The web server is an essential component of many systems today. It has the possibility to give access to files with sensitive information and it is the backbone that enable a vast amount of applications. This makes it critical to ensure that files are only accessed and altered by intended users and that web servers are always up and running when expected. One important aspect of doing this is to e
En av EU:s grundläggande principer är den fria rörligheten för personer som även ska gälla för familjemedlemmar. Då varje medlemsstats familjerättsliga lagreglering omfattas av begreppet skydd för den nationella identiteten, befinner sig området utanför EU:s lagstiftningskompetens. Harmonisering av medlemsstaternas nationella lagstiftningar i frågan är därför inte aktuellt då det medför en begränsFree movement of persons is one of the fundamental principles of the EU, which also applies to members of the family. The family law is governed nationally to preserve the national identity; therefore, it is outside of EU’s legislative competence. The harmonisation of the national legislation in question, therefore, is not appropriate as it implies a limitation on a state’s national identity. The
En gärningsperson som begår ett brott under påverkan av en allvarlig psykisk störning och även vid domstillfället lider av en sådan störning, ska i första hand dömas till rättspsykiatrisk vård istället för fängelse. Vid misstanke om att en allvarlig psykisk störning föreligger får gärningspersonen genomgå en rättspsykiatrisk undersökning. Undersökningen resulterar i att de sakkunniga läkarna och pA perpetrator who commits a crime affected of a severe mental disorder, and also by the time for the verdict is affected by such a disorder, shall primarily be sentenced to care instead of prison. If a severe mental disorder is suspected to be present, the perpetrator may undergo a forensic psychiatric examination. The examination results in a report of expertise, where the doctors and psychiatris
Scientific studies indicate that the effects of the ongoing climate crisis negatively affect and sometimes also threaten the built environment, humanity and nature in many ways. Cloudbursts and rising sea levels are two examples of such effects, which result in complex dilemmas and interesting challenges that planners and urban designers face within their field of work. These two effects are notic
Acoustophoresis, i.e., the contactless manipulation of small cells or particles via acoustic waves is a gentle and label-free method that can, amongst others, be used to isolate rare cells such as circulating tumor cells from blood. To isolate enough cells, a large amount of sample needs to be processed in a reasonable amount of time. In a clinical setting, usually around 10 mL of blood can be col
Skadliga marina arter invaderar idag främmande habitat och ekosystem med en extrem hastighet. Dessa arter har haft en mycket stor negativ inverkan på många sårbara ekosystem runt om i världen och barlastvatten har identifierats som en av de största faktorerna bakom den snabba spridningen. Idag är den vanligaste åtgärden för att lösa problemet att byta barlastvatten ute till havs för att göra sig aHarmful aquatic species are today invading foreign habitats at an unprecedented pace. They have had a large negative impact on many fragile ecosystems of the world and ballast water has been identified as one the major culprits behind their fast spread. Today, the most common remedy used to combat the problem is exchanging ballast water in the open ocean to get rid of any organisms with the potent
Popular science summary Ecosystem seasonality in climate models Climate change has a major effect on the timing, intensity and duration of seasonal events in Earth´s ecosystems. These changes may remain undetected when analyzing them on an annual scale, as current climate models usually do. Therefore it is necessary to investigate the impact of ecosystem seasonality on climate processes to impr
The aim of this study was to explain and understand how the child perspective is used in child welfare investigations. The study was based on five interviews with social workers in a municipality in the southern part of Sweden. The main outcome of this study was that the concept child perspective is a multifaceted and complex concept, all the social workers had a different view on the child perspe
Abstract Moraxella catarrhalis is a new pathogenic, gram negative bacterium that is the cause of many respiratory tract infections. MID was found to be a unique protein with Ig binding capacities. Moraxella catarrhalis immunoglobulin D (IgD)-binding protein (MID) is an outer membrane protein that has specific binding affinity to the soluble cell bound human IgD. A short fragment of MID comprised
Care is a fundamental need to all human children, in all cultures and through all of human existence. While child care is universal, its practices are cultural-specific. Inspired by this cultural differentiation, this study explores the universal social phenomenon of human child care in an evolutionary, historical and cultural perspective in a theoretical framework of feminist anthropology and the
The analysis of peptides using mass spectrometry produces signals, where intact and fragmented peptides are observable as specific signal peaks. This report investigates how signal processing and supervised learning, along with specialized peak detection algorithms, can improve the analysis of such peptide signals in a mass spectrometry technique called Data Independent Acquisition. To make this i
Are women absent from Western Music History? This is a question of an apparent and easy answer; however, the reality differs. This issue prevails and only started to be discussed more seriously in recent years, since feminism has been a current on-going discussion through the world. In music, circumstances are seemingly slower to evolve still allowing discriminative actions. Through the analysis o
Protein C inhibitor (PCI) and antithrombin (AT) are serine protease inhibitors (serpins) that are involved in the regulation of coagulation. Like other inhibitory serpins, PCI and AT adopt different structural conformations that are related to their functions. The cleaved, inactive form is a result of cleavage by a protease, and the latent form, which is also inactive, can arise due to a mutation
A systematic assessment of radiotherapy for cancer was conducted by The Swedish Council on Technology Assessment in Health Care (SBU) in 2001. The assessment included a review of future developments in radiotherapy and an estimate of the potential benefits of improved radiotherapy in Sweden. The conclusions reached from this review can be summarized as: Successively better knowledge is available o
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kritiskt sjuka patienter på intensivvårdsavdelningar (IVA) har ofta störningar i blodets levringsförmåga (koagulation). Kliniska tecken som blodpropp (djup ventrombos eller blodpropp i lungorna) och/eller blödning kan vara resultatet av aktivering och konsumtion av koagulationsfaktorer och koagulationshämmare.

Clinical manifestations such as thromboembolism and/or bleeding may result from activation and consumption of coagulation factors and inhibitors. Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a severe condition with an often-poor prognosis. Global haemostatic tests are inexpensive, widely available, and ma
Problem: The environmental impact from food production accounts for a relatively high percentage of the world’s environmental impacts. We need a sustainable development, not least a sustainable production and consumption of food. The study focuses on the concept of sustainable food through a comprehensive approach. Furthermore, the study embraces different impacts food creates on the climate and e
This is the report of a master thesis in Mechanical engineering with industrial design at Lund University Faculty of Engineering, in collaboration with Ikea Components AB (ICOMP) in Älmhult. Furniture dampers are a desired feature by most customers and are practically a standard in kitchen drawers and cabinet fronts. IKEA’s vision is that this feature will spread to involve the entire househo
This thesis is a pilot study for cross-disciplinary analysis with the aim to compare the prerequisites for sustainable harvesting of forest residues/fuels in southern and northern Sweden from both environmental and societal perspectives. It has three main focus areas: (A) Potential to produce forest fuels; (B) Effects on the nutrient budget; and (C) Practical aspects and attitudes within the fores
Our aim is to study if and how LGBTIQ has been made invisible in the public library context, and how this can be countered. In order to do this, we have studied the public library of Hallonbergen, located in Sundbyberg, Sweden. Hallonbergen is the first library in Sweden certificated by RFSL (The Swedish Federation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Rights). The certificate shows that they
The purpose of this research is to achieve a deeper insight of the emulsifying, suspending, and gelling properties of the meat proteins and see the possibility to use them to produce reduced-salt emulsion-type sausages. Sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar proteins were extracted from pork (longissimus dorsi, LD). Firstly, their aggregation behaviors in different salt concentrations – namely, 0.15 M, 0.4
