1. 3D Knit fabrics : optimizing spacer knit fabrics for comfort and breathability in infant products
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiSammanfattning : In this study we looked into an existing textile baby stroller seat and investigated whether there can be any advantage in changing the material to a spacer fabric from perspectives such as functionality, comfort, and sustainability. The subject of 3D knitting, and advanced knitting is being researched more and more because of its versatility in producing and changing parameters of knitted high quality products, but there is a lack of studies done on comfort for children when it comes to knitted spacer fabrics and not many studies have been done on spacer fabrics used for baby seats in strollers or other types of seats for children.

2. Fungal pigmentation responses to microclimatic variables in isolated forest patches in Northern Sweden
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Investigating functional traits is an important tool for understanding fungal communities, yet ecological functions of fungal pigmentation remain poorly investigated. Recent studies support the thermal-melanism hypothesis for fungal color lightness in relation to macroclimate, but it remains unclear if microclimate also affects fungal pigmentation. LÄS MER
3. Statistical Analysis and Modeling of the Behavioral Response to Humidity and Olfactory Cues by the Vinegar Fly Drosophila melanogaster
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikSammanfattning : Animals are impacted by the humidity of their surrounding environment, it affects their ability of thermoregulation, water retention and their overall well-being. For small insects the effects of the surrounding humidity is even more important as they have a limited water storage which depletes faster in a drier environment. LÄS MER
4. Hårfollikelns struktur, funktion och hårpigmenteringens genetiska reglering hos däggdjuren : Samt hur detta kan användas som modell i gymnasieksolan för att ge en djupare förståelse för genetiska interaktioner
Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiSammanfattning : Hårfollikeln är en struktur som hittas hos alla däggdjur. Hår skyddar kroppen från UV-ljus, medverkar i kroppens värmereglering och har flera kommunikativa funktioner. Hårets varierande färg inom och mellan arter är både en fascinerande och intresseväckande egenskap som länge har studerats som en modell för genetisk nedärvning. LÄS MER
5. Inverkan av suggans ålder och utfodring på råmjölkens mängd och sammansättning
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and GeneticsSammanfattning : Newborn piglets have small energy reserves consisting of fat and glycogen, most of which are deposited in the liver and muscle tissues and therefore not available for thermoregulation. Hence, it is of utmost importance for the piglet's survival that it receives nourishment (colostrum) from the sow as soon as possible after birth to cover the piglet’s survival needs and enable a healthy increase in body weight.
