Pigment identification during deetiolation of barley seedlings
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Angiosperm plants like barley (Hordeum vulgare) lack chlorophyll when grown in complete dark. Upon exposure to light, chlorophyll is formed during the process of deetiolation. Here , we show that in complete darkness barley ... -
Plasma drilling on solar system objects
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06)The search for water, minerals and most importantly evidence of life on other objects of our solar system will require access to the subsurface for sampling and in situ investigations. Drilling is therefore needed for this ... -
POP induced oxidative stress and its effect on fatty acid composition in Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) mitochondria
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)The North Sea is becoming heavily contaminated by organic pollutants. The dominating sources of contamination are land-based releases, transport and offshore oil and gas industry. This creates a complex spectrum of different ... -
Possible inhibitory effect of selected detergents used in food industry on wastewater treatment and especially on Grødaland wwtp.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Grødaland waste water treatment plant (wwtp) is treating industrial waste water coming from food industry. As food industry consumes large amounts of detergents for food processing equipment cleaning, the wwtp receives ... -
