Non-diegetic film music as a narrative agency in Christopher Nolan's Interstellar (2014)

This study sets out to investigate the non-diegetic music in Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar (2014) in order to highlight its implicit narrative functions and meanings. The theoretical approach consists of semiotic concepts such as ‘Cognitive denotative’ and ‘Cognitive connotative’ functions by Emilio Audissino, ‘Myth’ and ‘Anchorage’ by Barthes as well as Claudia Gorbman’s ‘Connotative Cueing’.

Finding a stabilized sequence for reconstructed Icosahedra Lumazine Synthase by random mutagenesis and Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting

Proteiner är de små byggstenar som bygger upp nästan allt omkring oss. Proteiner bygger upp våra kroppar och utför olika funktioner som är livsviktiga för alla djur, växter och andra organismer. Byggstenarna kan ha olika former och utseende och de har olika funktioner. Det finns proteiner som hjälper till att bryta ner maten vi äter, proteiner som bygger upp våra muskler och massor av andra proteiLumazine Synthase forms pentamers, C5 in some organism and icodahedra, Ih in other. The aim of this project is to investigate which evolutionary steps could have led the pentamers to assembly into icosahedral capsids. Therefore prevoius work has been performed to reconstruct ancestral sequences for the pentameric and icosahedral forms of Lumazine Synthase. The icosahedral sequence had been express

Effect of maize soaking, germination and fermentation on phytate content and its contribution towards improving nutrients bioavailability

The presence of phytate in plants-based food is considered a threat to proper nutrition in developing countries and in particular in rural areas. There is evidence of micronutrient deficiencies due to the presence of phytate in plant-based diets. People from low income households are most affected by diets rich in phytate. The aim of this study was to investigate different processes through which

Sectoral Decomposition of Technology-adjusted CO2 Emissions from International Trade in China 1999-2009

In the context of increasing focus on the climate change China is being blamed for its large contribution to global CO2 emissions, which have been produced within China’s territory. However, increasing number of researches have started to argue that the developed countries should be held responsible for displacing their emissions by outsourcing pollution-heavy production to the developing countrie

The Environmental Kuznets Curve: Examining the relationship between income and technology-adjusted consumption-based CO2 emissions

This study aims to investigate whether countries succeed to reduce their contribution to global emissions when countries reach higher levels of income. As a result of rapid changes in international trade, a country’s emission responsibility goes beyond national borders, which should be adequately captured in their carbon footprint. This study discusses that the two conventional accounting measures
