Few, if any, corporate governance related issues have been given as much research interest as ownership dispersion and ownership concentration of listed corporations: ‘Why is that some countries, such as the US and UK, has dispersed ownership of corporations listed there, while others, such as France and Germany, has concentrated ownership of corporations listed there?’. This is a question that ha
We analyzed a cohort of 599 cases of urothelial carcinoma for EGFR, ERBB2, and ERBB3 gene expression and genomic alterations. The cohort consisted of a reference set (n = 292) comprising all stages and grades and one set (n = 307) of advanced tumors. All cases were previously classified into urothelial carcinoma molecular subtypes. Genomic amplifications were established by array-CGH or in-situ hy
An arabinose specific xylanase from glycoside hydrolase family 5 (GH5) was used to hydrolyse wheat and rye arabinoxylan, and the product profile showed that it produced arabinose substituted oligosaccharides (AXOS) having 2-10 xylose residues in the main chain but no unsubstituted xylooligosaccharides (XOS). Molecular modelling showed that the active site has an open structure and that the hydroxy

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kaféet är en mötesplats. Alla möten vilar på gränser - på gränser mellan de som möts, som umgänget frambringar. ”Kafékultur, kommunikation och gränser” är en studie av det sociala livet på kaféer, som utvecklar den socialpsykologiska innebörden av gränsen. Den kan ses som ett bidrag till förståelsen av vår tids informella och elementära sociala liv – intressant inte minThe café is a social meeting place. An as yet un-moulded aspect of social life is boundaries – how meetings rest on boundaries between participants that their intercourse brings forth. The aim of this dissertation is to study the café as a sociological and social–psychological phenomenon and at the same time contribute to forming the social–psychological aspect of boundaries. The study also contri
Hur ofta händer det att du inte slänger ditt avfall på rätt plats? Avfallshierarkin uppmuntrar godare resurshållning och genom att följa dess principer kan goda förutsättningar för att förebygga uppkomsten av avfall erhållas. Människan värdesätter miljöarbetet olika och förhoppningarna är att avfallsfrågan ska tas på ännu större allvar. Efterfrågan av biogas och fjärrvärme är större än mängden suIt is very important to understand that the amount of food waste and biomass discarded separately has a direct impact on how much biogas can be produced. E.ON Gas is an energy company with ambitions to live by the current framework for waste management which consist of five-step hierarchy where the waste treatment is ordered in a way that surveys the environment. The waste management hierarchy sta
Rekvisitet ”verksam i betydande omfattning” återfinns i bland annat 57 kap. 4 § inkomstskattelagen och är vagt formulerat. Den här uppsatsen har som syfte att utreda och analysera rekvisitets innebörd. Syftet uppnås genom att undersöka vilka faktorer som har betydelse för när verksamhet i betydande omfattning anses föreligga samt hur dessa faktorer förhåller sig till varandra. Studien har genomföThe legal criterion ”verksam i betydande omfattning” can for instance be found in 57 Ch. 4 § inkomstskattelagen and is vaguely formulated. The purpose of this paper is to examine and analyse the meaning of the criterion. The purpose will be achieved by investigating what factors are significant for when “verksamhet i betydande omfattning” is considered to be met, as well as investigating how these
Inom den genusrättsvetenskapliga framställningen har författare framfört hur 1951 års konvention om flyktingars rättsliga ställning utformats och tolkats utifrån ett manligt perspektiv. Det kan, enligt bland andra Maria Bexelius, förklaras genom att kön påverkar rätten. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka vad begreppet ”kön” innebär och om det kan anses påverka bedömningen av vilka omstäPer literature in the field of gender studies, the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees was drafted and has been interpreted from a male perspective. Pursuant to Maria Bexelius, this is an outcome of how gender affects the law. By studying the meaning of “gender” this essay aims to examine how gender affects the judgement of which circumstances that constitute persecution for reasons
En ny anställningsform som växt fram i digitaliseringens fotspår är arbete som utförs via digitala plattformar. Plattformsarbete är en del av en större pågående strukturell förändring, nämligen flexibiliseringen av arbetsmarknaden. Denna strukturella förändring gör att den nuvarande gränsen mellan arbetstagare och uppdragstagare suddas ut. Begreppet arbetstagare anger gränserna för arbetslagstiftnWork supplied through digital platforms is a new form of employment that has emerged in the course of digitalization. Platform work is part of a bigger ongoing structural shift, namely the flexibilisation of working life. This structural shift blurs out the distinction between an employee and a self-employed worker. The personal scope of Swedish labor law is defined by use of the notion of employe
