  1. 21. Temporal trends of 4-Hydroxychlorothalonil in maternal serum samples, 1997-2015

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning; Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

    Author : Elin Wällstedt; [2023]
    Keywords : Biomonitoring; human exposure effects; environmental exposure; fungicide; pregnancy; pregnant women; chlorothalonil; CHT; 4-hydroxy-chlorothalonil; 4-OH-CHT; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Agricultural fungicides are extensively used for infestation control, resulting in residues of these compounds in food. Human exposure to environmental contaminants might occur via different routes, such as inhalation, skin contact, or ingestion. Exposure to several pesticides has been associated with adverse human health outcomes. READ MORE

  3. 22. Metacaspase type II : Biochemical studies of the activation anddegradation process of calcium-independentmetacaspase type II from Arabidopsis thaliana

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nationellt resurscentrum för biologi och bioteknik

    Author : Anna Vikhagen; [2023]

    Abstract : Biogas production through anaerobic digestion is an important part towards the achievement of a bio-based and circular economy in Sweden. In fact, Swedish government proposed a strategy suggesting that biogas production should be increased from 2 TWh today to 7 TWh by 2030. READ MORE

  6. 25. Modelling Large Protein Complexes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Ho Yeung Chim; [2023]
    Keywords : Protein Modeling; Monte Carlo Tree Search; Protein Complex;

    Abstract : AlphaFold [Jumper et al., 2021, Evans et al., 2022] is a deep learning-based method that can accurately predict the structure of single- and multiple-chain proteins. However, its accuracy decreases with an increasing number of chains, and GPU memory limits the size of protein complexes that can be predicted. READ MORE
