1. Biomonitoring of epichlorohydrin and some related compounds
Sammanfattning : This thesis considers epichlorohydrin (ECH), an important industrial chemical, that has been shown to be a carcinogen in experimental animals. The aim of this work is to improve the scientific basis for risk estimation of ECH and to suggest a reliable biomonitoring method for exposure. LÄS MER
2. Quantitative analysis of DNA adducts formed by some epoxides of industrial importance
Sammanfattning : The work presented herein has focused on DNA adduct formation by three industrial epoxides, allyl glycidyl ether, propylene oxide and epichlorohydrin. Epoxides, owing to the strained oxirane ring are chemically reactive and can alkylate various sites in DNA. LÄS MER
3. Engineering and Functionalization of Hemicellulose Hydrogels
Sammanfattning : Hemicellulose is the second most abundant component in wood and is an important renewable resource that is used in films, paper composites and biofuels. Hemicelluloses have several advantages, including their abundance, degradability and renewability. LÄS MER
4. Protein-Based Adhesives for Particleboards
Sammanfattning : The main objective of this study was to elucidate the possibilities to use wheat gluten (WG) as a binder for particleboards, as well as soy protein isolate (SPI). The focus was on the effect of the adhesive formulation and the processing conditions, while the press parameters were kept constant. LÄS MER
5. Synthesis of Novel Homoserine Analogues - Towards t he Development of Substrate-based Peptide Inhibitors of cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase
Sammanfattning : Protein kinases are enzymes that via phosphorylation of proteins/peptides regulate most aspects of cell functions and physiology. The enzymes transfer a -phosphoryl group from ATP to hydroxyl groups of Ser, Thr and Tyr residues in their substrates. LÄS MER
