Det finns många svårigheter med att tillverka livsmedelsprodukter som är emulsioner. Syftet med detta projekt var att utveckla en emulsion enligt krav som beställaren av produkten hade satt upp. En första utveckling av produkten skedde ungefär ett år tidigare, och den fortsatta utvecklingen baserades alltså på denna produkt. Det som hade blivit ett problem med den första utvecklade produkten var aIt is a difficult process to create a drinkable food product that is an emulsion. The aim with this project was to create one, containing ingredients on levels described by a customer. A product had been developed before, but resulted in a product that had viscosity that was too high, and the aim with this further development project was to keep the levels of the ingredients on a level according t

This qualitative study is about the individual supportive conversation with the school welfare officer in upper secondary school. The main aim of the study was to find out what the pupils get out of a series of conversations with the school welfare officer and what it means for the pupils that the welfare officer belongs to the school organization. Six qualitative interviews were held with pupils

The importance of gender differences during conflict and peace-building have raised as a specific area of study both in the academy as well as among global institutions such as the UN. Among those, there is almost a pre-assumption that strengthening women's movements is positive for a peaceful and just solution. However, they fail to address the complex relationships between the conflicting pa

Coniferous as spruce (more specifically Norway spruce, Picea abies) and deciduous species like European beech (Fagus sylvatica) and oak (Quercus spp.) co exist in south Sweden. In perspective of climate change, species composition of Swedish forests is assumed to change. Observed climate on the period 1950-2010 prove that a general warming trend is occurring in southern Sweden, and that vegetation

This study's primary objective was to understand how remittances from international labour migration influences the capabilities of Kenyan returnees from the Middle East. The study examined how migrants and their families used the money they sent home, what kind of education they got, how they got medical care, and how they started businesses. Sen's capacity approach and the new economics

I denna studie har 88 körningar i en körsimulator analyserats i syfte att undersöka hur utformningen av en cirkulationsplats påverkar förarens val av ingångshastighet. Aspekterna radiestorlek, antal körfält och mötande trafik var av intresse och justerades i testerna. Syftet var att sedan ställa datan för varje parameter mot varandra och därmed kunna ta fram ett resultat. Simuleringsmiljön byggdIn this examination 88 test-drives in a driving simulator have been analyzed with the purpose to research if the design of a roundabout will affect a driver’s entry speed. The aspects size of the radius, number of lanes and oncoming traffic was of interest and were adjusted within the tests. The purpose was to collect data from every parameter and then compare them to each other to get a result.

The objective of this thesis was to examine what recipients of aid from Swedish Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) think about the support and about their possibilities to be independent after the support has been withdrawn. The research questions were: What is the purpose of the aid, from the recipients' point of view? What is the recipients' view of their future as self-supporting and

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Streptococcus pyogenes, eller grupp A streptokocker, är en av de vanligaste sjukdomsframkallande bakterierna hos människan. De orsakar ofta relativt harmlösa och lättbehandlade ytliga infektioner i hals (halsfluss) och hud (svinkoppor) men kan också ge djupare och livshotande infektioner. Dessutom förekommer följdsjukdomar efter infektioner med grupp A streptoPathogenic bacteria often produce potent proteases capable of destroying host tissue thereby providing the bacteria with tools for spreading and nutrient access. This thesis describes how group A, C and G streptococci can acquire surface bound protease activity through an alternative mechanism, namely by binding and activation of the human protease precursor plasminogen. Group A streptococci of c

This paper describes the participatory process of developing and implementing a prototype model aimed at supporting the Integrated Sustainability Assessment of water resources and policy options at different scales. The model - called the World Cellular Model (WCM) focuses on the representation of agents’ behaviours and their systemic relationships with their environment. This is achieved by exami

Action research brings to the fore questions regarding both the power over knowledge building and, consequently, questions on the quality of knowledge. Action research makes visible two dimensions that in this regard are significant. First, the dimension outside-inside where action research more than traditional research voice an inside perspective. This means that those on whom research is conduc

Recent emission legislation in the marine sector has emphasized the need to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions as well as sulphur emissions. The fulfilment of emission legislation limits with conventional marine diesel oil (MDO) requires complex and expensive aftertreatment systems and in this framework lean burn pilot ignited dual fuel (diesel and natural gas) is revealed as one of the most s

The rd3 mouse is one of the oldest identified models of early-onset retinal degeneration. Using the positional candidate approach, we have identified a C -> T substitution in a novel gene, Rd3, that encodes an evolutionarily conserved protein of 195 amino acids. The rd3 mutation results in a predicted stop codon after residue 106. This change is observed in four rd3 lines derived from the original

The Arctic Ocean Expedition of 2001 (AOE-2001) to the central Arctic mostly north of latitude 85°N was conducted to study marine life forms and their products in water and ice, how their products may get into the air, the evolution of the particles produced, and their growth up to sizes large enough for activation into clouds. The expedition also investigated whether these naturally generated part

Female students' traditional and non-traditional choices of education is the subject of this study. Facing difficult choices on different levels of the educational system girls often, statistically, make traditional choices, but they also in different ways break traditional patterns. The study takes its starting-point in the following issues: What is the girls' understanding of the formal liberty

B cells play a pivotal role in adaptive immune system, since they maintain a delicate balance between recognition and clearance of foreign pathogens and tolerance to self. During maturation, B cells progress through a series of developmental stages defined by specific phenotypic surface markers and the rearrangement and expression of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes. To get insight into B cell proteome d

PURPOSE: To describe and analyze how women with breast cancer experience breathing adapted radiation therapy (BART) and to explore how women manage daily radiation therapy. METHOD: Individual interviews were conducted with 20 women treated with BART for breast cancer concerning their perception of radiation therapy. The transcribed interviews were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. RESUL

A gardener in Småland, southeastern Sweden, tells that her father cultivated a double daylily, Hemerocallis fulva, with variegated leaves in Stockholm in the mid 20th century. When she moved to Småland, 45 years ago, she brought a piece of his plant with her, and later on she has spread the plant to others. This daylily, known as "Kwanso Variegata", was first found in Japan in 1776, and since then

Hon kallar sig själv en "slow starter". Efter gymnasiet gjorde Emelie Strömshed ett aktivt val att resa, jobba och bo utomlands. Fyra år senare var det dags att börja studera, och valet föll på civilingenjörsutbildningen i Maskinteknik med teknisk design på LTH.
