  1. 1. The effect of high pressure homogenization on emulsions containing oat β-glucan : a study of viscosity, stability and molecular weight

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

    Author : Dominika Kiesling; [2023]
    Keywords : oat; β-glucan; high pressure homogenization; emulsion; stability; food technology; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : This master thesis project has been conducted in cooperation with Lantmännen AB who are producers of PromOat® - an oat β-glucan powder concentrate. The main objective of this thesis was to investigate the properties of emulsions containing PromOat® oat β-glucan, focusing on the viscosity, stability, and molecular weight before and after high pressure homogenization (HPH) at pressures of 100, 150 and 200 bars.

  4. 3. Biocatalysis in Pickering emulsions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Author : Christine Vera Isabel Schmidt; [2023]
    Keywords : Enzymes; Pickering emulsion; Amine Transaminases; Green Chemistry; Stereoselectivity; Biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Employing enzymes as catalysts in the production of chiral amines that are both used as building blocks and active pharmaceutical ingredients might be promising due to milder reaction conditions compared to non-biological catalysts, exclusion of heavy metals, high selectivity towards substrates and precision in chirality of the products. Transaminases are attractive for the use in this process. READ MORE

  5. 4. Slaktutbyte och köttutbyte i nöt- och lammslaktkroppar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Sandra Blomberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Slaktutbyte; köttutbyte; kött; nötkreatur; lamm;

    Abstract : Slaktutbyte och köttutbyte speglar det ekonomiska värdet i djur som går till slakt. Slaktutbyte är skillnaden mellan djurets levande vikt innan slakt och slaktkroppens vikt medan köttutbyte är skillnaden mellan slaktkroppens vikt och vikten av köttet på slaktkroppen. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluation of electrospun lignin/polyvinyl alcohol/cellulose nanofiber mats

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik
