  3. 2. Evaluation of antioxidant effect of an algae extract on skin: in vitro study

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Oday Al Mustafa; [2023]
    Keywords : Algae extract; antioxidant; DPPH; microalgae; ROS; skin covered oxygen electrode; skin;

    Abstract : Algae extracts are used as cosmetic products and used as additives in specific foods because of their antioxidant activity. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide and superoxide radicals are toxic on the skin and can be scavenged by antioxidants, which are abundant in microalgae. READ MORE

  6. 5. DNA damage – a novel method to measure the rate of single-stranded breaks from fragmenting dsDNA in nanochannels – theory and modeling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Magnus Brander; [2020]
    Keywords : biophysics; DNA damage; single-stranded breaks; double-stranded breaks; Bayesian inference; Brownian motion; Gillespie algorithm; photosensitized DNA damage; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Damage to DNA can cause death to an individual cell and serious harm to the host organism. Photosensitized reactions are one cause of DNA damage. It can lead to destructive chemical reactions targeted to a base of the DNA as well as a breakage along one or both of the DNA strands. READ MORE
