  1. 11. Optimization of Bacterial Strains and Development of Fermented Seaweed

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Eleni Milopoulou; [2022]
    Keywords : fermentation; lactic acid bacteria; seaweed; cultivation; bacterial growth; applied microbiology; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : This study aimed to understand the exploitation of bacterial strains used in various combinations to assist in the fermentation of seaweeds. The topic stems from the need to consider the valorization of seaweeds due to their abundance in natural habitats as well as their use as an innovative and sustainable food. READ MORE

  3. 12. Assessment of promoter regulation in Pseudomonas putida using GFP and flow cytometry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Luka Cululejevic; [2022]
    Keywords : applied microbiology; Pseudomonas putida; promoter characterization; aromatic compounds; vanillin; guaiacol; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Lignin is found in all biomass and is an abundant natural source of aromatic compounds. It has the potential to serve as a renewable raw material for a variety of chemicals currently derived from fossil fuel sources such as muconic acid, an important platform chemical. Kraft lignin is a waste stream from the pulp and paper industry. READ MORE

  4. 13. Optimization of DNA trace collection from firearms and effects of different gun handling scenarios

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Lisa Lindahl; [2022]
    Keywords : Forensic; DNA; DNA-recovery; Optimization of DNA-recovery; DNA-amount; firearms; guns; swabs; crimes; applied microbiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : More than 500 people die every day from gun violence worldwide. DNA traces may enable the identification of the shooter, but there is limited knowledge concerning where on firearms DNA can be found and how it got there. This project aimed to answer these questions as well as how the swab types and addition of detergents affect the DNA recovery. READ MORE

  5. 14. The differential signalling of the succinate receptor SUCNR1/GPR91, through Gi versus Gq

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Sofie Liljewall; [2022]
    Keywords : GPR91; SUCNR1; G protein recruitment; Gi; Gq; TRUPATH biosensor; BRET2; Applied Microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : G protein-coupled receptors are the biggest family of membrane bound receptor in the human genome, they are also target for many drugs due to their accessible location in the cell membrane. We have characterized the G protein recruitment of the succinate receptor 1 (SUCNR1/GPR91). READ MORE
