  1. 16. Isolation and genomic characterization of three PHA degrading bacteria from the marine environment

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

    Author : Giulia Elli; [2019]
    Keywords : PHA; degradation of PHA; marine bacteria; sulphate reducing bacteria; SRB; SRM; biotechnology; bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The broader goal of this project was to investigate what kind of effects the accumulation of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) in the marine environment might have on the microbial world. Bacteria were isolated from biofilms fouling PHA pellets placed in the sediment-water interface; the goal was to isolate PHA degraders that were also sulphate reducers. READ MORE

  3. 17. The effects of acute aerobic exercise on executive functions

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för hälsa och välfärd

    Author : Caroline Brander Löf; Sanna Lindblom; [2019]
    Keywords : attention; cognition; executive functions; exercise; inhibition; working memory;

    Abstract : The aim of the study was to examine the acute effects of exercise on three executivefunctions: attention, inhibition and working memory, in regularly exercising women (​n​ = 10)and men (​n​ = 10). Furthermore, the purpose was to investigate if different intensity levels ofaerobic exercise had an effect on executive functioning. READ MORE

  4. 18. Campylobacter survival under stress conditions encountered between poultry farm and the human intestine

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

    Author : Alfalah Yazan; [2018]
    Keywords : Campylobacter; Micro-aerobic; Survival; Dehydration; Poultry; Zoonosis; Inactivation; Biofilms.;

    Abstract : Campylobacter are probably the most important bacterial pathogen related to food-borne illnesses; specifically, gastroenteritis and diarrheal diseases. These bacteria can be isolated from various environments, but always originate from the intestine of warm blooded animals. READ MORE

  5. 19. Investigation of growth modes of the lithoautotrophic bacterium Cupriavidus necator

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

    Author : Raquel Perruca Foncillas; [2018]
    Keywords : applied microbiology; teknisk mikrobiologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The microorganism Cupriavidus necator is a very interesting bacterium that has been established as a model microorganism for its capability to produce polyhydroxyalkanoates, more specifically polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), a potential precursor/raw material for bioplastics. Lately, the scientific community has raised interest in the chemolithoautotrophic nature of C. READ MORE

  6. 20. Construction and Characterization of 3rd Generation Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains for PHB production form Xylose

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

    Author : Pálína Haraldsdóttir; [2018]
    Keywords : Applied microbiology; Teknisk mikrobiologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Poly-3-D-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biopolymer naturally produced by a range of bacterial species. PHB production both from glucose and xylose has also been enabled by engineering the robust baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, however yields remain low. In the present study, additional modifications were carried out in S. READ MORE
