1. Formulation and characterisation of novel edible-packaging for fruits and vegetables
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)Sammanfattning : This master's thesis investigated the potential of algae raw materials, specifically k-carrageenan and to a lesser extent alginate, as film-forming ingredients for the development of a novel edible packaging solutions. The project involved the testing and characterisation of several active ingredients of algal and plant origins both as extracts and as ingredients in films. LÄS MER

5. Competition between managed honeybees and wild bumblebees - Quantifying dietary overlap in semi-natural grasslands
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)Sammanfattning : The decline of bees, such as bumblebees, over the last decades raises concerns as they are key pollinators in both agricultural and natural ecosystems. One proposed cause for the decline of wild bees is competition for food resources with managed honeybees. LÄS MER
