6. Bioactivity of Medicinal Bolivian Andean plants. Effects on cell proliferation and related processes
Sammanfattning : Colon cancer is common in both developed and developing countries, and is responsible for at least 600,000 deaths globally every year. It is therefore the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality. Extensive studies are being conducted worldwide to find more effective drugs that can be used in cancer treatment. LÄS MER
7. Extraction of polymeric rapeseed straw hemicelluloses for renewable films
Sammanfattning : Polymeric hemicelluloses with high molecular weight were extracted from rapeseed straw with a straight forward hydrothermal extraction method, evaluated and refined by statistical factorial screening design and ‘severity factor’ analysis. The influence of the extraction conditions, time, temperature and pH of the extraction liquid, on the composition, molecular weight, yield and properties was unveiled. LÄS MER
8. Processing of berries – Effects on functionality, stability and bioactivity of anthocyanins
Sammanfattning : Berries are rich natural sources of anthocyanins, water-soluble pigments in plants that have been linked to beneficial effects against chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases. However, anthocyanins as well as other polyphenolic compounds are often sensitive to degradation during processing, storage and digestion. LÄS MER
9. Seaweed as a sustainable source of food protein: maximizing seaweed protein content, protein recovery, and nutritional quality
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on utilizing seaweed, such as Saccharina latissima and Ulva fenestrata , as sustainable food protein sources to complement terrestrial protein currently limited by land and water supply. While seaweed holds promise, its protein content is lower than pulses and antinutrients reduce protein nutritional quality. LÄS MER
