SAMMANFATTNINGMastit är en multifaktoriell sjukdom som orsakar stora förluster för dagens högproducerande mjölkbesättningar. Vid subkliniska mastiter sker förlusterna främst genom förlorad avkastning över tiden. I Sverige rekommenderas riktadintramammär sintidsbehandling med antibiotika vid sub-kliniska mastiter. Syftet med denna studie var att studera den bakteriologiska effekten av riktad sintidsterapi.Effekten av sintidsbehandlingar vid Jälla försöksbesättning studerades med hjälp av data från åren 1997-2008. Det studerade materialet bestod av 152 kor med sammanlagt 201 laktationer varav 58 % hos SRB och 42 % hos SLB.

This report is about how to decide which method is the most suitable as floor covering at projectKlammerdamm in the centre of Halmstad. The covering has to be fire resistant and soundproof inorder to protect the wood structure and stop noise from traveling between apartments. There aretwo possibilities either traditional gypsum board or gypsum-based self leveling underlayment.The roads around the construction site are narrow. A regular twenty-five meter long truck has nopossibility to reach the site. The construction site is small and the storage area is limited.

Barley is one of the most important cereals cultivated in the Nordic countries. Climate change brings warmer and moisture climate which favors fungal diseases. In the cropland barley can be seriously infested with hard fungus attack. Since it is important that the yield bears a high quality it is of great importance to find varieties more resistant to attacks.Pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins are stress proteins induced in the plant in response to infection and abiotic stress (van Loon, 1997). PRs are shown to have antimicrobial activity differing between bacteria, fungi and oomycetes (Tandrup Poulsen, 2001).

The interest for power and energy measurement has greatly raised with todays increasing electricity prices and enviromental awareness. In the search for energy efficient solutions, the measurements are more complex due to increasing of non linear components. Harmonics and non sinusoidal voltages put high demands on sampling and filtering. Meanwhile, the price must be controlled so the customer still will find it interesting to invest in smaller plants. ITT W&WW asks for a robust, heat resistant power meter with compact dimensions to allow mounting inside the casing of a pump.

Hästar har funnits vid människans sida i över 6000 år och används sedan några decennier tillbaka inom humanvården i form av så kallad hästunderstödd terapi. Syftet med den här litteraturstudien är att redogöra för bakgrunden till att hästar kan användas till detta, vilka effekter som kan ses med fokus på behandling av barn med autism och äldre personer samt överskådligt ta upp vilka risker som finns associerade med terapiformen. Framför allt är det egenskapen av att vara ett flockdjur som gör att hästar kan används inom psykoterapi. Hästar är känsliga för andra individers signaler och reagerar utifrån dessa vilket har visat sig användbart för att hjälpa människor att stärka sin självbild och tillit. Utöver den psykologiska aspekten av hästunderstödd terapi finns också den fysiska. Inom ridterapi drar man nytta av hästens rörelsemönster för att stärka bland annat muskelfunktion och balans hos människor med fysiska funktionsnedsättningar.

This report includes common helminths, symtoms, routes of infection, diagnostic laboratory techniques and prophylactic methods to prevent infection. We have pointed out where there is a risk of zoonotic transmission and how to avoid contamination and infection. We have restricted the number of species to the most common helminths. Some of these helminths do not naturally occur in Sweden (yet) but are nevertheless of current interest when we travel across borders with our horses, dogs and cats. The diagnostic part of our report tells about different techniques to find an occurance of helminths in samples of faeces, blood, urine or saliva from a horse, dog or cat. We also write about some recommendations on treating parasitic infections and the development of anthelmintic resistant helminths that originates from incorrect use of anthelmintic drugs .

Cnior Mobile AB i Lindesberg utvecklar en mobil trygghetstelefon för äldre. Detta examensarbete går ut på att utforma en handsfree-enhet för denna. Handsfree-enheten ska integreras i larmknappen, som bärs av användaren runt handleden, och har kontakt med telefonen via blåtandsradio. I examensarbetet ingår att välja ut lämplig högtalare och mikrofon, hitta lösningar för smuts- och vattentålighet samt att lösa problem med ekon och bakgrundsstörningar.En högtalare hittades som uppfyllde kraven för smuts- och vattentålighet samtidigt som den hade utmärkt frekvensgång för återgivning av tydligt tal. Vattenavrinning från högtalaren löstes genom att ett sinussvep sänds ut från högtalaren varje gång ett samtal ska kopplas upp.

Stafylococcus aureus, Stafylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, Streptococcuspyogenes och Bacillus sp. är bakterier som förekommer i vår normalflora eller runt om ivår omgivning. De är i de allra flesta fall harmlösa men kan orsaka sjukdom ifall dehamnar i t.ex. sår eller kontaminerar mat. Vissa av dessa bakterier har även en tendens attutveckla resistens mot antibiotika, infektioner orsakade av resistenta bakterier kan bliallvarliga och väldigt svåra att behandla.

This literature review summarizes available data on infection with the parasitic roundworm, Ascaridia galli, as a cause of disease in poultry, including the consequences of a conversion to alternative production systems. Ascaridia galli has a direct life cycle with resistant eggs that survive and are easily spread in the environment, especially in systems with bedding materials where the faecal contact is high. The infection is usually subclinical but depending on the infection dose, the symptoms range from weight loss and diarrhea to mortality. Factors such as the feed composition and genetic variation among different hybrids clearly affect the establishment rate of the infection. Ascaridia galli will probably become an increasing problem, with a shift from the traditional battery cages to alternative systems where the risk of re-infection is high.

Stem rust, Puccinia graminis, has caused enormous yield losses throughout history which have had significant consequences for oat and wheat production. Today in Sweden stem rust is only reported from rye, oats and wild grasses. Stem rust infections in wheat have become unusual due to the general use of resistant wheat varieties and also due to the eradication of barberry, Berberis vulgaris, the alternate host for P. graminis. According to international sources, new races of P.

The aim of this study was to illuminate how social workers in social services work with the social phenomenon, homelessness in two municipalities. The study is based on qualitative semi-structured interviews with interviewees from a department of social services. Our theories that we used was resistant inequality, structural discrimination, exclusion, empowerment and representation. After compilation of our empirical our conclusions are that homelessness is a complex phenomenon. Social workers handles homelessness based on client?s needs and the work is individualized.
