Antibiotic uptake by cultured Atlantic cod leucocytes and effect on intracellular Francisella noatunensis subsp. noatunensis replication
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-04)The granuloma disease caused by Francisella noatunensis subsp. noatunensis in farmed Atlantic cod has not been successfully treated by use of antibacterials, even when antibacterial resistance testing indicates a sufficient ... -
Anticancer activity in Planctomycetes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-01-07)There is a strong need to develop new drugs against many severe diseases. Therapy resistance is a major problem, for instance, in infectious diseases and cancer. Drug discovery has again turned to nature to search for ... -
Apparent availability of zinc, selenium and manganese as inorganic metal salts or organic forms in plant-based diets for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03)The composition of salmonid diets has changed from the use of mainly marine ingredients to increased use of plant ingredients, and this has an impact on the mineral content and availability. Minerals, like zinc (Zn), ... -
Application of laboratory methods for understanding fish responses to black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) based diets
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A major challenge for development of sustainable aquafeeds is its dependence on fish meal and fish oil. Replacement with more sustainable, nutritious and safe ingredients is now a priority. Over the last years, among several ... -
Approaches to defining a planetary boundary for biodiversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09)The idea that there is an identifiable set of boundaries, beyond which anthropogenic change will put the Earth system outside a safe operating space for humanity, is attracting interest in the scientific community and ... -
Approaches to pollen taxonomic harmonisation in Quaternary palynology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Pollen taxonomic harmonisation involves the standardisation of the nomenclature of pollen and fern spores with similar morphotypes at the determination level that is common to all grains or spores with that morphotype ... -
Aquaculture-driven evolution of the salmon louse mtDNA genome
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Resistance toward the antiparasitic pyrethroid, deltamethrin, is reported in the Atlantic salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis salmonis), a persistent ectoparasite of farmed and wild salmonids. The resistance mechanism ... -
Aquaculture-driven evolution: distribution of pyrethroid resistance in the salmon louse throughout the North Atlantic in the years 2000–2017
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The parasitic salmon louse, and its documented resistance to chemotherapeutants, represents the most persistent environmental challenge to global salmonid aquaculture. We used a genetic marker associated with pyrethroid ... -
Aquaporin evolution in fishes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-07-26)Aquaporins represent a primordial group of transmembrane solvent channels that have been documented throughout the living biota. This facet alone emphasizes the positive selection pressure for proteins associated with ... -
The Arabidopsis (ASHH2) CW domain binds monomethylated K4 of the histone H3 tail through conformational selection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Chromatin post‐translational modifications are thought to be important for epigenetic effects on gene expression. Methylation of histone N‐terminal tail lysine residues constitutes one of many such modifications, executed ... -
An Arctic natural oil seep investigated from space to the seafloor
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Due to climate change, decreasing ice cover and increasing industrial activities, Arctic marine ecosystems are expected to face higher levels of anthropogenic stress. To sustain healthy and productive ocean ecosystems, it ... -
Are synchronous chats a silver lining of emergency remote instruction? Text-based chatting is disproportionately favored by women in a non-majors introductory biology course
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to a reimagining of many aspects of higher education, including how instructors interact with their students and how they encourage student participation. Text-based ... -
Assessing amino acid solubility of black soldier fly larvae meal in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in vivo and in vitro
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In vitro and in vivo methods were used to evaluate amino acids solubility of black soldier fly (BSF) larvae meal and two experimental diets (reference and test diets) for Atlantic salmon. The current study used in vitro ... -
Assessing microplastic as a vector for chemical entry into fish larvae using a novel tube-feeding approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A tube-feeding model for administering microplastic (MP, Ø = 30 μm) spheres to fish larvae was employed to quantify the uptake of hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) into the larval body through a single administration ... -
Assessing mineral availability in fish feeds using complementary methods demonstrated with the example of zinc in atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Assessing the availability of dietary micro-minerals is a major challenge in mineral nutrition of fish species. The present article aims to describe a systematic approach combining different methodologies to assess the ... -
Assessing sampling coverage of species distribution in biodiversity databases
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Aim: Biodiversity databases are valuable resources for understanding plant species distributions and dynamics, but they may insufficiently represent the actual geographic distribution and climatic niches of species. Here ... -
Assessing the effectiveness of an electricalstunning and chilling protocol for theslaughter of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-04)Inducing unconsciousness in fish using electrical stunning prior to slaughter may improve fish welfare and fillet quality if such practises can be disseminated into wild capture fisheries. The objectives of this study were ... -
