  1. 1. OPTIMIZATION OF CLONE SELECTION PLATFORM FOR PRODUCTION OF RECOMBINANT PROTEINS

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

    Author : Basel Yousef; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background  Biologics are type of proteins that can be produced by expression in a foreign host for medical healthcare applications in humans. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are type of biologics that are designed to specifically bind to one target, with a purpose to inhibit a certain molecule that could be associated with a disease process.

  3. 2. Measuring bacterial metabolism and antibioticsusceptibility : using silicon nanowire field-effect transistor.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fasta tillståndets elektronik

    Author : George Alhoush; [2024]
    Keywords : Silicon nanowire field effective transistor; SiNWFET; Ion-selective filed effect transistor; ISFET; Antibiotic susceptibility test; AST; Measuring bacterial metabolism using microchip;

    Abstract : Antimicrobial resistance is considered by many prominent researcher and scientist as a profound global health crisis that us humans must face in the next decade. It is threatening the effectiveness of these once-reliable weapons against bacterial infections and leaving us susceptible to pathogenic agents. READ MORE

  4. 3. EFFECT OF ENDOCRINE DISRUPTING MIXTURES AND CHEMICALS ON THE OXYGEN CONSUMPTION RATE OF ZEBRAFISH LARVAE

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Lieke van Iersel; [2022-08-08]
    Keywords : oxygen consumption; zebrafish larvae; respirometry; endocrine disrupting chemicals; mixture toxicity;

    Abstract : Chemicals affecting the endocrine system, so called endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDC’s), have been steadily increasing in the environment over the last 40 years. EDCs are harmful chemicals since they can act through multiple endocrine pathways, contain a wide spectrum of health effects that can be very persistent and can cause effects already at a low doses.

  5. 4. Toward prototyping metabolic pathways in cyanobacteria using cell extracts

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Amina Bensabra; [2022]
    Keywords : cyanobacteria; metabolic engineering; cell-free metabolic engineering; enzymes; sustainability; cyanobakterier; metabolisk genteknik; syntetisk biologi; enzymer; hållbar bioproduktion;

    Abstract : Cyanobakterier är intressanta mikroorganismer för produktion av biobränslen från solljus, vatten och atmosfärisk koldioxid och anses därför vara potentiella mikrobiella cellfabriker. Men på grund av långsam tillväxt och låg produktion är genteknologi processen intensiv och tidskrävande för cyanobakterier. READ MORE

  6. 5. Genetically modified tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants for an increased production of wax esters

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Linn Nilsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Wax esters; metabolic engineering; nicotiana tabacum; fatty acid reductase; phytyl ester synthase;

    Abstract : Wax esters (WE) are naturally occurring lipids consisting of a fatty acid bound to a fatty alcohol with an ester bond. As an alternative to petrochemicals, plant-derived WE:s are of considerable commercial interest as lubricants, but have in recent years also received great attention for their potential as a starting material for bio-fuel production.