This research aims to understand the frames used by conspiracy theorists by establishing a new pathway in media framing, or in other words a media framing micro-theory, called conspiratorial framing. The aims are accomplished through a critical analysis of the case of Alex Jones, a conspiracy theorist, and InfoWars, the media channel through which Jones operates. Through frame analysis, accomplis
I dagens samhälle är ett hållbart alternativ till fossiltbränsle högt efterfrågat. Biobränsle är ett alternativ, men om detta alternativ ska vara optimalt, måste det härstamma från ett billigt och lättillgängligt material, som t.ex. cellulosa. Cellulosa finns i bl.a. växtcellväggar och är uppbyggd av sockerenheter (glykos) i en väldigt stabil struktur vilket är en bra egenskap när den sitter i växIn this thesis the enzyme Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) is investigated. The LPMOs have captured the interest of the biofuel industry due to their ability to boost the breakdown of cellulose. Researchers have progressed in mapping out the mechanism behind this oxidative reaction. However, there are still many uncertainties concerning the intermediates involved and the role of certain a
Ett mycket ofta debatterat ämne är vad som ska omfattas inom straffansvaret för våldtäkt och hur den rättsliga prövningen ska gå till. Genom den debatt som förevarit har tankar och idéer kring begreppet våldtäkt som sådant uppkommit. Det övergripande syftet med denna uppsats är därför att närmare undersöka begreppet våldtäkt och dess innebörd över tiden. Uppsatsen avser att besvara om och i vilkenA topic very often debated is what should fall within the crime definition for rape and how the judicial proceedings should be formed. Thoughts and ideas about the term rape have emerged from the debate that has taken place. The overall purpose of this essay is therefore to examine the meaning of rape and how the meaning of rape has developed over time. What this essay intends to answer is if, and
I svensk skatterätt beskattas varje aktiebolag var för sig enligt principen om det enskilda skattesubjektet. Det finns emellertid undantag till denna huvudregel, för att tillmötesgå skattemässig neutralitet för koncerner. Koncernbidragsreglerna i 35 kap. inkomstskattelagen (1999:1229) utgör ett viktigt inslag i koncernbeskattningen, genom att tillåta resultatutjämning mellan koncernbolag utifrån sIn Swedish tax law every company is taxed separately, according to the principle of the separate tax subject. There are, however, several exceptions to this rule, in order to accommodate tax neutrality in respect to taxation of corporate groups. The rules on group contributions in chapter 35 of the Income Tax Act (1999:1229) is a substantial part of the rules on group taxation, allowing tax equali
Sitting in a high chair gives a feeling of security and of having control - you get an overview of the room you are in. But high chairs are often difficult to get up on, you feel clumsy, there is no good support for your feet and they are often quite uncomfortable. The research I have done shows that many people therefore reject the high chair, despite the positive feelings it can also give. Thos
Varje år, varje dag, varje timme, dör någon av cancer. Cancer är den näst dödligaste sjukdomen i världen efter hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar. Dessutom drabbar sjukdomen inte bara de som dör. Många lider fysiskt och psykiskt av sin diagnos och nära och kära utsätts för stor oro för sina närstående. Den bispecifika molekylen rVAR2-aCD3 är ett nytt, lovande läkemedel mot cancer som snart kan börja prövas The use of immunotherapy for treating cancer has received a lot of attention in the recent years. The therapy is based on activating or deactivating the patient’s own immune system to help fight the disease. One way of doing this, is using bispecific molecules that can target both cancer cells and T-cells simultaneously. In 2003, a researcher found that the surface protein VAR2, expressed on mala
On the 26th of August 2019 Karolin Hakim was executed. Newspapers quickly established that she fell victim to the organized crime in Malmö. Later the same year, a fifteen-year-old boy died in a shooting outside a restaurant in the same city. These events contributed to the launching of multiple operations within the Swedish police department. The situation in Malmö led to significant news coverage
