  2. 6. Cold-induced nonshivering thermogenesis : tissue origin, activation, recruitment

    Author : Valeria Golozoubova; Martin Brand; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; zoofysiologi; Zoological physiology;

    Abstract : Two types of heat production, shivering and nonshivering thermogenesis, are activated in mammals in the cold. In small mammals, nonshivering thermogenesis becomes the main source of heat upon long-term cold exposure. READ MORE

  4. 7. Physiological and biochemical aspects of vegetable processing. A case study on carrots

    Author : Federico Gómez Galindo; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; mild blanching; antifreeze proteins; cell wall; cold acclimation; carrots; metabolism;

    Abstract : The aim of the present study was to enhance our understanding of vegetables as living organisms, interacting dynamically with the environment, and to explore the possible influence of metabolic changes on subsequent processing operations. Growing conditions, harvesting and handling in the packing house and storage conditions are key events leading to a defined “physiological status” of the vegetable that is going to be consumed as a fresh product or a processed product.

  5. 8. Proteomics and metabolomics in biological and medical applications

    Author : Liudmila Shiryaeva; Wolfgang P. Schröder; Pernilla Wikström; Peter Roepstroff; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 2D-DIGE; biomarkers; cold-acclimation; conifer; freezing tolerance; GC-MS; metabolomics; multiple hypothesis test; multivariate analysis; OPLS-DA; Picea obovata; plasma; prostate cancer; proteomics; ProteoMiner; Siberian spruce;

    Abstract : Biological processes in living organisms consist of a vast number of different molecular networks and interactions, which are complex and often hidden from our understanding. This work is focused on recovery of such details for two quite distant examples: acclimation to extreme freezing tolerance in Siberian spruce (Picea obovata) and detection of proteins associated with prostate cancer.

  6. 9. Ecophysiological responses of Baltic and Atlantic Fucus vesiculosus to environmental factors

    Author : Charlotta A Nygård; Nils Ekelund; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; acclimation; Atlantic; Baltic Sea; Bothnian Sea; Cd; Fucus vesiculosus; growth; high PAR; Pb; photosynthesis; salinity; stress; UV-B; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : The Baltic Sea is a species-poor ecosystem where marine species coexist with freshwater species. The Baltic Sea offers low salinity, low content of inorganic carbon, long cold winters and no tides. READ MORE
