  1. 11. Green Protein Hydrogels and Non-dry Aerogels in Water Purification

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Emanuel Nelsson Vedung; Alexander Singh; Julia Wadefjord; [2022]
    Keywords : Aerogel; Hydrogel; Whey Protein Isolate; Water purification; Adsorption; Sustainability;

    Abstract : Having access to clean water is not a certainty for every human being. Today, there are major problems with polluted water that not just affect us humans, but also the ecosystem around us. In recent years, research into making aerogels from protein nanofibrils (PNF) has increased. READ MORE

  3. 12. Polymer gel dosimetry - Using MRI-readout, simplified relatively non-toxic mixing procedure tested on FLASH

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Maria Blomstedt; [2022]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background: One of the polymer gel dosimeters available today is the N-isopropylamide (NIPAM) polymer gel dosimeter which has a less toxic monomer compared to other polymer gels and the advantage of being able to be manufactured under normal oxygen levels. Polymer gel dosimeters in general are advantageous independent dosimeters to use for verification of new radiation treatment techniques due to its favorable qualities such as very high resolution, 3D coverage, tissue equivalence and independence of energy and incident direction of the radiation beam.

  4. 13. Gelling properties of milk gels using rennet as a coagulant

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

    Author : Dragos Voicu; Elin Bengtsson; [2022]
    Keywords : gelation; rennet; milk; food technology; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As the consumption of dairy is a common staple in the Nordic and European diet and culture, better understanding of the dairy industry as a whole, and especially the cheese industry is needed to aim for a more sustainable production. This project aims to offer an extended approach on the rennet coagulation of milk, analysing the gelling properties of skim milk samples at different pH values (5. READ MORE

  5. 14. Protein content in Brewer’s spent grain and its characteristics : upcycling spent grain from food waste to protein source

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Moa Rönnhagen; [2022]
    Keywords : Barley; food waste; brewers’ spent grain; beer; protein; extraction; characterization; future food;

    Abstract : The United Nations have adopted sustainable development goals (SDGs). Within these SDGs, food waste management and waste valorization, an increase in value, is found. For these reasons, it was of interest to study Brewers’ spent grain, a residual product from beer production. READ MORE

  6. 15. Research on the viability of the use of rigid gels for the cleaning of water-gilded surfaces

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för kulturvård

    Author : Ana Vega Ramiro; [2021-10-01]
    Keywords : Water-gilding; Gels; Agar-Agar; Borax; SEM;

    Abstract : As the Getty Institute of conservation and other researchers said, studies are absent regarding cleaning gilded surfaces. These surfaces are extraordinarily complex to clean due to their water-sensitive nature. READ MORE
