21. Enterostatin - target proteins and intracellular mechanisms. Function in food intake and energy metabolism
Sammanfattning : Hunger and satiety are the results of complex neural events that involve several neurotransmitters and peptides. Enterostatin is an appetite-regulating peptide released in the intestine in response to fat ingestion. Enterostatin specifically decreases fat intake, but has also metabolic effects like inhibition of insulin secretion. LÄS MER
22. Evaluation of biosensors and flow cytometry as monitoring tools in lignocellulosic bioethanol production
Sammanfattning : The significant environmental impact of the current fossil fuel-based industry is a major concern for society. Consequently, various initiatives are being undertaken to establish a more sustainable industrial model. LÄS MER
23. Essays on economic policy on food consumption : environmental taxes, distribution and health
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers investigating the use of taxes on food consumption. The aim is providing policy information concerning what to eat from an environmental and health perspective. LÄS MER
24. Effects of temperature and terrestrial carbon on fish growth and pelagic food web efficiency
Sammanfattning : Both temperature and terrestrial dissolved organic carbon (TDOC) have strong impacts on aquatic food web dynamics and production. Temperature affects vital rates of all organisms and terrestrial carbon has been shown to alter the dynamics of phytoplankton and bacterial production and affect the trophic structure of planktonic food webs.

25. Combined production of edible mushrooms and biofuels from lignocellulosic residues
Sammanfattning : Forest residues, wood-processing by-products and other lignocellulosic materials are promising renewable resources for bioconversion to advanced biofuels such as cellulosic ethanol. Increased production of biofuels from lignocellulosic materials would allow reducing environmental problems caused by the use of fossil resources while supporting development of bioeconomy. LÄS MER
