  2. 1. Bioelectrochemical Applications of Reactions Catalyzed by Immobilized Enzymes

    Author : Xiao-Jing Tang; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Acetate Kinase.; NAD NADH recycling; Enzyme Electrodes; Enzyme reactors; Enzyme Immobilization; Electrochemical detection; Flow Injection Analysis; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : The sensitivity of biosensors can be increased substantially by incorporation in a substrate recycling scheme. Based on the amplification of NAD+/NADH by the recycling reaction catalyzed by glycerol dehydrogenase (GDH) and diaphorase, NAD+/NADH can be determined amperometrically with around 1000 times higher sensitivity than for the substrate sensing mode.

  4. 2. New Methods for Enzyme Hydrolysis, Analysis, and Characterization of Modified Cellulose

    Author : Claes Melander; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analytisk kemi; Analytical chemistry; Methyl Cellulose; Reducing End; Micro Immobilised Enzyme Reactor; Mass Spectrometry; Enzyme Hydrolysis; Modified Cellulose; Substituent Distribution;

    Abstract : Cellulose can be chemically modified to produce derivatives with specific properties. Knowledge of correlations between the modification reaction, substituent distribution, origin of cellulose and properties are importaint in order to design processess so as to produce derivatives with the desired properties.

  5. 3. Engineering of thermometric biosensors and characterisation of redox enzymes for improved performance of biosensors/biofuel cells

    Author : Maria Yakovleva; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Flow injection analysis; thermometric calorimetric biosensor; enzyme thermistor; immobilised enzyme reactor; amperometric biosensor; enzymatic biofuel cell; bioanode; pyranose dehydrogenase; cellobiose dehydrogenase; direct electron transfer; mediated electron transfer; matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization; glycosite mapping;

    Abstract : The present work is mainly focused on the development of enzyme-based bioanalytical devices, which can further be applied as analytical tools for industrial, medical and environmental applications. The first part of the work deals with the practical applications of thermometric biosensors for determination of various sugars (fructose and lactose) in a real samples. READ MORE

  6. 4. Porous Silicon -an enzyme coupling matrix for micromachined reactors

    Author : Johan Drott; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Instrumentation technology; glucose; biosensor; immobilised enzyme; porous silicon; microreactor; Mät- och instrumenteringsteknik;

    Abstract : The development of a miniaturised silicon wafer integrated enzyme reactor is described. The reactor was micromachined by anisotropic wet etching of (110) silicon. The enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx) was coupled to the reactor surface with standard methods of immobilising enzyme to silica. READ MORE

  7. 5. Porous Silicon Microbioreactors - Applications and Technology

    Author : Martin Bengtsson; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elektroteknik; Electrical engineering; immobilised cells; enzyme reactor; micro fluidics; Microreactor; porous silicon;

    Abstract : Microfluidic systems have become one of the most interesting fields in the research of chemical analysis. Miniaturized systems exhibit numerous practical advantages when compared with traditional batch-scale synthesis such as lower sample volumes, increased control of the reactions and higher sample throughput.
