  1. 1. Beyond carbon-limitation : A re-evaluation of the ecological role of photorespiration and direct oxygen photoreduction in seagrasses

    Author : Pimchanok Buapet; Mats Björk; Ilana Berman-Frank; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbon limitation; Chlorophyll fluorescence; Electron transport rate; Irradiance; Mehler reaction; Non-photochemical quenching; Photorespiration; Photosynthetic activity; Plant Physiology; växtfysiologi;

    Abstract : Seagrasses living in shallow coastal waters are regularly subjected to changes in environmental conditions including the two essential factors for photosynthesis: dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and irradiance. This thesis focuses on the photosynthetic responses of seagrasses to carbon limitation induced by community metabolism and/or high light intensities. READ MORE

  2. 2. Innovative Oxygen Carriers for Chemical-looping Combustion

    Author : Dazheng Jing; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical-looping with oxygen uncoupling; Combined manganese oxides; Chemical-looping combustion; CuO-based oxygen carrier; Oxygen carrier;

    Abstract : Chemical-looping combustion (CLC) and chemical-looping with oxygen uncoupling (CLOU) are combustion technologies where carbon dioxide is inherently obtained in pure form without any gas separation step. In the processes, fuel is introduced to the fuel reactor and combustion air is introduced to the air reactor. READ MORE

  3. 3. Analysis and Control of Continuous Microaerobic Ethanol Production by Yeast

    Author : Carl Johan Franzén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nitrogen limitation; ethanol; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; glycerol; metabolic flux analysis; oxygen limitation; stoichiometric model; yeast physiology; RQ control;

    Abstract : Glucose fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and xylose fermentation by Candida utilis and Pichia stipitis, were investigated under microaerobic conditions. A dynamic experimental method named oxygen programmed fermentation (OPF), and a method for microaerobic RQ control in continuous culture have been developed. READ MORE

  4. 4. Diabetes-induced Alterations in Renal Microcirculation and Metabolism

    Author : Fredrik Palm; Per Liss; Peter Hansell; Per-Ola Carlsson; Gerald DiBona; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physiology; diabetes mellitus; kidney; nephropathy; oxygen tension; haemodynamic; nitric oxide; oxygen consumption; radical oxygen species; polyol pathway; Fysiologi; Physiology; Fysiologi;

    Abstract : Diabetes-induced renal complications, i.e. diabetes nephropathy, are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The exact mechanism mediating the negative influence of hyperglycaemia on renal function is unclear, although several hypotheses have been postulated. READ MORE
