  1. 1. Green Protein Hydrogels and Non-dry Aerogels in Water Purification

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Emanuel Nelsson Vedung; Alexander Singh; Julia Wadefjord; [2022]
    Keywords : Aerogel; Hydrogel; Whey Protein Isolate; Water purification; Adsorption; Sustainability;

    Abstract : Having access to clean water is not a certainty for every human being. Today, there are major problems with polluted water that not just affect us humans, but also the ecosystem around us. In recent years, research into making aerogels from protein nanofibrils (PNF) has increased. READ MORE

  3. 2. Predicting Acute Kidney Injury In Sepsis Patients: A Machine Learning Approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Patrik Laurell; Dwight Lidman; [2022]
    Keywords : machine learning; sepsis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Sepsis-induced Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a common cause of death for sepsis patients, yet it is poorly understood by the medical community. Using Tandem Mass Spectrometry (MS/MS), the blood plasma of 135 sepsis patients has been analyzed to measure protein levels. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exploring Needs and Designing an Interactive Service to Empower Home Dialysis Patients in their Everyday Life

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Abstract : The average life expectancy for people around the world is higher than ever before. Older people are at higher risk of suffering from chronic diseases, including chronic kidney disease. Patients with dysfunctional kidneys need dialysis. The main function of the kidneys is to clean the blood from waste products and excess water. READ MORE

  5. 4. An analysis of creating plastic material based on the microalgae Scenedesmus

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Isabelle Hernodh Svantesson; Saga Grånäs Jakobsson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The microalgae Scenedesmus Bloom are grown in sewage environment and contains, among other things, polymers of saccharides. The polysaccharides can possibly be extracted and used for the manufacturing of plastic material. The algae have a strong cell wall, can grow fast in severe external conditions and shows good ability to capture carbon dioxide. READ MORE

  6. 5. Bioplastic material from microalgae : Extraction of starch and PHA from microalgae to create a bioplastic material

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Nathalie Johnsson; Fredrik Steuer; [2018]

    Abstract : Microalgae used in sewers to capture CO2 eventually turns into waste material. Through the use oftheir biomass, the waste algae can be given a new purpose. In this study attempts to extract starch or PHA from three different algae; Calothrix Scytonemicola, Scenedesmus Almeriensis and Neochloris Oleoabundans, were made. READ MORE
