Resources are a core concept in debates about socio-ecological transformations and post-growth societies, but as a concept they are rarely problematised. Drawing on a resourcification approach in which resources are understood as outcomes of various social processes, this study analyses how resources are conceptualised and understood in degrowth scholarship. Our study shows that resources are seen
Xerostomi, är en kliniskdiagnos för muntorrhet. Muntorrheten kan uppkomma till följd av åldersförändringar, strålnings- och kemikalieexponering eller en inflammation i spottkörtlarna. Extracellulära vesiklar (EVs) är små vesiklar (i nanometerstorlek) vilka normalt används vid cellers kommunikation med varandra. EVs har visats ha positiv effekt i djurförsök vid skada eller sjukdom i tex lunga, hjärXerostomia (dry mouth symptoms) is a group of incurable debilitating conditions of salivary glands caused by aging, radiation/chemical exposure, or aberrant inflammation in the salivary glands. During this PhD thesis, we aimed to evaluate whether cell-derived strategies (e.g., extracellular vesicles, EVs) could be a potential new therapy to ameliorate salivary gland injury and restore function aft
Taffy Twisters (1998) features an extension of the composer's model of articulation.
Understanding, predicting, and controlling the phenotypic consequences of genetic and environmental change is essential to many areas of fundamental and applied biology. In evolutionary biology, the generative process of development is a major source of organismal evolvability that constrains or facilitates adaptive change by shaping the distribution of phenotypic variation that selection can act
Continuous agarose beds (monoliths) were prepared by casting agarose emulsions designed to generate superporous agarose. The gel structures obtained were transected by superpores (diameters could be varied in the range 20–200 μm) through which liquids could be pumped. The pore structure and the basic properties of the continuous gel were investigated by microscopy and size exclusion chromatog
New methods and applications in the separation of biomolecules are reviewed, with an emphasis on the large-scale recovery of proteins. Highlights include the advent of flow-through particles in perfusion chromatography, which allows for very high flow rates, while retaining a high chromatographic efficiency.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the rate of re-ascent requiring re-operation after primary orchidopexy and to investigate eventual differences between the inguinal and scrotal approach as well as other potential predictors for re-ascent. Methods: A retrospective cohort study of children treated for undescended testis (UDT) with orchidopexy between 2018 and 2022 was conducted. The primary
The Earth Hologenome Initiative (EHI) is a global collaboration to generate and analyse hologenomic data from wild animals and associated microorganisms using standardised methodologies underpinned by open and inclusive research principles. Initially focused on vertebrates, it aims to re-examine ecological and evolutionary questions by studying host–microbiota interactions from a systemic perspect
In December 1998 the FRN - The Swedish Council for Planning and Coordination of Research - decided to fund a new injector and storage ring for the MAX-laboratory. The system will consist of a 50-MeV linac, a 600-MeV booster synchrotron, and a 600-MeV storage ring for VUV undulator beamlines. The system will replace an old 100-MeV racetrack microtron and will inject the two existing storage rings:
In this paper, a novel decentralized leader-follower control scheme for multi–agent systems is devised, where each agent communicates only with a subset of neighboring mates. The goal is to track assigned trajectories for the centroid and the formation of the system. The desired trajectories are known only by a subset of agents, named leaders: the other agents, the followers, are required to estim
Symmetry and dominance breaking can be crucial for solving hard combinatorial search and optimisation problems, but the correctness of these techniques sometimes relies on subtle arguments. For this reason, it is desirable to produce efficient, machine-verifiable certificates that solutions have been computed correctly. Building on the cutting planes proof system, we develop a certification method
The use of focused X-ray beams in the micron and sub-micron range has fostered the progress of a wide range of scanning microscopy approaches that exploit the numerous interactions of X-rays with matter. These methods are becoming crucial for an increasing number of research fields, such as energy materials, electronic devices, biology, to cite a few. Nanobeams produced at 4th generation synchrotr
This paper investigates the often ambivalent assessment of the landscapes that have been shaped by Swedish modernity and the welfare policy. This ambivalence could be noticed in different medias, I would argue, for instance in art, photography and novels. In Lefebvrian terms I think you could identify an ongoing negotiation between the modern welfare state’s conceptualization of space and the live
This thesis describes the development of new laser-based techniques for nanometre lithography and microscopy. The potential of a non-intrusive scanned near-field optical microscope (SNOM) has been investigated. The probe consists of an optically trapped microscopic particle which is scanned in proximity to the object to be studied. Compared with conventional SNOM's, this probe would allow high-res
