  2. 6. Methods for cell line and protein engineering

    Author : Magnus Lundqvist; Johan Rockberg; Mathias Uhlén; Diethard Mattanovich; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell line development; therapeutic proteins; protein engineering; molecular cloning; mutagenesis; split-GFP; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Therapeutic proteins are becoming increasingly important. They are desirable, as they typically possess low adverse effects and higher specificity compared to the traditional, small molecule drugs. But they are also more complex and involve different intricate and expensive development and production processes. READ MORE

  4. 7. Cryogels Based on Crosslinked Cells as Green Biocatalysts for Biotechnology

    Author : Oksana Zaushitsyna; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cells; Crosslinkers; PVA PEI; Immobilization; Biocatalysts; Biobased chemicals; Biotransformation; stress tolerance;

    Abstract : Abstract Due to the finite nature of fossil resources and their environmental impact, such as greenhouse gases and climate change, the bio-based production of chemicals, materials and fuels is the subject of extensive research in industrial biotechnology. Biotransformation and fermentation are considered to be mild, “green” processes that make use of effective and reliable biocatalysts to provide bio-based chemicals. READ MORE

  5. 8. Continuous Ethanol Production from Dilute-acid Hydrolyzates: Detoxification and Fermentation Strategy

    Author : Ronny Purwadi; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HMF; serial bioreactor; immobilization; overliming; furfural; ethanol; continuous cultivation; S. cerevisiae; flocculating yeast; continuous detoxification; dilute-acid hydrolyzate;

    Abstract : The production of fuel ethanol from cellulosic biomass is of growing interest around the world. Lignocellulosic residuals can be used to produce transportation fuel, with the overall process having little net production of greenhouse gases. READ MORE

  6. 9. Studies of Glycosaminoglycan Interactions - Surface Immobilization Strategies and Biosensing Applications

    Author : Noomi Altgärde; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; glycosaminoglycans; interaction studies; growth factor; QCM-D; virus glycoprotein; SPR; surface immobilization;

    Abstract : Many important biological functions of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have been highlighted in research literature during recent years. GAGs often serve as function-bearing structural elements in the extracellular matrix (ECM), but are also constituents of the cell membrane. GAGs take part in various biological mechanisms, e.g. READ MORE

  7. 10. Phage–derived Endolysins as Potential Antibacterials : A Study of Peptidoglycan Hydrolase and Mycolylarabinogalactan Esterase Enzymes

    Author : Adel Abouhmad; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibacterial; Endolysin; Nanocrystals; Immobilization; Mycolylarabinogalactan esterase;

    Abstract : Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect bacteria, at the end of their life cycle produce a set of enzymes called endolysins to lyse host cells from within, facilitating the release of the viral progeny. Due to their lytic activity, endolysins have gained great interest as potential antibacterials targeting both Gram–positive and –negative bacteria, especially in the actual context of increasing rates of antibiotics resistance.
