1. 1. Is sugar as sweet to the palate asseeds are appetizing to the belly? : Taste responsiveness to seven sweet-tastingsubstances in white-faced sakis (Pithecia pithecia)

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

   Author : Mikel Redin Hurtado; [2023]
   Keywords : Food-associated carbohydrates; relative sweetness; seed predation; steviol glycosides; taste preference thresholds; taste responsiveness; white-faced sakis;

   Abstract : Differences in taste perception between species are thought to reflect evolutionaryadaptations to dietary specializations such as seed predation. By employing a two-bottlepreference test, the purpose of the current study was to evaluate the taste responsiveness forfive food-associated carbohydrates and two steviol glycosides in four adult white-faced sakis(Pithecia pithecia).

3. 2. Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

   Author : Ilia Iarkov; [2023]
   Keywords : Low-temperature district heating; Modelica; BTES; LCA; LCC; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. READ MORE

4. 3. Aluminium water extract levels from liquid packaging board : A comparative trial study between alum and polyaluminium chloride added as flocculants on BM7, Stora Enso Skoghall Mill

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för kemiteknik

   Author : Hanna Cassel; [2022]
   Keywords : aluminium; alum; polyaluminium chloride; PAC; liquid packaging board; BfR; water extract; aluminium; alun; polyaluminiumklorid; PAC; vätskekartong; BfR; vattenextrakt;

   Abstract : The aluminium content of water extracts is an important aspect for the food safety of paper board, as the content indicates the ability of the paper board material to transfer aluminium to the packaged food product. Aluminium intake in humans and its health effects have been discussed for many years as some research has seen potential links between, among other things, high aluminium levels in the brain and the development of hereditary Alzheimer's.

5. 4. Identification of mRNA expressions as biomarkers of environmental pollutants in the great pond snail (Lymnaea stagnalis)

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Johanna Eriksson; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The great pond snail, Lymnaea stagnalis is considered a sensitive species to environmentalpollution and is used in ecotoxicology testing. The snail is naturally found in the environment inthe Holarctic realm in Europe, northern America and Asia but also in some parts of Australia. READ MORE

6. 5. Polymer gel dosimetry - Using MRI-readout, simplified relatively non-toxic mixing procedure tested on FLASH

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

   Author : Maria Blomstedt; [2022]
   Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Background: One of the polymer gel dosimeters available today is the N-isopropylamide (NIPAM) polymer gel dosimeter which has a less toxic monomer compared to other polymer gels and the advantage of being able to be manufactured under normal oxygen levels. Polymer gel dosimeters in general are advantageous independent dosimeters to use for verification of new radiation treatment techniques due to its favorable qualities such as very high resolution, 3D coverage, tissue equivalence and independence of energy and incident direction of the radiation beam.
