  1. 16. Production of rubber from dandelion - a proof of concept for a new method of cultivation

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Författare :Lotta Oscarsson; [2015]
    Nyckelord :biotechnology; plants; natural rubber; gene technology; biology; Molecular; dandelion; cultivation; bioreactor; plant culture; Technology and Engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Natural rubber is a biopolymer that is invaluable in our society. It is used in medical devices, tires, engines and many other consumer products, and so far no synthetic substance has been able to compete with its properties. Today, all natural rubber comes from the rubber tree, mainly grown in southeast Asia. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Växter som en källa till järn i maten

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Författare :Karoline Söderberg Breivik; [2013]
    Nyckelord :järn; växter; livsmedel; iron; plants; plant foods;

    Sammanfattning : På senare tid har konsumenter visat ett ökat intresse för näringsmässig kvalitet som innehåll av vitaminer, mineraler och bioaktiva ämnen hos frukt och grönsaker. Samtidigt är järnbrist den vanligaste och mest utbredda typen av näringsbrist globalt, även i industrialiserade länder. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Antibiotic resistance associated with bacteria in irrigation water : a case study of irrigation ponds in Southern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Plant Breeding and Biotechnology (until 121231)

    Författare :Maria Grudén; [2013]
    Nyckelord :Animal husbandry; Enterobacteriaceae; ESBL; Etest; exogenous isolation; irrigation water; hygiene; standards in water; Water quality;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of this project was to characterize the occurrence of ESBL-­‐producing bacteria in two irrigation water ponds in Southern Sweden. Samples were taken from two ponds nearby each other, from which analyses were made based on levels of community and individual isolates. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Programmed cell death in the moss Physcomitrella patens : studying the role of metacaspases in archegonia development through gene knockout by homologous recombination

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Biology and Forest Genetics (until 131231)

    Författare :Karl Persson; [2012]
    Nyckelord :Gene technology; Biotechnology; Knockout; Reverse genetics; Homologous recombination; Cloning; Physcomitrella patens; Archegonia; Programmed cell death; metacaspases;

    Sammanfattning : The knowledge of programmed cell death (PCD) in plants is limited. The gene family of caspases in animals is known to be important for the execution of PCD. Putative homologues to caspases have been found in plants and are referred to as metacaspases. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Evaluation of a new type of temporaryimmersion system (TIS) bioreactors for plantmicropropagation

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, SLU/Plant Breeding and Biotechnology (until 121231)

    Författare :Johanna Persson; [2012]
    Nyckelord :bioreactor; conductivity; Digitalis; Echinacea; liquid medium; mass propagation; medium analyzes; micropropagation; nutrients; pH; Rubus; semi-automatic; sugars; temporary immersion system;

    Sammanfattning : Micropropagation has been revealed to be an efficient propagation method for production of large quantities of true to type and disease free plants, while traditional methods of micropropagation on solid medium are limited in commercial production due to high labor costs. Bioreactor production in liquid medium has therefore been studied and tested in recent years, but there are still no appropriate types of bioreactors until now. LÄS MER
