11. Enterococcal distribution and responses toenvironmental waters
Sammanfattning : The release of antibiotics and pharmaceuticals into environmental waters contribute to the increasing risk of antibiotic resistant bacteria. The spread of antibiotic resistant bacteria in the environment increases the health risks to the community. Enterococci are fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) in aquatic environments for determining water quality. LÄS MER
12. Fungal Lectins. Molecular structure and function of a member of a novel lectin family
Sammanfattning : Lectins defined as non-enzyme, non-immunoglobulin carbohydrate binding proteins, have been found in a wide variety of viruses, bacteria, fungi, plants and animals. Although lectins have been purified from more than 60 different species of fungi, the structure and biological functions of these proteins are not well known. LÄS MER
13. Zooplankton response to cyanotoxins
Sammanfattning : Mass development of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) is common in many lakes and coastal waters worldwide as a result of an increased nutrient loading. These blooms of cyanobacteria are undesirable for several reasons; thick mats of algae and unpleasant odour reduces the recreational values, bad taste reduces the quality of drinking water and the potent toxins produced by some species of cyanobacteria endanger human health.

15. Collaborating with Gertrude Stein : Media ecologies, reception, poetics
Sammanfattning : The reception of the American avant-garde poet, playwright, art collector and salon hostess Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) has to a wide extent taken place in an aesthetic context prior to her work’s academic and hermeneutic canonization. This thesis is in part a mapping of this transmedia reception as it is played out in a North American context in the period from her death and until today, and in part an account of Stein’s particular collaborative poetics, through which her work invites such a reception.
