  1. 21. Phenotype and function of imiquimod-treated MUTZ-3 derived Langerhans cells in potential psoriatic 3D skin model

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Emilie Allentoft Schousboe; [2023]
    Keywords : 3D models; imiquimod; Langerhans cells; MUTZ-3 cell line; pro-inflammatory cytokines; psoriasis;

    Abstract : Upon encounter of an antigen, epidermis-resident Langerhans cells (LCs) become activated and present the processed antigen to T cells of the draining lymph nodes, resulting in tolerogenic or inflammatory responses. In psoriasis plaques, skin homeostasis is disrupted and replaced by an inflammatory dermatitis. READ MORE

  2. 22. Evaluation of key performance indices for frequency quality : A method for evaluating frequency stability in the Nordic power system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Sophia Larbi Engelbrektsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ancillary Services; Kinetic Energy; Frequency Dependent Load; Frequency Stability; Frequency Quality; KPI; Nordic Power System; Frekvensberoende Last; Frekvenskvalité; Frekvensstabilitet; Kinetisk Energi; Nordiska Elsystemet; Nyckeltal; Stödtjänster;

    Abstract : The Nordic power system is in a changing phase, with more power electronic interfaced connections, and HVDC connections to other synchronous areas, which impacts the frequency quality. This is a challenge for the transmission system operator of Sweden, Svenska Kraftnät, who, with the other Nordic transmission system operators, is responsible for the physical balancing of the Nordic power system.

  3. 23. Evaluation of two-stage GAC filtration for PFAS reduction in drinking water

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Julia Söderberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances PFAS ; Granular activated carbon GAC ; drinking water; removal efficiency; DWTP;

    Abstract : PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a group of chemicals found in a wide range of industrial and consumer products. Due to their persistent nature and widespread use, concerns have been raised about their impact on human health and the environment. READ MORE

  4. 24. A VVER1000 primary side model in Apros

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Karl-Edvin Strand; [2023]
    Keywords : Apros; VVER1000; PWR; Modelling; HPIS; Boron acid; Apros; VVER1000; PWR; Modellering; HPIS; Borsyra;

    Abstract : Nuclear power plants generate electricity by means of splitting atoms. The basic safety requirements and objectives are to protect the people, society, and the environment from radiological accidents, limit harmful effects of ionizing radiation during operation and take all reasonable practical steps to prevent radiological accidents.

  5. 25. Hypoxia and hematopoietic stem cell control with the substance Adaptaquin : An evaluation of hematopoietic stem cell’s proliferation and differentiation in artificially induced hypoxia

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Jens Christiansen; [2023]
    Keywords : Adaptaquin; Flow cytometry; Hematopoietic stem cells; Hypoxia; Hypoxia inducible factor; Prolyl hydroxylase; Adaptaquin; Flödescytometri; Hematopoetiska stamceller; Hypoxi; Hypoxi inducerande faktor; Prolylhydroxylas;

    Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have historically been difficult to maintain ex vivo with many attempts to culture them in vitro by mimicking their natural biological environment. Providing a hypoxic environment is one way to achieve this goal and can be performed by using hypoxia stimulating compounds that inhibits the degradation of HIF1a which plays an important role in regulating hypoxia.
