Si informano le studentesse e gli studenti magistrali che è disponibile una tesi sperimentale dedicata allo studio di microfunghi antartici isolati da superfici contaminate da carburanti, campionate presso siti di stoccaggio e infrastrutture operative (pompe di benzina, serbatoi di mezzi, aree logistiche).
Obiettivo del progetto:
Il progetto mira a isolare e caratterizzare funghi capaci di degradare idrocarburi a basse temperature, anche in un ambiente estremo e altamente protetto come l’Antartide. Questi microrganismi rappresentano modelli unici per comprendere i meccanismi di adattamento al freddo e per sviluppare strategie sostenibili di bioremediation in ambienti polari.
Attività previste nel lavoro di tesi:
Isolamento e mantenimento in coltura di microfunghi antartici
Valutazione delle capacità metaboliche tramite saggi colturali
Studio della degradazione di miscele complesse di idrocarburi (olio motore esausto, benzina, gasolio)
Caratterizzazione molecolare mediante sequenziamento del genoma e del trascrittoma in diverse condizioni sperimentali (es. esposizione a differenti idrocarburi)
Confronto dei profili genetici e funzionali con ceppi affini isolati da ambienti non contaminati
Perché scegliere questa tesi?
La tesi offre un’esperienza fortemente interdisciplinare, integrando microbiologia, ecologia microbica, biotecnologie ambientali e genomica, con l’opportunità di lavorare su campioni unici provenienti da uno degli ambienti più estremi del pianeta.
