Hepatic responses to chronic exposure to hydrogen sulfide in post-smolt Atlantic salmon
(Master thesis, 2023)The research was performed in the liver of post-smolt Atlantic salmon with three concentrations of hydrogen sulphide i.e., 0 μg (control), 1 μg (low( and 5 μg H2S/L (high) where the samples were taken when exposed for 2 ... -
Heritability of longevity in the Icelandic sheep breed and the reproduction factors affecting it
(Master thesis, 2023)In recent years higher focus has been put on increasing welfare and decreasing negative environmental effects of animal production. One way to access this is increasing and understanding the factors affecting the animal’s ... -
Heritability of roughage intake and dry matter intake in Norwegian Red, and the association with methane emissions
(Master thesis, 2022)The need to reduce the agricultural emissions and its environmental footprint has become more pressing in view of its continuing expansion to ensure food security and feed a growing world population. Farm profitability and ... -
High and low fat diets, leucine and DHA influence growth, gene expression and fatty acid composition of different tissues in Atlantic salmon (salmo salar L)
(Master thesis, 2019)The main goal of this master thesis project was to examine how protein to lipid ratio in the diets, and DHA and leucine in combination, interact and affect the energy utilization for growth and lipid and protein deposition ... -
