(PhD thesis UiS;375, Doctoral thesis, 2018-01)The two TAP-like genes, AtTAP1 and AtTAP2, belong to the ABC transporter superfamily of Arabidopsis. AtTAP2/ALS1 has been shown to be important for aluminum metabolism and tolerance, however, little is known about the ... -
Directed ortho-Metalation and Anionic ortho-Fries Rearrangement of Polycyclic Aromatic O-Carbamates: Regioselective Synthesis of Substituted Chrysenes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03)A general method for the regioselective synthesis of a series of ortho-substituted chrysenyl N,N-diethyl-O-carbamates by the directed ortho-metalation (DoM) strategy is reported. The starting O-carbamates were prepared ... -
Gastrointestinal microbial community changes in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) exposed to crude oil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-04)Background The expansion of offshore oil exploration increases the risk of marine species being exposed to oil pollution in currently pristine areas. The adverse effects of oil exposure through toxic properties of polycyclic ... -
Design, synthesis and antitumor evaluation of novel pyrazolopyrimidines and pyrazoloquinazolines
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-05)A series of N-aryl-7-aryl-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 18a–u and N-aryl-pyrazolo[1,5-a] quinazolines 25a–c were designed and synthesized via the reaction of 5-aminopyrazoles 11a–c with enaminones 12a–g or 19, respectively. ... -
Culture-dependent versus Culture-independent Methods for Quantifying Sulphate-Reducing Bacteria in Injection and Produced Water from the Greater Ekofisk Area
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-05-26)Planktonic and sessile bacteria, in particular sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB), in the petroleum industry can be damaging to top-side facilities, pipelines and reservoirs. Development of microbial influenced corrosion ... -
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 ... -
Metabolic and Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition Assesment of Colon Cancer Cell Lines
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)Background: Cancer have varying dependency on oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis, and cancer metastasis decreases the patient 5-year survival rate. Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) are demonstrated to ... -
