  2. 2. Sugar consumption and cardiometabolic risk. With a focus on the urinary sucrose and fructose biomarkers

    Författare :Stina Ramne; Nutritionsepidemiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Added sugar; Sugar-sweetened beverages; Cardiometabolic risk; Type 2 diabetes; Cardiovascular disease; Urinary sugar biomarker; Sucrose and fructose excretion; Gut microbiota; Plasma proteome;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: In contrast to the intake of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), the evidence linking added sugar intake to the risk of cardiometabolic disease (primarily referring to cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes (T2D)) is contradictory. Aim: The aim of this thesis is to elucidate the role of added sugar intake in the risk for cardiometabolic diseases. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Application of Molecular Markers in Sugar Beet Breeding

    Författare :Annika Hjerdin Panagopoulos; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtbiokemi; Plant biochemistry; breeding; marker application; molecular markers; sugar beet;

    Sammanfattning : Around 1750 a German chemist discovered it to be possible to extract sugar crystals from beet juice. Since then, breeding and improved agricultural practices have increased the concentration of sucrose per root from around 4% to around 18%. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Aroma Partition and Release from Soft Drinks, Jam, and Jellied Sweets

    Författare :Annika Hansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas chromatography; aroma; gel; model mouth; partition coefficient; release; citric acid; pectin; in-nose; sugar; proton-transfer reaction mass spectrometry; soft drink;

    Sammanfattning : The research described in the present thesis was focused on the influence of food ingredients and structures on the partition and release of aroma compounds from model systems such as soft drinks, jam, and jellied sweets. The effects on aroma release were studied during both static and dynamic conditions, the latter by both model mouth and in-nose measurements. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Functional properties of galectin-3. Beyond the sugar binding

    Författare :Adriana Lepur; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; galectin-3; galectin-1; M1 macrophage; M2 macrophage; self-association; fluorescence anisotropy; citrus pectin; galactomannane;

    Sammanfattning : Contemporary diseases like diabetes, asthma, atherosclerosis etc. are marked by chronic inflammation, often supported by the activity of different macrophages. Proteins from galectin family were found to contribute to disease pathophysiology. Therefore, there is an intensive interest in understanding different galectin functions. LÄS MER
