  1. 1. Chemical modification of starch in order to get thermoplastic properties

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Emma Hallbert; Elsa Wadman; [2023]
    Keywords : thermoplastic starch; dialdehyde starch; schiff-base; imine chemistry; termoplastisk stärkelse; dialdehydstärkelse; schiffbas; iminkemi;

    Abstract : There are numerous advantages of replacing traditional non-biodegradable synthetic plastics with bio-based plastics. Starch is globally available, cheap, renewable, and biodegradable. However, starch has a poor product performance and is relatively difficult to process, as conventional melt processing techniques cannot be used. READ MORE

  3. 2. Biochemical characterization of resurrected ancestral ammonia lyases

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Albin Holmberg Larsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Ancestral sequence resurrection; Inborn errors of metabolism; Aromatic ammonia lyases; Enzyme kinetics; Thermostability;

    Abstract : This study set out to express, purify and characterize twelve ammonia lyase enzymes for potential application as a supplement to a treatment of an inborn error of metabolism disease. The DNA sequence for two wild-type ammonia lyases, three modified ammonia lyases and seven resurrected ancestral ammonia lyases had been synthesized and cloned in vectors. READ MORE

    Keywords : peste des petits ruminants; utrotning; vaccin; eradication; vaccine;

    Abstract : Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) är en akut virusorsakad sjukdom som drabbar små idisslare. Den kliniska bilden inkluderar erosioner i munhåla, nos- och ögonflöde, feber och anorexi som övergår i respiratoriska symptom och diarréer. I de flesta fall leder PPR till döden. READ MORE

  5. 4. Thermostability investigation of Fatty Acid Binding Protein from Cataglyphis fortis by fluorescence spectroscopy using genetically introduced tryptophan residues

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Elin Röjdeby; [2011]
    Keywords : FABP; Fatty acid binding protein; fluorescence; Cataglyphis fortis; thermostability; mutant;

    Abstract : The desert ant Cataglyphis fortis is one of the hyperthermophilic species of Cataglyphis. It lives in the Sahara desert and forages during the hottest hours of the day when it can get up to 70˚C in the sand. The body temperature of the ant during the foraging runs can reach a maximum of 55˚C. Since C. READ MORE
