  1. 1. 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

  3. 2. Aroma components of long ripened cheese and their origin, variation and contribution to flavour : with focus on propionic acid

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Sandra Carlsson; [2021]
    Keywords : cheese ripening; aroma components; volatile compounds; metabolism of lactose; lactate and citrate; ; proteolysis; lipolysis; propionic acid bacteria; sensory evaluation;

    Abstract : Flavour compounds in cheese are formed by metabolism of residual lactose, lactate and citrate, proteolysis and lipolysis through the activity of e.g., starter bacteria. Generally identified aroma components in cheese are fatty acids, esters, alcohols, ketones, lactones, aldehydes, and sulphur compounds. READ MORE

  5. 4. Exploring amino acid metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae for improved eco-efficient production of chiral amine

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Author : Anna Karlsson; [2019]
    Keywords : 1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine; amino acid; aminotransaminase; biotransformation; chiral amine; metabolically engineered; saccharomyces cerevisiae;

    Abstract : Kirala aminer används idag både som aktiva substanser och som bindningsmedel i flertalet läkemedel, dock är dagens produktion med kinetic resolution ineffektiv vilket gör att mer effektiva och miljövänliga produktionssätt eftersträvas. Biotransformation har visat sig både vara miljövänligt och en effektiv metod för att producera kirala aminer. READ MORE
