1. Comparing processed and raw honey microbiota using 16S gene barcoding
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Still one of the most important animals on the planet, Honeybees are responsible for pollinating several species of plants that are vital to the ecosystem. They also produce honey, which is one of the few natural edible products of animal origin and has many beneficial properties for humans. READ MORE

2. Characterization of a novel bacteriumoriginating from a biogas process
University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular SciencesAbstract : An anaerobic bacterium, isolated from an enrichment culture originating from a biogas reactor operating at high ammonia conditions, was characterised via various tests. An analysis of the 16S rRNA gene confirmed that the closest relative was Desulfotomaculum halophilum with 92,5 % similarity. READ MORE

3. Seasonal shift in the intestinal microbiota of honey bees, Apis mellifera
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Honey bees, Apis mellifera, are important pollinators across the world who provide the crucial function of maintaining the health and wellbeing of natural and agricultural ecosystems. However, in recent years, there has been a documented decline in honey bee populations worldwide. READ MORE

4. Isolation of an ammonia-tolerant syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium originating from a thermophilic biogas digester
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Syntrophic relationships between fatty acid degrading bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens are important for a well-functioning anaerobic degradation process during biogas production from organic waste material. This is particularly important in biogas processes fed protein-rich material as their degradation gives rise to high levels of ammonia, which inhibits many microorganisms. READ MORE
