  1. 1. Structures of Polyelectrolyte Multilayers and Preasorbed Mucin : The Influence of Counterions

    Författare :Zsombor Feldötö; Eva Blomberg; Regine von Klitzing; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surface and colloid chemistry; Yt- och kolloidkemi;

    Sammanfattning : The focus in this thesis has been to gain a fundamental understanding of how different type of salts affect preadsorbed polyelectrolytes, both natural and synthetic. The knowledge from the fundamental work is then applied on a commercial system to investigate if the efficiency can be enhanced. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Meeting ethical and nutritional challenges in elder care : the life world and system world of staff and high level decision-makers

    Författare :Anna-Greta Mamhidir; Högskolan i Gävle; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Ethical challenges; malnutrition; older adults; elder care staff; integrity promoting care; high level decision-makers; life world; system world.; Ethical challenges; malnutrition; older adults; elder care staff; integrity promoting care; high level decision-makers; life world; system world.;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the thesis was to describe the issue of malnutrition and use it as a focal point of interest in elder care. A further aim was to illuminate how this issue could be addressed focusing on older adults’ integrity and high level decision-makers’ reasoning about ethically difficult situations (I-IV). LÄS MER

  4. 3. Foil-based Lab-on-Chip technologies for advanced Point-of-Care molecular diagnostics
