Pentaklorfenol (PCP) är en klorerad aromatisk förening som användes flitigt för att behandla trä mot mikrobiell nedbrytning innan den blev förbjuden på 70-talet. På grund av dess höga löslighet förekommer PCP som en grundvattenförorening kring äldre sågverk. Hjortsberga i södra Sverige är ett exempel på denna typ av förorening och är det område som undersöks i arbetet. Förorenat grundvatten spridsPentachlorophenol (PCP) is a chlorinated aromatic compound that was commonly used for treatment of wood against microbial degradation before it got banned in the 1970s. Due to its solubility in water, PCP is a common groundwater contaminant around old sawmills, for example near Hjortsberga in southern Sweden where this study was performed.. The contaminated groundwater is spreading and leaking int

The World Health Organization has reported around 50 million people worldwide suffer from epilepsy. Epilepsy is a neurological disorder caused by abnormal brain activity that leads to spontaneous seizures. The complications that arise with epilepsy can heavily limit the quality of life for those affected and can lead to death. The seizures that occur are due to an imbalance of hyper excitatory neu

Guardian proteins help or hinder clumpy proteins? Proteins are products encoded by DNA in cells. They need to be folded in a certain structure to perform their function in the cell. Because of this, the proteins need a quality control system to ensure that they are folded correctly. A large group of proteins called as chaperones are important in this regard. The main role of chaperones is to fold

När brottsutredande myndigheter använder hemliga tvångsmedel kan det framkomma uppgifter som saknar samband med det brott som föranlett tvångsåtgärden men som kan vara av relevans för andra brottsutredningar. Sådan så kallad överskottsinformation är särskilt känslig ur integritets- och rättssäkerhetssynpunkt eftersom uppgifterna har inhämtats utan vare sig rättens eller den berördes tillstånd. UpWhen law enforcement authorities use secret coercive measures, information may emerge that is unrelated to the crime that induced the coercive measure, but which may be relevant to other criminal investigations. Such so-called surplus information is obtained without permission of the court or the person concerned. Therefore, it is particularly sensitive and risks entailing excessive interference w

The Coronavirus pandemic, its consequences and the various governmental responses to it have had an undisputed impact on our lives, societies and economies during the first half of 2020. By analysing a selection of press conferences held by Swedish authorities during April of 2020 through the lens of Michel Foucault’s theories on the exercise of societal power and on the means and ends of governme

This paper examines to what extent a government decision concerning a debated climate issue was a result of the efforts of a climate justice campaign. In 2017, a campaign organisation was launched under the name ‘Fossilgasfällan’, and two and a half years later the Swedish government essentially met their most important demand. I argue that this was very likely indeed a consequence of a sustained

I svensk rätt finns ingen arvsrätt för sambor. Om samborna har bröstarvingar saknar de möjlighet att testamentera hela kvarlåtenskapen till varandra på grund av bröstarvingarnas rätt att få ut sin laglott. Uppsatsens syfte är att diskutera efterlevandeskyddet för sambor och om det är ändamålsenligt givet en modern syn på samboskap. Genom att studera gällande rätt och förarbeten identifieras vilkIn Swedish law, there is no right of inheritance for unmarried cohabitants. If the cohabitants have direct heirs, the cohabitants lack the opportunity to leave their entire estate to each other due to the heirs’ right to receive their statutory share of inheritance. The aim of this essay is to discuss the survivors’ protection for cohabitants and whether it is appropriate given a modern interpret

Borgen är en form av säkerhet till förmån för kreditgivare. En borgensmans åtar sig att uppfylla en annan persons förpliktelse, vanligtvis att betala en penningskuld. Det innebär att kreditgivare kan återfå försträckta belopp, även om kredittagaren inte kan betala tillbaka. En borgensman står inte nödvändigtvis att vinna på sitt åtagande, men riskerar likväl att finna sig i ekonomiskt trångmål om A guarantee is a form of security for the benefit of creditors. The guarantor commits to fulfil the obligations of another, commonly a repayment obligation. The creditor can then direct his claims towards the guarantor, if the debtor is unable to repay. A guarantor does not necessarily stand to gain from the commitment, but reversely stands the risk of economic strain if fulfilment of the guarante

Over just a few years, methods to manipulate videos have become so sophistica- ted that even someone without much expertise or computational resources can forge videos inseparable from pristine ones to the human eye. These methods can for instance insert a person in a video or manipulate their lip movements to make them say anything of the manipulator’s liking. Though there exist harm- less and co
