  1. 6. Aggregating predictions of a yeast semantic segmentation model : Reducing a pixel classifier into a binary image classifier

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Ali Muquri; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The introduction of machine learning in clinical microbiology is important for aiding clinical laboratories with highly repetitive tasks that are fatiguing, error-prone, and require long employee training time due to the complex nature of the task. A challenging task that belongs to the subareas that need assistance is yeast detection in fluorescence microscopy where various yeast morphologies exist. READ MORE

  2. 7. Production of succinic acid by Actinobacillus succinogenes in attached-growth bioreactors and dynamic modelling of biofilm formation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Henrik Östberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Actinobacillus succinogenes; Succinic acid; Biofilm; Attached-growth bioreactor; Dynamic modelling; Cell cultivation; Applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Actinobacillus succinogenes is a microorganism is a very efficient producer of succinic acid, a chemical with a wide range of industrial applications. The bacterium is prone to form biofilm, a flocculation of cells attached to a surface. READ MORE

  3. 8. The Examination of Alternative Methods for Sperm Cell Lysis and Purification of Sexual Assault Samples

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Emilie Boson; [2023]
    Keywords : Differential lysis; Differential extraction; Sexual assault samples; Sperm cells; Forensic; DNA recovery; DNA profiling; DNA purification; Applied microbiology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Forensic sexual assault samples typically contain a mixture of a small quantity of sperm cells and a high quantity of epithelial cells. This relationship complicates the generation of a DNA profile, which prompts the need for differential lysis and extraction of the DNA. READ MORE
