  1. 21. Ethanol Production from Cellulosic Biomass by Encapsulated Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Author : Farid Talebnia; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; encapsulated cells; ethanol; s.cerevisiae; dilute-acid hydrolyzate; in situ detoxification; furfural; orange peels; experimental design; immobilization; limonene;

    Abstract : Unstable oil markets with rising environmental concerns have revived widespread interest in production of fuel ethanol from renewable materials. Cellulosic materials are abundant and prominent feedstocks for cheap ethanol production. However, due to recalcitrant structure of these materials, pretreatment is a prerequisite. READ MORE

  5. 25. Genetic predisposition and risk factors for neurodegenerative diseases with special emphasis on Parkinson's disease and solvent-induced chronic toxic encephalopathy

    Author : Ahmad Ahmadi; Margareta Warholm; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The inter-individual variability in biotransformation, may lead to differences in activation and detoxification of both endogenous and exogenous compounds. Polymorphism studies in such genes were applied for Parkinson's disease (PD) and Chronic toxic encephalopathy (CTE), two diseases influenced by both genetic and enviromnental factors. READ MORE
