The key elements of sourdough fermentation are the presence of active lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeast. Sourdough fermentation originates from the ancient Egypt. One theory concerning its onset states that a portion of bread dough was set aside to be baked at a later date and started to ferment spontaneously.Sourdough may contain a wide variety of microorganisms, mainly dominated by LAB and yeast. There are over 50 species of LAB that has been identified in various sourdoughs and more than 20 species of yeast. Sourdough fermentation has been shown to have various impacts on baked cereal good, most of which are attributed to LAB.This study addresses some effects of LAB from fermented milk products in sourdough and sourdough bread.

Jag har tidigare haft mina funderingar över att reflektera kring mitt eget verk och mitt eget komponerande. Funderingar om att det skulle bli för personligt och utlämnande. Det finns dock något spännande i att skriva om sig själv och sitt komponerande, en möjlighet att göra en resa inom sig själv. Så jag har i slutändan beslutat mig för att ta denna chans att skriva om mina tankar kring musik och om hur jag arbetar med utommusikalisk inspiration i mitt komponerande.Orkesterstycket Kanoper, den klingande delen av mitt examensarbete, är inspirerat av den egyptiska mytologin och gudavärlden; utan att jag är religös eller en anhängare av den gammelegyptiska tron, men jag har en förkärlek för det mytiska. Mytologi har varit ett stort nöje och en inspirationskälla för mig enda sedan jag var ett litet barn och jag lånade böcker om grekisk, egyptisk och nordisk mytologi fra?n familjens bokhyllor, först kanske mest för att titta på bilder men allteftersom jag lärde mig läsa så var det några av de första böckerna jag läste.

The purpose of this study is to analyse asylum seeking converts understanding of their conversion process based on church context, specifically within the realm of evangelical church and theology. Through the method of content analysis this essay analyses six qualitative interviews done with converts from two Islamic traditions to Swedish free church Christianity. The essay discusses the results through the lens of Lewis Rambos seven-phase theoretical concept of conversion. The important results given by this study shows that the first contact with other Christians in a new country, which creates a new community serving as an interpretive framework for their lives, triumphs the question of the theological perception for the conversion. Also, the results shows that intellectual understanding of the doctrines of faith is less important relative to the conversion process best described by the words touched, taught, and transformed.

This paper examines the texts written on shards from wine-jars found at El-Amarna, Tutankhamuns tomb (KV 62) and Deir el-Medina. Information concerning the administration of wine and its production, found in these texts, is examined. Wine was an important element in Egyptian society and a common iconographic motif in tombs at Thebes during New Kingdom.A survey on previous research on the subject is presented. This is followed by analysis of the different reoccurring elements found in the texts. A definition of the standard formulation of the wine jar label texts is given and the minimal level of information needed for the administration of wine production and distribution is identified. The chapter of the analysis deals with the various types of information given in the label texts, such as date, wine classification, and function.
