1. Beyond carbon-limitation : A re-evaluation of the ecological role of photorespiration and direct oxygen photoreduction in seagrasses
Sammanfattning : Seagrasses living in shallow coastal waters are regularly subjected to changes in environmental conditions including the two essential factors for photosynthesis: dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and irradiance. This thesis focuses on the photosynthetic responses of seagrasses to carbon limitation induced by community metabolism and/or high light intensities. LÄS MER
2. Metabolic analysis of shikimic acid producing Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : Shikimic acid production using recombinant E.coli has been developed during the past 15 years due to the increased demand of this product, primarily as a starting material for the anti-influensa medicine Tamiflu?. A detailed metabolic analysis of a shikimic acid producing E. LÄS MER
3. Nutrient Limitation of Bacterial Growth in Soil
Sammanfattning : Lack of carbon has been assumed to be the most common limiting factor for bacterial growth in soil, although there are reports of limitation by nitrogen and phosphorus. I have studied nutrient limitation of bacterial growth in soil using a novel technique, where thymidine or leucine incorporation is used to detect changes in growth rates after adding nutrients.

4. Limitations and possibilities for microbial degradation of organic contaminants in aquifers
Sammanfattning : Many factors can influence the rate of microbial degradation of organic contaminants in aquifers. Some of these factors, e.g. LÄS MER
5. On-line Monitoring Techniques for the Study of Yeast Physiology. Some Studies on the Yeasts Pichia stipitis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Sammanfattning : On-line monitoring techniques have been used with the goal of optimizing fermentation processes involving the yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's yeast) and Pichia stipitis (a xylose fermenting yeast), and a highly equipped fermentor system has been developed for these studies. The fed-batch growth of S. LÄS MER
