1. 6. Substrate water binding to the oxygen-evolving complex in photosystem II

   Författare :Håkan Nilsson; Johannes Messinger; Wolfgang Schröder; Robert L. Burnap; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Photosynthesis; Photosystem II; water oxidation; oxygen evolution; substrate water exchange; membrane-inlet mass spectrometry;

   Sammanfattning : Oxygenic photosynthesis in plants, algae and cyanobacteria converts sunlight into chemical energy. In this process electrons are transferred from water molecules to CO2 leading to the assembly of carbohydrates, the building blocks of life. LÄS MER

3. 7. Investigations on the Oxidation of Iron-chromium and Iron-vanadium Molten Alloys

   Författare :Haijuan Wang; Seshadri Seetharaman; Ashok Lahiri; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Oxidation; High-alloy steelmaking; Retention; CO2-O2; Fe-Cr melt; Fe-Cr-C melt; Fe-V melt; Vanadium containing slags; Kinetics; Thermodynamics properties.; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : With the progress of high alloy steelmaking processes, it is essential to minimize the loss of valuable metals, like chromium and vanadium during the decarburization process, from both economic as well as environmental view points. One unique technique to realize this aim, used in the present work, is the decarburization of high alloy steel grades using oxygen with CO2 in order to reduce the partial pressure of oxygen. LÄS MER

4. 8. Bacterial Resistance to Antimicrobial Peptides : Rates, Mechanisms and Fitness Effects

   Författare :Maria Pränting; Dan Andersson; Ian Chopra; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :antimicrobial peptides; antibiotic resistance; fitness cost; bacterial evolution; small colony variants; cyclotides; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

   Sammanfattning : The rapid emergence of bacterial resistance to antibiotics has necessitated the development of alternative treatment strategies. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are important immune system components that kill microbes rapidly and have broad activity-spectra, making them promising leads for new pharmaceuticals. LÄS MER

5. 9. Li2O2 quantification in non-aqueous Li-O2 batteries with binder-free cathodes

   Författare :Chenjuan Liu; Torbjörn Gustafsson; Martin Sahlberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The non-aqueous Li-air (Li-O2) battery has been emerging as one of the most promising high-energy storage systems to meet the requirements for electric vehicle applications due to its high theoretical energy density. In order to uncover the underlying electrochemistry and enable an informed battery design, it is crucial to gain a detailed understanding of the cell´s chemical components as well as its behavior during cycling.
