  1. 1. Effect of nutrient limitation in chemostat cultures on amino acid excretion in Clostridium thermocellum

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Chonticha Phongsawat; [2019]
    Keywords : Biotechnology; ethanol; Clostridium; chemostat; nitrogen;

    Abstract : Introduction: Clostridium thermocellum is considered a model organism forconsolidated bioprocessing, due to its ability to hydrolyze lignocellulosicbiomass more efficiently than many other organisms and to produce ethanol.In order to meet the industrial requirements of ethanol yield and titer, metabolicengineering efforts have been made resulting in a strain that successfullydisplays increased ethanol yield with reduced amount of some byproducts.

  4. 3. An Multivariable Approach for the Chemostat Model

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för matematik (MA)

    Author : Sebastian Thörngren; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : We use a multivariable approach to study the Chemostat model for a food chain. Using a Lyapunov function we reduce the system to a two-dimensional system.We then find isoclines and equilibrium points using a change of variables and the implicit function theorem. READ MORE

  5. 4. Characterization of Succinate Producing Bacteria

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Sofia Nyström; [2015]
    Keywords : xylose; succinic acid; chemical engineering; kemiteknik; biological production; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Målet med detta projekt var att studera två sorters bakterier, Actinobacillus succinogenes och Basfia succiniciproducens, och deras produktion av bärnstenssyra. Bärnstenssyra är en dikarboxylsyra som även är en metabolit i citronsyracykeln. READ MORE

  6. 5. Resistance and resilience of microbial communities - temporal and spatial insurance against perturbations

    University essay from Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Limnologi

    Author : Didier Baho; [2010]
    Keywords : Resistance; Resilience; Microbial communities; Perturbation; Temporal and Spatial;

    Abstract : Bacterial communities are fundamental components of many processes occurring in aquatic ecosystems, since through microbial activities substantial amount of matter and energy is transferred from a pool of DOC to higher trophic levels. Previous studies highlighted the beneficial effects of diversity on ecosystem functioning, however studies on the resistance and resilience in microbial communities are scarce. READ MORE
