The effect of lignin in light-driven photobiocatalytic LPMO reactions
(Master thesis, 2020)Our understanding of enzymatic hydrolysis of recalcitrant polysaccharides was revolutionized when lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) were discovered by Vaaje-Kolstad et al. in 2010. LPMOs are copper-dependent redox ... -
Probiotics : with a spesial focus in Animals
(Master thesis, 2019)Denne studien ble utført for å bedre forstå probiotika; hvordan det har blitt brukt fra gamle tider til dags dato. Gjennom gransking og gjennomgang av litteratur er det klart at probiotika ble brukt på mange områder siden ... -
Kefir and kefir grains : diversity of chemical properties and microflora
(PhD Thesis;2012:30, Doctoral thesis, 2012)Kefir grains contain bacteria and yeasts embedded in a protein and polysaccharide matrix. They constitute the primary starter culture for kefir, a fermented milk drink with a complex sensory profile containing high amounts ... -
Analyse av tensider i vaskemidler og tøymykner, med HPLC-UV
(Master thesis, 2022)Tensider er et samlenavn for overflateaktive stoffer som i økende grad blir anvendt ved mange industriområder som mat-, farmasøytisk og den kjemiske industrien. Blant disse har tensider en stor rolle innen husholdningsprodukter ... -
Mikrobiota, vekst og metabolismestudier av spontanfermenterte surdeiger av havre, bokhvete og quinoa
(Master thesis, 2022)De siste tiårene er det gjort utallige studier på tradisjonelle surdeiger av hvete og rug. Det er godt dokumentert at surdeigsfermentering blant annet øker holdbarheten, bedrer tekstur, senker den glykemiske indeksen, gir ... -
Undersøkelse av noen nye aspekter ved Hammick-reaksjonen
(Master thesis, 2022)Koblingsreaksjoner er en viktig gruppe med reaksjoner innen kjemi. Felles for reaksjonene er at fragmenter bindes sammen, gjerne ved hjelp av en metallisk katalysator. 2-pikolinsyre vil dekarboksylere spontant under ... -
Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in ambient air of Svalbard : concentrations, seasonal trends, sources, and transformation processes
(PhD Thesis;2021:80, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) are ubiquitous organic, gaseous, and particulate chemicals primarily emitted from incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, waste, and open biomass burning, including wildfires. Several ... -
Identifisering av resistensspredende bakterier i miljøet ved hjelp av kvalitative og kvantitative metoder
(Master thesis, 2022)Antibiotikaresistens har blitt en av de store helseutfordringene som verden står ovenfor. Stadig økende utvikling av resistente- samt multiresistente bakterier har medført økt behandlingssvikt. På grunn av denne negative ... -
Kvantifisering av mikro- og nanoplast i luft fra arbeidsmiljø
(Master thesis, 2022)Plast er i dag allestedsværende. I 2019 ble plastproduksjonen estimert til å ligge på 368 millioner metriske tonn. De siste årene har den toksikologiske nysgjerrigheten rundt de aller minste plastpartiklene, kategorisert ... -
Investigation of functional properties of traditional cultures in yoghurt production

Benchmarking of sequence-based machine learning methods for prediction of antibody polyreactivity
(Master thesis, 2022)Antibodies are of great importance as therapeutics and a prerequisite for their success is high specificity to a desired target. Some antibodies however, termed polyreactive, are able to recognize and react to a diverse ... -
Cost of resistance : stress tolerance and gene expression in wild type and mutant strains of Staphylococcus haemolyticus LMGT4071
(Master thesis, 2022)Several studies have shown that a bacteria’s development of resistance to an antimicrobial substance often comes with a cost related to their general fitness and adaptation to environmental changes. Further research is ... -
Isomeric separation of branched PFOS isomers : an application of C18 based stationary phases for liquid chromatographic separation
(Master thesis, 2022)Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) is a synthetic chemical that persist ubiquitously in waters and soils all over the world. PFOS has since its invention in the 1950 been one of the most produced per- and polyfluorinated ... -
The Hammick reaction : a comparison of traditional and microwave oven heating
(Master thesis, 2022)2-picolinic acid is a simple alkaloid that is produced in the human body. The compound has sparked interest in the medical field due to its relatively cheap production and the possibility of it being a precursor to new ... -
Syntese av karbazoler : et intermediat mot Clausenalansine A
(Master thesis, 2022)Karbazoler er heterosykliske alkaloider som har vist å inneha spennende, biologiske egenskaper. Blant disse er clausenalansine A isolert fra planten Clausena lansium. Forbindelsen og analoger av denne har vist seg å ha ... -
Investigating the proliferative effects of seven vegetable-derived protein hydrolysates on bovine skeletal muscle cells
(Master thesis, 2022)The cultured meat industry is rapidly growing and secured 1.38 billion$ in investments for 2021. Up to 95% of the total production cost is tied to the use of fetal bovine serum. Therefore, the most pressing issue for the ... -
