Klumprotsjuka : varför drabbas vissa lantbrukare hårdare än andra?
Klumprotsjuka är en skadegörare som orsakar stora ekonomiska förluster inom oljeväxtodling. Syftet med den här studien har varit att undersöka om vi kunde hitta några faktorer som är viktiga att tänka på för att inte drabbas av klumprotsjuka. Vi har intervjuat lantbrukare på tre gårdar som är drabbade av klumprotsjuka och försökt hitta samband i deras brukningssätt som kan ha bidragit till deras smitta. Vi har tagit jordanalys och klumprotsjuketest på två fält hos varje lantbrukare. Jordanalyserna har tagits för att bland annat kunna studera skillnader på jordarter och pH.
Optimization of Burner Kiln 7, Cementa Slite
In this report focus is put on the combustion process at a cement plant. Combustion is the
heart of the cement making process and absolutely crucial to have under full control and well
optimized.
The fuel is put into the process through a burner pipe and this burner pipe is modified to
reach a more efficient combustion. The primary target is to enable burning of heterogeneous
alternative fuels and increase the production level. Other positive effects from this type of
optimization is lowered specific fuel consumption and lowered CO2 emissions.
A redundant burner is chosen for the project and overall the project steps are the following:
1. Installing a Jet air nozzle ring in a way so it can move both axially and radially due to
temperature changes.

Bakom kulisserna på Migrationsverket : En kvalitativ studie om handläggarnas uppfattning av den psykosociala arbetsmiljön.
Due to stress, the workplace is a setting where actions of health promotion are of great importance in the perspective of public health. Stress is caused by heavy workload, low control of organizing their tasks and lack of support from colleagues and supervisors. This can lead to cardiovascular disease, depression and insomnia. Due to the health problems that this causes, it is important to examine how senior immigration offices perceive their psychosocial work environment.The aim of this thesis is to examine how the senior immigration offices at the Migration Board perceive their psychosocial work environment. The study is based on a qualitative approach with deductive content analysis and the data has therefore been collected through interviewing six people based on a semi-structured interview guide.The result has shown that the senior immigration offices are pleased with their work environment and that their workload is constantly changing.

Implementering och verifiering av kvantitativ ELISA för analys av Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin A och C
Varje år uppskattas en halv miljon svenskar drabbas av matförgiftning och knappt en tredjedelrapporteras ha drabbats av en matförgiftning orsakad av bakterier eller bakteriella toxiner.Under år 2007 drabbades drygt 2500 EU-medborgare av matförgiftning orsakade avstafylokockenterotoxiner (SEs). I livsmedel har man sett att produktion av SEs framförallt ärkopplat till Staphylococcus aureus. Studier har visat att SEA följt av övriga klassiska SEs ärde toxin som oftast orsakar matförgiftningar.Detta kandidatarbete har haft som mål att sätta upp en ELISA för kvantitativ bestämning avstafylokockenterotoxin A och C i BHI-buljong (brain heart infusion) och pastöriserad mjölkmed fetthalt 1,5 %. Ytterligare mål var att fastställa nedre gränsen för att kvantitativtbestämma enterotoxininnehållet med använd ELISA. Detta för att kunna jämföraenterotoxinproduktionen hos S.

Inte för alla -? En kvantitativ studie om journaliststudenters representation av allmänheten i Nicaragua
In our bachelor thesis we have strived to examine the representation of journalism students in Nicaragua. The freedom of press is much lower compared to Sweden and the journalist profession is protected by a certificate. It is also a high level of corruption within the country. Our investigation concerns who has access to the journalist education and the goal is to compare that with the public in Nicaragua. To be able to examine the representation among the journalism students we have chosen seven different aspects to examine, the sex of the student, witch social class they belong to, their academic background, religion, ethnicity, geographical belonging and political view.
Korrekt smärtbedömning ? en mänsklig rättighet : Smärtbedömning hos personer med Alzheimers sjukdom
Bakgrund: svårigheter uppstår med kommunikationen mellan patient och sjuksköterskan vid insjuknande i Alzheimers sjukdom vilket leder till hinder i smärtbedömning av personer med Alzheimers sjukdom jämfört med bedömningen avpersoner utan kognitiv nedsättning. Syfte: syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa vikten av korrekt smärtbedömning hos patienter med Alzheimers sjukdom. Metod: studien var en litteraturstudie, 12 artiklar samtliga kvantitativa som svarade mot studiens syfte har granskats och analyserats. Resultat och konklusion: bedömning av smärta hos patienter med Alzheimers sjukdom är komplex, slutsatsen är tvetydig då resultatet visar dels att personer med Alzheimers sjukdom har mer smärta respektive mindre smärta än personer utan kognitiv nedsättning. Bedömningsinstrumenten som undersöktes i studien visade sig vara relevanta men ansvar och kunskap från sjukvårdspersonalen som använder instrumentet var ett krav för att kunna utesluta felkällor av tecken på smärta så som onormala rörelser, beteende och ljud.
