  1. 6. Used but not Sensed - The Paradox of D-xylose Metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Författare :Karen Ofuji Osiro; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; saccharomyces cerevisiae; sugar sensing signalling; D-Xylose; XR XDH; GFP biosensor; cAMP PKA; Snf3p Rgt2p; SNF1 Mig1p; flow cytometry;

    Sammanfattning : The realization that the extraction and combustion of fossil fuels is having serious effects on the environment and the climate, together with the ever-growing need for fuels, has led to the development of the concept of the biorefinery. Biorefineries are refineries in which fossil resources, such as oil, are replaced by renewable biomaterials to produce biofuels and biochemicals. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Drowning-out crystallisation of benzoic acid : Influence of processing conditions and solvent composition on crystal size and shape

    Författare :Xiomara Holmbäck; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :solvent effect; drowning-out; crystallization; benzoic acid; solubility; crystal habit; crystal growth; interfacial energy; growth mechanism;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present investigation is to increase theunderstanding of the role played by the solvent in inhibitingor enhancing crystal growth. Drowning-out crystallizationexperiments has been performed by the controlled addition ofwater or ethanol water mixtures to a saturated solution ofbenzoic acid in ethanol-water mixtures. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Microfabricated Gas Sensors Based on Hydrothermally Grown 1-D ZnO Nanostructures

    Författare :Mingzhi Jiao; Hugo Nguyen; Klas Hjort; Anita Lloyd Spetz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas sensor; zinc oxide; on-chip; hydrothermal growth; nanorods; nanowires; annealing; palladium oxide; photoluminescence; alloy; sensitivity; selectivity; stability;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, gas sensors based on on-chip hydrothermally grown 1-D zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures are presented, to improve the sensitivity, selectivity, and stability of the gas sensors.Metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors are well-established tools for the monitoring of air quality indoors and outdoors.

  4. 9. Thin films for indoor air monitoring : Measurements of Volatile Organic Compounds

    Författare :Umut Cindemir; Niklasson Gunnar; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Lars Österlund; Magnus Willander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas sensor; thin film; adcanced gas depostion; sputter deposition; nickel oxide; gold nanoparticles; indium tin oxide; acetaldehyde; formaldehyde;

    Sammanfattning : Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the indoor air have adverse effects on the dwellers residing in a building or a vehicle. One of these effects is called sick building syndrome (SBS). LÄS MER

  5. 10. A systems biology understanding of protein constraints in the metabolism of budding yeasts

    Författare :Iván Domenzain Del Castillo Cerecer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; gene regulation; omics analysis; enzyme capacity; metabolism; systems biology; stress adaptation; genome-scale modeling; metabolic engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Fermentation technologies, such as bread making and production of alcoholic beverages, have been crucial for development of humanity throughout history. Saccharomyces cerevisiae provides a natural platform for this, due to its capability to transform sugars into ethanol. LÄS MER
