Acrylamide in Potato Crisps - A Three-year Study on Swedish-grown Potatoes

Acrylamide, a probable human carcinogen, has been found at mg/kg levels, in heat-treated carbohydrate-rich foods. Acrylamide is formed via the Maillard reaction as a result of the reaction between the amino acid asparagine and reducing sugars (glucose and fructose). Potatoes contain relatively high levels of both asparagine and reducing sugars and therefore potato products such as crisps, French f

The Forest and the Trees: Industrialization, Demographic Change, and the Ongoing Gender Revolution in Sweden and the United States, 1870-2010

This paper examines the major trends unravelling the long-term gender division of family support and care structure that reached its peak in the middle of the twentieth century, often called the “worker-carer” or the “separate spheres” model. The unraveling of the “separate spheres” began with the increase in the labor force participation of married women and continues with the increase in men’s i

Exploring the effects of ‘Green Energy Economy’ policies for transforming the Swedish building stock

Following the 2008–2009 global financial crisis, ‘green energy economy’ packages have been implemented to stimulate sustainable economic growth in several Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. Clearly focused on the energy sector, these packages typically include energy-efficiency policy measures and aim to encourage the transition towards a low-carbon economy. W

Root Cause Analysis on Inefficiencies in Road Haulage: Case Studies from Sweden, Switzerland and Germany

Road haulage operations and in particular distribution in general, are inefficient. Given the societal importance of road haulage and the low efficiency of the sector, road hauliers need to improve their operations and systematically tackle inefficiencies. However, real causes of these inefficiencies (“root causes”) have not been sufficiently examined in previous studies. This paper aims at expand

Tacit Knowing of Thralls : Style Negotiation and Hybridization among the Unfree in Eleventh- and Twelfth-Century Sweden

In this paper, cultural transmission between Slavs and Scandinavians from ca 900 to 1250 is discussed. Cultural identity and identity negotiation through style are topics often studied in higher social strata of societies. Emblemic style is maintained and displayed in jewellery or other eye-catching parts of the material culture to distinguish oneself in relation to others. However, the constructi

Food traceability in regulated fresh food supply chains with an emphasis on the Swedish fishing industry

Food traceability is gaining increased attention in food companies and governmental authorities. This is because of the increase in legal and consumer requirements on ensuring food safety, quality and preservation of living resources. These requirements especially apply to the management of food traceability in regulated fresh food supply chains. Several studies have shown that management of food
