  1. 1. Investigation of an enzymatic cascade for the production of 5- hydroxymethylfurfurylamine

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Sajitha Chandrakumaran; [2023]
    Keywords : Biocatalysis; Silicibacter pomeroyi; transaminase; enzymatic cascade; Cadaverine; Biokatalys; Silicibacter pomeroyi; transaminas; Enzymatisk kaskad; Kadaverin;

    Abstract : Biokatalys medför ett alternativt tillvägagångsätt för att kunna utforska och utveckla kemiskt syntetiserade vägar för produktionen av eftertraktade kemikalier, där hållbarhet och miljön tas till beaktan. I denna studie undersöktes potentialen av en enzymatisk kaskad för produktion av 5-hydroximetylfurfurylamin (HMFA). READ MORE

  3. 2. Point-of-care beta-hydroxybutyrate determination for the management of diabetic ketoacidosis based on flexible laser-induced graphene electrode system

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Sensor- och aktuatorsystem

    Author : Simon Andersson; [2021]
    Keywords : Biosensor; Hydroxybutyrate; Point-of-care; Electrochemical; Enzyme; HB; HBD; Dehydrogenase; Ketosis; Ketones; Diabetes; Immobilisation; Chitosan; Gluteraldehyde; PVB; NADH; NAD ; eHealth; Toluidine blue; Cyclic Voltammetry; Amperometry; Potentiometry; Electro Chemistry; BSA;

    Abstract : Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a life-threatening condition that can appear in patients with diabetes. High ketones in the blood lead to acidity of the blood. For DKA diagnosis and management, ketones such as hydroxybutyrate (HB) can be used to quantify the severity of the disease. READ MORE

  4. 3. Degradation of pesticides by the ligninolytic enzyme Laccase : optimisation of in vitro conditions, immobilisation and screening for natural mediators

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Microbiology

    Author : Naomi Farragher; [2013]
    Keywords : White rot fungi; Laccase; Bioprophylaxis; Diffuse sources; Co-formulation; Degradation; Mediators; Pesticides; Glyphosate; AMPA; Isoproturon; Enzyme encapsulation; Enzyme immobilisation; Natural mediators;

    Abstract : Pesticides are widely used in many industries but the majority reaches non-target organisms or locations through point or diffuse sources. Understanding conditions for their degradation is therefore important. The degradation of glyphosate, its metabolite AMPA and isoproturon using the ligninolytic enzyme laccase was studied. READ MORE
