The 2020 Covid-19 pandemic was accompanied by wide-ranging mis- and disinformation appearing largely on online platforms like social networking sites. The World Health Organization and the European Union urged citizens to be critical of sources and evaluate the information they were receiving about the pandemic. Since the promotion of information literacy relies upon the concept of source evaluati
Denna uppsats baseras på en jämförande undersökning av två av fyra befintliga svenska översättningar av den amerikanske författaren F. Scott Fitzgeralds roman The Great Gatsby från 1925. Med en kvalitativ metod som bygger på näranalys av textutdrag ur romanen och de båda översättningarna jämförs de med varandra för att utröna vilken som kan anses mera källtexttrogen. De aspekter som särskilt stude
The enzyme dermatan sulfate epimerase 1 is one of the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of the glycosaminoglycan dermatan sulfate. The expression of dermatan sulfate has been linked to several severe pathological conditions including breast, lung, and oesophagus cancer. The change in expression alters i.e., the tumorigenesis, cell viability, and adhesion. By altering the activity of dermatan su
As the reforms to the Kafala system in Qatar in recent years are witnessing substantial achievements, the international communities expressed their appreciations to Qatar on what was happening in favor of the labor rights. However, the public discourse towards the reforms as well as the migrant workers in recent years remains understudied. This paper aims at studying this point by investigating th
Ever since the murder of the Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme in February 1986, many different theories about who the killer could be have been created and discussed. One of the more intensely discussed theories is the “police-conspiracy theory”. In this thesis I investigate how this theory became a kind of public knowledge in the years after the assassination. Using a theoretical framework base
As online shopping increases every year, so does the package material that takes from natural resources and ends up as garbage. To be able to save our planet we have to switch to a circular economy, where waste and pollution is designed away. The sector of clothing, shoes and accessories is the most bought online within the EU. These packages are commonly made of soft plastic or biodegradabl
"Hunnao"(婚闹) emerged in China during the pre-Qin period (221 B.C.) and has evolved ever since as a distinctive Chinese wedding tradition. It is a form of wedding entertainment retained by Chinese folk since ancient times. Patriarchy has happened over many centuries, which has a great influence on the "hunnao". The main goal of this paper is a theory of Chinese patriarchy to ana
Aphanomyces rot root is an important disease in sugar beet, leading to significant harvest losses and a decrease in sugar content in affected fields. The disease is caused by the oomycete Aphanomyces cochlioides and affects the roots as either an early or late infection. To control the disease, it is crucial to incorporate resistance into cultivars. However, the genetic background to resistance is
I denna studie studeras svenska konsumenters användande av omnikanaler, samt vad som uppmuntrar situationella respektive avsiktliga beteenden i form av showrooming och webrooming. Konsumenters beteenden vid köp av olika produktkategorier är även ett centralt forskningsområde för uppsatsen. Det empiriska materialet för studien har samlats in genom tolv kvalitativa djupintervjuer med både män och kv
Pediatric leukemias are one of the most common types of cancer diagnosed in children. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common form of leukemia in children, and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the second most reoccurring type of leukemia in pediatric diagnosis. It has previously been found that structural variations are an important underlying mechanism leading to these diseases. Fluo
MicroProteins are small, separately expressed parts of a larger protein and able to interfere with the full-length protein’s function. To enable modulation of hormone perception, microProteins were designed from the ethylene, cytokinin and gibberellin receptors. The protein isoforms designed to function as microProteins were overexpressed in Arabidopsis. Overexpression of a shortened gibberellin r
Val som görs tidigt i en designprocess kan vara avgörande. De dikterar många av de begränsningar och friheter som konstruktörer har i senare skeden av processen. Informerade beslut är därmed viktiga i detta skede. Med den ökande beräkningskraften hos moderna datorer använder fler och fler konstruktörer CFD-programvara för att utforma och utvärdera prestanda hos turbopumpar. Simuleringarna gör det Choices made in the early stages of a design process are crucial. They dictate many of the limitations and freedoms the designer has in later stages of the design. Informed decisions are therefore crucial at this stage. With the increasing computational power of modern computers, more and more designers utilise CFD software to design and evaluate performance of turbopumps. The simulations allow th
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur det fysiska och det digitala flödet för sterilhantering av instrument kombineras på ett sjukhus. Detta för att kunna utläsa hur dessa två flöden stödjer varandra mot riskförebyggande för att tillgodose behoven för ett framgångsrikt tjänstemöte.
Under de senaste åren och i samband med pandemin har det skett en ökad motreaktion till urbaniseringen. Teknologins framsteg har gjort att fler kan arbeta på distans och man prioriterar sitt boende och livskvalité på ett nytt sätt. Allt fler väljer att flytta utanför städerna för att bo billigare, större och nära naturen. Ruralismen ställer högre krav på infrastrukturer och kollektivtrafiken och
Within a not-too-distant future, Sweden is believed to face a surge in demand for electricity. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the economic aspects of small modular reactors (SMR), as one possible solution for Sweden’s coming energy needs. SMR are a new form of nuclear reactors, modularly constructed in a factory and small enough to be shipped to the site where they are to be installed. H
The rapid evolution of modern chipsets and sensors has led to most modern smartphones are capable of providing an Augmented Reality (AR ) experience. Recent advancements in web development have made it possible to leverage the mobile device’s AR capabilities and deliver immersive content directly in the browser. The web-based immersive content may constitute a future platform for instructions and
