Lignocellulosic materials (e.g., straw and bran) are gaining interest as feedstocks for the manufacture of higher value products, recognizing xylooligosaccharides (XOS) as interesting prebiotic compounds, and putting enzymes converting xylooligosaccharides into focus. In this work, we are investigating a XOS converting enzyme from the probiotic bacterium Levilactobacillus brevis (formerly Lactobac

This doctoral thesis explores the phenomenon of choice awareness through an interdisciplinary framework grounded in cognitive semiotics. Combining phenomenological philosophy with empirical investigations, the thesis examines how awareness of choice manifests across different levels of consciousness and within diverse semiotic systems. Papers 1 to 3 present experimental studies using choice manipu

I Sverige drabbas omkring 300 barn av cancer varje år och majoriteten av dem är bara fyra-fem år gamla när de får sin diagnos. Omkring två tredjedelar av barncancerdiagnoserna utgörs av leukemier, lymfom och hjärntumörer, medan den sista tredjedelen är olika solida tumörformer som njurtumörer och nervvävnadstumörer i buken. Cancersjukvårdens utveckling under de senaste årtiondena har medfört en avPurpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of including PET (Positron Emission Tomography) in the process of pediatric radiation therapy planning. The aim was to study the effect on target volumes and how this in turn affects the resulting treatment plans. This study also aims to compare the estimated risks of various long-term complications and how the use of PET influences the

Preferred acoustic characteristics in a room can vary depending on the purpose of the room. A room adjusted to e.g. teaching may not be suitable for music practice and a room suitable for one type of instrument may not fit another. The judgement of what defines good and bad acoustics is subjective and differs among individuals. Practice rooms at music schools are good examples of rooms were the ac

Förbudet mot åldersdiskriminering implementerades i svensk lagstiftning den 1 januari 2009 genom en sammanhållen Diskrimineringslag (2008:567). Bakgrunden till förbudet återfinns i EU:s direktiv 2000/78/EG om inrättande aven allmän ram för likabehandling. Direktivet fastställer att åldersdiskriminering i arbetslivet måste bekämpas för att likabehandlingsprincipen ska kunna genomföras i medlemsstatThe prohibition against age discrimination was entered into force on 1 January 2009, through the comprehensive Discrimination Act (2008:567). The Swedish protection against discrimination on the grounds of age are based on the Directive 2000/78/EC Employment Framework, whose purpose is to combat age discrimination in the working life and to put the principle of equal treatment into effect in the M

The fight about the syringe - a discourse analysis of the needle exchange debate The debate about needle exchange had been going on for twenty years in Sweden when the Act (2006:323) on the exchange of needles and syringes was introduced in 2006. But still the syringe exchange program is only implemented in Skåne. The purpose of this study was to, with a social constructionist and discourse analy

I många svenska hem finns den bruna papperspåsen som matavfallet ska slängas i, men hur många gånger har du inte blivit trött på att den droppar och luktar illa? Ibland kan det kännas lättare att slänga matavfallet i restavfallet för att slippa dessa problem, men det är viktigt att matavfallet sorteras ut för miljöns skull. Därför utvecklas tekniker som kan göra det lättare för dig att sortera matFood waste has received increased attention due to its negative environmental and economic effects. In Sweden, households account for 71 % of the total amount of generated food waste. A large portion of this food waste is thrown in the residual waste instead of being source-separated, which indicates a need for improved options regarding food waste disposal. This study aimed to assess how in-sink

Det är intressant att studera om de spinn-sammanflätade elektronerna i ett Cooperpar kan delas upp, eftersom detta förutspås kunna användas när man bygger kvantdatorer. En kvantdator kan lösa vissa problem som vanliga, klassiska datorer inte kan och kan dessutom lösa en del problem snabbare. En ökad kunskap om kvantfenomen på ett fundamentalt plan är en förutsättning för vidare kvantteknologisk utCooper pair splitting (CPS) is a process in which the two spin-entangled electrons of a Cooper pair in a superconductor are split into two spatially separated electrons. If the separated electrons are still entangled, CPS can be studied to increase the knowledge of non-locality in quantum systems. This thesis is a first step towards the realization of CPS in InAs nanowires with crystal-phase defin

Kriget i Jemen har nu pågått i sju år och FN-organisationer beskriver den humanitära situationen som den värsta i världen just nu med över 20 miljoner människor i behov av akut humanitär hjälp och för ca 11 miljoner av dessa är behovet akut. Förenade Arabemiraten och Saudiarabien leder en militärkoalition mot Huthirebellerna i ett krig där båda sidorna i konflikten har begått brott mot den interThe war in Yemen has now entered its seventh year and human rights organizations are describing the humanitarian crisis as the largest in the world with over 20 million people in need of humanitarian aid, the need being urgent for 11 million of them. The United Arab Emirates and Saudi-Arabia are leading a military coalition against Houthi-led forces in a war that has seen violations agains the i

Climate change adaptation is taking a more visible role in the planning agendas of countries, cities, and communities. With increasing attention being paid on the different approaches and practicalities of selecting and implementing adaptation strategies and interventions to cushion the risks and impacts of climate change. Globally, there have been calls to strengthen adaptation especially among v

Blockkedje-teknologin har skapat ett nytt verktyg för avtalsingående, så kallade smarta kontrakt. Smarta kontrakt möjliggör decentraliserade, digitala och autonoma avtal som exekveras av sig själva när ett antal parametrar är uppfyllda. En grundläggande fråga är om avtal enligt svensk rätt kan ingås på detta sätt. Av denna anledning ställer uppsatsen frågan om huruvida smarta kontrakt uppfyller föBlockchain technology has created a new tool for contract formation: smart contracts. Smart contracts enable decentralized, digital, and autonomous contracts that self-execute when a set of parameters is met. Can contracts under Swedish law be entered into through smart contracts? This is an important question to answer. For that reason, the paper poses the question of whether smart contracts meet

This thesis aims to reproduce and improve a paper about dynamic road user detection on 2D bird's-eye-view radar point cloud in the context of autonomous driving. We choose RadarScenes, a recent large public dataset, to train and test deep neural networks. We adopt the two best approaches, the image-based object detector with grid mappings approach and the semantic segmentation-based clustering

Emerging technologies have the potential to bring numerous new opportunities and solutions to the existing challenges, including addressing sustainable development goals (SDGs). Particular hopes are given to areas of the life that require our urgent action, these include but are not limited to medicine and food security. Scientists investigate how these technological advances can be applied for th

In the Nordic countries, an increasing part of the population consists of migrants from various backgrounds. Naturally, it is important to investigate what can be done in order for these migrants to integrate successfully. Previous research shows that some of the fundamentals of integration are trust and the sense of collective identity. Therefore, it is important to further investigate the compon

Var och en som har blivit anklagad för ett brott åtnjuter en rätt till tystnad och att betraktas som oskyldig genom det straffprocessuella förfarandet fram till en eventuellt fällande dom. Dessa grundläggande rättigheter tillförsäkras den tilltalade genom artikel 6.1 och 6.2 EKMR. Som en följd av dessa rättigheter ligger bevisbördan i brottmål uteslutande på åklagaren, vilket medför en rätt för deEveryone charged with criminal offense has the right to remain silent and to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in criminal proceedings. The accused is assured these fundamental rights according to article 6.1 and 6.2 ECHR. Due to these rights, the burden of proof must lie on the prosecutor, which means that the accused has the right to remain completely passive during criminal proceedings.
