Det förekommer kommersiella standardavtal och konsumentstandardavtal. Införlivandet av standardvillkor saknar lagstiftning i både hänseenden. Högsta domstolens avgöranden är därför den primära rättskällan för utvecklingen. Konsumentavtal omfattas däremot av tvingande lagstiftning som har till syfte att skydda konsumenter från oskäliga avtalsvillkor. Standardavtalsrätten är central utgångspunkt förThere are commercial standard contracts and consumer standard agreements. The incorporation of standard terms lacks legislation in both respects. The ruling of the Supreme Court is therefore the primary source of law for development. Consumer contracts, on the other hand, are covered by mandatory legislation whose purpose is to protect consumers from unfair contract terms. The standard contract la
Visionen för upprening av antikroppar är att processen ska vara helautomatisk. Ofta eftersträvas en kontinuerlig process eftersom det i de flesta fall innebär lägre kostnader för produktionen och att utrustningen kan vara mindre. Det är nödvändigt att tillföra mer buffertlösning under processens gång, och som en del av visionen ska även detta göras automatiskt. Orbit är en mjukvara som används av The vision of antibody purification is to have the whole process fully automatic. It is often desirable to have a continuous process since that reduces the costs for production and the size of the used equipment. It is necessary to supply buffer solutions to the purification steps, and as part of the vision; this should be done automatically. An in-house piece of software called Orbit is used for

Under början av nittonhundratalet började det bli känt att det fanns mer till världen än man tidigare trott. Det fanns en helt ny arena med helt nya spelregler: Kvantvärlden. Albert Einstein lade grunderna för den fotoelektriska effekten, varvid ljus används för att jonisera atomer genom en process där en atom absorberar ljus, och därmed energi, för att sedan avge en elektron, en så kallad fotoeleIn this work, we employ a semi-classical approach to light matter interaction to describe and char- acterize spin configurations resulting from quantum correlations between electrons created by a photoemission event and by the following Auger decay. The system studied consists of three atomic levels and two continua. Initially, an external classical light field, in the form of a narrow Gaussian pa
