  1. 11. A Comparative Study Between Detection Methods for Spoilage Microorganisms in Fruit Juice

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Hannah Viklund; Lovisa Persson; [2023]
    Keywords : Alicyclobacillus; ACB; pear; IFU method; applied microbiology; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : The main concerns of food spoilage in fruit juices are the off-flavours and off-odours caused by microorganisms. In order to ensure high quality products, these microorganisms must therefore be eliminated or below a certain limit. READ MORE

  3. 12. Evaluation of strategies for construction of protease libraries in yeast.

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

    Author : Sidharth Jaya Sankar; [2022]
    Keywords : Yeast; GFP-fusion technology; protease; applied microbiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Proteases are a group of enzymes that are involved in breaking down larger proteins into smaller polypeptides or single amino acids, and they are used in various applications. In this project, the potential of budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as host for the construction of protease libraries is evaluated. READ MORE

  4. 13. Microbial ecosystem analysis of biochar-enriched soil in Kenya using microfluidic soil models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Erik Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Soil microbial ecosystem analysis; Microbe abundance; Microbe foraging; Biochar; Agriculture; Microfluidics; In-situ visualization; Kenya; SoilChip; Soil model; Minor Field Study; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Healthy soil is rich in diverse microbial life, and a healthy microbial ecosystem is crucial for any well-functioning agriculture. Soil microbes are essential for organic decomposition and nutrient recycling in the soil, which make nutrients available for agricultural crops. READ MORE

  5. 14. 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

  6. 15. 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
