    Abstract : Auxins are one of the oldest phytohormones known to us, as studies on its physiological effects date back to the end of the nineteenth century. The cardinal auxin in plants is IAA, and attempts have been made to elucidate its biosynthesis and activity for over 70 years. READ MORE

  3. 22. Inactivation of viruses in water by chlorination using bacteriophages as model organisms

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Charan Raju Kanna; [2016]
    Keywords : desinfection; chlorination; bacteriophages; viruses; free chlorine;

    Abstract : Climate change will lead to more extreme rain events in parts of Sweden resulting in sewage overflows and thus more contamination of surface water, leading to an increased risk of waterborne infections. Swedish and Norwegian surface waters are rich in humic substances with high organic carbon content that interferes with disinfection, the most important barrier to viruses in the water treatment plant.

  5. 24. Sköldkörtelstörande ämnen : bakomliggande mekanismer och effekter

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Linda Daly; [2016]
    Keywords : sköldkörtelstörningar; tyroidea; verkningsmekanismer; sköldkörtelstörande ämnen; effekter; thyroid disruptors; TDC; thyroidea; mechanism of action; effects;

    Abstract : En normalt fungerande sköldkörtelhormonproduktion är väldigt viktigt för alla djur då sköldkörtelhormonerna är involverade i många av kroppens mekanismer såsom reglering av metabolismen samt krävs för att nervsystem och skelett ska utvecklas på ett normalt sätt. Eftersom sköldkörtelhormonsystemet är så viktigt för vuxna individer och ännu viktigare för unga individer som fortfarande utvecklas är det av yttersta relevans att studera ämnen som kan interagera och påverka detta hormonsystem negativt.
