1. 21. Interpretation of geophysical and geochemical data in a 3D geological model construction of a contaminated site

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

   Author : Haoyu Wei; [2018]
   Keywords : Halogenated hydrocarbon; Geophysics; DCIP; GeoScene3D; Groundwater chemistry; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The Alingsås dry-cleaning facility is one of the heavily halogenated hydrocarbon contaminated sites in Sweden. The source of contamination dates back to the 1970s when a large scale tetrachloroethylene leakage outbroke inside the dry-cleaning building. READ MORE

3. 22. Dynamic modelling of bathing water quality with biodegradation of Escherichia coli in TELEMAC-3D

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Louise Selméus; [2018]
   Keywords : Escherichia coli; Bathing water quality; TELEMAC-3D; Biodegradation; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Bathing water is of great concern as almost all bodies of water in Sweden today are affected by human activities. Usage of models for bathing water quality may give the possibility to assess and evaluate short-term contamination. READ MORE

4. 23. Skin barrier: Extraction and characterization of Stratum Corneum lipids

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

   Author : Nicolas Velásquez González; [2018]
   Keywords : stratum corneum; skin barrier; lipids; physical chemistry; fysikalisk kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : The structure and dynamics of isolated Stratum Corneum lipids in different temperatures and hydration conditions was investigated using natural abundance 13 C NMR and X-ray scattering. In order to isolate the lipids a new extraction method was tested. The novel aspect of this method was its ability to extract more lipids from SC. READ MORE

5. 24. Prokaryotic expression of human complement regulator factor H domains and their interaction withPneumococcal surface protein PspC

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för bioteknologi (BIO)

   Author : Nils Lindström; [2017]
   Keywords : complement regulator; factor H; Pneumococci; interaction; E.coli; surface protein; PspC;

   Abstract : One of the oldest and most exciting questions in science is: are we alone in the universe? During the last four billion years of Earth’s history, countless organisms have inhabited almost every environmental niche on the planet, from the deepest sea to driest deserts. However, so far no extraterrestrial life has been found. READ MORE

6. 25. Effect of Environmental Factors on Pore Water Pressure in River Bank Sediments, Sollefteå, Sweden

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Hanna Fritzson; [2017]
   Keywords : negative pore water pressures; matrix suction; silt slope; slope stability; pore water pressure variations; negativa porvattentryck; siltslänt; släntstabilitet; porvattentrycksvariationer;

   Abstract : Pore water pressure in a silt slope in Sollefteå, Sweden, was measured from 2009-2016. The results from2009-2012 were presented and evaluated in a publication by Westerberg et al. (2014) and this report is an extension of that project.In a silt slope the pore water pressures are generally negative, contributing to the stability of theslope. READ MORE
