The aim of this study was to examine experienced substance abuse treatment among those who at some point have received health care because of addiction in Sweden. The method used was a quantitative survey that was sent out to different websites directed to people who currently have or have had addiction issues for which they got treatment, with the purpose of comparing experienced substance abuse

Existing pick and place robots are either heavy or have a limited workspace for vertical operations. Since there is no robot today that are both light and have a good vertical workspace, this leads to a gap in the market. With the use of the laws of physics Cognibotics is trying to fill these gaps in the market, by developing new fast and lightweight robots. These new robots are designed to have a

The growing number of users and the changes in customer behaviour over the last few years caused new hype in the e-commerce industry. This imposed pressure resulted in some technical disruptions in those systems. Software development teams responsible for creating and maintaining these systems, in their turn, were affected by the sudden shift to remote work. The current study aims to investigate s

This thesis challenges the treatment of trust income received in a country with no trusts in its legal system in light of freedom of establishment and free movement of capital. Can provisions of a Member State that has decided not to have trusts in its legal system make the transfer of shares or even the establishment of a trust elsewhere less favourable?

On the other hand, there are those who are skeptical toward Sweden joining the Euro, because it might risk the control over the currency to dropped and for the competitiveness to be lost. The international trade is large and important facto to increase the GNP growth. That is why this paper tend to examine to what

The threat of resistant bacteria is an increasing issue that has emphasized the need for therapeutic strategies. One possible drug candidate is the carbohydrate sialic acid, which adorns almost every cell surface on mammalian cells. These so-called glycans (defined as carbohydrate-based polysaccharides) are involved in key cell functions, including cell-to-cell recognition in eukaryotes. Because o

The evolution of the digital landscape through emerging technologies presents brand managers with a new context for managing their brand: the metaverse. This thesis investigates how the role of the brand manager and the related brand management practices evolve in response to this. The method used followed a qualitative approach, conducting semi-structured interviews with professionals working in

Studiens syfte har varit att framställa en sociologisk analys av vilken inverkan krigsutbrottet i Ukraina har haft på svenska kommuners arbetssätt. För att på ett nyanserat och välgrundat sätt svara upp till studiens frågeställningar och syfte har en kvalitativ metod i form av semistrukturerade intervjuer med kommunernas säkerhetsansvariga utförts och kommunala dokument har analyserats. Urvalet av

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

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
