1. Taming of Oxygen in the Electron Microscope : Effects of High Energy Electron Irradiation on O2 and Oxides
Sammanfattning : Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is an atomic resolution technique that allows for in depth analysis of the properties of different materials by passing high energy electrons through a thin sample and detecting how they are affected. However, due to the strong interaction between electrons and matter, the probability of the sample remaining unperturbed by the electron irradiation is small. LÄS MER
2. On the importance of oxidizable structures in bleached kraft pulps
Sammanfattning : After cooking, kraft pulps always contain not only residual lignin but also significant amounts of hexenuronic acid and other non-lignin structures oxidizable by permanganate under the standard kappa number determination conditions. These here referred to as false lignin. LÄS MER
3. Substrate water binding to the oxygen-evolving complex in photosystem II
Sammanfattning : Oxygenic photosynthesis in plants, algae and cyanobacteria converts sunlight into chemical energy. In this process electrons are transferred from water molecules to CO2 leading to the assembly of carbohydrates, the building blocks of life. LÄS MER
4. EPR Studies of Photosystem II : Characterizing Water Oxidizing Intermediates at Cryogenic Temperatures
Sammanfattning : The principles of natures own light-driven water splitting catalyst, Photosystem II (PSII), can in the future inspire us to use water as electron and proton source to generate light-driven H2 production. To mimic this challenging step, it is important to understand how the enzyme system can oxidize water. LÄS MER
5. Effects of Protons and Small Alcohols on the Oxygen-Evolving Complex of Photosystem II
Sammanfattning : Higher plants and algae use oxygenic photosynthesis to convert solar energy to reducing equivalents and chemical energy. The ultimate electron donor to oxygenic photosynthesis is water. Oxidation of water to oxygen occurs in the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) in Photosystem II (PSII). The OEC is composed of four Mn atoms, Ca2+ and Cl-. LÄS MER
