  2. 1. Nitriles in Prebiotic Chemistry and Astrobiology

    Author : Hilda Sandström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; astrobiology; polymer chemistry; hydrogen cyanide; density functional theory; molecular dynamics; metadynamics; umbrella sampling; prebiotic chemistry;

    Abstract : Life appeared on Earth within a billion years of the planet’s formation. How? - no one knows. Theories regarding the origin of life involve reactions of molecules predicted to have existed on early Earth in what is called prebiotic chemistry. READ MORE

  4. 2. Conversion of xylan into value-added products

    Author : Reza Faryar; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; xylooligosaccharides; biosurfactant; prebiotic; xylan-based film; Lactobacillus brevis;

    Abstract : Today’s high demand on finding sustainable energy sources, replacing petroleum-based products and the needfor healthier food alternatives have forced us to search for natural recoverable resources and explore their manyhidden applications. One such resource is xylan, which has gained much attention as possible raw material forvarious exploitations. READ MORE
