Localisation of nitrate-reducing and highly abundant microbial communities in the oral cavity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-12)The nitrate (NO3-) reducing bacteria resident in the oral cavity have been implicated as key mediators of nitric oxide (NO) homeostasis and human health. NO3--reducing oral bacteria reduce inorganic dietary NO3- to nitrite ... -
Long-term operation of an anaerobic bioreactor effluent gravity driven membrane system
(Master thesis, 2023)Currently, anaerobic treatment technology stands out as a viable solution for wastewater treatment due to its minimal carbon footprint. The key advantage lies in its capacity to directly convert organics into methane, ... -
Loss of LEUCINE CARBOXYL METHYLTRANSFERASE 1 interferes with metal homeostasis in Arabidopsis and enhances susceptibility to environmental stresses
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The biochemical function of LEUCINE CARBOXYL METHYLTRANSFERASE 1 (LCMT1) is to transfer a methyl group from the methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to the catalytic subunits of PROTEIN PHOSPHATASE 2A (PP2Ac), PP4 and ... -
Low-concentration salting of cod loins: The effect on biochemical properties and predicted water retention during heating
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-10)Low levels of salt are frequently used to increase flavor and water retention in cod. This alters the biochemical properties of cod during heating. In this paper, properties needed to mathematically model moisture transfer ... -
Low-temperature anaerobic wastewater treatment by granulated biomass
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2022-05)In this study, long-term operation of up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) system treating real municipal wastewater at decreasing temperatures (25, 16, 12, 8.5, 5.5, and 2.5 °C) and variable organic loading rates from ... -
Major bioactive chemical compounds in Astragali Radix samples from different vendors vary greatly
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-07)The worldwide traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbs sales figures have increased considerably to 50 billion US$ (2018). Astragali Radix (AR) is amongst the most often sold TCM herbs; sales in the European Union (EU) ... -
Maleic and Methacrylic Homopolymers with Pendant Dibutylamine or Dibutylamine Oxide Groups as Kinetic Hydrate Inhibitors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) are applied in oil and gas fields to prevent gas hydrate formation, most often in cold subsea flow lines. The main component in industrial KHI formulations is a water-soluble polymer with ... -

Mechanical, barrier, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of alginate films: Effect of seaweed powder and plasma-activated water
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The incorporation of natural fillers such as seaweed may potentially enhance the properties of biopolymer films. In this study, we investigated the effect of seaweed powder as a bio-filler in alginate-based films at different ... -
Meta-analysis of whole-exome sequencing data from two independent cohorts finds no evidence for rare variant enrichment in Parkinson disease associated loci
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-10)Parkinson disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. While genome wide association studies have identified several susceptibility loci, many causal variants ... -
