1. Assessment of promoter regulation in Pseudomonas putida using GFP and flow cytometry
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologiSammanfattning : Lignin is found in all biomass and is an abundant natural source of aromatic compounds. It has the potential to serve as a renewable raw material for a variety of chemicals currently derived from fossil fuel sources such as muconic acid, an important platform chemical. Kraft lignin is a waste stream from the pulp and paper 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. Assessment of the Fluorescent Activities of Different Fluorescent Proteins for Potential Use as Biosensors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologiSammanfattning : Development of genetically modified microorganisms such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae for use as microbial cell factories to produce fine and bulk chemicals has lately proceeded very rapidly, much thanks to new gene editing methods based on a CRISPR/Cas9 system adapted from bacteria which increases the rate of genetic engineering. However, development of methods which enable fast and simple screening of the best performing strains with specific sought-after characteristics is not advancing at the same pace. LÄS MER
4. De första Nösundsborna : en studie av hur västra Orust befolkades
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historiaSammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether western Orust was continuously inhabited during the Stone Age and the Bronze Age. Using reports from the archaeological excavations carried out in Nösund in western Orust as a basis, I discuss what conclusions can be drawn, relating, when possible, the findings to what we, thanks to analyzes of fossil DNA made in recent years, now know about ancient peoples’ descent.

5. Dissection of domain function for tandem AP2 plant transcription factors
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/BeräkningskemiSammanfattning : Oils are some of the most energy dense compounds produced in nature and play a vital role in society as a source of food, energy and as raw material in many chemical processes. Plant produced oils (triacylglycerols) are a key asset in the transition away from fossil oils. LÄS MER
