  1. 21. Sialic acids derivatised at C-4 as ligands for bacterial SSS transport proteins

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes; Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Klara Hammarstrand; [2017]
    Keywords : KOK820 organic chemistry; medicinal chemistry; drug development; method development; antibiotics; organic synthesis; Chemistry;

    Abstract : This master thesis project focuses on establishing a synthetic method with the prospect of developing new antibacterial agents. Due to the increment of resistant strains of bacteria throughout the world, this area of research is well motivated. READ MORE

  2. 22. Analysis and Implementation of an Age Structured Model of the Cell Cycle

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Anna Broms; [2017]
    Keywords : age structured model; cell cycle; cell population dynamics; nonlinear integral equations; Romberg s method; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : In an age-structured model originating from cancer research, the cell cycle is divided into two phases: Phase 1 of variable length, consisting of the biologically so called G1 phase, and Phase 2 of fixed length, consisting of the so called S, G2 and M phases. A system of nonlinear PDEs along with initial and boundary data describes the number densities of cells in the two phases, depending on time and age (where age is the time spent in a phase).

  3. 23. Cell Acquisition and Synchronization for Unlicensed NB-IoT

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikationssystem

    Author : Eskil Jörgensen; [2017]
    Keywords : Narrowband Internet-of-Things; NB-IoT; unlicensed; cell search; cell acquisition; synchronization; artificial fast fading; binary sequences; peak sidelobe level;

    Abstract : Narrowband Internet-of-Things (NB-IoT) is a new wireless technology designed to support cellular networks with wide coverage for a massive number of very cheap low power user devices. Studies have been initiated for deployment of NB-IoT in unlicensed frequency bands, some of which demand the use of a frequency-hopping scheme with a short channel dwell time. READ MORE

  4. 24. Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid production by microalgae

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Food Science

    Author : Ida Collinius; [2016]
    Keywords : micro algae; LC-PUFA; eicosanoids;

    Abstract : Long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) are essential to humans and needs to be consumed through the diet instead of production in the body. LC-PUFAs are in this report be categorized into omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. The aim of this study was to focus on LC-PUFAs that can be produced by species of microalgae of commercial interests.

  5. 25. Identification of Mutations in Genes Regulating Culm Length in Malting Barley

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Emma Thorell; [2016]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Lodging, the tendency in barley to lie down on the ground when exposed to hail and heavy fertilising, is one of the most important traits that barley breeding is trying to remove from the barley cultivars. This may be an even greater challenge when future climate changes may lead to more extreme weather leading to more severe storms with heavy rain and hail. READ MORE
