  1. 1. Oviposition cues as a tool for developing a new malaria control strategy

    Author : Lynda Eneh; Anna-Karin Borg-Karlson; Willem Takken; KTH; []
    Keywords : Anopheles gambiae; Malaria; Oviposition; Volatile compounds; GC-MS; DGGE; Sorption; Fungi; Bacteria; Physicochemical parameters; Nut grass; Bermuda grass; Anopheles gambiae; Malaria; Äggläggning; Flyktiga ämnen; GC-MS; DGGE; Sorptionen; Svampar; Bakterier; Gräs; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Anopheles gambiae sensu lato mosquitoes are among the dominant malaria vectors in sub-Saharan Africa. However, not much is known about the oviposition behaviour of these species necessary for the development of malaria vector control strategies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Sample preparation and analysis of metabolites from plants in the families of Cyperaceae, Poaceae and Apiaceae

    Author : Linus Svenberg; Åsa Emmer; Jenny Lindh; Margareta Sandahl; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gas chromatography; Mass spectrometry; Ultrasound assisted extraction; Solid-phase microextraction; Volatile compounds; Allelopathy; Bioassay; Gaskromatografi; Masspektrometri; Ultraljudsassisterad extraktion; fastfas-mikroextraktion; Flyktiga ämnen; Allelopati; Bioanalys; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : An important aspect of understanding how plants effect their environmentis the study of volatile compounds and how these influence interactions between plants and other living organisms. The study of these secondary metabolites from plants can be used in practical applications, such as behaviour control of insects, and is an important part in the search for novel compounds that can be used to influence the behaviour of disease spreading vectors.

  3. 3. Chlorine Transport in a Small Catchment

    Author : Teresia Svensson; Gunilla Öberg; Katarina Abrahamsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; catchment; chloride; chlorine; chloroform; organic chlorine; runoff water; soil; VOCls; avrinningsområde; avrinningsvatten; flyktiga klorerade föreningar klor; klorid; kloroform; organiskt klor; mark; Water in nature and society; Vatten i natur och samhälle;

    Abstract : De senaste decenniernas forskning har påvisat att en omfattande bildning och nedbrytning av klororganiska föreningar sker i mark. Bildning av sådana föreningar sker genom att klorid binds in i organiskt material. READ MORE

  4. 4. Microwave heating effects on degradation and migration of additives from polypropylene packaging

    Author : Jonas Alin; Minna Hakkarainen; Jiebing Li; Anna Finne Wistrand; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : The effect of different food types, polymer qualities and microwaves on the overall and specific migration during microwave heating of plastic packaging was investigated to better understand the packaging-food interactions and the effect of microwaves on food packaging. This work focuses on the migration of chemical compounds to food simulants from commercially available polypropylene packages. READ MORE

  5. 5. Is genetic diversity more important for terpene emissions than latitudinal adaptation? : Using genetically identical trees to better understand emission fluctuations across a European gradient

    Author : Ylva van Meeningen; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; BVOC; English oak; European beech; Norway spruce; genetic diversity; European gradient;

    Abstract : Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are trace gases other than CO2 and CH4 produced and emitted by the vegetation. The group consists of thousands of compounds in various shapes and sizes and with short atmospheric lifetimes. Some of the most common BVOC groups are called isoprene, monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes. READ MORE
