Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a non-selective cation channel that plays a significant role in pain, itch, and inflammatory conditions, and its activation is mediated by various electrophilic compounds and small molecules like menthol and camphor. Understanding the mechanism of activation and deactivation of TRPA1 is crucial for developing treatments for these conditions. This

Lifestyle modifications could be crucial in preventing and managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including diet and postprandial glycaemic control. Previous studies on the effects of polar lipids (PLs) on postprandial metabolic responses at Lund University have shown conflicting results. To reconcile these findings and contribute to the existing literature, th

This research explores how community-based entrepreneurs can contribute to the reorganization of natural resource management and find solutions to environmental problems within the current capitalist economy. Recent scholars on post-capitalism, believe that the economy can be organized by different institutions than the market and investigate the role of individuals as catalyst of environmenta

Detta examensarbete handlar om PLC-programmering av en pelletspanna till ett nytt fjärrvärmeverk som byggs i Landskronas stadsdel Örja i samarbete med Deterministic Control AB, för en slutkund Landskrona Energi AB. Material som P&I-schema, funktionsbeskrivning, I/O-lista levererades av ett annat företag, AKJ. All programmering görs i ett ABB 800xA-system. De viktiga begrepp som examensarbetet This thesis concerns the PLC-programming of a pellet boiler for a new district heating plant being built in the Örja district of Landskrona in collaboration with Deterministic Control AB, for a final customer, Landskrona Energi AB. Material such as PI diagrams, functional descriptions, and I/O-lists were provided by another company, AKJ. All programming is carried out in an ABB 800xA system. The i

Diet-related diseases kill millions of people every year and pose significant costs to the economy and society. In Sweden, this is an increasingly prevalent phenomenon. However, a healthy diet can prevent this. This thesis investigates what costs and benefits there are to adopting healthy eating habits and how these effects impact the Swedish economy. This thesis finds that the costs and benefits

In protein formulation, addition of surfactants is commonly executed to enhance product stability and shelf-life. The reason is that surfactants can protect proteins against surface-induced aggregation. However, the interaction between surfactant and protein depends on the type of surfactant used. Anionic surfactants can unfold proteins and form complexes in equilibrium manner. The complex structu

The project aimed to analyse by liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-MS/HRMS) the extracellular proteins synthesized by Rhodothermus marinus strains DSM 4252T and DSM 16675 growing in medium containing different carbon sources. That is critical to find valuable enzymes for industrial uses in biomass conversion into value-added chemicals. Cells were grown in medium

Fastigheter anses på grund av dess unika egenskaper att vara en av de bästa skattebaserna, och i takt med globaliseringens acceleration blir betydelsen av skatteintäkter från denna skattebas allt större. I Sverige har skatteuttaget från denna skattebas trendvis minskat med åren, något som sticker ut på ett internationell plan. Syftet med rapporten är att jämföra olika fastighetsbeskattningsmodellReal estate is regarded as one of the best tax bases due to its unique characteristics. As globalization accelerates, the importance of this tax base is increasing. In Sweden, the tax revenue from real estate has trended downward over the years, something that stands out internationally. The purpose of this report is to compare different property taxation models for detached single-unit propertie

When a stroke patient visits a physiotherapist for rehabilitation, various tests are often conducted. The results from these tests need to be stored somewhere, and currently, there is no efficient method for doing so. The best available option is an Excel spreadsheet that calculates the results, followed by the physiotherapist having to save the data in another way. This process is time-consuming,

Thesis Purpose: This study examines how parasocial relationships between music artists and fans foster a plethora of different consumer attitudinal outcomes, with the purpose to provide clarity through the shaping of distinct consumer archetypes, while offering in this way practical insights for marketers and industry professionals. The context of K-pop is used to delve deeper into the understandi

Since 2019, Icelanders can self-determine their legal gender. A third “neutral” option was also added. However, formulations in the Act allow only one self-determined change (Act on Gender Autonomy, 2019). Research on self-determination of legal gender has shown how acts can have limited effects since legal change is insufficient in addressing injustice. The separation of medical and legal concern

Att mark tas i anspråk för allmänna ändamål såsom kraftledningar är nödvändigt för att samhället ska fungera. Företags- och miljöskada, två skador som uppkommer för fastighetsägare i samband med markåtkomst. För att bibehålla ett äganderättsligt skydd innebär båda skadorna att fastighetsägaren har rätt till kompensation för intrånget om vissa kriterier uppfylls. Företagsskada regleras i ExpropriatEnvironmental- and enterprise damage are two freehold compensations related to land acquisition. They are regulated in The Environmental Code and Expropriation Act. Enterprise damage implicates damages created by the activity that occurs on the expropriated property, such as noise, view disturbance, psychic immissions etc. Environmental damage implicates the same damage however in question of prop

In the following thesis, the development of the biofuels sector in the United States will be analysed using environmental economics. Around year 2005, there was a significant increase in the production of liquid biofuels. Hence, the thesis aims to explore the reasons behind the increase. Acts of government have been analysed while enlisting the help of summaries and overviews accessed through v

The securitization theory is used along with CDA and topos tool to analyse the politicians’ speeches and statements, the joint reports of the two countries, besides Orbán’s national consultations. Where a clear security language in all of these sources that li

The agri-food system has driven economic development and supported the growing population, but it has also significantly contributed to greenhouse gas emissions. Moreover, the system is vulnerable and faces challenges that hinder innovation and sustainability. Transitioning from a linear to a circular economy model in the food system can effectively restore biodiversity, combat climate change, and

En förhöjd temperatur på jorden på grund av solens utveckling kan leda till förödande konsekvenser. Allteftersom solen åldras ökar den nämligen i ljusstyrka – vilket gör att vår planet nås av en större mängd ljus. Därmed värms planeten upp och detta kan på sikt leda till en förstärkt växthuseffekt och en skenande temperatur. Även om temperaturändringen inte är märkbar i nuläget kommer den om ungefThe stellar luminosity increases as a star evolves which inevitably yields a higher temperature on planets in orbit around the star. It is reasonable to assume that intelligent civilizations would tackle this issue through installing artificial structures that can alter the radiation received by the planet. Such structures, if they exist, are potentially detectable with current or near-future tech
