Popular Abstract in Swedish Allt eftersom fler och fler organismers totala uppsättning gener, genomet, sekvenseras ökar fokus på att kartlägga de genprodukter, proteiner, som uttrycks. Att kunna studera de proteiner som uttrycks mer eller mindre vid olika tidpunkter eller cellulära tillstånd utgör en viktig del i sökandet efter kunskap om biologiska och medicinska processer. Studier av den totala The study of the protein complement of a genome is called proteomics. Proteomics can be defined as identification, quantification and characterization of a total set of proteins expressed at different time-points or under different cellular states to provide global information about biological processes. The study of membrane proteins is a challenging area in the development of proteomic research.

Since January 1, 2005 all publicly traded companies within the EU must prepare their consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The transition to IFRS brought with it major changes in the accounting for financial instruments through the introduction of the highly controversial accounting standard IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognitio

The paper presents a review of the scientific literature on computer modeling of socio-technical systems. The aim is to briefly review and discuss modeling approaches that are suitable for the simulation of socio-technical systems, specifically in the context of risk and vulnerability analysis of critical infrastructures. It is found that seven main socio-technical modeling approaches can be disce

This thesis presents the works on fabrication and measurements done with micro cantilevers and a micro channel system, fabricated in the photo-resist SU-8. SU-8 is a polymer patterned by UV lithography which offers a cheap and fast processing and is an interesting alternative to standard Si techniques. For the structures intended here, it proved to be a well suited material and promising results w

Vad är det som gör att man begår ett brott? Vad är det för slags person som begår ett brott? Kriminella personer har alltid varit ett intresse för forskning och allmänheten. Det finns förutfattade meningar om hur en kriminell person ser ut eller beter sig. Samtidigt finns det en lika tydlig bild av hur en kvinna eller man ska se ut eller bete sig. En kriminell kvinna går emot alla förväntningar meWhat does it take for a person to commit a crime? What kind of person commits a crime? Offenders have always been interesting for both research and the society. There is a preconceived notion on how an offender should look or act like. At the same time, being a woman or a man comes with equal preconceptions. However, a female offender goes against all expectations of how an offender should act and

De humanitära interventionerna i slutet på 90-talet gav upphov till en mängd diskussioner och skapade skiljaktigheter mellan världens nationer. Till följd av detta inrättades The International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty (ICISS) som i december 2001 introducerade The Responsibility to Protect (R2P). Förslaget som utarbetades omfattar flera aspekter av staters ansvar att agera vThe humanitarian interventions that occurred in the late 90’s gave rise to a variety of discussions and caused divergence between the world nations. Following this the Canadian government formed The International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty (ICISS) which later in December 2001 introduced The Responsibility to Protect (R2P). The presented proposal by the commission comprises se

This study explores an approach for adapting the bundle of capillary tubes soil model for vertical soil solute transport modelling. The soil is split into thin layers allowing vertical water flow between capillaries of differing width with concomitant advective flow of solutes. Diffusion is included to improve realism. Modelling software is developed to apply the proposed adaption. Case studies ar

A model of the Swedish power plant Mälardalen Energi, developed by Solvina AB was simulated in Dymola with different types of control strategies in order to evaluate if they could improve the operational flexibility of the plant and, thus, its ability to deliver frequency control to the Swedish power grid. Several different control strategies and process modifications were tested and compared to p

In order for civilian shipping and aviation to be able to operate within Swedish areas of responsibility, an absolute prerequisite is that the state must maintain a well-functioning sea and air rescue service. This requires constant, thorough surface coverage, year round and around the clock with qualified helicopter resources. Until 2002 Swedish national needs, both military and civilian, were ma

Frågan om gentrifiering och arkitekturens roll för hur stadens förändras ledde mig vidare till den undersökning av konstnärliga verksamheters territorialitet som presenteras i det här arbetet. Gentrifiering är en rumslig förändringsprocess som omstrukturerar staden socialt och materiellt. Konstnärer och konstnärlig verksamhet pekas ofta ut som en viktig inledande faktor för gentrifiering genom att

The U.S. decision to partner with the Kurdish militia YPG to combat ISIS in Syria has caused its longstanding ally Turkey to align with Russia and Iran, and risks doing permanent damage to the NATO-alliance, ostensibly to the detriment of U.S. national interests. Taken at face value, this seems to contradict standard notions in neo-realist theory about state behavior. Given this seeming paradox, a
