1. DNA based analyses of microbiota in fat fraction of raw milk
University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular SciencesAbstract : The microbiota of raw milk is complex and the analysis methods have during the years developed from culturing to molecular based methods, allowing more precise descriptions of the composition. This project included both cultivation and molecular methods to compile the distri-bution of microorganisms in the whole milk, since the most common way to day to investigate milk microbiota is based on defatted milk.

2. Analysis of the methanogenic and acetogenic community structure in young calves
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and ManagementAbstract : The newborn calf that has not been fed colostrum lacks immune defense and ruminal microorganisms needed for digestion of polysaccharides from plants and cellulose. Establishment of a gastrointestinal microbiota is vital. This study aimed to shed light on the establishment of the methanogenic and acetogenic community in young calves. READ MORE

4. Bacterial communities associated with roots of narrow-leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.) : diversity in relation to soil origin and effects on plant growth
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Biology and Forest Genetics (until 131231)Abstract : Bacteria play several important ecological functions in soil and in relation to plants. Legumes, such as the recently introduced grain legume narrow-leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.), develop N2-fixing root nodules in response to infection by soil bacteria generally called rhizobia but can also interact with other soil bacteria.

5. Microbial Diversity in Raw and Pasteurized Milk with Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (T-RFLP)
University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologiAbstract : Abstract In this thesis, a molecular PCR-based method was used to study the bacterial diversity in milk. The aim was to compare the microbiota of traditionally pasteurized milk with milk treated with a novel pasteurization technique, using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP).
