Can gut microbial community changes in Atlantic cod be used as biomarker of water pollution?
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)The gut microbiome of juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) was studied to evaluate changes related to the exposure of dispersed crude oil and find potential biomarker of exposures. Fish was exposed to dispersed crude oil ... -
Characterization of antimicrobial resistance in Norwegian blood culture isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae using whole genome sequencing.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Antimicrobial drugs are used to treat and prevent infections caused by microorganisms. For decades, they have saved millions of lives, treated diseases and reduced pain. However, when exposed to antimicrobial drugs, ... -
Characterization of Exosomes and Synthesized Exosome-Based Liposomes to Establish a Drug Delivery Scheme for the Treatment of Epilepsy.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)Epilepsy is one of the most prevalent, chronic, critical neurological diseases. Due to the ability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to prevent the entry of drugs into the brain, pharmaceutical treatment of central nervous ... -
Detection and quantification of pharmaceuticals in sediment, seawater, and wastewater treatment plant samples
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-07-15)Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are increasingly occurring in nature. Their presence is posing a concern about antibiotic resistance in bacteria and other effects on the ecosystem, which are not yet fully understood. ... -
Dysfunction of Protein Homeostasis: Factors in uencing the Formation of alpha - Synuclein (Lewy Bodies) in Arabidopsis thaliana plants
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)BACKGROUND:Protein homeostasis or proteostasis under the conscious control of a network of proteins including chaperones, transporters, ubiquitin-dependent proteasome control the proper expression, folding, translocation ... -
Homeostasis by depression kinetics with multisite inhibition and positive feedback
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020)In order to survive all living organisms must, to some extent, be able to adapt to the changes in environment.In recent years there have been proposed different controller motifs that are used to explain how does the ... -
Isolation and characterization of exosomes from human plasma related to development of a nanocarrier for epilepsy treatment
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)The investigation of exosomes as a cell-mediated delivery system for the delivery of nucleic acids, proteins and low molecular-weight therapeutic drugs increased during the past two decades. The potential of exosomes as ... -
Isolation, characterization and BBB permeability of plasma derived exosomes in relation to refractory epilepsy
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Exosomes have been of increasing interest for researchers due to their potential as a therapeutic drug delivery system. Refractory epilepsy is a drug-resistant form that affects 30% of epilepsy patients. There is no common ... -
Liquid losses from Atlantic cod (Gadhus morhua) during heat treatment
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)This thesis concerns a project in cooperation with Nofima, where we consider the mechanisms behind water loss during cooking of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). The thesis is a closing part of a master program in Biological ... -
Method development for the extraction of pure intact mitochondria from beef heart and liver, and from HL-60 cultured cells.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Mitochondria have an essential role in the preservation of life. Life persists as a result of structure and energy, and the mitochondria are key components of energy production. Mitochondrial dysfunction is considered a ... -
Mutants deficient in thylakoid membrane protein complexes characterize photosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-05)Photosynthesis involves two major pathways through which light energy can be harvested and transformed into chemical energy. Light drives the flow of electrons through a chain of redox protein complexes to synthesize NADPH ... -
Study of Protein phosphatase subunit B’ɸ - impact on Arabidopsis thaliana and plant-microbe interaction.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)The protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) complex accounts for a considerable part of the protein dephosphorylation. PP2A is made up of three types of subunits, a catalytic(C), scaffolding (A) and regulatory (B) subunit. A certain ... -
Transformation of Arabidopsis by Flag tagged PP2A
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Eukaryotic protein kinases transfer a phosphate group from ATP to the hydroxyl group of Ser, Thr and Tyr residues, whereas protein phosphatases hydrolyze the phosphoester bond to give free phosphate and dephosphorylated ...
