  1. 1. Firm Dynamics, Productivity and Demand Shocks: A Study of Indian Manufacturing Plants

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : S Ravish Rizvi; [2023]
    Keywords : Productivity; Firm dynamics; Demand; Manufacturing;

    Abstract : Firm growth in the Indian manufacturing sector has puzzled economists for many years due to the persistence of many small and unproductive plants. I study the importance of producer-specific demand, along with productivity and prices, for firm dynamics in this setting. READ MORE

  2. 2. The Effect of Leveraged Buyouts on Employment Growth and Productivity - Evidence From European LBOs

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Hidar Shaba; Teo Siterius; [2023]
    Keywords : Employment growth; Labour Productivity; LBO; Private Equity; Buyouts; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the post-buyout effect on employment growth in LBOs relative to targets that were not subject to an LBO. Additionally, the study aims to provide an up-to-date insight into the impact of employment productivity post-buyout of the LBOs relative to non-LBOs, as the climate of buyouts have changed since its inception.

  3. 3. Assessment of promoter regulation in Pseudomonas putida using GFP and flow cytometry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Luka Cululejevic; [2022]
    Keywords : applied microbiology; Pseudomonas putida; promoter characterization; aromatic compounds; vanillin; guaiacol; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Lignin is found in all biomass and is an abundant natural source of aromatic compounds. It has the potential to serve as a renewable raw material for a variety of chemicals currently derived from fossil fuel sources such as muconic acid, an important platform chemical. Kraft lignin is a waste stream from the pulp and paper industry. READ MORE

  4. 4. In-vivo imaging of root growth in response to localized mechanical stress

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Leah Eitelberg; [2022]
    Keywords : kinematics analysis; time-lapse imaging; root growth rate; root curvature; soil heterogenety; local mechanical stress;

    Abstract : By taking up nutrients and water, root growth has an important influence on plant growth and productivity. Thereby, root growth is influenced by its surrounding soil conditions, which vary spatially even on a small scale. Hence, different parts of the root system are exposed to different penetration resistances in the soil. READ MORE

  5. 5. Gene overexpression screens to identify limitations on the productivity of cyanobacteria growth

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Tobias Willi; [2020]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; Dub-sequencing; competitive growth; overexpression library; Synechocystis 6803; Synechococcus 7002; Synechococcus UTEX 2973; Photobioreactor; Conjugation; mobA;

    Abstract : Cyanobacteria are a model organism for photosynthesis and the Calvin cycle, and a promising chassis for 4th generation biofuel production. There are many ongoing efforts to improve the performance of cyanobacteria, in terms of CO2 fixation and production rate of biofuels. READ MORE
