  1. 1. Decellularized ECM derived collagen bioinks

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för cell- och molekylärbiologi

    Author : Matilda Carlson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : 3D bioprinting allows for the manufacturing of tissue-like structures that could be used for culturing and studying cells in a microenvironment representative of the cell’s natural environment. In recent years, hydrogel bioinks from different biomaterials have been in development and utilized in tissue engineering applications. READ MORE

  2. 2. A comparative study of innovation rennets from Swedish ruminants: calves, kids, and lambs

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Dena Marie Bengtsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ruminant milk; Swedish bovine rennet; Swedish kid rennet; Swedish lamb rennet; Artisanal cheese production; Rheological properties; Curd yield; Gel firmness; Innovation; Milk coagulation time;

    Abstract : The study aimed to examine Swedish innovation rennets (lamb and kid) and bovine rennets (pepsin and chymosin) in combination with species-specific milk from goat, sheep, and cow. This was accomplished by evaluating the gross composition, casein and whey protein content, casein number of the milk types, as well as rheological properties, such as curd yield, coagulation time, and gel firmness.

    Keywords : Milk; cheese; Milk coagulating enzymes; chymosin; pepsin; rennet; animal origin milk coagulant; microbial milk coagulant; recombinant chymosin; plant-based milk coagulant;

    Abstract : Cheesemaking origins from “The fertile crescent”, nowadays southern Turkey, some 8000 years ago. Curd was found in young, still suckling, ruminants’ stomachs after slaughter. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigation of the native starch-ethyl cellulose film coating for colon targeting

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

    Author : Mohamed Esmael; Ali Majid; [2016]
    Keywords : starch; colon delivery; pharmaceutical technology; läkemedelsteknologi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to optimize a function starch-ethyl cellulose film for targeting the therapeutically active substance to the colon in the disease state for patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases. This study includes: • The preparation of the polymeric films and the investigation of the characterization (for example mechanical properties, water uptake, dry mass loss, and microscopy analysis) for these prepared film coatings.
