One widely used method for the detection of active pharmaceutical ingridients is high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). The purpose of using this technique is that it can detect low concentrations of molecules in a solution, as well as separate molecules in a solution from each other. This report will illuminate the aim to implement a method that successfully can detect zoledronic acid, wit

Idag lever ca hälften av världens befolkning i städerna. Detta beräknas öka till ca 60%, närmare 6 miljarder människor till 2030 och en stor fråga som kommer med detta är vart skall alla bo? Jo, det byggs såklart nya bostäder hela tiden för den ökade befolkningen men nästa fråga blir då, vart ska man bygga alla dessa bostäder? Ska de byggas i utkanten av städerna vilket gör att de spiller över på Around half of the world population live within urban areas and is expected increase to encompass 60% by 2030. As the human population increases, cities are forced to densify or expand onto surrounding land, leaving less space for communal green space that supply the urban residents with vital ecosystem services. A resource of green space that thus far hasn’t been explored is private domestic gard

I analyze the effect of a large exogenous trade shock on mortality in the United States between 2002 and 2012. Following the example of Autor, Dorn, and Hanson (2013), I construct a variable that captures the difference in exposure to import competition stemming from differences in initial manufacturing employment structures. I avoid endogeneity issues by instrumenting US commuting zones’ exposure

Developing an e-government in a state has become a new trend in the world of political reform. However, e-government itself as a way of public service digitalization does not incline that political regime of the state will be democratic and inclusive. When e-government has been usually researched in the democratic setting, question marks remain of how it works in the non-democratic one. This paper

Global warming is one of the greatest challenges of our time. To globally reduce green house gas emissions, the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) was created under the Kyoto Protocol. The mechanism allows industrialized nations in the Global North to meet their emission reduction targets under the Kyoto protocol, by purchasing carbon credits generated from CDM projects implemented in developing co

I denna uppsats kommer det att redogöras för förekommande diskurser kring psykisk ohälsa i den norska tv-serien ”Skam” och hur de inverkar på karaktärernas handlingar och uppfattningar om ämnet.

I uppsatsen undersöks vilka effekter flygbolagens lojalitetsprogram har på samhället, för företag samt hos den enskilda konsumenten. Detta görs genom en metaetnografisk litteraturstudie där utvalda sekundärdata analyseras för att hitta synteser, gemensamma drag, för att sedan kunna dra en slutsats. Fyra teorier ligger primärt som stöd för analysen om vilka effekter som påverkar och huruvida dessa

The British people narrowly voted to leave the EU in June 2016, leaving the researchers with the difficult task of predicting an event that has never taken place before. This thesis aims to contribute to the research about Brexit by analyzing, using two different methods, the effects on UK exports to the EU in the scenario of it joining the EEA after leaving the EU. The first approach uses the est

Den här uppsatsen undersöker och jämför fyra svenska tidningars rapportering om invasionen av Irak 2003.

However, elections in the country are marred by violence and the unbalanced participation of men and women. This pap

En studie om införlivandet av Bohuslän jämfört med Skånelänen under år 1662. Materialet som använts är från två kommissioner, en som gjorts i vardera län, och Malmö recess.

Den ska dessutom upplysa om vad för olika förväntningar de två länens st

The exploitation of Sápmi, Sami land, began about 400 years ago. With a post-colonial approach, I, in this essay analyse the discourses behind the law that regulates reindeer herding. With a critical discourse analysis of a government bill (proposition 1971:51) with post-colonial and Marxist theories, I show that discourses of profit and development influence the way Sami culture is perceived. In

The Viking Age has long been understood to be a time of great violence. However, research in the last 50 or so years has tended to focus only on more peaceful aspects of Nordic cultures during that period. This thesis works to change that, and tries to find ways to bring violence back into the fold. The aim of this project is to test Johan Galtung’s needs-based typology of violence against Viking
