The former close relation between producer and consumer has gradually disappeared in the industrialisation and globalisation of the food industry. As a result a need for traceability has emerged. It is difficult today for consumers to know if the products they purchase live up to their specifications due to poor communication between the food industry and consumers. This gap between can be address
This thesis describes a series of studies designed to elucidate brain circuitry changes during parr-smolt transformation (smoltification) in salmon. The studies revealed sequential orderly chemical and structural changes of the brain. The first study showed sequential changes in concentration of mu-and kappa-opiate receptors in select cell groups of the brain during various stages of smoltificatio
Sleep restrictions and sleep deprivation have become common in modern society, as many people report daily sleep below the recommended 8 hours per night. This study aimed to examine the effects of sleep deprivation on oculomotor performance by recording smooth pursuit and saccadic eye movements after 24 and 36 hours of sleep deprivation. Another objective was to determine whether detected changes
Shorter product life cycles (Ottosson, 2004) and more diversified offers of products (Olsmats, 2002) are market trends in the present day. Companies have to deal with customers with rapidly changing demands, who are looking for high-quality products at low costs. The ability to rapidly respond to such demands can be referred to as a company’s agile manufacturing abilities. Nagel and Dove (1991) su
There are relatively few studies based on an individual adult perspective on ADHD which takes into account how various factors interact and affect everyday life. Compensatory strategies can facilitate life for people with ADHD and those strategies might include the use of assistive technology or cognitive support. The purpose of this paper is to present and discuss how various factors can facilita
Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI) is a naturally occurring inhibitor of the TF-FVIIa induced coagulation in the presence of FXa. Recombinant two domain TFPI, where Asn 117 on the FXa-inhibitory domain was exchanged to a Gln yielding non-glycosylated TFPI (117QTFPI1-161), was evaluated regarding pharmacokinetics and delayed antithrombotic potential in the rabbit. Pharmacokinetic study 117QTFPI
Family history of depression is an important risk factor for depression. The aim of this study was to examine whether the effect of family history of depression is confounded by individual and familial socioeconomic factors (i.e., country of origin, educational attainment, family income and mobility) and neighborhood environmental factors (i.e., neighborhood deprivation and neighborhood social cap
Since the 1990s, diagnosis-related group (DRG)-based payment systems were gradually introduced in many countries. The main design characteristics of a DRG-based payment system are an exhaustive patient case classification system (ie, the system of diagnosis-related groupings) and the payment formula, which is based on the base rate multiplied by a relative cost weight specific for each DRG. Cases
In China, cosplay, which is originated for Japan’s costume play, has not simply played as another role of pop culture, but it has represented its unprecedented influence among those youngsters to the public with the form of cosplayers’ association. By raising the questions that “why it is so popular” and “why youngsters devote themselves to this cultural activity”, the research is to contribute to
With a pair of intersectional glasses this thesis approaches public policy and processes surrounding it. By asking the following research questions: From an intersectional departing point, which policies are (re-)produced through the street-level bureaucrat? How can this be analyzed with an intersectional departing point? I search for answers within a long-term project which participant's are
The report presents an analysis of how sustainable business models can contribute to the transition to a more resource-efficient and circular economy. It highlights how economic, political, social and market factors influence the development and scaling of business models that reduce resource use, waste and climate impact. The results show that sustainable business models can be strengthened throu
Despite growing emphasis on home-based rehabilitation following stroke, there remains limited understanding of how to effectively tailor services to individual needs. This study employed concept mapping to explore diverse stakeholder perspectives on adapting home-based rehabilitation to better support the recovery process after stroke. Through this mixed-methods participatory approach, we engaged
PurposeIn the transformation to the circular economy, circular logistics nodes are becoming increasingly important to, for example, match supply and demand, coordinate flows, increase logistics efficiency and customer utility, and reduce environmental impact. The purpose of this study is to expand our theoretical understanding of the circular retail transformation and its implications for circular
The transition to a circular economy is transforming retail as we know it. Circular services, such as repair and resale, are becoming an increasingly important part of retail. In this transformation, retail stores are assuming a new role as circular logistics hubs. However, retail stores, traditionally configured for standardized and efficient product flows, must now reconfigure to the new product
Over the past two decades, collaboration has emerged as a keyword and an important methodological and ethical concern in various disciplines, which has nurtured interdisciplinary approaches that often encompass innovative processes of knowledge production. In sonic practice, trends such as participatory art, the workshop turn, and ideas of Do-It-With-Others contributed to the emergence of creative
The purpose of this study is to examine whether there are any key factors for success to look for in launching a new business that affects the subsequent performance of the venture. Further on, the study will examine if there are any differences between believed and actual factors for success for an entrepreneur and the key factors for success given by existing theory. The purpose of looking in to
Abstract Presently we have a record of the highest temperatures ever recorded and the trend is for even higher temperatures. At what rate this trend will continue is chiefly determined by what and how humans choose to consume resources. (IPCC 2001a) A change in behavior is called for, but in order for success we must gain a common understanding that all will benefit if individual action is restrai
