38. Lactate as a signaling molecule : A potential role in controlling exercise induced adaptations in human skeletal muscle
University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsaAbstract : Introduction The lactate molecule has a key role in human energy metabolism, particularly in skeletal muscle: acting as a buffer within the muscle cell enabling glycolysis to continue during high energy demand, as well as acting as an energy shuttle between cells. The lactate molecule has also lately been shown to act as a signaling molecule in non-human models acting as a signaling molecule regulating the transcriptional process, potentially controlling the expression of several important metabolic proteins.

39. 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)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
