  1. 1. Relations between intracellular pH and gamma-aminobutyric acid levels in tea (Camellia sinensis) leaves, after two types of anaerobic treatment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Mingmin Tao; [2023]
    Keywords : tea leaves; intracellular pH; gamma-aminobutyric acid; glutamate; decarboxylase; fluorescent dye;

    Abstract : Tea (Camellia sinensis) is one of the three major non-alcoholic beverages in the world. In Gabaron tea, the levels of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) are more than 1.3 mg/g. In the human body, GABA lowers blood pressure and cholesterol levels. READ MORE

  2. 2. Solid-state fermentation of the microalgae Scenedesmus sp. for improved conservation and protein digestibility

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : André Nordin Fürdös; [2023]

  3. 3. Energy & redox fluxes in Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 on different sugars

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Katarzyna Bengtsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Energy; redox fluxes; Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938; different sugars; applied microbiology; teknisk mikrobiologi; Biology and Life Sciences; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Under anaerobic condition the specific growth rate of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 on different sugars, was analyzed using spectrophotometry. Electron acceptor (fructose) supported cells to cope with poor energy recovery by re-oxidising the NADH, thus enabling ATP formation thru acetate production, while fermenting glucose via the phosphoketolase pathway (PKP) and simultaneously operating via Embden-Meyerhof pathway (EMP).

  4. 4. Do different levels of lactate have an impact on mTORC1-signal and protein synthesis induced by resistance exercise?

    University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

    Author : Rasmus Liegnell; [2018]
    Keywords : mtorc1; lactate; hypertrophy; muscle cell; resistance exercise;

    Abstract : Aim: To investigate the role of lactate as a potential signaling molecule, for the molecular mechanisms underlying acute resistance exercise adaptation in the muscle cell.    Method: Four women and four men recruited to perform two trials of unilateral leg extension exercise performed with either an infusion of sodium lactate or isotonic saline (placebo), in a randomized, blinded, crossover fashion.

  5. 5. Inhibiting malate metabolism in L. plantarum 299v by introducing lactic acid in ProViva apple drinks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Madeleine Göransson; [2016]
    Keywords : Microbiology; Product development; Lactic acid; Lactobacillus plantarum 299v; ProViva Apple drink; Preservative; food technology; livsmedelsteknologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis aimed to evaluate the possibilities of inhibition of Lactobacillus plantarum 299v metabolism of malate by introduction of lactic acid in ProViva apple drinks. The malate metabolism of L. READ MORE
