1. Evaluation of antioxidant effect of an algae extract on skin: in vitro study
Kandidat-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)Sammanfattning : Algae extracts are used as cosmetic products and used as additives in specific foods because of their antioxidant activity. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide and superoxide radicals are toxic on the skin and can be scavenged by antioxidants, which are abundant in microalgae. LÄS MER
2. Molecular Characterization of High β-Glucan Lines in Oats
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemiSammanfattning : Oats (Avena sativa) are part of the cereal whole grain family, and their production is on the rise for the past few years due to extensive research done on the health benefits it can provide to humans.

5. Haltbestämning av flavanoider i hantverksmässigt tillverkad choklad
Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemi och biomedicin (KOB)Sammanfattning : Choklad erhålls från kakaobönan som är frukten på kakaoträdet (Theobroma cacao). För att skapa choklad bearbetas kakaobönan vilket påverkar halten av bioaktiva ämnen i produkten. Choklad innehåller flera typer av bioaktiva ämnen där kakaoflavanolerna epikatechin och katechin är de mest framträdande. LÄS MER
