The preferred method for synthesising therapeutic peptides today is by Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS). SPPS is a wasteful process, where the main component of the waste is hazardous solvents, i.e., N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or dichloromethane (DCM). 3 It is therefore desirable to search for new and greener solvents to use for SPPS, which is what has been studied

Den här uppsatsen syftar till att utreda socialtjänstens ansvar för omedelbara omhändertaganden av barn till utsatta EU-medborgare. Socialtjänsten ansvarar för omedelbara omhändertaganden av barn med stöd av 6 § lag med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga (LVU). I ett nyligen avgjort rättsfall från Kammarrätten i Stockholm förefaller detta ansvar inte längre omfatta omedelbara omhändertaganden The aim of this thesis is to investigate the social services’ responsibility for emergency care orders for children of vulnerable EU-citizens. According to 6 § LVU, the social services are responsible for emergency care orders of children. However, in a recently decided case from the Administrative Court of Appeal in Stockholm, this responsibility appears to no longer include emergency care orders

An inverse class D power amplifier and a class A power amplifier are designed at schematic level for 20 dBm power class and NB-IoT specification in 65 nm CMOS technology. A suitable switch mode supply modulator is also designed. Three different efficiency enhancement techniques namely EER, Hybrid EER and ET are studied and the suitable transmitters are simulated for each in Cadence Virtuoso. These

Author: Ebba Eiroff Title: Students narratives of loneliness Supervisor: Kristina Göransson Assessor: Mats Hilte The aim for this qualitative study was to examine university students experiences of loneliness based on Erving Goffman’s dramaturgy theory, together with the conceptions of normality, shame and guilt. How students describe feelings of loneliness and how they relate their experiences t

We present a microgeographic analysis of 34 allozyme loci and the control region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in the common vole Microtus arvalis (Pallas, 1779), performed to assess the effects of environmental heterogeneity on the distribution of genetic variation among populations in the Biebrza river valley, NE Poland The common vole occurs there in two types of habitat open grassland and pastu

Purpose: The aim was to investigate outcomes of powered wheelchair and scooter interventions after 4-months and 1-year use regarding need for assistance when moving around, frequency of mobility-related participation, easiness/difficulty in mobility during participation, and number of participation aspects performed in everyday life. Method: The study was a prospective cohort study, using an instr

Background: Early hospital arrival and rapid intervention for acute myocardial infarction is essential for a successful outcome. Several studies have been unable to identify explanatory factors that slowed decision time. The present study examines whether personality, psychosocial factors, and coping strategies might explain differences in time delay from onset of symptoms of acute myocardial infa

Popular Abstract in Swedish Akrylatallergi Plastmaterial består av stora molekyler som kallas polymerer samt tillsatsämnen som tillsätts för att modifiera materialets egenskaper. Polymerer bildas när det sker en stegvis reaktion mellan monomerer så att större molekyler bildas. Allergiframkallande ämnen i plastsystem kan vara monomererna, härdarna, modifierarna eller andra tillsatsämnen. AkrylaterAcrylate contact allergy has been frequently reported since the 1970s, with hundreds of articles published in dermatology journals so far. The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the frequency of contact allergy to acrylates / methacrylates in patients with exposure to industrial, dental and nail uses of these substances. We also aimed to investigate the clinical and chemical aspects of pa

Diarrhoeal disease is the second leading cau- se of death in children under five years old, and is responsible for killing around 525 000 children every year. The spread of diseases is also a problem in our western society. Thanks to our developed me- dical infrastructure not to the extent as in de- veloping countries. Nevertheless the amount of work and school hours missed because of preven

Over the course of almost four decades the world has been left vulnerable by the HIV epidemic. Displaying the biggest public health challenge currently, many scholars aim to further the understanding of the mechanisms of the spread of HIV. This study aims to contribute to the existing body of literature through adding a spatial aspect to research performed on HIV key drivers in Uganda. Furthermore

In Sweden, hypertension, is one of the most common reasons to attend primary care thus a Swedish public health problem of epic proportions. There is a general consensus about that effective antihypertensive treatment reduces the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and premature death. Non-pharmacological treatment is advocated to be the basis of treatment. The caregiver is responsible for s

A proteoglycan is a protein with at least one glycosidic chain or glycosaminoglycan (GAG) covalently bound to it. Since a common linker between the core protein and the GAG chain has a xylose present, the biosynthesis of GAGs can be primed using xylosides containing hydrophobic aglycons providing that these xylosides are capable of penetrating the cell membrane. 2-naphthyl β-D-xylopyranoside prim

Närståendes närvaro hos patienter som är kritiskt sjuka underlättar enligt studier patienternas vistelse på intensivvårdsavdelningen. För att stödja och tillhandahålla information till de närstående bör personal på intensivvårdsavdelningar vara medvetna om närståendes uppfattningar. I Kanada har ett enkätformulär FS-ICU utvecklats för att undersöka närståendes tillfredsställelse med vården och med

AIM: To evaluate if the incidence of postoperative complications after gastrostomy placement is correlated to perioperative parameters or patient characteristics.METHODS: In this prospective observational study, children <18 years of age planned to receive a gastrostomy at partaking clinics between 2014 and 2019 were invited. Pre-, peri- and postoperative variables were collected and followed up 3

The social dimensions of resilience and their relationship with social capital have received little attention in climate change research. This article aims to provide an understanding of the structural, cognitive, and human rights-based interconnection of social capital and the social dimension of resilience. This article provides a rapid review of published studies on the social dimensions of res

Aim: Studies examining the long-term effects of neonatal music interventions on the cognition of children born preterm are scarce. We investigated whether a parental singing intervention before term age improves cognitive and language skills in preterm-born children. Methods: In this longitudinal, two-country Singing Kangaroo, randomised controlled trial, 74 preterm infants were allocated to a sin
