Bakgrund: Detta projekt undersöker om det är möjligt att utveckla en kalibreringsmodell utifrån spektroskopiska mätningar i det nära infraröda (NIR) området, för bestämning av mängden och typen av fiberfraktioner i proteinpulver producerat från baljväxten alfalfa, utan att utföra våtexperiment. Alfalfa benämnas även Medicago sativa och lucerne, men kallas inom detta projekt alfalfa. En sådan typ aBackground: This project investigates if it is possible to develop a calibration model from near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic measurements, for determination of the amount and type of fibre fractions within protein powder produced from the legume alfalfa, without performing wet experiments. Alfalfa is also known as Medicago sativa and lucerne, but is in this project further referred to as alfalfa.

BvHb1.2 is a sugar beet haemoglobin (Hb) and a good candidate to be used as an artificial oxygen carrier (AOC). 19 mutants of BvHb1.2 were produced with random mutagenesis and expressed in BL-21 E. coli. The Hb content in whole cells was determined by using a refraction index modifier by mixing cell suspensions with 35% BSA. The two mutants (4 and 15) with the highest Hb production were purified u

Anthropogenic climate change poses new challenges to smallholder farmers in the Global South. At the farm level, science-based adaptation measures, as well as farmers’ autonomous responses based on indigenous knowledge, are simultaneously in use. This thesis investigates their linkages by assessing the role of indigenous knowledge for the development of modern climate change adaptation strategies

Lesion detection is a critical task for medical image understanding. While the problem has been widely addressed in a supervised semantic segmentation manner, the problem clinically appears more similar to novelty detection with few or no annotations for the lesion. The reason is two-fold: 1) it is intuitively easier to collect large dataset from healthy individuals than that from a specific type

Most women opt for so called cosmesis, a cover which mimics the look of a leg, on their prostheses in order to get real-looking legs. Their male counterparts usually choose to show the entire construction or parts of the raw prosthesis. However the cosmesis is in many cases lowering the functionality of the prosthetic leg. In this project, 8 female and 2 male lower-leg amputees were interviewed i

It uses the same kind of process that is used when producing essential oils but it releases the fumes directly into the room instead of condensing it. The idea is that instead of buying essential oils in the store you wil
