1. Characterization and optimization of Rhodosporidium toruloides for production of lipids
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : Oleaginous microorganisms provide an opportunity to produce oils without the use of arable land for cultivation of oil-containing plants. Oleaginous microorganisms are also capable of storing products of pharmaceutical interest alongside storing polymers, which could open new opportunities in the bioplastic industry. LÄS MER
2. Engineering Rhodosporidium toruloides for the production of polyhydroxybutyrate
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologiSammanfattning : The increased use of plastics has become an environmental problem where plastics, due to the slow degradation, accumulate in the oceans and landfills. Although plastics are a very cheap and useful material with desirable properties and a wide variety of applications, they are primarily made from petroleum-based resources which are non-renewable and of fossil origin.

3. Growth of filamentous fungi in pure olive oil : a fundamental study for application to vegetable oil-derived waste streams
Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiSammanfattning : Vegetable oil is more difficult to degrade by microorganisms in comparison to carbohydrates and protein. Thus, it creates serious environmental and health concerns if oil-derived waste streams produced by restaurants and industries remain untreated. LÄS MER
4. Evaluation of the antagonistic activity of Rhodotorula babjevae and its extracellular compounds towards postharvest pathogens
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular SciencesSammanfattning : The growing population ultimately puts pressure on the food industry to become more effi-cient and to reduce postharvest food waste. The leading method of reducing postharvest decay of fruits has been through fungicide application. LÄS MER
5. Establishing a predictive model for total fat content in Lipomyces starkeyi CBS 1807 by FT-NIR analysis
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular SciencesSammanfattning : This study investigates the potential of using near- infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIR) to establish a predictive model for total fat content in the oleaginous yeast Lipomyces strakeyi CBS 1807. FT-NIR- based quantification allows for rapid lipid determination compared to traditional extraction methods. LÄS MER
