• Associations between intake of dairy products and colorectal lesions in the Norwegian CRCbiome study: a cross-sectional study 

    Grønvik, Frøya Berg (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-05-15)
    Background: Intake of dairy is associated with lower risk of CRC. It is, however, unclear whether this risk reduction applies to all types of dairy products and whether it also applies to precancerous lesions. Aim/objective: To examine the association between intake of dairy products and CRC screening findings (non-advanced lesions and advanced colorectal lesions (ACN)) in participants with a ...
  • Exposure of marine invertebrates to car tire rubber: Uptake of rubber particles and related organic chemicals 

    Galtung, Kristin (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-15)
    Car tire rubber particles (CTRPs) are a major source of microplastic pollution to the environment, originating from abrasion during driving or the use of crumb rubber granulates made of discarded tires. However, large knowledge gaps remain regarding the distribution and presence of CTRPs in marine environments and interaction with marine organisms. The aims of this thesis were to investigate the ...
  • Effekt av langvarig fryselagring på kokte cluster av kongekrabbe 

    Jøstensen, Øyvind (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-15)
    Kongekrabbe har blitt fisket kommersielt i Norge siden 2002 og har blitt en viktig art for den norske sjømatindustrien, med stor økonomisk betydning i lokalsamfunn langs Finnmarkskysten. Med en eksport på 2000 tonn, til en verdi av 579 millioner kroner var kongekrabbe verdimessig den nest største arten i skalldyrkategorien i 2018. Mesteparten av kongekrabbe blir eksportert levende mens de resterende ...
  • Software Defined Radio Based Avalanche Beacon Receiver 

    Hofsøy-Woie, Vetle (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2024-01-24)
    Annually, avalanches claim an average of 100 lives, and many more are injured. For victims buried by an avalanche, time is of the essence. If not rescued within 15 minutes, the victim only has a 10% probability of survival. Commonly, the people venturing into avalanche-prone areas equips avalanche beacons. These devices work as small radio transmitters transmitting a signal at 457 kHz once each ...
  • Effects of acute and chronic handling stress on antiviral responses in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) red blood cells and testing of stress target genes 

    Aardal, Martine (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-13)
    The salmonids in today’s Norwegian aquaculture are exposed to many stressors, like suboptimal water quality, crowding and handling. This project focuses on red blood cell (RBCs) function in Atlantic salmon and how cellular responses are affected by stress. Since fish RBCs are nucleated and can change their gene expression, one of the main goals of this thesis is to better understand how the ...
