    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Cationic amylopectin; Hydroxypropyl amylopectin; Ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose; Substituent distribution; Enzymic degradation; HPAEC-PAD; MALDI-TOF-MS; ESI-MS; Kemi; Analytical chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Starch and cellulose can be chemically modified to produce derivatives with specific properties. Knowledge of correlations between the modification reaction, substituent distribution and properties is important in order to design modification processes so as to produce derivatives with the desired properties.

  2. 2. In vitro and in vivo oxidation of diastereomers of lignin models of arylgylcerol b-aryl ether type and heterologous expression of laccase

    Författare :Christina Bohlin; Leif Jönsson; Ming Tien; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Enzymic and non-enzymic oxidation of lignin models of the arylglycerol β-aryl ether type was investigated in experiments aimed at providing a better understanding of the initial phase of biological lignin degradation. Product profiles and diasteromer selectivity were determined to gain knowledge of the properties of the oxidants and pave the way for evaluation of the presence of the oxidants in ligninolytic fungal cultures.

  3. 3. Oxidative stress and mitochondrial function : role of ubiquinol as antioxidant

    Författare :Patrik Andrée; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Over the last three decades it has been established that biquinone (coenzyme Q), in addition to its function as an electron and proton carrier in the respiratory chain, acts in its reduced form (ubiquinol) as an antioxidant. The main theme of this thesis is a study of the antioxidant function of ubiquinol in preparations of beef heart submitochondrial particles, which consist of inverted vesicular fragments of the inner mitochondrial membrane.
