Our key finding is that the visibility of communication can impede active contributions of employees, and he

I Maj 2018 lanserade regeringen en strategi för Sveriges nationella skogsprogram. Som en viktig del av skogsprogrammets implementering initierar Länsstyrelserna nu regionala dialogprocesser för att jobba fram regionala skogsstrategier och handlingsplaner. Tidigare forskning visar att den svenska skogspolitiken hittills inte har lyckats hantera målkonflikterna mellan produktion och miljö. Därför viIn May 2018, a strategy for Sweden’s first National Forest Program was launched. As part of its implementation, County Administrative Boards are now initiating dialogue processes for drafting regional forest strategies and action plans.

Under anaerobic condition the specific growth rate of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 on different sugars, was analyzed using spectrophotometry. Electron acceptor (fructose) supported cells to cope with poor energy recovery by re-oxidising the NADH, thus enabling ATP formation thru acetate production, while fermenting glucose via the phosphoketolase pathway (PKP) and simultaneously operating via E

Kemi och kemikalier är något som är inblandat i vårt dagliga liv mycket mer än vi alla tror. När man hör ordet ”kemikalie”, tänker de flesta på något med ett långt konstigt namn, något onaturligt eller farligt. Men allt är kemikalier och bara för att något har ett svårt namn, betyder det inte att det är farligt. Ett exempel är (2R,3S,4R,5R)-2,3,4,5,6-Pentahydroxyhexanal, eller i folkmun ”glukos” sCarbohydrates are found everywhere. They are the main component in the macromolecules glycosaminoglycans, chains of carbohydrates that make up our cartilage but also play important roles in cancer cell proliferation. Xylose is a carbohydrate which initiates the biosynthesis of these chains by acting as a substrate for the enzyme β4GalT7. Some of these GAG chains become toxic for certain cells. The

The pharmaceutical industry uses animal models in a variety of settings including safety, pharmacodynamic modelling and efficacy. Conventionally, a frequentist design of standard animal experiments of human asthma replication includes repeatedly running treatment groups with the exact layout, focusing on effect size rather than capturing historical data of animal responses on compounds of interest

In this thesis, a magnetic study of two dierent arrangements of Fe3O4 nanoparticles is presented. The nanoparticles are generated using an aerosol technique and guided onto a substrate. The rst sample was produced by guiding the nanoparticles onto the substrate using an electric eld, resulting in large clusters of randomly oriented Nanoparticle (NP). The second sample was created by also applying

Det är väl känt att kolmonoxid (CO) är en giftig och hälsofarlig gas som är luktlös, färglös och smaklös vilket gör den svår att detektera utan analytisk utrustning. Men under senaste åren så har forskning bevisat att i små doser så kan kolmonoxid användas som en terapeutisk substans för att lindra malaria, cancer, lung-, hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar men även reducera mängden inflammatoriska substanseIt is well known that Carbon monoxide is a toxic and hazardous gas, but during recent years it has been proven that using a controlled concentration, carbon monoxide can in fact be used as a therapeutic agent, and can contribute to decrease malaria, treat cardiovascular and lung diseases and potentially even treat cancer, among other things. The main problem in using carbon monoxide directly is th
