Har konsumtionen av rött kött förändrats i svenska grundskolor de senaste åren?

Pupils have gotten school meals in Sweden since the late 1800´s. The school meal has of course changed over the years. In the beginning the pupils only got porridge and milk. Since then they serve both meat-, fish- and chicken dishes. In recent years, many schools around the country are more concerned about the environment and therefore started to serve more plant-based diets and less red meat. Re

Utilization of -1 frameshifting to construct an expression reporter for capsid proteins

Virus capsids shows promise within a wide variety of applications. However, the current lack of understanding about their self-assembly limits their usefulness. A study of the amino acids relevant for their assembly would be of great use by giving insight to the mechanic behind it. Since the number of proteins involved in each capsid is so big, there is a need for a reporter system enabling easy a

The Visibility Paradox - Escaping the Panopticon of Enterprise Social Networks

In this thesis, we present a new perspective on the visibility of communication in Enterprise Social Networks (ESNs).

Struggling for an ideal dialogue. An analysis of the regional dialogue processes under Sweden’s first National Forest Program

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. Previous research shows that Swedish forest policy has so far been unable to resolve the tensions between its production and environmental goals. I aim to investig

Vesterport

This thesis seeks to investigate what kind of planning Vesterport needs today. This thesis proposes to cover the rain tracks and create an overall urban planning that not only connects ends, but also links the existing. The ends being connected by infrastructural and nature grips, where a new promenade connects the area to the historical urban ring structure of Copenhagen. The promenade connects

Vad upplever patienter som hjälpsamt i KBT?

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka vad patienter som genomgått kognitiv beteendeterapi (KBT) upplevde som hjälpsamt i sina terapier. Studien är gjord som en kvalitativ studie med semistrukturerade intervjuer av fyra patienter. Intervjuerna spelades in på band, som sedan transkriberades.

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

Synthesis of fluorescent xylosides

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
