  1. 1. Antioxidant Activity of Bolivian Plant Secondary Metabolites

    Författare :Patricia Mollinedo; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytoprotection; Beta-carotene; TBARS; TEAC; ABTS; antioxidant activity; secondarymetabolites; Highland plains; plants; photoprotection; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Certain climatologically-adverse conditions in the basin of the Poopo Lake, located on the high plateau of the Bolivian Altiplano, have prevented the existence of a reliable agricultural system and the impact on the population of the area has been severe. These problems have been the main motivation in choosing this region for this particular study. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Analytical chemistry has developed throughout time to meet current needs. At present, the interest in biorefinery is growing, due to environmental awareness and the depletion of fossil resources. Biomass from agricultural and forestry industries has proven to be excellent raw material for different processes. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Multifunctional carbohydrate-based soft materials from cereal by-products

    Författare :Secil Yilmaz Turan; Francisco Vilaplana; Rosana Moriana; Amparo Jiménez Quero; Anna Ström; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :wheat bran; corn bran; hemicellulose; arabinoxylan; ferulic acid; subcritical water extraction; acetylation; films; hydrogels; crosslinking; regeneration; antioxidant activity; vetekli; majskli; hemicellulosa; arabinoxylan; ferulsyra; subkritisk vattenextraktion; acetylering; filmer; hydrogeler; tvärbindning; regeneration; antioxidant aktivitet; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Sammanfattning : Cereal production generates large quantities of by-products every year, which still remain underutilized. The hemicellulose fractions from cereal by-products are anticipated to play an important role in tomorrow's sustainable and bio-based circular economy. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Adipose tissue mitchondrial function is modulated by antioxidants

    Författare :Eduard Peris Franquet; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipocyte; metabolism; browning; antioxidant; mitochondria; oxidative stress; adrenergic recpetor; N-acetylcysteine; glutathione; reactive oxygen species;

    Sammanfattning : Antioxidants are widely used as reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging agents in experimental research and in conditions where oxidative stress plays a primary role. However, the effect of antioxidant supplementation on white and brown adipose tissue functionality is understudied, and the role of ROS and/or antioxidant treatment during adipose tissue browning, a process in which the adipocytes’ mitochondrial density and activity increase, is largely unknown.
