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

   Author : Johanna Forsvall; [2021]
   Keywords : Kombucha; Kombucha culture; Fermentation; Food engineering; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The fermented tea beverage kombucha is a traditional drink that has been consumed for thousands of years in Asia. Over the past decades, it has gained greatly in popularity amongst consumers and researchers also in the rest of the world. READ MORE

3. 2. Modeling transport phenomena with COMSOL Multiphysics - Adsorptive membrane fouling in lignocellulosic biorefineries and lessons learned from it

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Linnéa Petersson; [2020]
   Keywords : QCM-D; Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring; Hemicellulose; GGM; Galactoglucomannans; Adsorption; Membrane fouling; COMSOL; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The separation of hemicelluloses, like glactoglucomannans, from lignocellulosic process streams is an important step in building profitable lignocellulosic biorefineries. The most common method for the separation is membrane filtration, however, it has the draw-back of being sensitive to membrane fouling. READ MORE

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk teknik

   Author : Hao Li; [2016]
   Keywords : multi-level; model; simulation; glucose uptake; diabetes;

   Abstract : Diabetes is a world-wide health problem with 415 millions of people suffering from the disease. Most diabetics are suffering from Type 2 Diabetes, which is preceded by insulin resistance in glucose utilizing tissues, such as adipose, liver, and muscle tissues. READ MORE

5. 4. Modeling of beta-cell Metabolic Activity and Islet Function : a Systems Approach to Type II Diabetes

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

   Author : Fotios Christakopoulos; [2016]
   Keywords : cytoskeleton remodelling; particle tracking microrheology; IAPP; type 2 diabetes;

   Abstract : Diabetes has gained growing attendance as one of the key non communicable diseases (NCD) with the World Health Organization identifying it as the focus of the World Health Day 2016.

6. 5. Towards a function for an Arabidopsis protein involved in sucrose dynamics

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

   Author : Jonas Skytte af Sätra; [2013]
   Keywords : Sucrose; MAPK; signalling; soluble heteroglycans;

   Abstract : System based models of plants rely on descriptions and assigned functions of genes, and currently 50% of the genes in Arabidopsis thaliana has either no assigned function or a function based on homology only. Mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPK's) are key players in cell signalling and are conserved among eukaryotes, though their targets are highly diverse. READ MORE
