Anaerobic Treatment of Low to Medium Strength Municipal Wastewater in Laboratory Scale Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) Reactors
(Bachelor thesis, 2023)The focus of this study is assessing and exploring the potential of anaerobic treatment for municipal wastewater of low- to medium strength (i.e., 212 mg/l COD and 931 mg/l COD) for converting organic matter into methane ... -
Anaerobic Treatment of Municipal Wastewater at Mesophilic and Psychrophilic Temperatures Using Bench Scale Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) Reactors
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)The limitation of high TSS wastewater treatment is hydrolysis. At low temperatures, the hydrolytic rate limitation is exacerbated. This project investigates the operational conditions required to improve the hydrolytic ... -
Analysis of the Antibiotic Ampicillin in Activated Sludge: Method Development and Adsorption Studies
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)The presence of antibiotics in wastewater treatment plants is a concern, both because of potential release to natural water systems, and connected to the spread of antibiotic resistance genes. In this thesis, the focus is ... -
Analyzing Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Data
(Bachelor thesis, 2023)Magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy (MRS) modalities provide non-invasive and non-ionization in vivo imaging tools for preclinical and clinical examinations. Brain examinations’ standard clinical MR protocols comprise ... -
Anomeric O-Alkylation as a Diastereoselective Glycosylation Method
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)After the Biolink group’s first full synthesis of the anthocyanins cyanidin and delphinidin in which the best results at the time were produced by anomeric O-alkylation of glucose. The Biolink research group was interested ... -
Anthropogenic impacts on Hunnedalen watershed; monitored and modeled water chemistry
(Master thesis, 2021)Hunnedalen watershed, in southwestern Norway, are associated with dilute water quality which makes it highly responsive to changes. In this study, the watershed’s water quality was monitored for one year, 2020, to evaluate ... -
Antiscaling Evaluation and Quantum Chemical Studies of Nitrogen-Free Organophosphorus Compounds for Oilfield Scale Management
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-08)Nonpolymeric aminomethylenephosphonates are widely used as powerful scale inhibitors in the petroleum industry. However, most of these inhibitors have certain drawbacks, such as low biodegradability and incompatibilities ... -
Antiscaling Evaluation of Novel Non-Polymeric Phosphonates for Oilfield Applications
(Master thesis, 2021)Scale formation consists of an accumulation of mineral deposits, affecting fluids flow. It is a major flow assurance problem in the oilfield industry and can occur anywhere along water paths, from injectors through the ... -
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 ... -
Application of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) cell line assays to study functional feed ingredients
(Master thesis, 2021)In many countries, aquaculture is key for giving essential food security and income. As the human population grows, an upscaling and reshaping of aquaculture is required to meet the increasing demands for seafood in the ... -
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 ... -
The Asgard Archaeal-Unique Contribution to Protein Families of the Eukaryotic Common Ancestor Was 0.3%
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-04)The identification of the asgard archaea has fueled speculations regarding the nature of the archaeal host in eukaryogenesis and its level of complexity prior to endosymbiosis. Here, we analyzed the coding capacity of 150 ... -
Assessing environmental impact of discharge to sea from producing subsea installation with DREAM following life cycle thinking: a preliminary study for the environmental footprint
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-15)The purpose of this study was to quantify the environmental footprint of discharge to sea from a producing subsea installation and its semi-submersible host platform in the North Sea. Portion of environmental burden that ... -
Assessing the usage of predictive modeling to anticipate the response of cancer cells to metformin treatment
(Bachelor thesis, 2021)As artificial intelligence is steadily rising, the application of machine learning to predict drug responses of cancer cells can be of great value in cancer therapy. Although the drug metformin was originally developed to ... -
Assessment of oil contaminated sediment toxicity using in vitro bioassay based on fish cell lines.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)A series of oil-contaminated sediment samples (drill cuttings) have been analyzed for their toxicity using in vitro bioassay based on fish cell lines. Drill cuttings are pieces of rock that come out of a well, (a deep hole ... -
