In this thesis, polymerisation techniques or deposition methods have been developed permitting the creation of thin molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) films or patterns and their interfacing with transducer surfaces for biosensor applications. The creation of ultra thin films has been achieved using two different techniques, spin-coating and in-situ polymerization of thin films of monomers conta

Kan populärvetenskapligt skrivande bidra till en bättre ämnesförståelse? Kan det bidra till att öka kvaliteten även på det vetenskapliga skrivandet? Vilken roll spelar lärarens eller handledarens återkoppling under skrivprocessen för lärandet? Hur kan populärvetenskaplig kommunikation integreras i utbildningen? Detta är några av de frågor som denna rundabordsdiskussion kommer att utgå ifrån. Syfte

Popular Abstract in Swedish Projektet har for avsikt att vardera den elektriska overledningen mellan hjartats formak och hur forsamring av denna overledning bidrar till uppkomsten av attackvis pakommande formaks- flimmer. Studierna har anvant sig av ekg- registreringar fran kroppsytan, registreringar fran hjartats insida, anatomiska dissektionsstudier och djurexperiment. Slutsatser 1. OfiltreratThe aim of this thesis was to evaluate the role of interatrial conduction defects in the genesis of lone paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) using combined approach of non-invasive signal-averaged P-wave ECG, invasive electrophysiological (EP) studies, anatomical studies and animal experiments. Non-filtered signal-averaged P-wave ECG revealed irregularities in orthogonal P-wave morphology and the

The thesis examine the problem concerning the responsibility of listed companies for false and misleading information in the secondary segments of the stock market.

This work presents an extension of a design procedure for dynamic output feedback design for systems with nonlinearities satisfying quadratic constraints. In this work we used an axial gas compressor model described by the 3-state Moore-Greitzer compressor model (MG) that has some challenges for output feedback control design (Planovsky and Nikolaev 1990), (Rubanova 2013). The more general constra

The article dicusses the etymology of three preliterary Common Nordic prepositions: till 'to', hos 'at', från 'from'. Phonological, morphological, syntactic and semantic aspects are taken into account to explain the grammaticalization processes.

The editors and contributors reflect on ethics and reflexivity in critical management research, and explore the identity of the critical researcher both as an individual and working within collaborative projects. Using contemporary accounts from those engaged in real world fieldwork they outline what critical management is, and explore its relationship to management research. The book discusses t

Classification of song similarities and differences in one bird species is a subtle problem where the actual answer is more or less unknown. In this paper, the singular vectors when decomposing the multitaper spectrogram are proposed to be used as feature vectors for classification. The advantage is especially for signals consisting of several components which have stochastic variations in the amp

The PIXE method constitutes a tool for fast, reliable multi-elemental analysis of small samples. These properties are very attractive in aerosol sciences and in aerosol monitoring programmes. Thus PIXE allows the use of small samplers which are easy to deploy and could be operated for long periods even at more or less remote sites. For working environment aerosols, samplers with time resolution ca

Popular Abstract in Swedish Organisationskreativitet och psykologiskt v älbefinnande. I den föreliggande avhandling föreslås det att hur kreativitet och innovation uttrycks i organisationen är kontextberoende. Att kreativitet och innovation kan bidra till en ekonomisk tillväxt är allmänt känt. I denna avhandling föreslås det att kreativtet och innovation också kan leda till ett bättre psykologisktOrganizational creativity and psychological well-being. Present day organizations in a globalized society are experiencing external challenges and changes more than ever before and in order to adapt and react to these changes creativity and innovation are seen as some of the most important means. The standpoint in this thesis is that all employees have creative potential, and how the creative pote

Popular Abstract in English People normally associate hemoglobin with blood. It is true that the iron in the center of the hemoglobin molecule makes it excellent at carrying oxygen in the bloodstream from the lungs to every part of the body. However, seventy five years ago a hemoglobin was found in a plant. And plants do not have blood. So what is hemoglobin doing in plants? What are its functionsHemoglobins (Hb) are usually associated with blood in humans. However, these proteins are widely distributed among living organisms. In plants the most known group are the leghemoglobins. Still, other Hbs that not participate in symbiosis are also found. They are known as nonsymbiotic Hbs (nsHbs). NsHbs are divided into class-1 and class-2. In this thesis three nsHbs from sugar beet (BvHb1-1, BvHb
