När man skapar ett läkemedel så kan det innehålla både aktiva ämnen och andra hjälpämnen. Hjälpämnena kan bidra till ett läkemedels verkan på flera olika sätt, och en grupp som ofta används är de så kallade cyclodextrinerna. Det finns tre ursprungliga cyclodextriner, alpha beta och gamma, som är ringformade molekyler med olika egenskaper på insidan och utsidan av ringen. På grund av detta så använThe effect of water on α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrins (CD) was investigated using sorption calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic vapor sorption in order to understand the phase behavior and to create phase diagrams. By relating earlier X-ray diffraction patterns of cyclodextrins equilibrated over saturated salt solutions and literature regarding the cyclodextrin hydrates to the s

What is the relationship between structures of power and the spaces we inhabit? I will propose a description of how the relationship between work and housing has changed since the 19th century, and what relationships of power between worker and employer have been created as a result. I will use four case studies to highlight the changing city through the development of traditional capitalism in

This investigation will analyze how the genre historical fiction, more specifically the novel Falling Angels (2001) written by Tracy Chevalier, can be used in the EFL (English as Foreign Language) classroom in upper secondary school in Sweden. It will argue that the different themes approached by the novel are interesting points of departure to be used in the classroom for both language learning a

With population that exceeds 90 million inhabitants, Egypt is one of the large Arab developing countries where the government policies headed towards constructing new urban communities to absorb the vast increase in population. Although the physical planning of the new urban settlements took into consideration the existence of outdoor recreational services and facilities, the quality and adequacy

The South East Coast of Scania is a popular destination for both Swedish and foreign tourists. The long and wide sandy beaches are well visited by swimmers and beachgoers, but the waters have shown to be treacherous at times. In Au- gust 2015, two German tourists drowned after getting caught in a probable rip current in the proximity of Hav ̈ang beach. Six months after the accident, this thesis st

Ett nytt sätt att diagnostisera graviditetsdiabetes Allt fler gravida i Sverige får diagnosen graviditetsdiabetes. Forskarna vet fortfarande inte orsaken till varför man får graviditetsdiabetes. Allt mer forskning pekar på att kronisk inflammation kan ligga bakom sjukdomens uppkomst och att inflammatoriska markörer skulle kunna användas för att säkrare och tidigare ställa diagnosen. GraviditetsDiabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases in the world. Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) presents during pregnancy and significantly increases the risk of a number of adverse consequences for the fetus and mother. It is thought that low-grade chronic inflammation plays an important role in GDM. The inflammatory biomarker soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) has bee

Monte Carlo (MQ) method is a powerful tool to approximate high dimensional integrals. The disadvantage of ordinary MQ is the slow convergence rate by cause of the essential randomness of this method. Computations of this convergence can lead to pure time consuming. Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) method yields considerably better results since this method is a deterministic alternative which uses Low-Disc

In this paper, we addressed whether cellular RNA binding proteins TIAR, hnRNP C1 and HuR induce HPV 16 late gene expression by interacting with elements of the viral genome that regulate splicing and polyadenylation. Pathogenesis and progression to HPV infected lesion is regulated by the viral gene expression program and it has been previously shown that several RNA binding proteins have an effect

Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva varför företag synliggör sitt hållbarhetsarbete för sina kunder och konsumenter. Hållbarhet är ett komplext begrepp utan någon allmän erkänd definition och därför vill vi lyfta fram hur begreppet kan definieras i olika företag och om detta har någon betydelse för vad företag väljer att synliggöra. Genom vår kvalitativa ansats med textbaserade dokument och sThe purpose of this paper is to describe why companies reveal their sustainability performance for their customers and consumers. Sustainability is a complex concept without any public recognized definition, and therefore we want to highlight how the concept can be defined in different companies and if this has any bearing on what companies choose to make visible. Through our qualitative approach

Syfte: Att undersöka och kartlägga skillnader mellan den svenska och danska sidan av Medicon Valley utifrån klassisk klusterteori. Studien riktas till aktörers beslutsfattare för att skapa ett underlag gällande geografiska placeringen av verksamheten inom klustret. Skillnaderna studeras via en komparativ analys av klustret med utgångspunkt från Marshalls traditionella klusterteori. Teoretiska pe

Under 2015 så har detta examensarbete i teknisk design genomförts. Målet har varit att konstruera och bygga en miniatyr av en befintlig produktions enhet för nanofibertillverkning, med förbättringar och omkonstruktion av befintliga delar. Detta har gjorts via Cellevate AB, ett lundabaserat företag inom nanofibertillverkningsbranschen. Som bas för genomförandet av detta har ett urval av metoder anvThis master’s thesis presents the design and construction of a centrifugal electrospinning nano-fiber production unit. The design is realized to as great extent as the limits of the thesis allows. The thesis presents the stages of product design from both Ullrich & Eppinger methodology as well as others, from concept generation to materials selection and finally manufacturing and assembling an

I den här uppsatsen har emotioner använts som ingång till en narrativ och tematiserande intervjuanalys med genusteoretisk utgångspunkt. Fyra kvinnliga yrkesverksamma journalister har medverkat i kvalitativa intervjuer med fokus på strategier kring nätmedierat hat. Genom att använda Sara Ahmed och Patricia Ticineto Cloughs postmodernistiska teorier, förklaras i uppsatsen hur hat på nätet förstås so

Bioenergy as an alternative source for energy production and transportation has gained attention to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels. Short Rotation Coppice (SRC) as dedicated energy crops for heat and energy production have many demonstrated and proved climatic, biodiversity and environmental benefits, but concerns regarding the occurred Land Cover Change (LCC) from agriculture

This paper presents a stabilized incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (ISPH) method to simultaneously simulate surface and seepage flow. The Navier-Stokes type equation, which manipulates the linear and nonlinear resistance effects caused from porous materials, are employed for tracking fluid motions in porous medium. The SPH method is one of the mesh-less particle methods and its Lagran

The aim of this study is to analyse the Swedish national curriculum from a Marxist perspective. I aim to examine how a Marxist reading can aid in our understanding of not only the document itself and the ideological views portrayed in it, but also the implications this has for English teachers in Sweden today. The schooling which takes place in classrooms, as well as outside of them, is political

The aim of this essay is to shed light on a part of the human consciousness that has been given little attention in the history of ideas, the dream. Through a historicizing of dreams, this essay wants to make history out of something natural, a way to see culture where there used to be nature. This is done by looking at three explanations of dreams, from different points in time, in order to exami

Framställningen består av tre delar varav den första delen behandlar struktural bevisning och andra typer av bevis. Struktural bevisning är en typ av bevisning som består av samverkande indirekta omständigheter som ensamma inte kan bevisa ett bevistema men som tillsammans, under vissa förutsättningar, bevisar temat trots att det saknas ett direkt samband mellan bevistema och omständighet. BevisninThe thesis Structural evidence consists of three parts of which the first part discusses structural evidence and other types of evidence. Structural evidence is a type of evidence consisting of synergetic circumstantial evidence, in other words consisting of circumstances that impossibly could prove the crime by itself but which together, conditionally, proofs the crime despite the missing relatio
