11. Enamel of primary teeth - morphological and chemical aspects
Abstract : Enamel is one of the most important structures of the tooth, both from a functional and esthetic point of view. Primary enamel carries registered information regarding metabolic and physiological events that occurred during the period around birth and the first year of life. READ MORE

12. Uptake and toxicity of brominated flame retardants and pesticides : Studies on littoral organisms and model communities
Abstract : In this thesis, brackish and freshwater littoral model communities (microcosms) of varying size and complexity were used to study the effects of brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and pesticides. The brackish water microcosms consisted of natural water, sediment and associated organisms, while the larger freshwater microcosms also contained submersed macrophytes (Elodea canadensis). READ MORE

13. Chemical Modification of Cellulose Fibres and Fibrils for Design of New Materials
Abstract : Due to the growing interest in biobased materials in today’s society, where the need for a cyclic economy is obvious, there has been a huge increase in the interest for using cellulose due to its excellent mechanical and chemical properties. However, the properties of cellulose have to be modified and improved in order to satisfy advanced material applications where the cellulose properties can be tuned to fit the properties of other components in composite mixtures.

14. Structural Transitions in Helical Peptides : The Influence of Water – Implications for Molecular Recognition and Protein Folding
Abstract : Fluctuations in protein structure are vital to function. This contrasts the dominating structure-function paradigm, which connects the well-defined three-dimensional protein structure to its function. However, catalysis is observed in disordered enzymes, which lack a defined structure. READ MORE

15. Glutaredoxins : structure, function and mechanism
Abstract : Thioredoxin (Trx) and glutaredoxin (Grx) are small (9-12 kDa) intracellular disulfide reducing enzymes. They were originally described as hydrogen donors for ribonucleotide reductase (RR), the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides. READ MORE
