  1. 1. The importance of bacterial functional diversity for mixotrophic flagellate function

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Simon Wentritt; [2023]
    Keywords : Mixotrophs; Functional Diversity; Algae Culturing;

    Abstract : This project examined the role of functional diversity of bacterial prey organisms on a mixotrophic flagellate’s function. The concept of functional diversity and its role for ecosystem functioning is a subject of ongoing research and controversially discussed. Mixotrophy is the combination of different modes of nutrition in one organism. READ MORE

  3. 2. Nio mjölkproducenters erfarenheter av att vaccinera mot E. coli mastit : en intervjustudie om effekt, arbetsmiljö och administration

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Moa Tallåker; [2023]
    Keywords : E. coli; mastit; immunförsvar; klinisk mastit; subklinisk mastit; vaccin;

    Abstract : Juverinflammation är en av de vanligaste sjukdomarna som drabbar mjölkkor, juverinflammation kallas också för mastit. Mastit orsakas i huvudsak av bakterier. Olika bakterier ger upphov till olika sorters mastiter med olika sjukdomsförlopp. Mastiterna kan vara kliniska eller subkliniska, det som skiljer dem åt är symptomen och tidsbilden. READ MORE

  4. 3. Survival of foodborne bacteria on wooden and plastic cutting boards - A laboratory protocol

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Nicole Svärd; [2023]
    Keywords : foodborne bacteria; cutting board; bacterial survival; wood; plastic; laboratory protocol;

    Abstract : The survival of foodborne bacteria on different cutting board materials has been studied and a functional laboratory protocol for further studies on the subject has been established. Six different bacteria, E. coli, S. aureus, L monocytogenes, S. READ MORE

  5. 4. Epidemiology and genotyping of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus with amplicon-based Nanopore-sequencing : Creating a panel of clinically relevant genes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Max Koivistoinen Jonsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Amplicon-sequencing; Genomic typing; MRSA; MSSA; MinION;

    Abstract : Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a variant of the more common Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), an opportunistic pathogen a portion of the human population carries as normal bacterial flora. When an outbreak of MRSA occurs, it is often important to determine if and how these strains are related to each other. READ MORE

  6. 5. Towards time-resolved cryo-EM of SARS-CoV-2 replication-transcription complex and Staphylococcus aureus DNA gyrase

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Anna Králová; [2023]
    Keywords : time-resolved cryo-EM; DNA gyrase; SARS-CoV-2; replication-transcription complex; protein purification;

    Abstract : Time-resolved cryo-EM has already provided ground-breaking discoveries in various fields, including structural biology, biochemistry, and drug development. Compared to traditional structural biology methods where mostly stabilized conformations are reconstructed, the main advantage of time-resolved cryo-EM is its ability to capture dynamic processes in biological samples at near-atomic resolution, which allows for studying biological structures as they change and interact in real-time.
