      Growing evidence supports a role for extracellular vesicles (EVs) in haemostasis and thrombosis due to exposure of negatively charged procoagulant phospholipids (PPL). Current commercial PPL-dependent clotting assays use chemically phospholipid depleted plasma to measure PPL activity. The purpose of our study was to modify the PPL assay by substituting the chemically phospholipid depleted plasma ...
    • New Late Pleistocene species of Acharax from Arctic methane seeps off Svalbard 

      Hansen, Jesper; Ezat, Mohamed; Åström, Emmelie; Rasmussen, Tine Lander (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-01)
      We report, for the first time, the solemyid <i>Acharax svalbardensis</i> sp. nov., from deep-sea methane seep sites on the western Svalbard margin, 79°N. This species is rather small and so far the northernmost representative of its genus. It is identified based on the following combination of diagnostic characters: umbo 27–30% valve length from posterior margin; H/L ratio ∼0.35; broadly rounded to ...
    • Palaeoceanographic reconstruction of surface-ocean changes in the southern Norwegian Sea for the last ~130,000 years based on diatoms and with comparison to foraminiferal records 

      Hoff, Ulrike; Rasmussen, Tine Lander; Meyer, Hanno; Koc, Nalan; Hansen, Jesper (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-28)
      Fossil marine diatom assemblages in a sediment core from the central northern Faroe slope in the Norwegian Sea were used to reconstruct palaeoceanographic changes in the surface water mixed layer from the last ~130,000 years (Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 6/5 transition to MIS 1 (including the Eemian and Holocene interglacials) and to compare the results with previously published results on planktic ...
