Environmental sustainability in restaurants. A systematic review and future research agenda on restaurant adoption of green practices
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The adverse impact that restaurants have on the environment has received widespread attention in the last decade from both practice and academia. The current study aims to find, catalog, and synthesize the research body ... -
Environmental variability in the early rearing environment generates behaviourally flexible cod: implications for rehabilitating wild populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-06-02)The release of hatchery-reared fishes for restoring threatened and endangered populations is one of the most controversial issues in applied ecology. A central issue has been to determine whether releases cause extinction ... -
Environmental visualizations: Framing and reframing between science, policy and society
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Visualizations are influential in the interaction between environmental science and policy. Research on framing in environmental visualizations (visual framing) is expanding. These studies typically focus on ‘static’ images; ... -
An environmentally benign and high-rate Appel type reaction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A high rate, selective, and productive Appel type reaction was developed. The method allows for ipso-substitution of the alcoholic hydroxy group with halogens ∈ [Cl, Br, I]. The method demands mild reaction conditions that ... -
Environmentally Friendly Synthesis of Biobased Plastic from Lignin Derived Building Blocks to Replace Poly(ethylene Terephthalate) (PET)
(Master thesis, 2017-12-20)The resources of petroleum are decreasing, and new ways have to be found of producing all the energy and chemicals that today are based on petroleum. An alternative to petroleum is renewable biomass, where lignocellulosic ... -
Envuelto mexicano con sabor al siglo XIX. Un análisis de El cocinero mexicano (1831) y El nuevo cocinero mexicano (1845)
(Master thesis, 2023-11-20)“Den mexicanske kokken” (El cocinero mexicano) fra 1831 og “Den nye mexicanske kokken” (El nuevo cocinero mexicano) fra 1831 og «El Nuevo Cocinero Mexicano» («Den nye meksikanske kokken») fra 1845 er to anonyme publikasjoner ... -
Enzymatic and Chemical Syntheses of Vacor Analogs of Nicotinamide Riboside, NMN and NAD
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)It has recently been demonstrated that the rat poison vacor interferes with mammalian NAD metabolism, because it acts as a nicotinamide analog and is converted by enzymes of the NAD salvage pathway. Thereby, vacor is ... -
Enzyme histochemical studies of acid phosphatise isoenzymes in induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Scandinavian Journal of Dental Research 89(6):485-90, Journal article, 1981)A bone induction model was used to study the effect of different pretreatments and inhibitors added to the substrate of acid phosphatise. Two different acid phosphatises (AcP) were demonstrated. The AcP of matrix-producing ... -
Enzyme histochemical studies of induced heterotopic cartilage and bone formation in guinea pigs with special references to acid phosphatise. A light and enzyme electron microscopic study
(Scandinavian Journal of Dental Research 89(6):491-8, Journal article, 1981)Heterotopic bone and cartilage formation was studied in a bone induction model in abdominal muscles of guinea pigs using demineralized allogenic dentin as inductive material. The light microscopical study showed high ... -
Enzyme histochemistry of induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Journal article, 1979)In an experimental bone induction model in guinea-pigs, large amounts of heterotopic osteiod and bone were found after 21 days. A semiquantiative intrasectional analysis of oxidative and hydrolytic enzyme activities in the ... -
Enzymes for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-06-30)Primary oil recovery by reservoir pressure depletion and secondary oil recovery by waterflooding usually result in poor displacement efficiency. As a consequence there is always some trapped oil remaining in oil reservoirs. ... -
Eosinophilic airway diseases: basic science, clinical manifestations and future challenges
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Eosinophils have a broad range of functions, both homeostatic and pathological, mediated through an array of cell surface receptors and specific secretory granules that promote interactions with their microenvironment. ... -
Epac1 Is Crucial for Maintenance of Endothelial Barrier Function through A Mechanism Partly Independent of Rac1
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Epac1 (exchange protein activated by cAMP) stabilizes the endothelial barrier, but detailed studies are limited by the side effects of pharmacological Epac1 modulators and transient transfections. Here, we compare the key ... -
Epac1 null mice have nephrogenic diabetes insipidus with deficient corticopapillary osmotic gradient and weaker collecting duct tight junctions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Aim The cAMP‐mediator Epac1 (RapGef3) has high renal expression. Preliminary observations revealed increased diuresis in Epac1−/− mice. We hypothesized that Epac1 could restrict diuresis by promoting transcellular collecting ... -
Epac1-deficient mice have bleeding phenotype and thrombocytes with decreased GPIbβ expression
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Epac1 (Exchange protein directly activated by cAMP 1) limits fluid loss from the circulation by tightening the endothelial barrier. We show here that Epac1−/− mice, but not Epac2−/− mice, have prolonged bleeding time, ... -
Epibenthic megafauna associated with sponge grounds formed by the unique glass sponge Vazella pourtalesii in Emerald Basin, Nova Scotia, Canada
(Master thesis, 2018-06-28)Large, dense aggregations of sponges or “sponge grounds” have seen a surge of scientific interest in recent years. The pivotal ecological functions of sponges may warrant conservation measures that have been neglected in ... -
An EPIC predictor of gestational age and its application to newborns conceived by assisted reproductive technologies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Gestational age is a useful proxy for assessing developmental maturity, but correct estimation of gestational age is difficult using clinical measures. DNA methylation at birth has proven to be an accurate ... -
Epicardial adipose tissue volume, plaque vulnerability and myocardial ischemia in non-obstructive coronary artery disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) accumulation has been associated with inflammation, atherosclerosis and microvascular dysfunction. Whether increased EAT volume is associated with coronary plaque vulnerability ... -
