En mosasaurie (Reptilia, Mosasauridae) av paleocensk ålder?

Mosasaurierna utgör en grupp storvuxna ödlor som dominerade positionen som toppredatorer i haven under sen krittid. Det anses allmänt att dessa marina reptiler, tillsammans med de sista landlevande dinosaurierna, dog ut under det massutdöende som markerar övergången mellan krita och paleogen. Nyligen påträffades en del av ett skalltak tillhörande en mosasaurie i ett löst kalk- och flintblock på enMosasaurs are a group of marine reptiles that are considered to have been the apex predators of the oceans during the Late Cretaceous. It is generally assumed that they, along with the last non-avian dinosaurs, died out during the mass extinction that marks the end of the Cretaceous. Recently, a mosasaur skull roof was discovered in a loose boulder on a beach in the vicinity of the town of Hanstho

“Jag bara mår”: Hur gymnasieungdomar berättar om välmående och vad som är betydelsefullt för hur de mår

Den här kvalitativa studien syftade till att undersöka hur ungdomar beskriver begreppet välmående, hur de beskriver sin självkänsla och sina egna och andras krav har för betydelse för välmående samt hur olika aktiviteter och miljöer spelar roll för välmående, enligt de själva.

In times of change, new business opportunities arise, which Axess Logistics wants to identify. An evident trend is the electrificati

"Effect of hydrocolloids on rheological behaviour and sensory characteristics of plant-based sausage analogue."

Rheology is a science studying the flow, deformation and fracturing of a material. For a general understanding, this science is utilised to predict how a certain material will behave under certain conditions; in other words, the aim is the characterization of a material. (Wahlkrantz, 2020) This characterization is used to describe the elastic behaviour and the flow behaviour of a material. The ela

Opportunity framing - Critical junctures and tough choices in the MedTech industry in Sweden

Background: In today’s competitive market, renewal through innovation is of utmost importance to stay relevant. Creating a start-up is associated with great uncertainty and doing so within the heavily regulated MedTech industry, puts even higher demands on a start-up. Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis is to identify issues and challenges facing MedTech start-ups in the different phases o

Making the Right Choice: the polarized US abortion debate and its transnational implications

The abortion debate in the United States has become increasingly polarized where the legality and morality of abortion is continuously discussed. This has given rise to an abortion movement and countermovement, commonly referred to as the pro- choice movement and pro-life movement. These movements are furthermore working transnationally to promote their agendas and contribute to social and politic

Syfte Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka varför svenska fastighetsföretag väljer att anlita externa värderare. Studien syftar även till att undersöka hur fastighets

Analytics-enabled Green Supply Chain Management

The fashion industry with its complex supply chains deals with increasingly problematic environmental issues. IS and specifically analytics technologies are said to provide fashion companies with crucial insights to improve their environmental impact. However, these promises of this so-called analytics-enabled Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) are not fully materializing in the European fashion

Theoretical and numerical aspects of the pattern maximum likelihood estimator, with a view towards symmetric functionals estimation

Suppose that an infinite population is partitioned into different species. Given a random sample from the population of species, we are interested in estimating the species richness, which is the number of different species inhabiting a given area. The species richness is a symmetric functional of the probability mass function. A suitable model for estimating the probability mass function is via

Perceived Organizational Support, Work Engagement, and Intention to Stay Among Temporary Agency Workers

The use of temporary agency workers (TAWs) has grown over the years, and previous research shows that TAWs do not always have time to create interpersonal relationships, experience unequal work tasks, and perceive a lack of social support within the organization. Hence, this study aimed to investigate to what extent perceived organizational support (POS) from the client organization and the percep

Police violence and the state: The negotiation of the boundaries between legitimated and illegitimate police violence in the context of the gilets jaunes protests

The French gilets jaunes (yellow vest) protest movement, sparked by a planned carbon fuel tax in 2018 is marked by numerous injuries and mutilations of protesters by police, and characterised by a shift towards a more confrontational protest policing strategy. Viewing protest policing and police violence as interlinked with political processes, this thesis explores the question of how the boundari

"What if someone steals it?" - Hands-on evaluation of the software security work of a networked embedded system

As information technology has grown and evolved, so has the need of securing the information. It is important to evaluate both the security of systems and the methods which are used for the evaluation. One method for finding security vulnerabilities in a system is penetration testing. The goal of this thesis is to evaluate some tools and methods for penetration testing. The methods were examined

The complications of measuring green growth: Current pitfalls, further developments, and impact on cross-country longitudinal analyses

There is no consensus on how to define and measure green growth. Consequently, we can neither state if growth is actually green nor econometrically explore important questions such as what determines green growth. This thesis takes a three-step approach to move one step closer to a unifying longitudinal cross-country measure of green growth. It analyzes how green growth has been quantitatively mea

In-house production of Cas9 protein using prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems

Recombinant protein expression of Cas9 was performed at BioInvent International AB using prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems. For the eukaryotic expression, two types of mammalian cells were used namely HEK293 cells and CHO cells. The first expressions were performed using the pIRO-KL vector encoding the kappa leader secretory sequence. The kappa secretory sequence is responsible for tra
