  2. 1. Sulphur-Utilizing Microorganisms in Biotechnological Applications - Rubber Recycling and Vanadium Reduction

    Author : Katarina Bredberg; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pyrococcus furiosus; Acidithiobacillus; microbial vanadium reduction; microbial detoxification; rubber recycling; devulcanization; Biotechnological desulphurization; waste rubber materials; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : Biotechnological processes offer environmentally friendly and sometimes cost-effective alternatives to traditional chemical and mechanical methods. It is important to take advantages of the opportunities these processes provide to fulfil the demands and expectations of a future environmentally sustainable society. READ MORE

  4. 2. Biotechnological treatment of chlorophenol-contaminated water

    Author : Hamid Zilouei; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; Miljöteknik; pollution control; Environmental technology; Cell-based biosensor; Fluorescence in situ hybridization; Bacterial community; Two-liquid phase partitioning bioreactor; Photolysis pretreatment; Biomonitoring; Fixed-biofilm reactors; Toxic organic pollutant; Biodegradation;

    Abstract : Widespread presence of toxic and persistent pollutants in the environment, even at low concentrations, causes risks of adverse effects to human health and the ecosystem. Biological methods for treatment of water streams and removal of persistent pollutants are of great interest due to their simplicity, low cost, and mild operational conditions without harmful by-products.

  5. 3. Functionalized protein nanomaterials and their biotechnological applications

    Author : Benjamin Schmuck; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : As the ribosomal synthesis of a nascent polypeptide progresses, the chain immediately undergoes folding into α-helical and β-strand secondary structure elements. While the protein matures, the polypeptide collapses into higher order constructs that ultimately form the native protein state. READ MORE

  6. 4. Electrodes and Electrokinetic Systems for Biotechnological Applications

    Author : Sara Nilsson; Nathaniel D Robinson; Fredrik Björefors; Bengt Danielsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Research in bioelectronics studies biological systems and materials in combination with electronic interfaces for the development of devices, e.g., for medical applications, drug and toxicity tests, and biotechnology in general. Neural implants and pacemakers are examples of products developed from this area of research. READ MORE

  7. 5. Selenocysteine in proteins : properties and biotechnological use

    Author : Linda Johansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Selenocysteine; recombinant selenoprotein production; thioredoxin reductase; enzymology; protein labeling; mite allergy; mouse model;

    Abstract : Selenocysteine (Sec), the 21st amino acid, exists in all kingdoms of life and has unique biochemical properties, such as high electrophilicity and low pKa. The highly increased reactivity of selenoenzymes compared to their sulfur-containing cysteine-dependent homologs is generally regarded as the evolutionary reason for having selenoproteins. READ MORE
