We demonstrate a single DNA molecule optical mapping assay able to resolve a specific Escherichia coli strain from other strains. The assay is based on competitive binding of the fluorescent dye YOYO-1 and the AT-specific antibiotic netropsin. The optical map is visualized by stretching the DNA molecules in nanofluidic channels. We optimize the experimental conditions to obtain reproducible barcod
In this study, we investigate for the first time the efficiency of an environmentally sustainable extraction technique (pressurized liquid extraction, PIE) in conjunction with a fast separation technique (ultra-high performance liquid chromatography, UHPLC) coupled to a selective mass spectrometry (MS) detector (quadrupole time-of-flight, qTOF) to extract, separate and quantify fifteen intact-gluc
Groups of spiritual practitioners (P) (n = 38), long-term residents in a center offering spiritual courses (R) (n = 8), and matched control groups from a general, population sample for P (CP) (n = 45) and for R (CR) (n = 14) were compared. P had high levels of education and tended to be in a committed relationship and belong to the Danish National Church, whereas R had a lower level of education a
The European common fisheries policy (CFP) advocates measures to sustain small-scale fisheries; hence, in the European Commission's proposal for a reformed CFP, these are exempted from a mandatory system with tradable fishing concessions. This opens up for management actions designed for small-scale fisheries, but also implies new management issues. This article provides insights into the topic ba
The Bicoid (Bcd) protein gradient in Drosophila serves as a paradigm for gradient formation in textbooks. To explain the generation of the gradient, the ARTS model, which is based on the observation of a bcd mRNA gradient, proposes that the bcd mRNA, localized at the anterior pole at fertilization, migrates along microtubules (MTs) at the cortex to the posterior to form a bcd mRNA gradient which i
We study connections between topological dynamical systems and associated algebras of crossed product type. We derive equivalences between structural properties of a crossed product and dynamical properties of the associated system and furthermore derive qualitative results concerning the crossed product that are true regardless of the corresponding dynamical system. The systems principally invest
How would a low-carbon energy transformation affect energy security? This paper proposes a frame- work to evaluate energy security under long-term energy scenarios generated by integrated assessment models. Energy security is defined as low vulnerability of vital energy systems, delineated along geographic and sectoral boundaries. The proposed framework considers vulnerability as a combination of
What effect does a collision between two clusters have on their dissolving time? In order to answer this question, a new type of N-body simulation using a double integration of a cluster was built. Instead of introducing a perturbation representing the gravitational force of the Milky Way into a local simulation of the cluster, the cluster orbit was integrated in the potential of the Milky Way,
The aim for this thesis is to find out what aspects are important to create a good sound environment at home. In order to do this three different sound environments has been studied in the literature review: hospitals, schools/pre-schools and offices. Important acoustical parameters was picked out and a method for evaluating the sound environment at home was carried out. The main subject was to fi
How do professional counselors understand and rationalize their responsibility to report child maltreatment when worried about a child? The aim of this study was to analyze how school counselors and health care counselors talk about their obligation to report child maltreatment to the social services, and how their reasoning affects the protection of children in Sweden. The method chosen was quali
Genom att uppropet mot sexuella trakasserier tog fart vändes även strålkastarljuset till sexuella trakasserier på arbetsplatsen. Uppsatsen utreder arbetsgivarens ansvar och skyldigheter i sin roll som arbetsgivare för sexuella trakasserier. Arbetet fokuserar på diskrimineringslagens bestämmelser samt vilka EU rättsliga bestämmelser som har genomförts i svensk lag. Arbetsgivarens ansvar är ganska oAs the call for sexual harassment gained momentum, the spotlight was also turned to sexual harassment in the workplace. The thesis investigates the employer's responsibilities and obligations in its role as an employer. The work focuses on the provisions of the Discrimination Act and which EU legal provisions have been implemented in Swedish law. The employer's responsibility is quite larg
Syftet med den här studien var att undersöka sambandet mellan kohesion (sammanhållning) och effektivitet i arbetsgrupper, vilket mättes i enkätundersökning med en svensk översättning av Group Environment Questionnaire - Work Team Version och Team Effectiveness Scale. Studien ville undersöka i vilken grad upplevd kohesion korrelerar med upplevd effektivitet inom arbetsgrupper på en polisstation medThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between cohesion and efficiency in work teams, as measured by a Swedish translation of the Group Environment Questionnaire - Work Team Version and Team Effectiveness Scale. The study examined in which extent perceived cohesion correlates with perceived efficiency within workgroups at a police station with policemen working on the field.
Due to its history, Germany holds a vast number of industrial sites that have long been abandoned and thus, have fallen into oblivion. Albeit their indisputable qualities, they also bear obstacles which entails that greenfield development projects are still dominating Germany’s urban planning processes and the construction industries, thus causing a severe land consumption each day. This project d
Hedersrelaterat våld är ett ämne som engagerar. Förutom att ämnet debatteras flitigt i massmedia höjs regelbundet röster om att våldet borde särkriminaliseras, t.ex. genom ett införande av hedersmotiv som särskild straffskärpande grund. Men inom rättsvetenskapen är hedersvåld fortfarande ett förhållandevis outforskat område. Hur ser rättsystemet, särskilt domstolar, egentligen på och hur resonerarHonor-related violence is a captivating topic. It has been a frequent subject of debate in Swedish mass media and voices have regularly been raised demanding that specific criminal laws against such crimes should be introduced, e.g. making honor motives an aggravating circumstance when deciding penalty. However, in legal doctrine, honor-related violence is still a relatively unexplored subject.
This evaluation field study aims to study the LM International/Läkarmissionens and Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) Kenya’s project against Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C) in southwestern Kenya, a crime against human rights and a severe problem in parts of Kenya. The laws against FGM/C have had limited effect in the region, so the groundwork is more important than ever. The
I Sverige är anonyma vittnesmål inte tillåtna. Det har debatterats om möjligheten att tillåta anonyma vittnen i svensk rätt. Det framhålls att den grova brottsligheten ökar och att vittnen inte vågar vittna på grund av rädsla. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om anonyma vittnesmål bör tillåtas i Sverige. Flera utredningar har gjorts där det kommits fram till att anonyma vittnesmål strider mAnonymous testimonies are not allowed in Sweden. It has been debated about the opportunity to allow anonymous witnesses in Swedish law. The focus in the debates is that the serious crime is growing and that the witnesses are afraid to testify. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate if anonymous testimonies should be allowed in Sweden. Several investigations have been done where they have sta
