  1. 16. Characterization of potato protein and its calcium binding capacity

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi; Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Signe König; Erika Thomson; [2023]
    Keywords : Patatin; Calcium; Food supplement; Calcium Assay; Alcalase; potato protein; Applied biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Calcium is essential for the human body as it has functions in the nervous system, bones and formation of teeth. Deficiency in this important nutrient can be detrimental to health and cause life-long issues. Calcium can be found in various foods, like dairy products, but certain plant-based alternatives to milk needs to be fortified with calcium. READ MORE

  3. 17. Fouling modelling in a UHT unit based on plant data.

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

    Author : Thai Lam; [2023]
    Keywords : UHT; dairy; tubular heat exchanger; fouling development; fouling removal; food engineering; Technology and Engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : Heat treatment of dairy products is essential for food safety, one way to perform this is ultra-high temperature (UHT) processing. During the process, macronutrients and minerals form fouling deposits which impairs heat transfer. Eventually the fouling needs to be removed chemically by alkaline and acidic detergents. READ MORE

  4. 18. Computational study of the photophysical properties of two related photosensitizer proteins

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Benjamin Fégeant; [2023]
    Keywords : Photosensitizer proteins; QM MM; photophysics; molecular dynamics; computational protocol for protein preparation; Fotosensibiliserande proteiner; QM MM; fotofysik; molekylär dynamik; beräkningsprotokoll för förberedelser av proteiner;

    Abstract : Den ökande koldioxidhalten i atmosfären har lett till ett ökat intresse för användning av solljus, ett exempel är inom kemi. Att använda ljus i kemi kan leda till nya och intressanta kemiska reaktioner och kan tillämpas i användningsområden som exempelvis fotokatalys och fotovoltaik. READ MORE

  5. 19. Legumes as protein-based alternatives to meat: A case study of Färsodlarna and Stacky’s

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Hilda Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Legumes; Multi-Level Perspective; Plant-Based Products; Sustainable Development; Sustainable Food System; Sustainability Transition;

    Abstract : The urgent action needed to achieve the goals within the Paris Agreement and restrict the increase of global warming to 1,5 degrees calls for adaptation across the whole of society. One way to reduce anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions is to enable a transition towards a sustainable food system, from meat products to more plant-based products including the consumption of more legumes.

  6. 20. Knockout of transcription factor MYB28 by CRISPR/Cas9 for reducing glucosinolate content in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Author : Anusha Harshani Bogahawatta; [2023]
    Keywords : CRISPR Cas9; Glucosinolates; ; MYB28; protoplast; ; rapeseed; ; ribonucleoprotein; ; transcription factor;

    Abstract : Rapeseed cake is a protein-rich by-product from the rapeseed oil extraction process. It contains high levels of glucosinolates (GSLs), which possess anti-nutritional functions after being hydrolyzed. Moreover, the hydrolyzed products of GSLs produce an extremely bitter taste.
