  1. 1. The production of recombinant 6LZE_A and NS2B-NS3 in E. coli

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

    Author : Raluca Svensson; [2024]
    Keywords : coronavirus; dengue; protease; pandemic; SARS-Cov-2; DENV; viral replication; proteins; Escherichia coli; DL-BAPNA; computational modeling; recombinant protein production; biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Even though the first coronavirus pandemic was registered in 1965, SARS-CoV-2 was better acknowledged when it caused the worldwide pandemic in 2019 in which millions of individuals lost their lives. Due to its facile way of spreading from one individual to another, the number of infected cases has gone up to more than 750 million to this day. READ MORE

  2. 2. Developing a protocol for 3D-printable bioink from decellularised porcine tissue

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Vendela Sandin; [2024]
    Keywords : Scaffold; Extracellular matrix; ECM; Bioink; Bioprinting; Collagen; Pharmaceutical technology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : T-cell administration via a scaffold is a promising tool for treatment of inoperable solid tumours. Traditional scaffold materials lack the complexity of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that cells normally grow in. An alternative is to instead use decellularised ECM (dECM) from biological tissue to create the scaffold. READ MORE

  3. 3. Menstrual Blood, Sweat and Tears: A Qualitative Study on Women’s Menstrual Health Management at Workplace Settings in Maputo, Mozambique

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Ellinor Berglund; [2023]
    Keywords : menstrual health management; Mozambique; decent work; gender equality; socio-ecological model of health.; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Equal participation in safe and decent work is a crucial factor for achieving gender equality. Despite this, gender-based obstacles remain as workplaces often fail to ensure the human rights, health, and general wellbeing of their employees, with menstrual health being an especially neglected aspect of the gendered workplace experience.

  4. 4. 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.

  5. 5. Pseudomonas aeruginosa gene expression analysis using pangenome and PAO1 reference genomes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Yi Su; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Development in sequencing technologies has made the analyses of genetic material much more accessible. Processing sequenced data for an accurate analysis comes with its challenges, especially with the studies in microbial in clinical in vivo samples where difficulties in the collection of these samples for sequencing could lower the quality and contamination from the human host which might affect the accuracy of downstream analysis.
