1. Human Fetal Hemoglobin : Biochemical Characterization and Recombinant Production
Sammanfattning : Blood transfusion is a common medical procedure when oxygen supply in the body is impaired. However, blood transfusion is not always without risks. The uncontrolled spreading of blood borne pathogens such as HIV or hepatitis B and C virus has urged researchers to look for “blood substitutes”. LÄS MER
2. Influence of electrode material and stochastic factors on the performance and microbial community assembly in microbial electrochemical systems
Sammanfattning : Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are systems with microbial communities in the form of biofilms on electrode surfaces. The electrogenic bacteria in the anode biofilm act as catalysts for the oxidization of organic compounds, leading to release of electrons, generation of electrical current, and production of hydrogen and methane at the cathode.

3. Four carbon oxychemicals from renewable resources
Sammanfattning : Butanol, butyric acid and butyraldehyde are important 4-carbon oxychemicals typically generated from petro-chemical sources. All have significant markets in the food industry either for direct use as flavorings or as chemical feedstocks for generating butyric acid and butyraldehyde derived flavour compounds. LÄS MER
4. Municipal wastewater treatment by microsieving, microfiltration and forward osmosis : Concepts and potentials
Sammanfattning : Conventional wastewater treatment plants are designed for treating manmade wastewater (e.g., from households and industries) and to protect the environment (e.g. LÄS MER
5. Instrumentation, Control and Automation in Anaerobic Digestion
Sammanfattning : Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a biochemical process in nature. It has been used to decompose organic waste in order to reduce environmental pollution, and to destroy pathogenic microorganisms for the protection of human and animal health. The process itself produces methane, which can then be used as an energy source. LÄS MER
