As the industrial, commercial, and domestic prevalence of Internet of Things networks grows, so does the search for viable solutions to decrease their energy consumption. One common solution is using a low-power proxy that can control the power state of the devices within the network. To evaluate such solutions, either implementations can be made and measured for energy consumption, or energy mode

The study aimed at (a) investigated the ability of potential lactic acid bacteria (LAB) to ferment quinoa milk, and (b) formulating a method for producing fermented quinoa milk. To meet the objectives, Lactobacillus pentosus and Pediococcus pentosaceus two native bacterial strains were tested. Quinoa milk elaboration was optimized at laboratory scale by selecting an appropriate quinoa/water propor

To compete on the global market many companies need to undergo fundamental organizational changes. However, many companies fail to make successful transformations. To identify the factors that contribute to a successful transformation, some researchers have focused on a micro perspective and investigated employees’ characteristics and attitudes (e.g., organizational commitment, readiness for chang

Saccharomyces cerevisiae has emerged as a versatile platform for whole-cell biocatalysis, owing to its intrinsic regeneration of cofactors and amenability to genetic engineering. However, efficient reductive amination of aromatic carbonyls remains challenging due to competing redox pathways and product inhibition by pyruvate. Building on the redox-rewired TMB4133 strain (∆gpd1,2) that accumulates

As Climate Change increases the frequency and severity of wildfires in British Columbia, communities at the Wildland Urban Interface face escalating risks. This thesis explores the challenges and opportunities of community engagement in wildfire management in the city of Kamloops, one of the most fire-prone urban areas in British Columbia. Employing a single-case study design, the research is base

Thioflavin T (ThT) is widely used as a fluorescent probe for amyloid fibrils, yet its fluorescence can also be enhanced in non-fibrillar systems. Here, the photophysical behaviour of ThT was investigated in sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), sucrose laurate (SL), sodium caprate (C10), and lanreotide-containing assemblies across acetate (pH 4.0), phosphate (pH 7.4), and Gly-Gly (pH 8.5) buffers using UV

Perceived stigmatization places a large psychosocial burden on patients with some skin conditions. Little is known about the experience of stigmatization across a wide range of skin diseases. This observational cross-sectional study aimed to quantify perceived stigmatization and identify its predictors among patients with a broad spectrum of skin diseases across 17 European countries. Self-report

Background: Hypertension and smoking are well-known risk factors for aortic dissection (AD), but it is unclear whether other lifestyle factors influence the risk. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between diet quality, physical activity, and risk of AD. Methods: The study included 28,094 participants from the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study, recruited between 1991 and 1996 and f

The Siberian Jay (Perisoreus infaustus) lives in resident, territorial family groups outside the breeding season, but does not breed cooperatively. Thereby it offers an opportunity to study the evolution of territorial group living, without confounding effects of reproductive cooperation. During a long-term study in Finland 1974-2000, we observed Siberian Jay group composition in autumn. Using mic

OBJECTIVE: To investigate markers of endothelial activation in muscle biopsies from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with and without extra-articular manifestations (ExRA). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Nine consecutive ExRA patients were compared with nine RA controls without ExRA, matched for age, sex and duration of RA. Muscle biopsies were obtained from the lateral vastus or anterior tibial muscle.

A crucial chemical link between stars and their orbiting exoplanets is thought to exist. If universal, this connection could affect the formation and evolution of all planets. Therefore, this potential vital link needs testing by characterizing exoplanets around chemically-diverse stars. We present the discovery of two planets orbiting the metal-poor, kinematic thick-disc K-dwarf TOI2345. TOI-2345

Protection of humanitarian aid workers (HAWs) is a challenging task. There are various reports on the topic where much research seems to focus on traditional physical attacks and intentional violence against HAWs (security) rather than the accidental event risks (safety) or discussing it separately. These risks are usually defined by the organization’s security risk management holding the power in

In less than two decades, online dating services have gone from being seen as a marginal and stigmatised practice, to being a regular activity in people's social and romantic lives. This thesis intends to examine Swedish attitudes towards the digital phenomena of online dating and online dating services. The study was conducted through a quantitative method in the form of an online survey, wit
