1. Strain- and bioprocess-design strategies to increase production of (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate by Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : Microbial bio-based processes have emerged as an alternative to replace fossil-based processes for the production of fuels and chemicals. (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) is a medium-value chemical that has gained special attention as a precursor of antibiotics and vitamins, as a monomer for the synthesis of tailor-made polyesters and as a nutritional source for eukaryotic cells.

2. Engineering and applications of surface displayed tyrosinase on Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : The rise of biotechnology has provided a toolbox to deal with major challenges related to pollution and health. Microbial enzymes constitute powerful macromolecules with applications in environmental technology, and industrial and medical production. LÄS MER
3. Metabolic engineering and cultivation strategies for recombinant production of (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate
Sammanfattning : Metabolic engineering and process engineering are two powerful disciplines to design and improve microbial processes for sustainable production of an extensive number of compounds ranging from chemicals to pharmaceuticals. The aim of this thesis was to synergistically combine these two disciplines to improve the production of a model chemical called (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), which is a medium-value product with a stereocenter and two functional groups.

4. Engineering short-chain carboxylic-acid metabolism in the model microorganism Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : The ever-increasing concern about carbon dioxide emissions has created an urgent need to develop alternative methods to cheaply and renewably produce materials, chemicals and fuels. The biorefinery is uniquely suited to deliver these products from sustainable biomass. LÄS MER
5. Pharmaceuticals – improved removal from municipal wastewater and their occurrence in the Baltic Sea
Sammanfattning : Pharmaceutical residues are found in the environment due to extensive use in human and veterinary medicine. The active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) have a potential impact in non-target organisms. Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are not designed to remove APIs. LÄS MER
