Changes in food quality attributes of Saccharina latissima following pre-treatments, frozen storage and subsequent thawing
Stevant, Pierrick Francois Denis; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund; Arlov, Øystein; Nordtvedt, Tom Ståle; Sarno, Antonio; Aarstad, Olav Andreas; Klau, Leesa Jane; Rustad, Turid; Sæther, Maren; Rebours, Celine (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Changes in relevant quality attributes for the food industry were monitored in Saccharina latissima following pre-treatment (PT), freezing and thawing. The evaluation included the monitoring of qualitative indicators (dry ... -
Extraction and characterization of bioactive natural products from brown seaweed Alaria esculenta
Zhang, Shizhe (Master thesis, 2022)Natural products are chemical compounds found in natural sources including terrestrial and marine organisms. In addition to their nutritional values, natural products can also exhibit health benefits such as antipathogenic, ... -
High-Resolution 1D 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Multivariate Analysis and Heteronuclear Single Quantum Coherence Spectroscopy for Comparing Different Sample Preparation Methods and Styles of Beer
Zotchev, Kristoffer (Master thesis, 2020)The consumption of beer is deeply embedded in Norwegian history, all the way back to when the vikings celebrated after a day of successful plundering. Worldwide, the variety of different kinds of beers is greatly increasing, ... -
Investigation into the presence of polyphenols and carotenoids in the two seaweed species Alaria esculenta and Saccharina latissima, with a focus on extracting, purifying, and characterizing the xanthophyll fucoxanthin.
Jacobsen, Synnøve Strand (Master thesis, 2021)Kultivering og utnyttelse av tare som en bærekraftig kilde til fornybare ressurser har de siste årene fått mye oppmerksomhet. Forskning på antioksidanter som polyfenoler og karotenoider fra bruntare har spesielt fått mye ... -
Investigation of the structural and immunomodulatory properties of alkali-soluble β-glucans from Pleurotus eryngii fruiting bodies
Ellefsen, Christiane Færestrand; Lindstad, Linda; Klau, Leesa Jane; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund; Hiorth, Marianne; Samuelsen, Anne Berit C. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Fungal β-glucans have received a lot of interest due to their proinflammatory activity towards cells of the innate immune system. Although commonly described as (1➔3)-β-glucans with varying degree of (1➔6)-branching, the ... -
The Natural Product Domain Seeker version 2 (NaPDoS2) webtool relates ketosynthase phylogeny to biosynthetic function
Klau, Leesa Jane; Podell, Sheila; Creamer, Kaitlin E.; Demko, Alyssa M.; Singh, Hans W.; Allen, Eric E.; Moore, Bradley S.; Ziemert, Nadine; Letzel, Anne Catrin; Jensen, Paul R. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Natural Product Domain Seeker (NaPDoS) webtool detects and classifies ketosynthase (KS) and condensation domains from genomic, metagenomic, and amplicon sequence data. Unlike other tools, a phylogeny-based classification ... -
Structural characterization and immunomodulating assessment of ultra-purified water extracted fucoidans from Saccharina latissima, Alaria esculenta and Laminaria hyperborea
Sandberg Birgersson, Paulina Anna Teresia; Chahal, Aman Singh; Klau, Leesa Jane; Holte, Helle Bratsberg; Arlov, Øystein; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Fucoidans, a group of high molecular weight polysaccharides derived mainly from brown algae, are characterized by their high fucose content, degree of sulfation (DS), and intra- and interspecific structural variation. ... -
Visible light-exposed lignin facilitates cellulose solubilization by lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases
Kommedal, Eirik; Angeltveit, Camilla Fløien; Klau, Leesa Jane; Ayuso-Fernandez, Ivan; Arstad, Bjørnar; Antonsen, Simen; Stenstrøm, Yngve; Ekeberg, Dag; Gírio, Francisco; Carvalheiro, Florbela; Horn, Svein Jarle; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund; Eijsink, Vincent (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) catalyze oxidative cleavage of crystalline polysaccharides such as cellulose and are crucial for the conversion of plant biomass in Nature and in industrial applications.
