Glucose is an important source of energy for mammalian cells and enters the cytosol via glucose transporters. It has been thought for a long time that glucose entering the cytosol is swiftly phosphorylated in most cell types / hence the levels of free glucose are very low, beyond the detection level. However, the introduction of new fluorescence re...
Namen diplomske naloge je bil s pomočjo diferenčne dinamične kalorimetrije poiskati razlike med termično obremenitvijo mešanic asparagin/glukoza, asparagin/fruktoza in asparagin/saharoza ter skupaj s pregledom literature ugotoviti in pojasniti povezavo med vrsto sladkorja in nastankom akrilamida med toplotno obdelavo živil. Omenjene mešanice in pos...
Unlike conventional yeasts, several oleaginous yeasts, including Saitozyma podzolica DSM 27192, possess the innate ability to grow and produce biochemicals from plant-derived lignocellulosic components such as hexose and pentose sugars. To elucidate the genetic basis of S. podzolica growth and lipid production on glucose and xylose, we performed co...
Detekcija glukoze je za zdravje posameznika izrednega pomena, njene dosedanje metode zaznavanja pa so nepraktične in invazivne, zato so v diplomi predstavljeni novi elektrokemijski biosenzorji, ki delujejo na osnovi grafena. Grafen je eno najpomembnejših odkritij tega stoletja in je v biosenzoriki izredno cenjen zaradi svojih izjemnih kemijskih in ...
Zaradi vse večjega onesnaževanja okolja z izpusti in posega v naravo je vsakršna alternativna možnost za proizvodnjo kemikalij dobrodošla. Ena izmed možnosti, s katero lahko zmanjšamo našo odvisnost od nafte in ublažimo emisije toplogrednih plinov, je uporaba obnovljivih virov. V zadnjem času so ogljikovi hidrati, predvsem glukoza, tisti, ki priteg...
V voltametriji so se po Hg uveljavili novi elektrodni materiali na osnovi C, Bi, Sn itd. Predvsem Bi in modifikacije C kažejo vrsto prednosti in se jih uporablja za določanje biološko pomembnih analitov, kot so na primer kovinski ioni, nitrofenoli in glukoza. Med biosenzorji imajo največji pomen senzorji za zaznavanje glukoze, katerih ključni eleme...
Imipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant that has been approved for treating depression and anxiety in patients and animals and that has relatively mild side effects. However, the mechanisms of imipramine-associated disruption to metabolism and negative hepatic, renal, and retinal effects are not well defined. In this study, we evaluated C57BL6/J m...
Fructose and salt intake remain high, particularly in adolescents and young adults. The present studies were designed to evaluate the impact of high fructose and/or salt during pre- and early adolescence on salt sensitivity, blood pressure, arterial compliance, and left ventricular (LV) function in maturity. Male 5-week-old Sprague Dawley rats were...
The hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a tightly regulated system that represents one of the body’s mechanisms for responding to acute and chronic stress. Prolonged stress and/or inadequate regulation of the stress system can lead to a condition of chronic hypercortisolism or, in some cases, a blunted cortisol response to stress, contributing t...

The dairy matrix may influence digestion and absorption of lipids and thereby risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, few postprandial studies have compared dairy products that differed only in terms of their matrix. We aimed to investigate acute 8-h postprandial lipid, glycemic, and appetite responses after intake of isoenergetic dairy me...
