Molecular Dynamics Simulations of a Chimeric Androgen Receptor Protein (SPARKI) Confirm the Importance of the Dimerization Domain on DNA Binding Specificity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-01)The DNA binding domains of Androgen/Glucocorticoid receptors (AR/GR), members of class I steroid receptors, bind as a homo-dimer to a cis-regulatory element. These response elements are arranged as inverted repeat (IR) of ... -
1,4-Dideoxy-1,4-imino‑D‑arabinitol (DAB) Analogues Possessing a Hydrazide Imide Moiety as Potent and Selective α‑Mannosidase Inhibitors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-07)The synthesis of two polyhydroxylated pyrrolidines as 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-d-arabinitol (DAB) analogues bearing a hydrazide moiety is described. The DAB analogues act as selective and potent inhibitors of α-mannosidase ... -
Aquatic ecotoxicological assessment of sediments collected in Bergen using in vitro bioassays based on fish cell lines
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-12-15)Bergen is located along the coast in western Norway and is the second biggest city in the country, acting as a gateway to oceans and fjords in the region featuring extensive fish populations. As such, environmental evaluation ... -
Environmentally Friendly Phosphonated Polyetheramine Scale Inhibitors - Excellent Calcium Compatibility for Oilfield Applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-05)Scaling is one of the most frequently stated problems in the oil industry, and scale inhibitors (SIs) are applied to prevent its formation. Organophosphonates are well-known types of SIs, particularly useful for squeeze ... -
Diastereoselectivity in Anomeric O-alkylation Glycosylation
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2021-02)Biosynth AS used anomeric O-alkylation of α-haloacetophenones in their patented total synthesis of anthocyanins from 2006. There were, however, several challenges with stereoselectivity and yields when performing this ... -
The application of digital image analysis to quantify histological pathological changes in Mytilus edulis from the Water Column Monitoring program
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06-15)Use of histopathology to identify changes in marine species in response to contaminants is a long-known practice. The suitability of histopathological biological markers in the assessment of marine environment quality ... -
Review and evaluation of techno-economic and environmental simulation tools to address CO2 transport within CCS value chain
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06-15)Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is an important solution to meeting climate targets set by United Nations and can potentially reduce 15 % of CO2 emissions globally. CCS has been studied for over 20 years. However, its ... -
Transitioning from mesophilic to thermophilic anaerobic digestion at VEAS and the influence of co-digesting primary sludge with potato-stillage
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06)Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a microbial degradation process in the absence of oxygen by several complex biological reactions where polymeric organic carbon compounds are transformed into biogas and potential biofertilizer. ... -
