  1. 6. The Molecular Diversity and Biogeography of Tardigrades

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Irina Schuman; [2017]
    Keywords : molecular diversity; biogeography; tadrigrades; tardigrada;

    Abstract : Tardigrades can handle extreme conditions such as heat, cold and drought, thanks to a process called cryptobiosis which can be found in a limited amount of taxa on Earth. More knowledge about such animals may help us to understand the potential and limitations of life both on Earth and possibly in space. READ MORE

  3. 7. Isolating microorganisms from marine and marine-associated samples : a targeted search for novel natural antibiotics

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Microbiology

    Author : Tua Lilja; [2013]
    Keywords : antibiotics; natural products; marine microorganisms; isolation methods; actinomycetes; rare actinomycetes; whole-cell screening; antimicrobials; antibiotic resistance;

    Abstract : The search for antibiotic compounds from the natural environment has been going on for seven decades, ever since penicillin entered the market and antibiotic treatments became routine. The evolutionary pressure put on the pathogenic microorganisms induced a rapid spreading of naturally occurring resistance genes, leaving only the option of finding new antibiotics to treat the resistant pathogens.

  4. 8. Microbial Diversity in Raw and Pasteurized Milk with Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (T-RFLP)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Sofia Svenningsson; [2012]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Abstract In this thesis, a molecular PCR-based method was used to study the bacterial diversity in milk. The aim was to compare the microbiota of traditionally pasteurized milk with milk treated with a novel pasteurization technique, using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP).

  5. 9. Holocene relative sea-level changes in the Tasiusaq area, southern Greenland, with focus on the Ta4 basin

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Daniel Fredh; [2008]
    Keywords : sea-level changes; isolation basin; deglaciation; Tasiusaq; Bredefjord; southern Greenland; Holocene; havsnivåförändringar; isolation; Bredefjorden; södra Grönland; holocen; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Endast ett fåtal observationer har tidigare gjorts från inre delen av Bredefjorden i södra Grönland. I denna studie presenteras en ny strandförskjutningskurva från området kring Tasiusaq baserad i huvudsak på sedimentanalyser från en marin bassäng. READ MORE

  6. 10. Holocene relative sea-level changes in the Tasiusaq area, southern Greenland, with focus on the Ta1 and Ta3 basins

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Linda Randsalu; [2008]
    Keywords : isostasi; havsnivåförändringar; södra Grönland; Holocen; isoleringslagerföljder; Greenland Ice Sheet; isostasy; sea-level changes; southern Greenland; isolation sequences; Holocene; grönländska inlandsisen; geology; physical geography; geologi; naturgeografi; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Results from an investigation of relative sea-level changes from c. 11,000 cal. yr BP to the present in the Tasiusaq area, Inner Bredefjord, southwest Greenland, are presented in this thesis. Isolation sequences from two small lakes have been identified using stratigraphic analyses, XRF-scanning, loss on ignition and macrofossil analyses. READ MORE
