  2. 1. Phenolic content in cereals and legumes. Influence of processing and effect on in vitro availability

    Author : Elifatio E Towo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tannins; galloyls; cereals; polyphenol oxidase; catechols; phytase; polyphenols; phytate; iron binding phenols; legumes; in vitro iron availability;

    Abstract : Iron deficiency anaemia is highly prevalent in Tanzania, and one of the major causes is the low bioavailability of iron in the plant food staple diet. Cereals and legumes contain large amounts of compounds that inhibit iron absorption, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 2. In Vitro Availability of Iron in High-Tannin Sorghum. Effect of Enzymatic Oxidation of Phenolic Compounds

    Author : Erika Matuschek; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bioavailability; catechol groups; polyphenols; polyphenol oxidase; iron; in vitro availability; tyrosinase; fruit extracts; sorghum; oxidation; tannins; galloyl groups;

    Abstract : Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional disorder in the world. In low income countries, it is to a large extent caused by low bioavailability of iron in the vegetable diet. Vegetable diets contain large amounts of compounds that inhibit iron absorption, e.g. READ MORE

  5. 3. Enzyme Printed Fabrics : Bio‐functionalisation of Synthetic Textiles by Digital Inkjet Printing

    Author : Tuser Biswas; Vincent Nierstrasz; Junchun Yu; Tzanko Tzanov; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Digital printing; inkjet; enzyme; printhead; rheology; immobilisation; piezoelectric; drop-on-demand; resource-efficient textiles; biological ink; lysozyme; tyrosinase; polyphenol oxidase; polyethylene terephthalate; polyester; polyamide-6; 6; nylon; surface modification; plasma; antimicrobial; antibacterial; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the possibilities of printing enzymes using resource-efficient technologies to promote the binding of other proteins and biomaterials on synthetic textiles. This strategy can be used to develop advanced textiles for applications, for example, in antimicrobial, drug delivery and biosensing. READ MORE

  6. 4. Molecular population genetics of inducible defense genes in Populus tremula

    Author : Carolina Bernhardsson; Stefan Jansson; Santiago González-Martinez; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Populus; herbivore defense; adaptation; population genetics; population structure; association mapping; complex traits; evolutionär genetik; evolutionary genetics;

    Abstract : Plant-herbivore interactions are among the most common of ecological interactions. It is therefore not surprising that plants have evolved multiple mechanisms to defend themselves, using both constitutive chemical and physical barriers and by induced responses which are only expressed after herbivory has occurred.
