  2. 1. Unravelling protein stability and aggregation

    Author : Tanja Weiffert; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein stability; protein aggregation; amyloid beta peptide; protein stabilization; split GFP; monellin; secretagogin; ; aggregation kinetics; toxicity; aggregation mechanism; coaggregation;

    Abstract : Proteins are complex macromolecules that are fundamental to all living species. The stability of proteins are governed by non-covalent forces within the protein and between the protein and its surrounding environment. READ MORE

  4. 2. Modeling Antibody Aggregation in Downstream Processing

    Author : Frida Ojala; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Antibody; Aggregation; Downstream processing; Size exclusion chromatography; Reversible reaction model; General rate model;

    Abstract : Antibodies are part of the immune system where their purpose is to recognize and neutralize foreign species such as viruses and bacteria, thus preventing and curing infections. The trend of using antibodies in the treatment of, for example, cancer is increasing. READ MORE

  5. 3. Hyperoxia avoidance and aggregation behavior in C. elegans

    Author : Annelie Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; c. elegans; aggregation;

    Abstract : Living in the soil, C. elegans can move in three dimensions in search for food. To navigate, it partly uses oxygen levels as a description of its habitat. Oxygen tension may indicate presence of microbial food and location with respect to the surface, where oxygen is 21%. READ MORE

  6. 4. Micro-by-micro interactions : Aggregation dynamics, biofilms, and ecotoxicological impacts of suspended solids

    Author : Sophia Reichelt; Elena Gorokhova; Rehab El Shehawy; Julien Gigault; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; suspended solids; microplastics; bacteria; biofilm; aggregation; ecotoxicology; microalgae; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Increasing concerns arise regarding the environmental risk of microplastics (MP) and their interactions with biota, prompting numerous effect studies. However, current ecotoxicology methods fall short when it comes to assessing MP impacts. READ MORE

  7. 5. Food Webs, Models and Species Extinctions in a Stochastic Environment

    Author : Patrik Karlsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ekologi; Ecology; functional redundancy; trophospecies; species aggregation; environmental stochasticity; interaction strength; spectral colour; food web structure; food webs; extinction risk;

    Abstract : In light of the current global mass extinction of species, ecologists are facing great challenges. In order to reverse the path towards additional extinctions early warning systems to guide management actions need to be developed. READ MORE
