  2. 1. Shedding light on glycosylation : Analysis of complex carbohydrates using an affinity biosensor

    Author : Mathias Liljeblad; Bengt Danielsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The main objective during the work described in this thesis has been to develop assays for stodies of complex carbohydrates in a clinical context. Complex carbohydrates, such as free or protein linked oligosaccharides, have been shown to have important biological functions. READ MORE

  4. 2. Signalling between plants and microorganisms

    Author : Ulrika Troedsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; symbiosis; Chitinase; rhizobium; mycorrhiza; plant; glucanase; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Plants and microbes can interact in several ways. Plants can be attacked by different types of pathogens like fungi, virus and bacteria, but can also form symbioses with fungi and bacteria. Certain common antimicrobial proteins are produced by the plants regardless of the type of microbial interaction with the plant. READ MORE

  5. 3. Experimental Studies on the Vasculature of Endogenous and Transplanted Islets of Langerhans

    Author : Göran Mattsson; Leif Jansson; Alberto Hayek; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; islets of Langerhans; endothelial cells; islet transplantation; vascular density; diabetes mellitus; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin;

    Abstract : The blood vessels of the pancreatic islets are of crucial importance for oxygen and metabolite supply as well as dispersal of secreted hormones. In addition to this, endothelial cells have an important role in the revascularization process after islet transplantation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Free oligosaccharides and glycosylation of bile salt-stimulated lipase in human milk

    Author : Eva Landberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Bile salt-stimulated lipase (BSSL) is a glycosylated protein present in milk at a concentration of 100-200 mg/L. It is an enzyme important for fat digestion in the newborn infant. The protein backbone contains one possible site for N-glyeosylation and several sites for 0-glyeosylation. READ MORE

  7. 5. Chemical Modification of Nanostructured Wood for Functional Biocomposites

    Author : Shennan Wang; Qi Zhou; Gustav Nyström; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood; nanostructured materials; nanocellulose; delignification; oxidation; crosslinking; amination; MOFs; transparent film; hydrogel; aerogel; biocomposites; mechanical properties; thermochromic materials; CO2 capture; protein immobilization.; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Recently emerged top-down processing concept has provided new insights into the chemical modification of wood at the nanoscale. Nanostructured wood with naturally aligned cellulose microfibrils, cell wall nanoporosity, and precisely tuned chemical composition has opened up numerous possibilities for advanced design of functional materials.
