Primær analyse av catalase i Arabidopsis thaliana
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Catalase is involved in the protection of the cell against reactive oxygen species (ROS), though the detoxification of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the peroxisomes. If not destroyed or controlled ROS can lead to damage of ... -
Probabilistic blowout risk in former disputed area southeast in the Norwegian part of the Barents Sea.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)The maritime delimitation in the former disputed area between Norway and Russia was agreed upon in 2011. It is therefore probable that the area will be opened for petroleum exploration in the near future. A blowout represents ... -
Probing the possiblity of characterization of light induced PSII turn over efficiency via monitoring of the reduction of commonly used exogenous electron acceptors.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Photosystem II is the first protein complex in the Light-dependent reactions. It is located in the thylakoid membrane of plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. The enzyme captures photons of light to energize electrons that are ... -
Produced water challenges : influence of production chemicals on flocculation
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Produced water is the largest volume waste from offshore oil and gas exploration and production processes. Water in varying quantities is always produced along with oil, and has to be separated from the oil. The quantity ... -
Prognostiske biomarkører i endometrioid endometrial karsinogenese
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012-06-14)I den vestlige verden er endometriekreft den vanligste gynekologiske kreftformen og forekomsten er økende. Det er også den fjerde hyppigste kreftformen hos kvinner i Norge. De fleste kvinner som rammes av endometriekreft ... -

Protein phosphatase 2A and cryptochrome in plant development
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is a serine/threonine-specific phosphatase that regulates diverse signaling events in plants. PP2A consist of three subunits, a catalytic subunit (C), a scaffolding subunit (A), and a regulatory ... -
Protein phosphatase 4 recombinant protein – transformation of bacteria and Arabidopsis thaliana
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06)Protein phosphatase 4 (PP4) is well conserved in eukaryote organisms. The protein has been studied in yeast and mammalian cells, but little is known about PP4 in plants. The function of PP4 in plants is unknown and ... -
Quality of Norwegian cucumbers: effect of greenhouse praxis on taste and taste related constituents, and GC-FID analysis on content of fatty acids and aldehydes
(Master thesis, 2014-07-14)Earlier studies have shown that sugars (SSC), salts (EC) and the relationships between sugars/salts and sugars/acids (TTA- total titratable acids) may impact taste in cucumber. In this study, the impacts of ... -
Quantum correction to inflation and curvature perturbation
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06)Inflation is a sudden and near exponential expansion of space in early universe. Infla- tion solved flatness problem, horizon problem and monopole problem that persisted in standard big bang cosmology. It was not only useful ... -
Rapid detection of microorganisms in the dairy value chain by MALDI-TOF MS
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06)Recently, Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has developed as vigorous method for the identification of microorganisms in the clinical sector. MALDI-TOF MS is able ... -
Recombinant expression of transglutaminase from Atlantic cod in E. coli
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Transglutaminases (TGs) are a family of enzymes that catalyzes cross linking of proteins by forming covalent bonds between lysine residues and glutamine residues in different polypeptides. Cross-linking reactions are ... -
Recovery of oil spills by dispersants in marine arctic regions
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)The initial appearance of dispersants was 1960s and 1970s; oil spill dispersants have been the topic of significant research, testing, and debate. In spite of published reports about dispersant toxicity and effectiveness ... -
Reduction of scaling in biological treatment of industrial waste water at SART
(Master thesis, 2012)Scale formation is one of serious problems for oil industry and water treatment. Thanks to well-developed technologies today these is a wide spectrum of solutions, consisting of chemical inhibitors, evaporators and reverse ... -
Regiospecific synthesis of disubstituted phenanthrenes
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-16)As the Norwegian oil fields mature, the wells produce more water. This produced water containing a diverse mixture of dissolved PAHs is eventually released to the environment. A major part of these discharges are alkylated ... -
