  1. 1. Generation and characterization of a prostate-specific membrane antigen positive eukaryotic cell system for phage selection

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Linda Ehrenborg; [2021]
    Keywords : PSMA; Affibody molecules; Directed evolution; phage display; flow cytometry; PSMA; affibody; riktad evolution; fagdisplay; flödescytometri;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancer types worldwide. However, current diagnostic approaches and treatments are invasive and unspecific. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an ideal biomarker for prostate cancer and can act as a target for therapeutic or diagnostic agents. READ MORE

  3. 2. Promoter regulation : designing cells for biotechnological applications

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Molekylär biomimetik

    Author : Mikael Andersson Schönn; [2016]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; heterocyst; promoter; specificity; confocal microscopy; immobilization;

    Abstract : The filamentous cyanobacteria Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133 is a model species fordevelopment of sustainable production methods of numerous compounds. One of its uniquefeatures is the anaerobic environment of the strains nitrogen fixing heterocyst cells. READ MORE

  4. 3. Electrochemical functionalization of epitaxial graphene

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Petter Lindgren; [2015]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this work graphene has been functionalized with antibodies. Different functionalization methods of graphene already found in literature have been evaluated. An electrochemical functionalization process with subsequent immobilization of antibodies have been chosen for this thesis. READ MORE

  5. 4. Robust Encapsulation of Yeast for Bioethanol Production

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Institutionen Ingenjörshögskolan

    Author : Sainath Namthabad; Ramesh Chinta; [2014]
    Keywords : Microencapsulation; Cell immobilization; Entrapment; Biomineralization; Genipin; Bioethanol; Lignocellulosic hydrolyzates;

    Abstract : In the future the demand for ethanol is expected to increase greatly due to the rising energy requirements in the world. Lignocellulosic materials are a suitable and potentially cheap feedstock for sustainable production of fuel ethanol, since vast quantities of agricultural and forest residues are available in many countries.

  6. 5. Co-cultures of Yeasts and Zygomycetes in the Form of Pellets Methods for the Preparation of Pellets and Biocapsules, Their Properties and Applications

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Institutionen Ingenjörshögskolan

    Author : Jonas Nyman; Michael Lacintra; [2013]
    Keywords : Zygomycetes; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; Immobilization; Flocculation; Fungal Pellets; Biocapsules; Rhizomucor; Rhizopus; Mucor; Bioethanol; Fermentation;

    Abstract : Many industrially important fungi can grow in the form of small spherical pellets.Such pellets reduce the viscosity and enhances mass transfer rates in culture broths.The pelleted morphology also influences the fungus’s metabolism, directing it tospecific metabolites. The pellets are easily harvested from the broth and recycled. READ MORE
