    • Improved chronic wound therapy: surface charged deformable liposomes for dermal delivery of curcumin 

      Gagnat, Eivind (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-05-15)
      Chronic wounds are today representing a major challenge in global healthcare due the difficulty to treat as well as the costs for the society. Therefore, improving chronic wound therapy is an urgent need. Curcumin, a polyphenol compound, has shown to have potential in wound therapy due to its anti-inflammatory, anti-infectious and anti-oxidant properties. However, the poor water solubility, low ...
    • Salt movements in three provinces in the southwestern Barents Sea: development, timing, and implications of regional structural differences

The artists of Mithila devote their much time to portray different cultural aspects and their importance, however, the artists have not got much recognition from the Nepal government. Yet, they keep on painting to promote Mithila culture globally. In this context, the ...
    • Identifying Staphylococcus haemolyticus surface proteins. Development of a novel method for detection of bacterial surface proteins expressed during colonisation of human keratinocytes 

      Wolden, Runa (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-05-15)

S. haemolyticus and HaCaT cells were grown together and separated with FACS prior to surface protein shaving using the LPI™FlowCell technology (Nanoxis Consulting AB). TMT-tags were used to investigate up- and downregulation of proteins comparing S. ...
    • Staying in school, not dropping out - pupils' voices 

      Bjøru, Anne-Mette (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-08-21)
      This article asks: <i>What can highly motivated pupils in upper secondary school tell us about dropout and relations?</i> Bauman’s concepts: ‘liquid identity’ (2011) and ‘instant living’ (2012), as well as literature on ‘relations’ (Spurkeland, 2011; Drugli, 2012) provide the theoretical backdrop for the study. The findings are based on nine individual interviews with pupils, each lasted ...
    • Cholesterol Crystals Induce coagulation Activation through Complement-Dependent Expression of Monocytic Tissue Factor 

      Gravastrand, Caroline S.; Steinkjer, Bjørg; Halvorsen, Bente; Landsem, Anne; Skjelland, Mona; Jacobsen, Eva Astrid; Woodruff, Trent M.; Lambris, John D.; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Brekke, Ole-Lars; Espevik, Terje; Rokstad, Anne Mari (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-03)
      Cholesterol crystals (CC) are strong activators of complement and could potentially be involved in thromboinflammation through complement-coagulation cross-talk. To explore the coagulation-inducing potential of CC, we performed studies in lepirudin-based human whole blood and plasma models. In addition, immunohistological examinations of brain thrombi and vulnerable plaque material from patients ...

The purpose of this study was to gain more knowledge on the immunosuppressive traits of CAFs isolated from non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC), and to ...
    • Mapping nature’s contribution to people: Opportunities and limitations of crowdsourced data to identify place-based values and conservation concerns 

      Muñoz, Lorena (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2020-06-16)
      Nature provides people with a wide range of benefits, also known as nature’s contributions to people (NCP). The NCP framework evolved from the Ecosystem services (ES) concept as a response to the critiques and misconceptions associated with ES over the last years. Broadening ES valuations that have been dominated by economic valuations, the NCP framework emphasizes a pluralistic approach to valuation ...

    • Mathematical Models of Optimal Antibiotic Treatment 

      Martinecz, Antal (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2020-06-09)
      When bacteria are exposed to antibiotics, the rate of killing can slow down dramatically over time. This phenomenon can be observed both in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, the mechanistic explanations for this can be divided into two main categories: antibiotic persistence and heteroresistance. In vivo, both mechanisms thought to contribute to observed slowdowns in the elimination and as a result may ...
    • A segmentation of residents' attitudes towards mariculture development in Sweden 

      Skallerud, Kåre; Armbrecht, John (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-30)
      The farming of aquatic organisms, including fish, molluscs, crustaceans, and aquatic plants, is regarded as a promising strategy for local development (Cai et al., 2010; Cai et al., 2006; Costa-Pierce, 2016). Fresh water aquaculture is the dominant form of fish farming in Asia and is the largest component of China's aquaculture production (FAO, 2014). Mariculture, or marine aquaculture, has expanded ...
    • Polar Cod in a Changing Arctic. Toxicity of crude oil on sensitive life history stages of a key Arctic species 

      Bender, Morgan Lizabeth (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2020-06-12)
      Environmental change in the Arctic is occurring at an unprecedented rate with a loss of sea ice and warmer sea temperatures, simultaneously as increased human activity in the Arctic poses a risk of petroleum pollution. The potential future of a key Arctic forage fish, polar cod (<i>Boreogadus saida</i>), was investigated using laboratory simulations of oil spills during sensitive life-history stages: ...
