  1. 1. OPTIMIZATION OF CLONE SELECTION PLATFORM FOR PRODUCTION OF RECOMBINANT PROTEINS

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Basel Yousef; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background  Biologics are type of proteins that can be produced by expression in a foreign host for medical healthcare applications in humans. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are type of biologics that are designed to specifically bind to one target, with a purpose to inhibit a certain molecule that could be associated with a disease process.

  2. 2. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

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

    Author : Hana Faulds; [2023]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

  3. 3. TRACKING WASTEWATER EMISSIONS IN RIVERS ENTERING GULF OF BOTHNIA COAST

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Helen Mkandawire; [2023]
    Keywords : Nutrients inputs; wastewater; coastal waters; Gulf of Bothnia; wastewater emissions; nutrient transportation; marine water; nutrient loading; eutrophication.;

    Abstract : The Gulf of Bothnia consists of two sub-basins in the northern Baltic Sea: the Bothnian Sea (salinity 4-5‰) and Bothnian Bay (salinity 2-3‰). Changing nutrient concentrations and signs of eutrophication has recently been observed in the Gulf of Bothnia. READ MORE

  4. 4. Ammonium and nitrate sorption by biochar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Yasser Alrhban; [2023]
    Keywords : biochar nitrogen; retention; dialysis; absorption; adsorption; ammonium; nitrate;

    Abstract : Biochar has recently drawn attention due to its ability to increase soil fertility, sequester carbon and its expected effect on reducing the leaching of elements from the soil, especially nitrogen. The possibility of using biochar as a soil amendment to reduce the amount of nitrogen leaching, and then reducing the quantities of nitrogen fertilizers used in agriculture to avoid the bad environmental effects has become a matter of great interest.

  5. 5. REINDEER GRAZING IN A NORTHERN BOREAL FOREST : Seasonal and reindeer-induced changes in nutrient availability and soil temperature

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Agnes Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : nutrient availability; soil temperature; reindeer grazing; seasonal nutrient cycling; boreal forest;

    Abstract : Soil nutrient availability is a key component to understanding the boreal ecosystems, as it directly relates to plant productivity and ecosystem diversity. There is however little known about how the nutrient availability changes seasonally in the boreal forest. READ MORE
