NIB - Visualisering av biologins många ansikten. Livsvetenskaperna är ett samlingsnamn för forskningsgrenar som studerar biologiskt liv och dess förutsättningar. Området har vuxit snabbt de senaste åren och stora landvinningar har gjorts med ny teknisk utveckling. Teknikerna är dock behäftade med viss osäkerhet, då det kan vara svårt att skilja biologiska fynd från tekniska störelement. Jag har dLife-sciences have developed at a rapid pace during recent years. From experiments investigating single molecules such as proteins or single genes to large scale projects mapping entire organisms in one single experiment. However, data generated from this kind of large scale projects need to be interpreted and integrated with the base of prior knowledge in an efficient, reliable and correct way. T

Sverige har som en del i EU:s fria rörlighet stiftat utlänningslagen kapitel 3a som reglerar rätten för EES-medborgare att uppehålla sig, och arbeta i Sve-rige utan uppehålls- eller arbetstillstånd. Frågan som behandlas i denna upp-sats är om en person med dubbla medborgarskap kan klassas som förmånstagare enligt rörlighetsdirektivet och hur rättstillämpningen ser ut för dem, till skillnad från deAs a part of the EU's free movement, EU-citizens can reside and work in Sweden without a residence or work permit. The question addressed in this essay is whether a person with dual citizenship can be classified as a benefi-ciary according to the free movement directive and how the application of the law differs for them compared to those with only one citizenship. A citi-zen with an additiona

The Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 significantly changed the Swedish security environment and prompted Sweden to apply for membership in NATO. The military budget has since doubled, and procurement of military equipment has increased by three times. Thereby Sweden had begun its most extensive military build-up since the 1950s and its policy of non-alignment that had persisted for over 200 yea

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate how metastases in the seven topographical regions of the simplified peritoneal cancer index (sPCI) affect the survival of patients treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal (CRC) or appendiceal cancers.Methods: Data was collected retrospectively from patient rec

Popular Abstract in Swedish The phenol oxidase “laccase” was first described towards the end of the 19th century from the wound sap of the lacquer tree Rhus vernicifera. However, its use in one of the oldest biotechnologies, i.e. the making of lacquerware in East-Asia, dates back to 5000-6000 BC. The enzyme has the widest distribution in nature among the multicopper oxidases. It catalyzes one elecLaccase, the phenol oxidizing enzyme, was first described towards the end of the 19th century from the wound sap of the lacquer tree Rhus vernicifera. The enzyme has the widest distribution in nature among the multicopper oxidases. It catalyzes single electron transfer oxidation in the presence of molecular oxygen producing water as by-product. Based on these highly desired mild oxidising conditio

Lignin oxidation was enzymatically monitored by measuring methanol released during the reaction. The methanol was oxidized to formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide, and the latter used to oxidize ABTS to a product measured spectrophotometrically. The efficiency was comparable to the commonly used gas chromatography method. The assay was fast and inexpensive.

Where does generalized trust—that is, the inclination to place trust in strangers—come from? Our claim is that in economic action, sources of generalized trust may not differ much from the sources of personalized trust. Contrary to a common assumption of a sharp distinction between personalized and generalized trust, we assert a likely spillover effect from relational exchange to a person’s expect

Stamceller är celler som kan omvandlas till vilken celltyp som helst, vilket gör dem mycket användbara inom olika medicinska behandlingar och undersökningar. Stamceller kan exempelvis behandla cancer och diabetes, men skulle även kunna användas till att bota förlamning. Idag pågår det mycket forskning kring hur vanliga celler kan omvandlas till stamceller. Genom att manipulera mängden olika transkSince stem cells have many applications in medicine and can be used for treating e.g. cancer and diabetes, finding efficient methods for producing them is a relevant area of research. Cell reprogramming is such a method and our collaborators recently showed that adding Hic2 to the existing protocols of methods increases the efficiency from 1% to 10%. In this thesis, I aim to investigate how an add

Brevmall A. Reading course in Classical anthropological theory (PhD level) A third level (PhD) “reading course” does not involve any teaching and typically only has one or a few participants taking part in the course. A reading course for 7,5 credits should cover an ambitious and demanding reading material, which exact page number can vary depending on the nature of texts (i.e., heavy dominance of

In the fall of 2007 a collective of artists in southern Sweden made waves for themselves by attempting to construct a rather unique ‘club-format’ unlike any other in the [then] current Swedish underground club scene. Guided mainly by a self-proclaimed ‘notion of confusion’ as its foundational principle, the collective behind Klubb Kristallen branded itself as an aspiring anti-club by seeking to ch

This paper re-focuses the Silk Road discussions from the position of contemporary art in Central Asian region. Since the late 1980s contemporary art in Central Asia boomed and it eventually became an alternative public space for the discussion of cultural transformations, social and global processes and problems that local societies faced. Initially the questions raised by many artists concerned i

Propionibacterium acidipropionici produces propionic acid from different sugars and glycerol; the production can be improved by high cell density fermentations using immobilized cells that help to overcome the limitations of the non-productive lag phase and product inhibition. In this study, the use of stress factors to induce P. acidipropionici to form biofilm and its use as an immobilization pro

The part of a structure which separates two floors is called a slab. A type of concrete slab that is becoming increasingly popular is hollow core slabs. A hollow core slab consists of slabs of 1,2 m width placed next to each other, and the space that is created between the slabs is filled with concrete after mounting. The hollow core slab transfers horizontal forces, such as wind load and earth pr

Likt andra komplexa, flercelliga organismer, består den mänskliga kroppen av en mängd olika organ ämnade för olika uppgifter. För att kunna utföra dessa uppgifter är organen uppbyggda av olika sorters celler, med speciell funktion och struktur. Trots de stora skillnaderna mellan dessa celltyper delar de samma genetiska ritning, organismens genom. Genomet är indelat i olika gener, vilka beskriverMaintenance of stem cell pluripotency and the differentiation of stem cells into specialised cells has been studied extensively. More recently, the possibility for a specialised cell to be transferred into a state of induced pluripotency has been demonstrated and investigated. Critical components of the gene regulatory networks governing these processes have been identified, but a complete model h
