1. 1. Evaluation of Novel Probiotics Acting on Seaweed Biomass

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

   Author : Tushar Kaushik; [2021]
   Keywords : Seaweed; Alaria escuenta; Probiotics; Lactic acid bacteria; Biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Fermentation is a technique which has been employed for the preservation of food since time immemorial. With a growing population comes the challenge of providing accessible and nutritious food and at the same time adapting a sustainable approach to achieve the desired target. READ MORE

3. 2. Algae hydrocarbons designed for bio-based lubricants

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Elin Sjöhag; [2020]
   Keywords : Microalgae; macroalgae; lubricant; alginate; grease; Mikroalger; makroalger; smörjmedel; alginat; förtjockningsmedel;

   Abstract : Smörjmedel är en nödvändighet för maskiner för att minska slitage och energiförbrukning. Dock är över 95% av de använda smörjmedlen i dag fossilbaserade. Smörjmedel baserade på vegetabiliska oljor finns tillgängliga men har ofta en lägre oxidativ stabilitet och sämre lågtemperaturegenskaper än deras fossilbaserade motsvarigheter. READ MORE

4. 3. 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. 4. The life cycle and developmental phases of Cambrian-Ordovician organic-walled microfossils from Kolguev Island, Arctic Russia.

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Magdalena Pazio; [2016]
   Keywords : Saharidia fragilis; Prasinophyceae algae; life cycle; acritarchs; Saharidia fragilis; Prasinophyceae; livscykel; acritarch;

   Abstract : Light microscopy studies of collections of late Cambrian/Early Ordovician organic-walled microfossils, informally called acritarchs, provide the observations on phenotypic traits that are comparable to Modern microalgae and make possible recognition of various developmental stages in their complex life cycle. The exceptionally preserved Saharidia fragilis microfossils show the internal body within the vesicle and the formation of the fringe and pylome, the opening for releasing of the daughter cells from the phycoma-like cyst.

6. 5. Management of hydrogen sulfide in anaerobic digestion of enzyme pretreated marine macro-algae

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Salar Haghighatafshar; [2012]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Enzymatic pretreatment of algae – by means of cellulose degrading enzyme – was evaluated through lab-scale and pilot-scale experiments. The degradation efficiency of the enzyme depended on the initial physical quality of the algae. READ MORE
