Vad gör vi när avgaser och cigarettrök förstört våra lungor? Vad gör vi när behovet av friska lungdonatorer blir för stort? Vi försöker tillverka lungor i labbet såklart! Våra lungor utsätts dagligen för avgaser och andra skadliga ämnen som finns i luften runt omkring oss. För det mesta kan kroppen reparera skadan på egen hand, men allteftersom påfrestningarna blir för stora höjs risken att missThe demand of healthy functional lungs is increasing, requiring a greater need of knowledge about lung tissue regeneration and repair. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) – polysaccharide sidechains found on proteins in the extracellular matrix (ECM) – are believed to be involved in several processes in the lung including cell proliferation, cell differentiation and tissue regeneration. We have developed a

As greenhouse gas emissions are becoming a source of concern renewable fuels are becoming more and more interesting. Methanol is one such fuel. The main benefit of methanol is that it can be produced in two potentially carbon neutral ways. It can be produced from many sources of biomass, including wood, which makes it attractive in Sweden. In a long-term perspective it can also be produced from el

Purpose – The existing literature of open innovation (OI) has focused mainly on large companies and few on SMEs, leaving start-ups with scarce analysis of the use of OI. This paper aims to close that gap and contribute to a better understanding of what drives start-ups to open for innovation, how they use it and comprehend what challenges and benefits OI brings to start-ups.

Vi syftar till att undersöka hur relationella skillnader i två olika anställningsrelationer utspelar sig i praktiken. Sambandet mellan identifierade teman som målsättningar, upplevd rättvisa och individers engagemang undersöks i vår specifika kontext. Vi argumenterar för att tidigare forskning lagt för lite fokus på kombinationen av ett psykologiskt och ekonomiskt perspektiv på anställningsrelatioWe aim to investigate how relational differences in two different employment relations take place in practice. The relationship between identified themes such as goals, perceived justice and individuals' commitment is investigated in our specific context. We argue that previous research has put too little focus on the combination of a psychological and economic perspective on employment relati

The goal of this master's thesis is to detect and position sharp sounds using Axis speakers with built-in microphones. Sharp sounds of special interest are gunshots. The system needs at least five speakers to function and is designed for usage in indoor environments. The project follows a pipeline in order to position sound sources containing recording, synchronisation, detection of gunshot in

E-bikes are getting increasingly more popular and often means a purchase of a brand new e-bike. But what if you could upgrade your already existing bike? Kits that convert standard bycycles are nothing new to the market. However, many suffer from being to technical, making it hard to source the correct parts for the users specific bicycle and specific needs. Other kits are much more user friendly

Där gjorde jag med sex elever en övning utifrån min valda sorts läsundervisning, lässtrategin dialogbaserad strategiundervisning, och en aktuell text om klimathotet. På så

Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka om svenska företag resultatmanipulerar åren innan konkurs. Dessutom syftar denna studie till att undersöka om mängden resultatmanipulering åren innan konkurs korrelerar med hur kapitalintensiva företagen är och med företagens storlek. Metod: Studien har använt den modifierade Jones-modellen för att mäta mängden resultatmanipulering bland 738 svenskaPurpose: The purpose of this study is to examine if Swedish companies perform earnings management four years prior to filing for bankruptcy. This study also aims to examine whether the amount of earnings management before bankruptcy correlates with how capital intense the companies are and the size of the companies.

Do bacteria handle stress better than us? Do bacteria have stress too? Are they able to deal with stress? If so, how do bacteria deal with stress? Certainly, bacteria experience stress too. Bacterial stress can be chemical (caused by toxic, harmful compounds e.g. antibiotics), or physical (caused by heat or harsh environment). Bacteria are pretty smart to handle stress. They have developed specif

Användning av den maltosnegativa jäststammen Saccharomycodes ludwigii för tillverkning av alkoholfri öl, metodutveckling. I detta projekt har en metod utvecklats som ger mikrobryggerier möjligheten att tillverka alkoholfri öl. I takt med att fler blir medvetna om alkoholens negativa effekter, ökar intresset för alkoholfri öl, även hos väldigt små bryggeriet, så kallade mikrobryggerier. Då det kräNon-alcoholic beer is gaining more attention in the brewing industry due to the negative health and economic consequences of alcohol consumption, even smaller microbreweries are showing interest in the production of non-alcoholic beer. Producing non-alcoholic beer has been restricted to the large breweries due to the special equipment needed and the high investment costs, but by using biological m

The purpose of this paper was to develop a better understanding of the discursive, cognitive and emotional experience of symbolic management attempts of strategic change and its enactment in the organizational practice from both a managerial and a non-managerial perspective. To realize this research purpose, we conducted an explorative, ethnographically-inspired qualitative case study in a single

Apoptosis is a vital physiological defence mechanism against tumorigenesis and critical for embryogenesis, tissue homeostasis, and discharging damaged or infected cells. Protein members of the B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) family regulates the cellular commitment to cell survival or programmed cell death by intrinsic (mitochondrial) apoptosis. In response to intracellular stresses, this apoptotic bala

This master thesis report describes a product development process with the aim to create a construction which ensures an easier installation by replacing screws with other alternative assembly methods. The project has been performed at Axis Communications AB, which is the market leading company in network cameras. A previous project called Rocky provided the idea of an excenter lock compressing an
