1. Asymmetrical Flow Field-Flow Fractionation in the Application to Biological Macromolecules
Abstract : Asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AsFlFFF) is especially useful in the application to biological macromolecules due to the absence of a stationary phase in the separation channel. As a result no upper exclusion limit occurs and low shear forces affect the sample components. READ MORE

2. Freeze-Dried Wheat Gluten-Based Foams
Abstract : This thesis presents wheat gluten foams as an alternative to the available commercialfoams. Polymeric foams, like all plastics, are mostly made from petroleum, and this isaffecting the environment negatively with the emission of greenhouse gases and generation oflandfills. READ MORE

3. Exploring the Wood Adhesive Performance of Wheat Gluten
Abstract : The increasing environmental concern has reawakened an interest in materials based on renewable resources as replacement for petroleum-based materials. The main objective of this thesis was to explore plant proteins, more specifically wheat gluten, as a binder in wood adhesives intended for typical solid wood applications such as furniture and flooring.

4. Tailoring the structure-function relationship in wheat gluten : processing, genotype and environment effects in bio-based materials
Abstract : Gluten proteins ranging in size from 30 000 to several million daltons form one of the largest and most complex polymers in nature. The giant molecular nature and intricate network of the over 100 types of proteins in gluten make structural studies rather challenging. READ MORE

5. Novel uses of bio-polymers in composites : from chemistry to processing of materials and food
Abstract : Plant bio-polymers obtained as industrial side-streams (wheat gluten and potato proteins) and specifically designed potato starch and hemp fibres were used to produce composite materials. Fractionated pea protein and pea dietary fibres were used to make pasta-like sheets for production of healthy food. READ MORE
