  1. 1. Predictive Modeling of Pipetting Dynamics. Multivariate Regression Analysis: PLS and ANN for Estimating Density and Volume from Pressure Recordings

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Lisa Linard Pedersen; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Thermo Fisher Scientific manufacture automatic pipetting instruments for diagnostic tests. These tests are sensitive to abnormalities and changes in e.g. volume or density could potentially lead to less precision or other issues in the pipetting work flow. READ MORE

  3. 2. Microbial production of chemical building blocks from lignin

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Kevin Bertilsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Lignin; Green plastic; Vanillin; Microbial production; Applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Plastics, derived from fossil fuels, have raised considerable environmental concerns. This has prompted the search for sustainable and safer plastic precursors alternatives. One alternative explored in the present study is vanillin, a phenolic compound derived from lignin, an abundant and renewable natural polymer. READ MORE

  4. 3. Cloning and expressing the genes encoding Glycerol dehydratase (GDHt) and 1,3-Propanediol dehydrogenase (1,3-PDDH) in E. coli

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Author : Eleni Pechlivani; [2023]
    Keywords : 1; 3-Propanediol; Glycerol dehydratase; 3-Propanediol dehydrogenase; Glycerol dehydratase reactivase; E. coli; Protein expression; Biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The biodiesel sector has witnessed tremendous growth in recent years, leading to a significant increase in glycerol production as a by-product. Addressing the challenge of glycerol valorization is crucial for the sustainability of the biodiesel industry. READ MORE

  5. 4. Biopolymers processed and used as enzyme carriers

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Dániel Mészáros; [2023]
    Keywords : Biobased materials; plasticized sodium alginate; water stability; extraction kinetics; enzyme carrier; Biobaserade material; Mjukgjort natriumalginat; Vattenstabilitet; extraktionskinetik; Enzymbärare;

    Abstract : Syftet med detta masterprojekt var att undersöka möjligheten att använda biobaserat, mjukgjort natriumalginat (NaAlg) som enzymbärare. Alginaterna görs traditionellt bearbetbara genom att tillsätta olika mjukgörare, såsom polyoler (glycerol, sorbitol, etc.), i detta arbete användes glycerol. READ MORE

  6. 5. Biodiesel production from rape seed oil catalyzed by calcium oxide doped with lithium

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Abdulbasit Abdalla; Emilia Odgren; [2023]
    Keywords : Biodiesel; transesterifiering; FFA; glycerol; FAME; förtvålningsreaktion; Li-CaO; BET; EDS; SEM; heterogena katalysatorer; utbyte; kinetik;

    Abstract : Biodiesel ses som ett av de främsta substituten för fossila bränslen, då den relativt enkelt kan appliceras i redan existerande dieselmotorer. Dagens produktion av biodiesel använder sig av homogena katalysatorer som inte återanvänds i processen, men för en mer cirkulär och i längden en billigare process ses heterogena katalysatorer som ett alternativ.
