  1. 1. Tracing Tempera through Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry Analysing samples from four icons from the Nationalmuseum collection

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för kulturvård

    Author : Nina Olivier; [2024-01-30]
    Keywords : Icons; tempera; emulsions; analysis methods; ToF-SIMS;

    Abstract : This thesis will analyze samples in form of cross-sections taken from four icons of the Nationalmuseum collection, two Russian, from the 18th and 19th centuries and two Greek, also from the 18th and 19th centuries, using the Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Technique. The objective is to detect, isolate and, if possible, identify the amino acids and the fatty acids in the protein and lipids used in the tempera, the ground, and the olifa using Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry.

Blood plasma and serum samples from mice subjected to two intervention studies on oats and fruits were analysed to determine SCFA concentrations. READ MORE

  5. 4. Analysis of fatty acids in fatty acid-based herbicides by gas chromatography

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Mohamad Abd Elwadood; [2023]
    Keywords : Analytical Chemistry; Fatty Acids; Gas Chromatography; Green Herbicides; Retention Index; Flame Ionization Detector; Mass Spectrometry; Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction.; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Fatty acids-based herbicides are considered to be a green alternative to synthesized weed control products. However, the environmentally sustainable effect of those herbicides needs more investigation to be confirmed. READ MORE

  6. 5. The potential use of black soldier fly larvae residue as a fertilizer

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Agricultural Biosystems and Techology

    Author : An-Marthe Ingelaere; [2023]
    Keywords : organic waste; fertilizer; black soldier fly; residue; physico-chemical characteristics; sub-Saharan Africa; socio-economic constraints;

    Abstract : In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the primary constraint of agriculture productivity has consistently been ascribed to soil fertility. A common approach to improve soil fertility is the use of fertilizers, both organic and inorganic. Though recently interest is increasing in the use of newer alternatives like biostimulants. READ MORE
