  1. 1. Cancer Risk Assessment of Glycidol : Evaluation of a Multiplicative Risk Model for Genotoxic Compounds

    Författare :Jenny Aasa; Margareta Törnqvist; Elaine M. Faustman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; glycidol; 3-monochloropropane-1; 2-diol 3-MCPD ; genotoxicity; mutations; micronuclei; hemoglobin adducts; in vivo dose; multiplicative risk model; cancer risk assessment; human cancer risk; miljökemi; Environmental Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Humans are exposed to chemical compounds in everyday life, both from the environment and from endogenous processes. Some compounds constitute a risk for cancer development. One such compound is glycidol, which is genotoxic and an animal carcinogen. It is the model compound of this work, partly due to its presence in food. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Supply Chain Risk Management : Identification, Evaluation and Mitigation Techniques

    Författare :S.Nurmaya Musa; Ou Tang; Jan Olhager; David Zhang; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Supply chain risk management; risk analysis; risk control; co-citation; system dynamics; modelling;

    Sammanfattning : Supply chains have expanded rapidly over the decades, with the aim to increase productivity, lower costs and fulfil demands in emerging markets. The increasing complexity in a supply chain hinders visibility and consequently reduces one’s control over the process. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Risk, Relative Standing and Property Rights: Rural Household Decision-Making in China

    Författare :Ping Qin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Choice experiment; China; Field experiment; Forestry; Household decision-making; Inequality; Ignoring attributes; Investment; Relative standing; Risk; MWTP; Property rights.;

    Sammanfattning : Paper 1 examines the concern for relative standing among rural households in China. We used a survey-experimental method to measure to what extent poor Chinese farmers care about their relative income and found that the respondents cared to a high degree. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Individual Preferences, Choices, and Risk Perceptions - survey based evidence

    Författare :Elina Lampi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; administrators; aircraft; airports; birth order; choice experiment; citizens; environmental policy; female infertility; free entrance; general risk; health care; information; media; museum; natural experiment; noise; only-child; optimistic bias; personal risk; positional concern; relative income; siblings; stated preferences; visitor composition.;

    Sammanfattning : Paper 1 investigates how birth order and having siblings affect positional concerns in terms of success at work and of income. We find that only-children are the most positional, but that number of siblings increases the concern for their position among those who grew up together with siblings. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Fate of organic carbon in a tropical mangrove ecosystem

    Författare :John Machiwa; Michael Risk; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biogeochemistry; biogeokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to study the budget and fluxes of organic carbon in a tropical mangrove forest. Maruhubi forest is located in the Island of Zanzibar, East Africa. Aspects of structure and functions of the ecosystem are investigated. LÄS MER
