The sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) is a cosmopolitan species with a broad distribution that ranges from the tropics to the poles. Males are known to migrate between nutrient-rich high latitude waters and low latitude breeding grounds. In the North Atlantic, large males are found up to the southern limits of the ice edge. However, their seasonal distribution patterns remain poorly known in th

Nik-related kinase: A New IL-10 Regulator Our body is constantly exposed to microscopic organisms called microbes. Some of these organisms are harmless while others are able to cause infection and damage. Thus, our body has defense mechanisms that include the immune system. Macrophages are cells that belong to the immune system and have key roles in defense against infection, wound healing, and r

We live in a world built on consumerist values and a spatial rationale of capital accumulation. This modern society has led to architecture thriving through super consumption and super production ultimately leading to the generic. Cities and spaces that were usually rich in variation and texture have now become an architectural melting pot. Architecture has become smooth, simplified and reduced to

Ocean acidification is a consequence of the anthropogenic release of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere. When CO2 is dissolved in water it affects the composition of ions and lowers the pH of the water. As the partial CO2 pressure in the atmosphere increases a new balance is reached with the surface waters which causes the pH of the surface oceans to decrease. For small shallow seas this effec

In order to reduce lead time and cost in the product development of vehicles more development will be made virtually. However, the predictability capability of simulation models is questioned and the simulation models need to be correlated versus hardware measurements and modeling techniques improved. As part of the process of vehicle system model capability improvements the main objective of thi

Styrning av partiklar med ljud och intelligenta algoritmer Det här examensarbetet handlar om att styra små partiklar i vätska utan att röra vid dem, med hjälp av ljud. Genom en teknik som kallas multimodal akustofores kombineras flera olika ljudvågor för att noggrant kunna påverka partiklarnas rörelser. Metoden är särskilt intressant inom biomedicin, till exempel vid analys av enskilda celler ellThis thesis explores a range of control algorithms for multimodal acoustophoresis, the process of manipulating particles in a fluid by simultaneously using several acoustic modes. The aim of the algorithms is to precisely guide particle trajectories in acoustofluidic systems, motivated by the demand for non-invasive, scalable manipulation techniques in biomedical applications such as single-cell a

This master’s thesis is a qualitative content analysis of nine municipal library plans (and two county library plans) with a basis in new institutionalism, specifically in regards to legitimacy, homogeneity as well as themes and patterns in the sourcematerial. With a basis in the history of the library plan and the municipal gouvernance, debate in regards to cultural policy, the downsizing of libr

Oats (Avena sativa) are a valued food product due to their nutritional profile and proven health benefits. However, prior to consumption, they require heat processing to prevent off-flavors and undesirable mouthfeel caused by lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of lipids. While the heat treatment inactivates lipases, it raises concerns regarding sustainability and oat quality. The discovery of novel funct

Introduction: Side-stream residue, oat okara, from the oat-milk production contains valuable nutrients but possesses a high risk of microbial spoilage. Valorisation of oat okara is therefore important to make sure that the oat beverage production stays sustainable. In this project, High-pressure processing (HPP), heat treatment and Lactobacillus fermentation have been evaluated for their microbial

Mobile communications have evolved with the commercial deployment of 5G and initial studies of 6G. New solutions and innovative technologies are being incorporated to reach the target requirements. One of the key technologies in mobile networks is massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO). Increasing the number of antennas offers significant benefits in coverage, reliability, and spectral effi

I takt med att hållbarhet blir viktigare söker många företag inom jordbrukssektorn lösningar för att fasa ut fossila drivmedel. Utmaningen blir ännu mer komplex när ersättningen ska vara kompatibel med en existerande fordonsflotta, utan investering i nya fordon. Denna studie jämförde fyra kommersiellt tillgängliga och förnybara drivmedel med referensbränslet diesel. De undersökta drivmedlen är HVAs sustainability becomes more important in today's society, many companies in the agricultural sector are looking for new alternatives to fossil fuels. The challenge becomes even more complex when the replacement must be compatible with an existing vehicle fleet, without requiring new investments in vehicles. This report compares four commercially available and renewable fuels, using convent

Objectives: Timely discovery and adequate patient management are crucial in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) since long-term survival is only achievable in early-stage disease. In our study, we aimed to elucidate the effects of time to surgery on survival and to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on elapsed time until surgery. Methods: In total, 2536 Caucasian NSCLC patients who underwen

Environmental factors, including viral infections, may explain an increasing and fluctuating incidence of childhood type 1 diabetes (T1D). Ljungan virus (LV) isolated from bank voles have been implicated, but it is unclear whether LV contributes to islet autoimmunity, progression to clinical onset, or both, of T1D. The aim was to test whether LV antibodies (LVAb) were related to HLA-DQ and islet a

The presented study deals with the off-line coupling of preparative isotachophoresis (pITP) with on-line combination of capillary zone electrophoresis with electrospray mass spectrometric detection (CZE-ESI-MS) used for the analysis of therapeutic peptides (anserine, carnosine, and buserelin) in complex matrix (urine). Preparative capillary isotachophoresis, operating in a discontinuous fractionat

Digital watermarking is done by adding a piece of data to a signal, which depending on the target media type, may be a picture, audio or video signal. The purpose of this additional signal is to provide a consistent signature linked to the original source which then remains through the act of copying. This allows the author to obstruct the act of theft by adding this signal to his or her creation.

Objective This scoping review examines how different levels and types of partial foot amputation affect gait and explores how these findings may affect the minimal impairment criteria for wheelchair tennis.Methods Four databases (PubMed, Embase, CINAHL and SPORTDiscus) were systematically searched in February 2021 for terms related to partial foot amputation and ambulation. The search was updated

Motivation: The Tundra Trait Team (TTT) database includes field-based measurements of key traits related to plant form and function at multiple sites across the tundra biome. This dataset can be used to address theoretical questions about plant strategy and trade-offs, trait–environment relationships and environmental filtering, and trait variation across spatial scales, to validate satellite data

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), in which inflammatory activity has a crucial role. The manifestation of OSA varies significantly between individuals in clinical cohorts; not all adults with OSA demonstrate the same set of symp-toms; i.e., excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and/or increased levels of inflammatory biomarkers. The further explor
