Even though the mammalian heart has been investigated for many years, there are still uncertainties in the fields of cardiac cell biology and regeneration with regard to exact fractions of cardiomyocytes (CMs) at different developmental stages, their plasticity after cardiac lesion and also their basal turnover rate. A main shortcoming is the accurate identification of CM and the demonstration of

Despite the enthusiasm that greeted democratization in Africa and Nigeria in particular, it has turned out that expectation has run contrary with the reality. The wave of democratization in Africa has turned out to be wave of conflict, violence and war. This paper examines the dynamics of fraudulent elections in African most populous nations,Nigeria; a land with great potentials but lacking the fr
Recent studies have shown that increased liquidity is perhaps not always strictly beneficial and that high trading volumes can produce trading noise causing increased volatility above that based on fundamentals. This study investigates whether this applies to the Swedish stock market by analyzing dual-class stocks that have the same cash flow rights but different control rights and different tradi
more and more people being bilingual. Two languages that are often mixed in the United States are English and Spanish. Due to the high population of Spanish speaking immigrants, new words are being formed by mixing the two languages. This can be heard in the areas near the border between the USA and Mexico among other areas. The verb watch in English, which in Spanish would be mirar, becomes wacha
This thesis investigates the current treatment of VAT groups under art.11 of the Recast Directive and enumerates problems relating to the wording and application of the provision in the Member States. Later it offers a preffered treatment based on the interepretation of art. 11 and general principles of VAT law.
Forskning kring tidigt liv möter svårigheter utöver de som forskning kring senare liv ställs inför. På grund av att de tidigaste bergarterna inte finns bevarade har viktig information om jordens tidiga förhållanden för evigt gått förlorad. Dessutom var de tidigaste livsformerna små och morfologiskt enkla, vilket betyder att abiotiska pseudofossil lätt kan infiltrera fossilarkivet. Ett centralt temEarly life research faces additional challenges than those of the study of later life forms. Due to the de-materialization of the earliest rocks, valuable information about the early Earth is forever lost. Furthermore, early life was small and morphologically basic, effectuating abiotic pseudofossils to infiltrate the fossil record. A central theme is the close connection early life research share
I denna uppsats används reflexiva etnografiska metoder för att problematisera relationen mellan bidrag från Väst, den Kenyanska samhälleliga kontexten och HBTQ-organisationer. Ett queerteoretisk, intersektionellt perspektiv används för att undersöka ämnen som bidrag, bidragskrav, mänskliga rättigheter och kulturrelativism för att förstå hur bidrag från Västerländska institutioner som NGOs och myndThis thesis uses reflexive ethnographic methods to problematise the relationship between Western aid, the Kenyan societal context and LGBTI-rights organisations. It takes a queer theoretical intersectional approach to the themes aid and aid conditionality, human rights, and cultural relativism in order to understand how aid from Western institutions such as NGOs and governments affects the work of
Wastewater is an excellent source of nutrients and energy. By treating the wastewater in a clever way, it is possible to both recycle nutrients and recover energy, and thereby create opportunities for a sustainable system. In conventional wastewater treatment where the activated sludge process is used, aeration is needed and a lot of biomass is produced. In regions with warmer climate, or if low-v
This study investigates how regionalism and regional identity is perceived and promoted in the Oresund region including a specific focus on Malmö, particularly from the perspective of the Oresund committee as an actor. The relevance of this focus is sanctioned by reported growth of regionalism in the Oresund region, and the sparse amount of research in whether organizations and their work could be
Polyphenols are a group of compounds that are widely spread in the plant kingdom. These compounds are of great interest for researchers because of their antioxidant properties that are important for both plant life and human health. Sample preparation is a crucial step for the determination of phenolic compounds and their metabolites in biological samples. Methods for isolation and preconcentratio
