BACKGROUND/AIMS: After acute self-limited hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, serological loss of viral antigens and appearance of anti-HBs is generally believed to signify viral clearance. Latent and occult HBV infection appearing decades after self-limited hepatitis B has not been reported, nor has the evolutionary rate of HBV DNA over the same observation period. METHODS: DNA from serum and leuk
Sweden’s investment level has recently been the subject of keen debate. One fact that is often brought up is the fall in Swedish investment as a proportion of GDP (investment ratio) and that the current level of Swedish investment is below that of other countries. In the long run, low investment can weaken a country’s potential for growth. Although Swedish investment is comparatively low, Sweden i
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kassava är ett stärkelserikt livsmedel, jämförbart med potatis. Det produceras främst i jordens tropiska regionerna och är ett viktigt livsmedel i Afrika söder om Sahara. Kassava har stora fördelar som gröda eftersom avkastningen är hög, den har god motståndskraft mot sjukdomar, den växer även på mager jord och den är motståndskraftig mot torka. Emellertid, kassava har Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an important and cheap source of carbohydrate in tropical regions, particularly in Sub-Sahara Africa. Cassava as a human food is a good source of energy as it has a comparable high energy density of about 610 kJ/100 g fresh root. The crop has growth advantages and production can take place in soil where other crops such as maize, sorghum and sweet potatoes can
The crisis faced by organizations in today´s society is seen more obvious than as an exception. Even though there’s a lot of effort put on research in the area, additional research is requested because handling and communicating about a crisis has become an increasingly common part of the daily work. The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to research in the field by examining the image repair
Sydvatten är ett företag som ägs av 16 kommuner i Skåne och producerar dricksvatten till dessa. En av sydvattens vattentäkter är Vombsjön. Sydväst om Vombsjön ligger Vombverket där beredning från sjövatten till dricksvatten sker. De första stegen av beredningen sker genom att vatten från sjön pumpas in till Vombverkets infiltrationsdammar och därifrån infiltrerar ned genom den omättade zonen till
Om inte statusen på Sveriges byggnadsbestånd förbättras kommer miljömålet ”God bebyggd miljö” inte kunna uppfyllas. Då miljömålet beaktar många aspekter måste ett holistiskt synsätt gälla vid genomförandet av åtgärder i byggnadsbeståndet. För att kunna göra detta måste en dialog föras kring viktiga aspekter på byggnadens samtliga områden mellan inblandade parter. Om en parameter ändras riskerar deCurrently, Sweden faces a major environmental challenge. If the status of its building stock doesn’t improve, the environmental goal “En god bebyggd miljö” will not be reached. Since this goal considers a wide range of aspects it’s essential that the same holistic approach is considered when implementing measures on the building stock. For this to be possible, an extensive dialogue needs to be hel
Traffic engineers around the country often use pre-programmed path plans. However, there is often an uncertainty in how much margin there is in the path plan and if they are trustworthy. The goal of this report is to determine the margin in pre-programmed path plans, using the program AutoTurn, for trucks with a length of 10 meters. This report discusses drive and rest times how both the drive and
Lagrådet har en central roll i lagstiftningsprocessen. Granskningsinstansen utgör en viktig funktion i att bistå regering och riksdag med värdefulla juridisk tekniska kunskaper, så att god lagstiftning av hög kvalitet kan skapas. För att lagstiftningen ska anses som god bör den fullgöra sina övergripande funktioner, vilka kan sammanfattas som tillförsäkrande av en grundläggande trygghet i samhälleThe Legal council is a central part of the legislation process. It constitutes an important function in aiding the government with valuable legal technical knowledge, for good legislation to be created. In order for the legislation to be considered as good, it needs to fulfil its overall functions, which can be summarized as insuring of a basic security in the society through multiple aspects. Cit
