Modelling and Analysis of a Synthetic Bistable Genetic Switch
(Master thesis, 2011)In the field of systems and synthetic biology there has been an increasing interest for the use of genetic circuits during the last decade. Several circuits have been successfully put together, many of which were based on ... -
Modelling and Analysis of Osmotic Stress in Escherichia Coli
(Master thesis, 2015)Microorganisms are known to be affected by stresses such as osmotic stress by reducing their growth rate. Understanding the mechanisms behind this are important, as it can aid in the development of new methods of con- serving ... -
Modelling biodegradation of crude oil components at low temperatures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)For oil spilled at sea, the main weathering processes are evaporation, emulsification, photo-oxidation, dispersion and biodegradation. Of these, only biodegradation may completely remove hydrocarbons from the environment ... -
Modelling the Spread of SARS-CoV-2 in a Hospital Setting
(Master thesis, 2022)Siden det første utbruddet av SARS-CoV-2 i Kina i slutten 2019 har viruset spredt seg til alle deler av verden. Så langt har omkring 540 millioner tilfeller blitt rapportert og over 6 millioner liv har gått tapt som følge ... -
Modelling the transmission of COVID-19 in primary schools
(Master thesis, 2022)Da COVID-19 ble erklært en pandemi våren 2020, ble ulike regler og restriksjoner raskt implementert for å redusere spredning av sykdommen. Blant de som ble hardest rammet av disse tiltakene, finner man barn og ungdom, som ... -
Modelling water and salt diffusion of cold-smoked Atlantic salmon initially immersed in refrigerated seawater versus on ice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The effect of dry salting during the cold-smoking process was evaluated on Atlantic salmon initially stored in refrigerated seawater (RSW) or ice. A 2D mathematical model was developed from first principles, simulating the ... -
Modification and Characterization of the Catalytic Subunit, the A-module, of the Mannuronan C-5 Epimerases AlgE4 and AlgE6
(Master thesis, 2015)Alginate is a family of polysaccharides composed of (1 to 4)-linked beta-D-mannuronic acid (M) and alpha-L-guluronic acid (G), with a wide variety of applications and even greater prospects for the future. Alginate is first ... -
Modified xanthan structure by expression of heterologous glycosyltransferases in a gumI deletion strain and initial polysaccharide characterization
(Master thesis, 2020)Xanthan er en mikrobiell eksopolysakkarid (EPS) med en pentasakkarid repeterende enhet med en ryggrad av β-D-glukose-(1→4)-β-D-glukose med en sidekjede besteående av β-D-mannose-(1→4)-β-D-glukuronsyre-(1→2)-α-D-mannose. ... -
Modulation of calcium-induced gelation of pectin by oligoguluronate as compared to alginate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Previous studies have demonstrated that oligoguluronate (guluronate block extracted from alginate, GB) was an efficient modulator of the gelation and gelling properties of macromolecular alginate in the presence of calcium. ... -
Molecular adaptations to phosphorus deprivation and comparison with nitrogen deprivation responses in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Phosphorus, an essential element for all living organisms, is a limiting nutrient in many regions of the ocean due to its fast recycling. Changes in phosphate (Pi) availability in aquatic systems affect diatom growth and ... -
Molecular characterization and whole genome epidemiology of Staphylococcus aureus strains
(Master thesis, 2023)Staphylococcus aureus er både en kommensal bakterie som finnes på huden og i nesehulen, og en patogen bakterie kan forårsake en rekke alvorlige infeksjoner. Det er den nest vanligste årsaken til blodstrømsinfeksjon (BSI), ... -
Molecular genetic analysis of the microbial community structure in nitrifying biofilms adapted to different salinities
(Master thesis, 2010)Nitrification, the microbial oxidation of ammonia to nitrate, is a key step inthe biological cycling of nitrogen, and is often used in wastewater treatmentfor removal of ammonium. Fish-farming in flow-through systems such ... -
Molecular insight into a new low-affinity xylan binding module from the xylanolytic gut symbiont Roseburia intestinalis
