Vid vaccinering aktiveras kroppens immunförsvar mot den sjukdom som man vaccineras mot. Kroppen bildar antikroppar mot antigenet som finns i vaccinet och då skapas ett skydd mot sjukdomen. Antikropparna som bildas binder till olika ställen på antigenet, men varje enskild antikropp binder specifikt till ett ställe. De bildade antikropparna är polyklonala vilket innebär att de kommer från olika B-ceThe aim of this study was to test how the affinity of monoclonal antibodies, raised against a vaccine candidate, influences the results obtained in a quantitative antigen-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The vaccine candidate is a fusion protein consisting of the N-terminal parts of two bacterial cell surface proteins, Rib and Alpha-C. To determine binding protein (Rib or Alpha

The scale at which greenhouse gases are produced by human activities is a global problem, and as such it is being targeted broadly both by political means as well as technologically. One of the major contributors to the emission of green house gases globally, as well as in Sweden, is the transportation sector. This poses an opportunity for technologies that aim to reduce impact of the transport se

En analyserade och komparativ studie av den svenska rollspelsdebatten och dess relation till moralpaniksteorin. Materialet består av artiklar och debattinlägg från dagstidningar och tidskrifter.

Mobile by default is a project about the identity of mobile connectivity with a focus on future usage of mobile technology in the workplace. The starting Point was to research how mobile communication and mobile devices are being used and how the users are affected by it, and through a case from the consultancy firm Ramböll this is applied to their new activity based office space in Gothenburg, Sw

Detta examensarbete är en förstudie till vidareutveckling av ett befintligt, webbaserat verktyg. Verktyget används till att ta fram kommunikationsstödjande material, främst till vårdsituationer, i form av bildstöd. Användare av verktyget är till stor del personal i olika vårdrelaterade verksamheter och föräldrar till barn med eller utan funktionsnedsättning.

För att de globala klimatmålen ska uppnås, måste antalet icke hållbara resor minska. Ett sätt att lyckas med detta är att utveckla kollektivtrafiksystem i städer så att fler väljer att åka kollektivt istället för att använda bilen. Denna uppsats syfte är att undersöka hur man kan planera kollektiv- trafik i en stad för att största möjliga andel av stadens invånare ska använda sig av den. Under- sö

Denna studie belyser vilka faktorer som motiverar hotellreceptionister i en svensk kontext, vars arbete präglas av emotionellt arbete, relativt låga löner samt obekväma arbetstider. Syftet med studien var att undersöka ifall hotellreceptionisters motivation är kopplad till monetära eller icke-monetära incitament och om det finns en korrelation mellan de olika faktorerna. Utgångspunkten och frågest

Syftet med min studie var att undersöka på vilka sätt dramapedagogik kan påverka elevers sociala och emotionella utveckling inom gruppundervisning. Jag valde att inrikta mig på tre områden inom social och emotionell utveckling: socialt samspel, förståelse och självkänsla. Studien utreder drama som ett frivilligt ämne. De pedagogerna jag intervjuat beskrev att dramapedagogik syftar till att utforsk

Infections and autoimmune diseases are today affecting at least 1.7 billion of the world population [1]. There are today several methods used to try and diagnose infections and autoimmune diseases, but these cannot differentiate between infection due to different pathogens or autoimmune disease. A method based on a density gradient inside a capillary would aid in the differentiation between the di

Topicalisation (TOP) and clitic left-dislocation (CLLD) are syntactic strategies in which some constituent occurs sentence-initially rather than in canonical position further to the right. European Portuguese is exceptional among Romance languages, as both TOP and CLLD can be used to place verbal arguments in clause-initial position. The two forms are superficially similar, but most modern syntact

Hemicelluloses account for 25-30% of total wood dry weight. Mannan-based polysaccharides are the major component of softwood hemicelluloses. They are characterized by their β-1,4-glycosidic linked backbone composed of mannose or a combination of mannose and glucose residues. The backbone can be substituted by α-1,6-linked galactose residues. β-mannanases cleave the internal β-1,4-glycosidic bonds

The changing of the climate is today a problem. There are many reasons why the climate is changing but one of the biggest is the use of cars for personal transport. To reduce the emissions of climate gases many cities in Sweden are today planning for sustainable transports instead of the car. Examples of sustainable transportation is public transport and biking. Although the bike is a good vehicle

VAD HAR DEN SOCIALA HÅLLBARHETEN MED KLIMATUTMANINGARNA ATT GÖRA? Frågan låter mer disparat än vad den egentligen är. Forskning och praktik visar att det finns en direkt kausalitet mellan de två. Att ett fokus på social hållbarhet kan förbättra relationen till hur vi uppfattar och hanterar klimatutmaningarna men också ge direkta återkopplingar. Det går inte att utesluta att med en utökad kunskapsToday, the concept of sustainability is central in several housing projects, not to mention the many other socio-technological projects for which the concept is a directive. In this study I problematize the relation of the paradigm of sustainable development to one of its main “pillars”, the social dimension, and how this can relate to the greatest challenge of our generation – climate change. As

Det svenska folkbiblioteket som institution är under förändring. Utlånen minskar då material nu är tillgängligt för användare hemifrån via internet. Däremot används biblioteksbyggnaderna fortfarande till en rad olika ändamål. Det är en plats på för studier för många olika målgrupper och många bibliotek har inrättat lärcentrum för vuxna. Barn och ungdom är en viktig grupp eftersom bibliotek är en The Swedish public library as institution is under change. Library loans is steadily decreasing because content is now accessible for users at home via the internet. However, the library building is still being visited for a wide variety of purposes. It is a place for study for all age-groups and many libraries provide learning spaces for adults. Children and youth are important groups because th

This thesis is about the political party the Sweden democrats and its ideological residence, trying to answer the question whether it’s correct to define it as fascist or not. Very little previous research has made a deeper analysis into this which makes this study both more interesting and more important. There is a lack of consensus about the definition of fascism among scholars, and especially

The number of machine-type communications (MTC) devices is predicted to increase enormously in the near future, and this increase is expected to be accommodated by 5G. However, the Authentication and Key Agreement (AKA) mechanism used in the fourth generation of mobile telecommunications systems, EPS, may prove too inefficient for handling a large number of MTC devices simultaneously trying to con

Machine control with GPS allows machinists to operate using a digital model as reference instead of the traditionally used methods. This leads to other duties and a different flow at the worksite. The purpose of this study is to examine how various professions have changed with the development of machine controlled equipment and also how the work methods can be optimized. A series of interviews ha

Flexilast is a company located in Eslöv that provides trucking and construction services. To order or get help with goods and services from the company today, you would have to call them. The employees at the company spend alot of their time on the phone to help customers with the company's various products and services. To solve these problems Flexilast contacted Daniel Hurtig and Tom Hansson

This study makes a numeric and visual comparison of two different multibeam echo sounding (MBES) surveys performed at the exact same location, in an effort to establish how reliable and comparable the vertical depth measurements are. The horizontal position uncertainty is not issued in this study. The analysis was performed on data delivered by two survey contractors, The Norwegian Coastal Admini
