  1. 1. Catalytic Upgrading of Waste Oils to Advanced Biofuels – Deactivation and Kinetic Modelling Study

    Författare :Prakhar Arora; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stearic acid; TEM; Advanced biofuels; NiMo; Catalytic HDO; MoS2; Kinetic modelling; Oleic acid; Hydrodeoxygenation;

    Sammanfattning : The demand for liquid hydrocarbons as transportation fuels is enormous and ever growing. Advanced biofuels is one of the promising solutions to keep pace with the global transition to cleaner energy by reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Acylated cell-penetrating peptides for nucleic acid delivery

    Författare :Tönis Lehto; Ülo Langel; Eric Johnston; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cell-penetrating peptides; nucleic acid delivery; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Sammanfattning : In recent decades many new methods have been developed to cure or treat genetical disorders such as cancer, viral infections or inheritable diseases. The problem is that the nucleic acids and their synthetic analogs, oligonucleotides, are not able to cross the cell membrane due to their physicochemical properties like high negative charge and size.

  3. 3. Fatty Acid Composition in Skeletal Muscle : Influence of Physical Activity and Dietary Fat Quality

    Författare :Agneta Andersson; Len Storlien; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Skeletal muscle; phospholipids; triglycerides; fatty acids; physical activity; lipid peroxidation; dietary fat quality; n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Geriatrics; geriatrik;

    Sammanfattning : Insulin sensitivity is related to the fatty acid profile of skeletal muscle. The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether physical activity and dietary fat quality, independent of each other, influence the fatty acid composition of the skeletal muscle lipids. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Nucleic acid delivery : reports from the search of the magic bullet

    Författare :Joana Viola; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Gene therapy is regarded as one of the most promising therapeutic approaches, since it has the potential to treat disorders by correcting malformations at the nucleic acids level rather than proteins, as opposed to conventional medicine. However, for non-viral gene therapy to successfully fulfill the requirements associated to the “magic bullet” has proven difficult. LÄS MER
