The effects of pH, time and temperature on the stability and viscosity of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) dispersions: implications for use in enhanced oil recovery
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-08)Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) are currently being investigated as potential additives for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Presented in this paper is a study investigating the effects of different physical and chemical environments ... -
Effects of pharmaceuticals on oxidative stress genes in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) caged near the marine wastewater treatment plant discharge of Stavanger.
(Bachelor thesis, 2022)Atlantic cod caged in three different locations at the coastline of Stavanger, were monitored to look at the potential oxidative stress effect caused by pharmaceutical contaminations in selected areas. The first station ... -
Effects of polymer adsorption on the effective viscosity in microchannel flows: phenomenological slip layer model from molecular simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-10)Molecular simulations (Dissipative Particle Dynamics - DPD) were used to quantify the effect of polymer adsorption on the effective shear viscosity of a semi-dilute polymer solution in microchannel Poseuille flow. It is ... -
Effects of pore fluids on quasi‐static shear modulus caused by pore‐scale interfacial phenomena
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)It is evident from the laboratory experiments that shear moduli of different porous isotropic rocks may show softening behaviour upon saturation. The shear softening means that the shear modulus of dry samples is higher ... -
Effects of post-harvest storage conditions on volatile organic compounds and important fruit quality parameters in tomato fruit.
(Master thesis, 2021)Effects of storage conditions on tomato flavor has been of recent interest in terms of flavor and post-harvest handling. This study aims to establish an analytical procedure to analyze volatile organic compounds (VOCs) ... -
Effects of Potential Determining Ions and pH on the Wettability of Intermediate Wet Outcrop Limestone
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-07-13)The intent of this study is to determine if the wettability of slightly oil wet limestone can be shifted toward water wet using “Smart Water”. The theory of “Smart Water” in carbonates proposes that increasing the composition ... -
Effects of protein enrichment in texture modified and minced fish products
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06-15)The aim of this thesis was to develop two protein enriched products based on haddock and silver smelt, reaching the level of total protein in the utilized fish raw material. Both products were enriched by whey protein ... -
Effects of purified anthocyanins in people at risk for dementia: Study protocol for a phase II randomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: The number of people with dementia is increasing, with huge challenges for society and health-care systems. There are no disease-modifying therapies available. There is, therefore, an urgent need to identify ... -
Effects of regular classes in outdoor education settings: A systematic review on students' learning, social and health dimensions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-05)Background: Participants in Outdoor Education Programmes (OEPs) presumably benefit from these programmes in terms of their social and personal development, academic achievement and physical activity (PA). The aim of this ... -

Effects of replacing PSA with Stockholm3 for diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cance in a health care system – the Stavanger Experience
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-08)Objective To describe early experience of replacing PSA with Stockholm3 for detection of prostate cancer in primary care. Design and methods Longitudinal observations, comparing outcome measures before and after the ... -
Effects of rockfill dams and rock dumps on downstream water chemistry
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-10-28)A number of potential negative effects on aquatic environments are associated with rockfills. However, in southwestern Norway, lakes and rivers downstream from large rockfills were among the very few sites where trout ... -
Effects of salt geometry on the overburden calculation for borehole stability study
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-29)Pre-drill pore pressure and fracture gradient predictions are important for successful drilling and well construction. There are numerous different methods for calculating the pore pressure in shales without direct ... -
Effects of scheduled exercise on cancer-related fatigue in women with early breast cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-01)While physical activity during cancer treatment is found beneficial for breast cancer patients, evidence indicates ambiguous findings concerning effects of scheduled exercise programs on treatment-related symptoms. This ... -
