  1. 1. Biokinetic Characterization of Methane Oxidizing Microbiomes Co-metabolizing Trace Organic Chemicals

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Hugo Möller; [2024]
    Keywords : Methanotrophs; organic micropollutants; co-metabolism; biodegradation; applied microbiology; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The presence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in wastewater effluents is concerning, as they pose a threat to human and aquatic health. Biodegradation via methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) is an attractive option, as the method is cheap and effective. MOB can co-metabolize a variety of substrates, there among organic micropollutants.

  3. 2. SOIL GROSS NITROGEN MINERALISATION AND FOREST GROWTH IN FOUR HEMIBOREAL FOREST STANDS IN SOUTHWEST SWEDEN

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Linnéa Eriksson; [2023-04-20]
    Keywords : soil C:N; forest production; 15N isotope dilution; gross N mineralisation; ammonium; soil carbon; soil nitrogen; root exudates; stoichiometric decomposition; boreal forests; priming; microbial C limitation;

    Abstract : Boreal and temperate forests together make up the largest terrestrial net C sink in the world. They take up carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and store it in plant biomass and soil as they grow, making them crucial in mitigating global climate change. READ MORE

  4. 3. How do rainfall patterns change microbial induced carbon dynamics in soil?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Maria João Silva; [2023]
    Keywords : drying and rewetting; bacterial growth; fungal growth; annual crops; perennial crops; soil depth; climate change; biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Climate change is changing the precipitation patterns around the globe, leading to more extreme weather events like severe drought and heavy rainfalls. These events are intrinsically related to soil moisture fluctuations, which strongly modulates carbon fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems. READ MORE

  5. 4. Analyzing the Influence of Synthetic andAugmented Data on Segmentation Model

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Alex Peschel; [2023]
    Keywords : Artificial Intelligence; Microorganisms; Segmentation; Synthesizing; Augmentation;

    Abstract : The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years, thanks to the numerous applications related to speech recognition, natural language processing, and computer vision. However, one of the challenges facing AI is the requirement for large amounts of energy, time, and data to be effective and accurate. READ MORE

  6. 5. Method development of flow cytometry analysis of yeast and lactic acid bacteria viability for alcohol fermentation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Megha Komahan; [2023]
    Keywords : Flow cytometry; yeast; lactic acid bacteria; fermentation; cell viability; applied microbiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The usage of yeast in conventional brewing techniques involving alcoholic fermentation is an age-old process. Analyzing the viability and obtaining physiological information regarding the microbial diversity of the fermentation samples plays a pivotal role in obtaining real-time information as well as developing a more efficient process design.
