A methodology to achieve sustainability within the food & beverage industry

With the world heading towards a global increase of temperature of more than 1.5°C, societies are trying to limit the dependence on fossil fuel by adopting renewable energy sources in order to limit the emission of greenhouse-gases. This master thesis strove to find a methodology to integrate renewable energy and optimisation measures in the industries of food and beverage to make them more sustai

Photovoltaic Cells Powering Cooling Systems

This master thesis project was carried out at the Division of Innovation Engineering at Lund University and at Axis Communications AB in Lund. The thesis has investigated the possibility of using PV cells as a direct power source for small scale applications to meet the problems of heat management in electrical equipment. The investigation has been performed on a global level as well as on a local

Characterization of Staphylococcus aureus clpX and yjbH mutants selected in vivo

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonises up to 30% of the population and is responsible for diseases ranging from mild skin infections to endocarditis, some of which result in death. This is due to the resistance of MRSA to several commonly used as well as last line antibiotics, complicating treatment further. This study examines clinical MRSA isolates with inactivating mutatio

Validation of a COPD diagnosis from the Swedish Inpatient Registry.

Aims: The Swedish National Inpatient Registry is an important source of data for numerous epidemiological studies, amongst them studies on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). General validation studies indicate that in general 85-95% of diagnoses reported are correct, but this is not true for all groups of diseases, why specific validation studies are of great importance. Methods: Charts

A new invasive insect in Sweden -Physokermes inopinatus - tracing forest damage with satellite based remote sensing.

Forests are important from many perspectives. Forestry delivers products such as timber, fiber and fuel; forests are also important for recreational activities as well as for the global carbon balance. Consequently, it is important to develop methods that enable efficient monitoring of disturbances, such as insect attacks, over vast forested areas. These methods can be based on remote sensing, sin

Vertical greenery systems värdepåverkan på fastigheter

Med en globalt pågående urbanisering har stadsplaneringstrategin förtätning antagits världen över för att skapa urbana miljöer som kan rymma större mängder människor på ett hållbart sätt. Ohållbara konsekvenser har dock uppmärksammats till följd av denna process där grönska och natur är en av stadens dimensioner som har drabbats. Utöver en större värnad av befintliga grönområden inom stadsplanerinWith a globally ongoing urbanization, densification worldwide has been assumed as an urban planning strategy to sustainably accommodate large numbers of people. However, several unsustainable developments have come to attention as a result, where urban green spaces are one aspect that have become negatively affected. Apart from protecting existing natural environments, efforts are made to seek out

Inhumane, Nationalistic, and for Sure European: A Critical Discourse Analysis of the EU’s Humanitarian-Security Paradox & a Normative Power in Crisis

The European Union’s identity as a normative power has long been examined and contested, most famously by Ian Manners' conceptualization in his 2002 work, Normative Power Europe. This study critically reassesses the EU's proposed identity through the lens of its responses to two pivotal crises: the Syrian conflict (2012-2015) and the 2016 EU-Türkiye Refugee Deal. The research interrogates

Calcium and pH interaction limits bloom formation and expansion of a nuisance microalga

Microalgal range expansions are increasing in frequency and magnitude but generally remain unnoticed until mass development occurs. Gonyostomum semen is a freshwater raphidophyte that causes nuisance blooms in lakes and has recently expanded its distribution across Europe. G. semen was considered to mainly occur in humic lakes in the boreal region but is now found in high density also in other fre

Examining equity in Ghana's national REDD+ process

Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation, sustainable forest management, enhancement of forest carbon stocks and conservation (REDD+) aims to reduce the 12–17% of global greenhouse gas emissions attributable to forest loss worldwide. As tropical countries undertake REDD+ readiness, vital questions arise around the equity of REDD+ interventions. In particular, there has been muc

Social-ecological resilience and geomorphic systems

Governance of coupled social-ecological systems (SESs) and the underlying geomorphic processes that structure and alter Earth's surface is a key challenge for global sustainability amid the increasing uncertainty and change that defines the Anthropocene. Social-ecological resilience as a concept of scientific inquiry has contributed to new understandings of the dynamics of change in SESs, increasi

Addressing chemical pollution in biodiversity research

Climate change, biodiversity loss and chemical pollution are planetary-scale emergencies requiring urgent mitigation actions. As these "triple crises" are deeply interlinked, they need to be tackled in an integrative manner. However, while climate change and biodiversity are often studied together, chemical pollution as a global change factor contributing to worldwide biodiversity loss has receive

Large-scale climatic drivers of regional winter bird population trends

Aim: Changes in climate and land use practices have been found to affect animal populations in different parts of the world. These studies have typically been conducted during the breeding season, whereas the non-breeding season (hereafter ‘winter’) has received much less attention. Changes in regional winter abundances could be caused by changes in overall population sizes and/or redistribution o

Proteomic Workflows for High-Quality Quantitative Proteome and Post-Translational Modification Analysis of Clinically Relevant Samples from Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Archives

Well-characterized archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are of much value for prospective biomarker discovery studies, and protocols that offer high throughput and good reproducibility are essential in proteomics. Therefore, we implemented efficient paraffin removal and protein extraction from FFPE tissues followed by an optimized two-enzyme digestion using suspension trapping
