  1. 41. 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. 42. Metagenomic insights into AMR distributions in freshwaters and soils

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Jay Håkansson; [2023]
    Keywords : AMR; metagenomics; freshwater; microbial ecology; soil; antimicrobial resistance;

    Abstract : Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is rapidly becoming a public health issue, as more and more infectious bacteria become resistant to our known antibiotics. Suggested reasons for the proliferation of these strains are misuse and overuse of antimicrobials, especially on an industrial level, in agriculture, livestock and aquaculture. READ MORE

  4. 43. Production of polymers from a papermills wastewater using HTC substrate. : Investigating the viability of using wastewater sludge from Skoghalls’ papermill in combination with filtrate from HTC of sewage sludge to produce biological plastic producing polymers.

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för energi-, miljö- och byggteknik

    Author : Regan George; [2023]
    Keywords : PHA; HTC-substrate; Polymer;

    Abstract : Since their conception, plastics have been a dominant product due to the versatility of use, and readily available raw materials. However, the production and consumption of synthetic plastics have continued to increase over the years, leading to a significant rise in plastic waste and its associated environmental impacts, such as the detrimental effects plastic waste has on ecosystems, including the presence of toxic microplastics and risks to marine life, are becoming the focus of criticism.

  5. 44. The battle against sepsis : exploring the genotypic diversity of pseudomonas and proteus clinical isolates

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Suud Ahmed; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sepsis is a dangerous and potentially fatal condition that has a mysterious origin, underscoring the significance of prompt and accurate diagnosis and treatment. Bacterial whole-genome sequencing, which is widely used in clinical microbiology, stands at the forefront of sequencing technologies, particularly to combat sepsis. READ MORE

  6. 45. Is the Expression of Hemolysin Co-regulated Protein (Hcp) Associated with Serum Resistance in Aggregatibacter aphrophilus?

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Tandläkarutbildning

    Author : Clara Settlin; Selva Hot; [2023]
    Keywords : Aggregatibacter aphrophilus; hcp; T6SS; serum resistance;

    Abstract : Abstract  Aggregatibacter aphrophilus, a Gram negative bacterium, found in the oral cavity, causing cerebral abscesses and infective endocarditis, has been shown to be serum resistant in previous studies. Bacterial secretion systems are important for bacteria as they transfer virulence factors into other bacteria or host cells as an attack. A. READ MORE
