1. 36. The effectivity of vacuum impregnation with glycerol and secondary metabolites on electroporated arugula leaves to improve freezing stability.

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

   Author : Oscar de Kuijer; [2021]
   Keywords : Pulsed electric field PEF; Arugula; Electroporation; Secondary metabolites; Glycerol; Food engineering; Livsmedelsteknik; Technology and Engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

   Abstract : Freeze damage is a common issue in many food items. The cellular dehydration caused by freezing can be prevented through addition of a cryoprotectant. Research has shown that it is possible to improve the freezing tolerance of plant materials by addition of cryoprotectants, which forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules. READ MORE

3. 37. The visibility of double neutron star binaries to LISA

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Anatole Storck; [2021]
   Keywords : gravitational waves; LISA; neutron stars; orbital simulations; Runge-Kutta method; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Double neutron star binaries (DNSBs) in the mHz gravitational wave (GW) regime are an important group of objects which the GW detector LISA will be able to observe. The detection and parametrization of these objects will help develop our current understanding of neutron star formation and evolution. READ MORE

4. 38. Effects of Vacuum Impregnation with Various Substances in Combination with Pulsed Electric Field to Improve the Freezing Tolerance of Arugula Leaves

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

   Abstract : As of 2020 an estimated number of 821 million people across the world are undernourished and that figure is expected to grow by 2 billion before the end of 2050 (United Nations Sustainable Development 2020). Despite this, every year over 1/3 of food produced globally is disposed of without consumption (Global Panel on Agriculture and Food Systems for Nutrition 2018), and the actual number might be much higher.

5. 39. Formulation development of a recombinant VAR2-antiCD3 protein for cancer immunotherapy

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

   Author : Maja Warlin; Frida Hallberg; [2021]
   Keywords : immunotherapy; cancer; pharmaceuticals; proteins; analytical techniques; molecular biotechnology; formulation; life science; engineering; pharmaceutical technology; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The use of immunotherapy for treating cancer has received a lot of attention in the recent years. The therapy is based on activating or deactivating the patient’s own immune system to help fight the disease. One way of doing this, is using bispecific molecules that can target both cancer cells and T-cells simultaneously. READ MORE

6. 40. Improving SARS-CoV-2 analyses from wastewater

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Israa Yahia Al Hag Ibrahim Dafalla; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) analyzes wastewater for the presence of biological and chemical substances to make public health conclusions. COVID-19 disease is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that infected individuals shed also in their feces, making WBE an alternative way to track SARS-CoV-2 in populations.
