  1. 1. Method development of flow cytometry analysis of yeast and lactic acid bacteria viability for alcohol fermentation

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

    Author : Megha Komahan; [2023]
    Keywords : Flow cytometry; yeast; lactic acid bacteria; fermentation; cell viability; applied microbiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The usage of yeast in conventional brewing techniques involving alcoholic fermentation is an age-old process. Analyzing the viability and obtaining physiological information regarding the microbial diversity of the fermentation samples plays a pivotal role in obtaining real-time information as well as developing a more efficient process design.

  3. 2. Killer action of Spok homologue in Fusarium vanattenii : Investigation through site directed mutagenesis

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för organismbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Samuel Jorayev; [2023]
    Keywords : Spok genes; FuSpok; Meiotic Driver; Fusarium; transposons;

    Abstract : The Spok genes are a group of selfish genetic elements in the fungus Podespora anserina which kills spores lacking them. These Spoks function through a toxin and resistance domain. Homologues of these have been found across other species such as in the Fusarium genus. READ MORE

  4. 3. Replacement of fish protein in fish feed : effects on the yeast flora in the gut of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus)

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Hanna Rydmark; [2023]
    Keywords : Microbiota; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; fishmeal; mussel meal; Mytilus edulis; aquaculture;

    Abstract : The aim with this study was to investigate how feeds with different protein sources influence the levels and composition of the yeast flora in the gut of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus). Arctic charr were fed for two weeks on a control diet (C) with fishmeal (FM) or experimental diets with 40% FM replaced by yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) (Y), meal from blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) (M) or a feed with Baltic Sea originated protein; 33% FM, 33% mussel meal (MM) and 33% S.

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. EXPRESSION OF SUGAR BEET HEMOGLOBIN IN PICHIA PASTORIS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

    Author : Johan Pettersson; [2022]
    Keywords : Pichia pastoris; expression; sugar beet; hemoglobin; km71; ppic9; ppic3.5; phil-s1; applied biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : People who don’t eat meat can suffer from iron deficiency due to the lower efficiency of absorption of non-heme iron compared to heme iron. The aim of this master thesis was to explore the possibilities of producing a plant-based alternative of heme-iron by evaluating the efficiency of expression of sugar beet hemoglobin in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris.