In Sweden there are many laws that apply to government archives. Amongst them are the Public Access and Secrecy Act (offentlighets- och sekretesslagen) which regulates which records are bound by secrecy and which are rendered public. The Public Access and Secrecy Act frequently makes implicit references to a protection of integrity, particularly in its treaties on extradition. To investigate what
Öga för öga, tand för tand är en straffrättslig princip som myntades av kung Hammurabi i Babylonien kring år 1700 före Kristus genom Hammurabis lag. Principen om öga för öga, tand för tand innebär att den som orsakat skada ska lida samma skada. Svensk straffrätt har gått från resonemanget att ”ont ska botas med ont” till straff och skadestånd i pengar och därför finns inte principen om öga för ögaChapter 5 article 2 of the Property Formation Act reads that the person who forfeitsland shall be compensated with land primarily. This means that the principal rule isthat land shall be compensated with land, but when this is not deemed appropriated compensation in money is acceptable. Furthermore, the paragraphmeans that the Surveying Authority (LM) may decide against the land owners wish that c
Våren 2020 tvingades svenska lärosäten att ställa om till distansundervisning på mycket kort varsel. Förutsättningarna var goda när det kom till datorvana och infrastruktur men det har funnits indikationer på att dataskyddet fått stå tillbaka. Uppsatsen syftar till att med hjälp av en rättsdogmatisk metod, reda ut och åskådliggöra de olika aktörernas ansvar och GDPRs tillämplighet vid distansunderDue to the Covid-19-Outbrake in the spring of 2020, Swedish HEIs had to convert to distance learning on a very short notice. The conditions for this were good as the general level of computer skills is high and the infrastructure good, though there have been indications that data protection issues have occurred. This thesis aims to investigate and elaborate the roles of the different actors and th
In contemporary Sweden, welfare professionals are mobilising to signal that they lack the preconditions to carry out their work in line with the politically stated mission and professional ethics. Following a seminar in which welfare professionals shared their views on the working conditions, this study explores action strategies for welfare professionals who seek to influence the policy agenda. T
Vid tiden för riksdagen 1809-1810 befann sig riket Sverige i kaos. Landets kung hade blivit avsatt samtidigt som de var i krig med både Ryssland och Frankrike. Samtidigt började nya idéer och tankar om reformer cirkulera i samhället. Bondeståndet reflekterade avundsamt kring adel- och prästeståndens privilegier som gav dessa skattelättnader, medan bönderna själva i stort sett saknade möjligheter tThe situation in Sweden was chaotic when the Swedish parliament assembled in 1809-1810. They were at war with Russia and France and had no king to lead them to neither victory nor peace. At the same time new ideas formed and thoughts of reformation circulated among the people. The peasantry contemplated their unprivileged state compared to the nobility and the clergy. They had to pay more taxes an
The aim of this project is to transfer and implement a monoclonal antibody purification process that is traditionally done on an ÄKTAxpress to another machine called the ÄKTA pure. This is due to the fact that the ÄKTAxpress is being discontinued by the manufacturer and a replace-ment machine is needed for the time being. The project will include developing some new meth-ods that might also highli
This study aimed to increase the understanding of social workers’ experience of outreach activities aimed at adults who do not actively seek community support. The study is based on a qualitative approach through interviews with four social workers. The study shows that outreach work aimed at a target group with complex problems and that the work itself was unpredictable. The target group was desc
The objective of the project was to improve an existing prototype called AstroVR. AstroVR is an educational VR experience with the intent of teaching astronomy to middle grade students. The goal of the masters thesis was specifically to make the product more usable and increase its effectiveness as a teaching tool. The product was improved over multiple iterations. Each iteration contained a desig
The human gut contains a vast number of bacteria. These bacteria allow us to digest the complex glycans that are part of our diet but we ourselves cannot digest. Among these bacteria one of the genera that is a major constituent is Bacteroidetes. One of the distinguishing features of this genus is its polysaccharide utilizing loci (PULs), clusters of genes for degradation of specific glycans and e
