BB2410 Molekylär bioteknik för nanoteknologi 7,5 hp

The course aims at presenting the state-of-art in interactions between nanotechnology and biotechnology at the scientific frontier. This course will teach the methods which forms the basis for molecular biotechnology within the range of nanoscience applications

After successful completion of the course, the students should be able to:

• Understand the basic concept in molecular biology
• Capable to define recombinant DNA technology
• Give an example and explain the synthesis of important industrial products
• Explain the potential application of molecular techniques in diagnostics and therapeutics
• Present the result of the laboratory exercise  as written report

Admittance to a Masters programme at KTH with some basic background in chemistry, physics and biology

Good knowledge about physics and chemistry courses according to the study plan, basic knowledge in living systems or corresponding background.

Lecture notes and reference literature

När kurs inte längre ges har student möjlighet att examineras under ytterligare två läsår.

• LAB1 - Laboration, 1,5 hp, betygsskala: P, F
• SEM1 - Seminarium, 1,5 hp, betygsskala: P, F
• TEN1 - Skriftlig tentamen, 4,5 hp, betygsskala: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Examinator beslutar, baserat på rekommendation från KTH:s handläggare av stöd till studenter med funktionsnedsättning, om eventuell anpassad examination för studenter med dokumenterad, varaktig funktionsnedsättning.

Examinator får medge annan examinationsform vid omexamination av enstaka studenter.

A written examination (TEN1; 3cr) covers the lecture course. To pass the course it is necessary to pass the tutorial and lab exercise (ASS; 1cr, Lab;1cr). Further requirements about the examination and requirements are given at the course start.
