21. Computational exploration of the medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase superfamily
Sammanfattning : The medium-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (MDR) superfamily is a protein family with more than 170,000 members across all phylogenetic branches. In humans there are 18 representatives. LÄS MER
22. Side-chain oxidized oxysterols as metabolic regulators in vivo
Sammanfattning : Oxysterols are oxygenated derivatives of cholesterol characterized by a very short half- life and their ability to pass lipophilic membranes easily, and they are considered as important intermediates in the excretion pathways of cholesterol and its conversion to bile acids. Evidence has been presented that the production and flux of oxysterols in the brain may also be of some importance for cognitive functions. LÄS MER
23. Content and Distribution of Short-Chain Fatty Acids in the Hindgut of Rats Fed Various Sources of Indigestible Carbohydrates
Sammanfattning : There is increasing evidence that short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) formed by colonic fermentation of indigestible carbohydrates have beneficial physiological effects. Butyric acid is the main energy substrate for the colonic mucosa and has been implicated as important in the prevention and treatment of diseases of the colonic mucosa, such as distal ulcerative colitis and cancer.

24. Catalytic partial oxidation of methane over nickel and ruthenium based catalysts for GTL applications
Sammanfattning : The Gas to Liquids (GTL) process is an important alternative for monetizing natural gas through the production of long-chain liquid hydrocarbons, e.g. diesel fuel. LÄS MER
25. Physico-chemical characterisation of novel surfactants
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis has been to investigate thephysico-chemical behaviour of novel surfactants based onnatural raw materials. Micellization properties, adsorptionatinterfaces and dynamic aspects have been studied. In additioncomplex formation of surfactants with enzymes and polymers hasbeen evaluated. LÄS MER
