1. 1. Early land plant spores from the Paleozoic of Sweden – taxonomy, stratigraphy and paleoenvironments

   Författare :Kristina Mehlqvist; Berggrundsgeologi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Spores; early land plants; taxonomy; stratigraphy; biostratigraphy; Silurian;

   Sammanfattning : The Silurian through earliest Devonian, between ca 444 and 412 million years ago, was characterized by significant changes in global climate and environment. At that time, plants and animals had begun to expand the colonization of previous relatively desolate terrestrial landscape. LÄS MER

3. 2. Buellia species with pluriseptate spores and the Physciaceae (Lecanorales, Ascomycotina) : Taxonomic, phylogenetic and ultrastructural studies

   Författare :Anders Nordin; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Buellia; Diplotomma; phylogenetic analysis; pluriseptate spores; Physciaceae; taxonomy; ultrastructure; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; systematisk botanik; Systematic Botany;

   Sammanfattning : This dissertation is primarily focused on the Buellia species with pluriseptate spores, often referred to the section or genus Diplotomma, and secondarily on the Physciaceae. An ultrastructural study at family level gives new information on spore characters. LÄS MER

4. 3. Bacillus Cereus. Adhesion Ability to Biological and Non-Biological Surfaces, Enterotoxins, Characterization

   Författare :Annika Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; characterization; Bacillus cereus; spores; adhesion; enterotoxin;

   Sammanfattning : The organism investigated in this thesis was Bacillus cereus, which is important as a food spoilage organism and as a pathogen. The adhesion of endospores to and the removal of endospores from siliconized glass surfaces were investigated to increase the knowledge of adhesion mechanisms and to improve the removal of endospores from surfaces.

5. 4. Adhesion Mechanisms of Bacterial Spores to Solid Surfaces

   Författare :Ulrika Husmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The initial adhesion of different Bacillus spores to solid surfaces was investigated. By changing environmental parameters and studying the subsequent adhesion, conclusions have been drawn concerning the different mechanisms responsible for adhesion. Bacillus species are common microorganisms and in food industry they are common food spoilers. LÄS MER

7. 5. KNOW YOUR ENEMY : Characterizing Pathogenic Biomaterials Using Laser Tweezers

   Författare :Tobias Dahlberg; Magnus Andersson; Krister Wiklund; Mikael Sjödahl; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optical Tweezers; Laser Tweezers; Raman Spectroscopy; Bacterial Adhesion; Biophysics; Pili; Bacterial Spores; Endospores; Oocysts; Cryptosporidium; Optics; biology; biologi; fysik; Physics;

   Sammanfattning : Diseases caused by pathogenic agents such as bacteria and viruses result in devastating costs on personal and societal levels. However, it is not just the emergence of new diseases that is problematic. Antibiotic resistance among bacteria makes uncomplicated infections difficult and lethal. LÄS MER
