Varannan fisk som äts av människor är odlad. De odlade fiskarna äter fiskfoder som till största delen består av fiskmjöl. Fiskmjöl är en bra proteinkälla i fiskarnas mat, men bidrar till överfiske och rubbar havens ekosystem. Därför har en annan proteinkälla undersökts, nämligen bakterien Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus. Denna bakterie har högt proteininnehåll och kan odlas i labb genom att mEvery second fish consumed by humans today is produced in aquaculture, and the main protein source in the fish feed is fishmeal. For every farmed salmonid, 1.8 fish are used in that fish’s feed. Hence, there is a great need of alternative protein sources to make aquaculture sustainable. The bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus, used experimentally for hydrogen production, has a protein c

Några av de viktigaste molekylära strukturerna för livet på jorden är polymerer. Några exempel på dessa är deoxyribonukleinsyror (DNA) som bär den genetiska informationen nödvändig för att en organisk ska kunna utvecklas och fungera, och proteiner som utför andra komplexa och livsnödvändiga funktioner och utgör maskineriet för till exempel cellandning och ämnesomsättning. Det som DNA, proteiner ocThe co-assembly and temperature-dependent phase behavior of dilute aqueous solutions of a thermoresponsive cationic diblock copolymer and oppositely charged bile salts, sodium deoxycholate and sodium glycodexoycholate, or sodium dodecyl sulphate at different charge fractions in terms of negative charge were investigated by static- and dynamic light scattering (SLS/DLS), differential scanning calor

Earlier studies have shown that when assessing explanations of psychological phenomena, there is a bias for explanations including references to neuroscience, even when these references contain logically irrelevant information (Fernandez-Duque, Evans, Christian & Hodges, 2015; M inahan & Siedlecki, 2016; Weisberg, Keil, Goodstein, Rawson and Gray, 2008; Weisberg, Taylor & Hopkins, 2015

Är stallgödsling anpassad efter jordens fosforhalt en bra åtgärd för att motverka fosforläckage? Vattenmyndigheternas i Sverige har lagt fram ett förslag att förbjuda stallgödsling på åkermark, baserat på jordens fosforhalt, för att förhindra fosforläckage. Fosfor är ett viktigt näringsämne för jordbruksnäringen, men kan även orsaka skador i vattensystem. Resultatet visar att jordar med hög fosfoThe Swedish Water Authorities have proposed a measure to reduce phosphorus losses by restricting manure application on soils with high levels of plant available phosphorus.
