Characterization of Nuclear Respiratory Factor 1 using transgenic zebrafish
(Doctoral thesis, 2006-12-01)Nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) is a transcription factor essential for the embryonic development of vertebrates. The zebrafish mutant nrf is characterized by apoptotic photoreceptor death during embryogenesis followed ... -
Characterization of Polyphenolic Content in the Aquatic Plants Ruppia cirrhosa and Ruppia maritima —A Source of Nutritional Natural Products
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Herein, the polyphenolic content in extracts of Ruppia cirrhosa (Petagna) Grande and Ruppia maritima L.was fully characterized for the first time. High amounts of the main compound chicoric acid (CA) (≤30.2 ± 4.3 mg/g) ... -
Characterization of Pseudoterranova ceticola (Nematoda: Anisakidae) larvae from meso/bathypelagic fishes off Macaronesia (NW Africa waters)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The genus Pseudoterranova includes parasite species of cetaceans and pinnipeds. The third stage larva (L3) of seal-infecting species occur in second intermediate or paratenic fish hosts mainly in neritic waters. This study ... -
Characterization of regulatory T cells in Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome type I, a model disease for autoimmunity
(Master thesis, 2018-12-21)The T and B lymphocytes of the adaptive immune system face the challenge of correctly recognizing antigens originating from a vast number of rapidly evolving pathogens, while ignoring those pertaining to the host itself. ... -
Characterization of seabed properties from Scholte waves acquired on floating ice on shallow water
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Seismic surveying of the coastal areas in the Arctic is best facilitated during wintertime when the sea ice is land-fast. This eases the logistics of the operation and assures that there is no damage made to the vulnerable ... -
Characterization of Silicon Photomultiplier and Design of Front-End Electronics for ALOFT
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)ALOFT is an aircraft campaign led by Birkeland Centre for Space Science at University of Bergen. The primary goal of the campaign is to look for Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes and gamma-ray glows, both high-energetic phenomena ... -
Characterization of Small, Mononuclear Blood Cells from Salmon Having High Phagocytic Capacity and Ability to Differentiate into Dendritic like Cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-11-14)Phagocytes are the principal component of the innate immune system, playing a key role in the clearance of foreign particles that include potential pathogens. In vertebrates, both neutrophils and mononuclear cells like ... -
Characterization of some Kunitz domain containing genes - possible link to Salivary gland
(Master thesis, 2015-10-15)As a hematophagous parasite, anticoagulants are crucial for L. salmonis. In hematophagous animals specific anticoagulants are produced by salivary gland in order to keep the blood liquid and to allow the parasite to process ... -
Characterization of Terrain-Induced Turbulence by Large-Eddy Simulation for Air Safety Considerations in Airport Siting
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Topography-induced turbulence poses a potential hazard for aviation safety, in particular during the final approach and landing. In this context, it is essential to assure that the impact of topography-induced turbulence ... -
Characterization of the 18s rRNA gene for designing universal eukaryote specific primers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-07)High throughput sequencing technology has great promise for biodiversity studies. However, an underlying assumption is that the primers used in these studies are universal for the prokaryotic or eukaryotic groups of interest. ... -
