesel when limiting the effects on the climate. However, the production path of biodiesel produces a wastewater with a high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and it needs to be cleaned. The aim of this study was to characterise biodiesel wastewater as well as to suggest treatment options. The biodiesel wastewater studied came from a biodiesel plant i
Antibodies have proven its usefulness in a variety of technologies, including Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry and Antibody Microarrays. The latter, which has been applied in e.g. biomarker discovery, disease monitoring, prognostics and protein expression profiling, has become a workhorse in affinity proteomics. By recombinantly expressing scFv antibody fragments in E. coli, a high-throughput
The usage of new media spaces has a strong impact in contemporary politics and democracy as political messages are largely exchanged through new communicative spaces of media. These democratized media spaces are also used for counter-democratic communication by right-wing populists around Europe. This thesis is a case study of the Estonian right-wing populist media platform Uued Uudised. The artic
Soft biological tissues and engineered hydrogels for biomedical applications are intrinsically multiphasic materials, consisting of solid, fluid and possibly fixed and mobile ions. Understanding their mechanical behaviour requires experimental methods and theoretical models that take their multiphasic nature into account and allow for quantification of material parameters related to the different
Den här uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka och analysera regleringen kring avdrag för tid i häkte med restriktioner utifrån ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv. Utgångspunkten i svensk rätt är att avdrag för tid i häkte ges med en dag per dag i häktet enligt strafftidslagen. Detta avdrag är obligatoriskt och ges efter det att dom har meddelats. Häktningstiden tillgodoräknas den dömde såsom verkställighet The purpose of this thesis is to examine and analyse the Swedish regulation regarding deduction for pre-sentence custody with restrictions from the perspective of rule of law. The general rule in Swedish law is that deduction for pre-sentence custody is given with one day on the final sentence for each day spent in custody. This deduction is mandatory. The time in pre-sentence custody is credited
