  1. 1. Enzyme assays for lignin–carbohydrate bond hydrolysis

    Author : Hampus Sunner; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Enzyme kinetic param- eter estimation; Glucuronoyl esterase; Enzyme assays; Lignin-carbohydrate bonds; Synergistic enzyme assay;

    Abstract : To identify, produce, and use enzymes, analytical methods known as enzyme assays are employed. Enzyme assays are based on analysing the changes brought about on a substrate by an enzyme under defined conditions. Assays are often based on simplified reactions acting as substitutes for the reaction of interest. READ MORE

  2. 2. New Methods for Enzyme Hydrolysis, Analysis, and Characterization of Modified Cellulose

    Author : Claes Melander; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analytisk kemi; Analytical chemistry; Methyl Cellulose; Reducing End; Micro Immobilised Enzyme Reactor; Mass Spectrometry; Enzyme Hydrolysis; Modified Cellulose; Substituent Distribution;

    Abstract : Cellulose can be chemically modified to produce derivatives with specific properties. Knowledge of correlations between the modification reaction, substituent distribution, origin of cellulose and properties are importaint in order to design processess so as to produce derivatives with the desired properties.

  3. 3. Biophysical Characterization of Thiopurine S-Methyltransferase : A Key enzyme in the Effects of Thiopurine Drugs

    Author : Patricia Wennerstrand; Lars-Göran Mårtensson; Curt Peterson; Malin Lindqvist Appell; Mikael Widersten; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the treatment of leukemia and inflammatory bowel disease, thiopurines are commonly used drugs. Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) is one of the drug metabolizing enzymes responsible of counteracting the formation of TGNs that will be incorporated into the DNA and RNA synthesis and thus induce apoptosis.

  4. 4. Mesostructured particulate silica materials with tunable pore size : Synthesis, characterization and applications

    Author : Malin Helena Sörensen; Per Claesson; Viveka Alfredsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mesoporous materials; aersol-based process; emulsion-based process; biocatalysis; sustained release; 3D hexagonal; 2D hexagonal; powder; spherical particles; liquid crystalline phases; AFM-porosimetry; Pluronic; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Colloidal assemblies of surfactants and polymers in aqueous solutions have been used by human mankind for hundreds of years and they are of great importance in many of our technological processes, such as fabrication of soap and papermaking. Less than two decades ago the idea of using colloidal assemblies as templates of inorganic materials was borne. READ MORE
