  5. 4. In search of a biosensor for DNT detection : Studies of inducer response and specificity of DntR

    Författare :Rosa Lönneborg; Peter Brzezinski; Ray Dixon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DntR; transcriptional regulation; gfp; nitro-aromatic compounds; LysR family; LTTR; TNT; DNT; FACS; directed evolution; random mutagenesis; recombination; structure determination; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The primary aim of the work presented in this thesis was to change the inducer specificity of the DntR protein in order to improve the response to DNT. The long-term goal is to use this protein in a biosensor for DNT, a signature compound for detection of the explosive TNT. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Decision Support for Emergency Response to Multiple Natural Hazards : CHALLENGES AND NEEDS

    Författare :Viktor Sköld Gustafsson; Tobias Andersson Granberg; Mattias Hjerpe; Martin Waldemarsson; Margaret Mcnamee; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Global warming exceeding 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels will very likely lead to unavoidable increases of several climate hazards in the coming decades. Climate change phenomena can increase the risk of several extreme weather events, leading to risks of what is commonly considered as natural hazards, for instance landslides and forest fires. LÄS MER
