Characterization of cellulases involved in a novel cellulolytic mechanism linked to the Bacteroidetes Type IX Secretion System
(Master thesis, 2017)Lignocellulose is the most abundant biomass on earth and has a great potential as a source for sustainable production of valuable chemicals and biofuels. Today’s depletion of fossil fuel reserves and pollution from their ... -
Characterization of cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli from Norwegian broiler production
(Master thesis, 2018)Recently, extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli with a new genotype (blaCTX-M-1) emerged in the Norwegian broiler production pyramid. Occurrence of ESBL-producing bacteria such as E. coli is a global ... -
Characterization of conjugative plasmids in the gut microbiota from a preterm twin pair
(Master thesis, 2017)The increasing spread of antibiotic resistance genes is becoming one of the most challenging issues for human health worldwide. The human gut holds a very high density of bacteria, which allows high rates of gene transmissions ... -
Characterization of cytostatic drug responses and signaling aberrations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
(Master thesis, 2016-08-09)Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is a heterogeneous disease with variable clinical courses. The disease is incurable, but a third to half of the patients may never need treatment. For those who need treatment, the options ... -
Characterization of Escherichia coli AlkB homologue 1
(Master thesis, 2010-12-23)The DNA molecule is exposed to alkylating agents produced endogenously and in the environment. Cells have therefore developed several responses to alkylating damage including direct repair by oxidative demethylation. The ... -
Characterization of fatty acids in marine macroalgae by GC-MS
(Master thesis, 2019)The main objective of the study was to identify and quantify the fatty acids present in three distinct lipid fractions, namely neutral lipids, free fatty acids and polar lipids, in the macroalgae; Alaria esculenta, Saccharina ... -
Characterization of fecal lactic acid bacteria isolated from healthy Ethiopian infants : bacteriocin production and antibiotic suscepebility
(PhD Thesis;2011:55, Doctoral thesis, 2011)In this thesis lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from fecal samples of healthy Ethiopian infants, identified to species level, screened for bacteriocin production and tested for antibiotic susceptibility. Enterococci ... -
Characterization of heteropathogenic and multidrugresistant (MDR) bacterial isolates from clinical and environmental sources using combined nanopore and next-generation sequencing technologies
(Doctoral thesis, 2020)Escherichia coli (E. coli) are usually harmless commensals that colonize the gastrointestinal tract of humans and other warm-blooded mammals. However, pathogenic counterparts have acquired virulence associated genes (VAGs) ... -
Characterization of immune cells in non-small cell lung cancer
(Master thesis, 2015-11-02)Lung cancer is the fourth most prevalent cancer in Norway, holding first place in mortality rate. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the most frequent type, representing about 85% of all lung cancer patients. Presently, ... -
Characterization of Lactic Acid Bacteria from infants gut with antimicrobial activity against Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG
(Master thesis, 2018)There are major individual differences in how the probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) colonizes the intestine of infants. Understanding these differences will be of great importance in relation to the use of ... -
Characterization of Lactococcus garvieae from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in Spain and Turkey
(Master thesis, 2019)Lactococcus garvieae is an emerging pathogen that causes mortalities in various farmed fish species, resulting in significant economic losses in aquaculture worldwide. The Gram-positive bacteria is pathogenic to both ... -
Characterization of organic art materials by GC-MS
(Master thesis, 2019)Background: In conservation of old paintings, knowing the composition of the paint binder is of great importance. Some conservation techniques can be damaging to the paintings when it is applied to the wrong kind of paint. ... -
Characterization of quinolone resistant Escherichia coli from broilers with focus on plasmidmediated quinolone resistance
(Master thesis, 2018)Widespread use of antimicrobial agents has generated antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among bacteria. The occurrence of AMR in Norwegian broiler production is low in a European and a global perspective and this is probably ... -
Characterization of signalling networks in ovarian cancer cells
(Master thesis, 2014-08-06)Ovarian cancer is one of the most lethal gynaecological diseases worldwide, and in Norway approximately 500 women die from this disease every year. Women with ovarian cancer often experience vague symptoms that can be ... -
Characterization of single cells from breast tumors with mutations implicated in treatment response
(Master thesis, 2023)Breast cancer has high tumor heterogeneity which can be challenging for individual patients. It is of importance to characterize the mutations in the tumors of breast cancer patients that affect the eradication of the ... -
