The Development of Circular Economy Within the Building Industry. A study focusing on Sweden and Denmark

The building industry is one of the most polluting sectors and consumers of resources. Simultaneously, demand for housing is increasing and resources are becoming scarce. Therefore, circular practices have gained emphasis to possibly leverage this problem. This paper aims to try and explain how the development of circular practices can be explained by the Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT). This pa

The Kenyan Experience of Mobile Money and Financial Inclusion

Since Kenya established mobile money in 2007, the amount of usage and diffusion surged. At the same time, financial inclusion has established itself as a topic of great research and importance for policymakers. Kenya is being viewed as one of the top performers on a national level when it comes to mobile money, as M-Pesa was one of the pioneers of introducing MM. As previous literature mainly focu

(O)laglig skattebefrielse av biogas – En studie i regelkonflikten mellan statstödsrätten och den svenska skattebefrielsen av biogas

Den 29 juni 2020 antog kommissionen två beslut om att inte invända mot en förlängning för perioden 2021–2030 av stödordningar för skattebefrielse av biogas som används som motor- eller uppvärmningsbränsle. De två stödordningarna godkändes för första gången av kommissionen 2003 respektive 2007. De förlängdes sedan upprepade gånger och godkändes av kommissionen som förenligt stöd till och med den 31On 29 June 2020, the Commission adopted two decisions not to raise objections to the prolongation for the period 2021-2030 of state aid schemes for the tax exemption of biogas used as motor or heating fuel. The two schemes were first approved by the Commission in 2003 and 2007 respectively. They were then repeatedly extended and approved by the Commission as compatible aid until 31 December 2020.

The MASS code on autonomous shipping: Evolution and legal implications

Sjöfartsindustrin står för närvarande inför ett paradigmskifte i och med framväxandet av Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS). Dessa fartyg är utformade för att verka autonomt, utan mänsklig närvaro ombord. Den nuvarande rättsliga strukturen inom sjörätten bygger emellertid på antagandet att människor befinner sig ombord på fartygen, vilket har lett till uppkomsten av rättsliga frågor och osäkThe shipping industry is currently at the beginning of a transformative shift with the introduction of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS). With MASS, ships will function without the need for humans onboard. However, the current legal framework within maritime law is built on the premise that humans are in fact onboard ships. Therefore, legal questions and uncertainties have risen alongside t

Mouse hippocampal organotypic tissue cultures exposed to in vitro "ischemia" show selective and delayed CA1 damage that is aggravated by glucose

Oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) in cell cultures is generally studied in a medium, such as artificial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), with an ion composition similar to that of the extracellular fluid of the normal brain (2 to 4 mmol/L K+, 2 to 3 mmol/L Ca2+; pH 7.4). Because the distribution of ions across cell membranes dramatically shifts during ischemia, the authors exposed mouse organotypic h

Vinegar dressing and cold storage of potatoes lowers postprandial glycaemic and insulinaemic responses in healthy subjects

Objective: To investigate the effects of cold storage and vinegar addition on glycaemic and insulinaemic responses to a potato meal in healthy subjects. Subjects and setting: A total of 13 healthy subjects volunteered for the study, and the tests were performed at Applied Nutrition and Food Chemistry, Lund University, Sweden. Experimental design and test meals: The study included four meals; fresh

Neosordarin and hydroxysordarin, two new antifungal agents from Sordaria araneosa

Two novel antifungal agents belonging to the sordarin family have been isolated from fermentations of Sordaria araneosa by bioassay-guided purification and their structures elucidated by NMR techniques. Neosordarin (1) is closely related to the recently discovered hypoxysordarin (2), with only small differences on the aliphatic side chain acylating the hydroxyl in the 3'-position of the sordarose

Neuropeptides and the regulation of islet function.

The pancreatic islets are richly innervated by autonomic nerves. The islet parasympathetic nerves emanate from intrapancreatic ganglia, which are controlled by preganglionic vagal nerves. The islet sympathetic nerves are postganglionic with the nerve cell bodies located in ganglia outside the pancreas. The sensory nerves originate from dorsal root ganglia near the spinal cord. Inside the islets, n

Propane ammoxidation on an Al-Sb-V-W-oxide catalyst. A mechanistic study using the TAP-2 reactor system

The reaction mechanism of propane ammoxidation was studied on an Al-Sb-V-W-oxide catalyst using a TAP-2 reactor system. Analyses of the responses from both high-speed pulse transients with reactants and TPD experiments were performed. Since the ammoxidation process with three reactants proceeds from propane to acrylonitrile over propylene as an intermediate, the experiments comprised oxidation of

The EUROBALL neutron wall - design and performance tests of neutron detectors

The mechanical design of the EUROBALL neutron wall and neutron detectors, and their performance measured with a Cm-246,Cm-248 fission source are described. The array consists of 15 pseudohexaconical detector units subdivided into three, 149 mm high, hermetically separated segments and a smaller central pentagonal unit subdivided into five segments. The detectors are filled with Bicron BC501A liqui

Quantum interference between multi photon absorption pathways in organic solid

We demonstrate spatial interference fringe pattern by simultaneous one- and three-photon absorption of UV and near-IR femitosecond pulses in thin film organic solid at room temperature. We use organic dendrimers that are specially designed to have strong fluorescence and very large three-photon absorption cross-section. High fringe visibility allows the quantum interference to be observed by eye.

Improved preparation technique of cervical carcinoma for flow cytometric DNA analysis with tissue disintegration in hydrochloric acid

An one-step procedure using a nuclear isolation medium containing propidium iodide has been found to be a suitable preparation technique for flow cytometric DNA analysis in breast cancer samples. In the case of cervical squamous carcinoma, a pretreatment with HCl seems to be a methodological improvement. One advantage with the HCl modification is that some "false" near-diploid cell populations are

Pain following Surgery: Management, Outcome, and Prediction

Despite advances in the treatment of postoperative pain, nearly 30% of patients experience moderate to severe pain following major surgery. The present thesis includes four studies intended to evaluate important aspects of postoperative pain. In studies I and II, patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA, n = 1,670), using local anesthetics and morphine, was associated with significantly lower

Free N-acetylneuraminic acid in tissues in Salla disease and the enzymes involved in its metabolism

Salla disease is a lysosomal storage disorder of unknown etiology, characterized biochemically by increased urinary excretion of N-acetylneuraminic acid. This compound has now been shown to occur in abnormally large amounts in liver and cultured skin fibroblasts from these patients. Quantification of N-acetylneuraminic acid was performed using a new gas-chromatography/mass spectrometric single-ion
