    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Hanna Norrman; [2020]
    Keywords : wheat starch; physical modifications; chemical modifications; amylose; amylopectin; starch granules;

    Abstract : This is a study written as a part of the Agtech 2030-project, “Increased value at the starch-and cereal protein market”, which is a collaboration between Lantmännen and the University of Linköping within the framework of the innovation platform Agtech 2030, hosted by Linköping university. This conceptual and literary based study concerns modification of wheat starch, one of many parts of the project from Agtech 2030. READ MORE

  3. 17. Transparent paper: Evaluation of chemical modification routes to achieve self-fibrillating fibres

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

    Author : Paulina Sandberg Birgersson; [2020]
    Keywords : Transparent paper; nanopaper; nanocellulose; chemical modification of cellulose; cellulose nanofibrils CNF ; Transparent papper; nanopaper; nanocellulosa; kemisk modifiering av cellulosa; cellulosa nanofibriller CNF ; nanopapper;

    Abstract : Transparenta papper tillverkade av cellulosa nanofibriller (CNF), visar stor potential att kunna ersätta petroleumbaserade plaster inom många användningsområden, till exempel för mat- och varuförpackningar. CNF, även känt som nanocellulosa, kombinerar viktiga cellulosaegenskaper, med unika egenskaper hos nanomaterial. READ MORE

  4. 18. Enzymatic Modification of the Interaction Between Lignin and Recycled Cellulose Fibers

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Manfred Klug; [2019]
    Keywords : Lignin; Pulp and Paper; Recycling; Biotechnology; Enzyme technology; Laccases; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The pulp and paper industry have been a growing market during the last decades. Due to higher environmental concerns among people, the recycling of papers has become an even more important part of the industry.

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Author : Moa Lindell; [2019]
    Keywords : epigenetik; epigenetisk nedärvning; epigenetiska mekanismer;

    Abstract : Epigenetik är den del av genetiken som behandlar förändringar i genuttryck som är oberoende av förändringar i DNA-sekvensen. Det som styr vilka gener som uttrycks och får effekt på fenotyp har studerats av forskare sedan 70-80-talet. READ MORE

  6. 20. Dissection of domain function for tandem AP2 plant transcription factors

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