  1. 1. New methods for determination of airborne pollutants : Focus on tetrabromobisphenol A, organophosphate triesters and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

    Author : Johanna Tollbäck; Ulrika Nilsson; Peter Haglund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Air sampling; sampling methods; indoor air; SPE; SPME; extraction; dynamic extraction; online coupling; SWE; subcritical water extraction; GC MS; LC MS; organophosphate triesters; PAH; tetrabromobisphenol A; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis concerns the development and evaluation of new methods of sampling and analysis of organic pollutants in the indoor and outdoor environment. In Paper I, the development of a new method was reported for the determination of the brominated flame retardant tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) in air using sampling with glass fiber filter and polyurethane foam (PUF), ultrasonic solvent extraction and liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (LC-ESI/MS).

  2. 2. Static Visualizations for Dynamic Hierarchies

    Author : Wiebke Köpp; Tino Weinkauf; Vijay Natarajan; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dynamic hierarchies; Static visualization; Pixel-based visualization; Scalar data; Topology; Layout stability; Dynamiska hierarkier; Statisk visualisering; Pixelbaserad visualisering; Skalärdata; Topologi; Layout-stabilitet; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Abstract : Dynamic hierarchical data describes phenomena in a wide range of domains, from file management to demographics and business administration, as well as feature extraction results in spatial scientific data. As with all data, visualization is an integral step for gaining understanding about dynamic hierarchical data. READ MORE

  3. 3. A Novel Miniaturised Dynamic Hollow-Fibre Liquid-Phase Micro-Extraction Method for Xenobiotics in Human Plasma Samples

    Author : Helena Hansson; Ulrika Nilsson; Bo Karlberg; Peter Haglund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; sample clean-up; human blood plasma; hollow-fibre liquid phase microextraction; supported liquid membrane extraction; SLM; HF-LPME; sample preparation; bioanalysis; liquid-liquid extraction; Chemistry; Kemi; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Bioanalytical chemistry is a challenging field, often involving complex samples, such as blood, plasma, serum or urine. In many applications, sample cleanup is the most demanding and time-consuming step. READ MORE

  4. 4. Model Based Coding : Initialization, Parameter Extraction and Evaluation

    Author : Zhengrong Yao; Haibo Li; Ralf Schäfer; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Signalbehandling; Model-based coding; Motion estimation; Vision based tracking; Initialization; Analysis-by-Synthesis; Texture mapping; Active tracking.; Signalbehandling; Signal processing; Signalbehandling; Signal Processing; signalbehandling;

    Abstract : This thesis covers topics relevant to model-based coding. Model-based coding is a promising very low bit rate video coding technique. The idea behind this technique is to parameterize a talking head and to extract and transmit the parameters describing facial movements. At the receiver, the parameters are used to reconstruct the talking head. READ MORE

  5. 5. Development of dynamic microwave and sonication-assisted extraction techniques coupled on-line to gas chromatography

    Author : Magnus Ericsson; Tuulia Hyötyläinen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the evaluation and construction of two solvent extraction methods for solid samples. The techniques are called Dynamic microwaveassisted extraction (I-III) and Dynamic sonication-assisted solvent extraction (IV-V). Both techniques are based on dynamic solvent extraction and are performed at elevated temperatures and pressures. READ MORE
