    Abstract : There is still a debate concerning the evidence base for community interventions. The randomised clinical trial design (RCT) is increasingly challenged as a gold standard for their evaluation. READ MORE

  4. 17. Solar energy for a brighter life. A case study of rural electrification through solar photovoltaic technology in the Eastern Province, Zambia

    Author : Mathias Gustavsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rural development; rural electrification; distributed generation; photovoltaic technology; solar home system; energy services; Zambia; Sub Saharan Africa;

    Abstract : Electricity is taken for granted in many parts of the world. In Sub-Saharan Africa, typically less than 5% of the rural population have access to this energy source. Even though electricity in itself does not lead to development, it can support a development process. READ MORE

    Author : Anne Algers; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; open educational resources; work-based learning; sustainable development; animal welfare; food quality; food science; cultural historical activity theory; design;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to explore ways of organising and supporting open learning in food science, food quality and animal welfare at the boundary between society, the university and other academic institutions. Two specific practices are explored, work-based learning (WBL) and the use of open educational resources (OER). READ MORE

  6. 19. Advances in analytical methodologies for studies of the platinum metallome in malignant cells exposed to cisplatin

    Author : Yvonne Nygren; Erik Björn; Knut Irgum; Bente Gammelgaard; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Method development; Metallome; Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry; Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry; Liquid chromatography; Hyphenation; Organic modifier; Cisplatin; Platinum; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; analytisk kemi; Analytical Chemistry;

    Abstract : The scientific progress about the important chemotherapeutic drug substance cisplatin (CDDP) and its function has often been rendered by data difficult to interpret, and still many questions about its mode of action remains to be clarified by the scientific community. However, studies of CDDP possess a high complexity due to; i) low intracellular concentration, ii) many potential biomolecule targets, iii) poor or unknown stability of the intact drug and its biomolecule adducts and iv) complex and varying sample matrices.
