  1. 1. Microbial production of chemical building blocks from lignin

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Författare :Kevin Bertilsson; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Lignin; Green plastic; Vanillin; Microbial production; Applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Plastics, derived from fossil fuels, have raised considerable environmental concerns. This has prompted the search for sustainable and safer plastic precursors alternatives. One alternative explored in the present study is vanillin, a phenolic compound derived from lignin, an abundant and renewable natural polymer. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Effekt av fruktos på utveckling av karies och diabetes mellitus typ 2 : The effect of fructose in the development of dental caries and diabetes mellitus type 2

    Kandidat-uppsats,

    Författare :Fides Mercy Camay; Taraneh Hosseini; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Dental caries; diabetes; diabetes mellitus type 2; fructose; monosaccharides; Diabetes; diabetes mellitus typ 2; fruktos; karies; monosackarider;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction/Background: Fructose is a monosaccharide that can also be extracted from sugar beet and sugar cane. There are several foods with high fructose content and affect people’s healthy lifestyle. Dental caries is defined as a dental disease caused by bacteria and the presence of fermentable sugars.

  7. 5. Exploring Regioselective 5N-acylation of Neuraminic acid

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Författare :Simon Hans Lilje; [2022]
    Nyckelord :acylation; amide; antibacterial drugs; regioselective deprotection; sialic acid; organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : In this project, a regioselective method to deprotect and acylate the amide on C5 of sialic acid is explored. Sialic acid is one of the most complex monosaccharides and is an important ligand in many higher organisms in intercellular cell communication. The most prominent example is related to the immune system. LÄS MER
