(Master thesis, 2020)Psoriasis er en vanlig kronisk inflammatorisk sykdom som er karakterisert ved hyperproliferering og unormal differensiering av epidemis. Det er ingen kur, og det har vært lite forbedring i utviklingen av nye behandlinger ... -
Investigation into the Performance of Candle Filter Technology for the Separation of Metal Hydroxide Precipitates from an Aqueous Effluent
(Master thesis, 2014)The effluent treatment plant at Glencore Nikkelverk experiences the generation of liquid waste from various areas and processes in the plant. Being primarily a nickel refinery, but also producing copper and cobalt, the ... -
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.
(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 4,6-Disubstituted Pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines as Potential Colony-Stimulating Factor 1 Receptor Inhibitors; Synthesis of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives on the Aromatic Moiety at Position C-6.
(Master thesis, 2019)I medisinsk kjemi har små molekyler blitt et viktig forskningsområde innen legemidler. Fusjonerte heterosykler har blitt rapportert til å utfolde en rekke biologiske aktiviteter, og pyrrolopyrimidiner er en av hovedklassene ... -
Investigation of `glitches' in the energy spectrum induced by single-crystal diamond compound X-ray refractive lenses
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Single-crystal diamond stands out among all the candidate materials that could be exploited to fabricate compound refractive lenses (CRLs) owing to its extremely stable properties. Among all related experimental features, ... -
Investigation of a membrane contactor for CO2 capture from natural gas/biogas
(Master thesis, 2016)Carbon dioxide needs to be separated from natural gas or biogas streams and membrane contactors can be a very good alternative for it. In this work a poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne) supported by a polyvinylidene fluoride ... -
Investigation of a new application for cellulose nanocrystals: a study of the enhanced oil recovery potential by use of a green additive
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) were investigated for use in a potential new application, enhanced oil recovery. Core flooding experiments were performed on outcrop sandstone cores using CNC particles dispersed in low salinity ... -
Investigation of a Non-Associated Flow Rule Incorporating Corner Effects and Comparison with an Elastoplastic Crystal Plasticity Model
(Master thesis, 2019)Den konvensjonelle assosierte flyteregelen, brukt i kontinuums plastisitetsmodeller, er uegnet til prediksjon av flytinstabiliteter i tynne plater under biaksiell last og plastisk bukling ved bifurkasjonsanalyse. Teorien ... -
