Waste is a growing environmental problem, especially organic waste that decomposes and generates large emissions of methane. In controlled environments, the methane emissions could instead be used to reduce the use of virgin substances, example fossil fouls. A good waste management is therefore of most importance which sometimes can be difficult to achieve. The waste management is particularly difDin semester bidrar till den globala uppvärmningen Avfall är ett växande globalt miljöproblem och en aspekt som orsakar svårigheter är deponering av matavfall som är den tredje största utsläppskällan av metangas i världen. Metangasen kan istället nyttjas som fordonsgas vilket skulle bidra till en minskad användning av fossila bränslen. Därför är en god avfallshantering av största vikt men det är

Title: Underprissättning på den svenska marknaden - går den att förutspå? Seminar date: 2019-06-04 Course: FEKH89, Bachelor Degree Project in Financial Management, 15 ECTS Authors: Ebba Halvarsson, Erika Langåker och Sigrid Jonsson Advisor: Maria Gårdängen Keywords: Underpricing, Initial public offering, Ex ante, Nasdaq Stockholm, Nasdaq First North, Multiple regression, Asymmetric information Pur

The current study addresses the proposal that students with a non-business bachelor’s degree and a masters in management (MiM) possess a profile that is T-shaped; as a result of, gaining general managerial knowledge in a MiM program (top of the T) and in-depth knowledge as a result of an undergraduate degree from a specific degree field (vertical part of the T). The key concepts that we focus on a

En aktieägare har inget personligt betalningsansvar för aktiebolagets förpliktelser. Bolagets borgenärer har således endast bolagsförmögenheten som säkerhet för sina fordringar på bolaget. På grund av detta är det viktigt att en sådan förmögenhet tillförs bolaget då det bildas och att denna förmögenhet sedan stannar kvar i bolaget under verksamhetens gång, detta för att skydda borgenärerna. Det ärA shareholder has no personal liability for the obligations of the limited company. The creditors of the company have only the company assets as a collateral for their claims against the company. Therefor, it is important that capital is contributed to the company when it is founded and that the capital stays in the company during the activity, and this to protect the creditors. Owing to this, ref

With the foreign political turbulence after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the world came into a change. The post-cold war environment meant that the politics of the bipolarity no longer were the case. This period leads to pressure in redefining Sweden’s foreign and security policy, resulting in an emergence of a different commitment to the countries neutrality and non-alignment. In the light of Kje

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to examine if there are financial purposes for companies to create sustainability reports, by comparing the quality of sustainability reports with profitability for swedish public companies, listed on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm, that are subject to the 6 chapter 10 § Annual Accounts Act by the year of 2018, that earlier haven’t created a sustainability report. Me

The EU Market Abuse Regulation, MAR, entered into force in July 2016 and is a central framework in the field of stock-market law. The regulation provides a uniform definition of the concept of inside information that has a significant role in both the application and understanding of several provisions in the regulation. These aim to create transparency in the market, as well as to combat various

Title: Ready or Not: Exploring Machine Learning Readiness in the Supplier Selection Process Authors: Nazish Rashid and Afra Mukhtar Supervisor Yulia Vakulenko Purpose: The aim of this research paper is to gain a better understanding of machine learning readiness in the supplier selection process. The study aims to analyse the readiness factors that constitute this and barriers that may hinder this

Background: We have previously demonstrated that elevated concentrations of tumour-associated trypsin inhibitor (TATI) in both tumour tissue (t-TATI) and in serum (s-TATI) are associated with a poor prognosis in colorectal cancer patients. It was also found that s-TATI concentrations were lower in patients with rectal cancer compared to patients with colon cancer. In this study, we investigated th

Myeloid cells play a central role in atherosclerosis. We investigated the associations between the plasma levels of growth factors and chemokines that regulate myeloid cell homeostasis and function and the risk of first-time acute coronary events in middle-aged persons. Methods and Results-We measured baseline plasma levels of macrophage colony-stimulating factor monocyte chemotactic protein 1; C-

Recent findings show that human fibroblasts can be directly programmed into functional neurons without passing via a proliferative stem cell intermediate. These findings open up the possibility of generating subtype-specific neurons of human origin for therapeutic use from fetal cell, from patients themselves, or from matched donors. In this study, we present an improved system for direct neural c

Obesity is globally prevalent and highly heritable, but its underlying genetic factors remain largely elusive. To identify genetic loci for obesity susceptibility, we examined associations between body mass index and similar to 2.8 million SNPs in up to 123,865 individuals with targeted follow up of 42 SNPs in up to 125,931 additional individuals. We confirmed 14 known obesity susceptibility loci

Folate's role in breast cancer development is controversial. Not only estrogen receptor (ER) alpha status, but also ERbeta status of tumors may have confounded results from previous epidemiological studies. We aimed to examine associations between plasma folate concentration and postmenopausal breast cancer defined by ER status. This nested case-control study, within the Malmö diet and cancer coho

Because of the continuous increases in lifetime expectancy, the incidence of age-related diseases will, unless counteracted, represent an increasing problem at both the individual and socioeconomic levels. Studies on the processes of blood cell formation have revealed several shortcomings as a consequence of chronological age. They include a reduced ability to mount adaptive immune responses and a

The high false negative rates for initial prostate biopsies refer a large number of the men for repeat biopsies each year. Therefore, biomarkers associated with high risk of the presence of malignancy in histologically benign biopsies could provide a tool to discriminate the patients who need repeat biopsy or intensive follow-up from those who do not. Here we examined the diagnostic applicability

Optogenetic techniques provide powerful tools for bidirectional control of neuronal activity and investigating alterations occurring in excitability disorders, such as epilepsy. In particular, the possibility to specifically activate by light-determined interneuron populations expressing channelrhodopsin-2 provides an unprecedented opportunity of exploring their contribution to physiological and p

Subendothelial LDL-adhesion and its subsequent oxidation are considered as key events in the development of atherosclerotic lesions. During oxidation of LDL, reactive aldehydes such as malondialdehyde (MDA) are formed, which modify apolipoprotein B100. However, the possibility that these reactive aldehydes could leak out of the LDL-particle and modify surrounding extracellular matrix proteins has
