Microplastics could be marginally more hazardous than natural suspended solids - A meta-analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Microplastics (MP) are perceived as a threat to aquatic ecosystems but bear many similarities to suspended sediments which are often considered less harmful. It is, therefore pertinent to determine if and to what extent ... -
MnDPDP: Contrast agent for imaging and protection of viable tissue
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-10)The semistable chelate manganese (Mn) dipyridoxyl diphosphate (MnDPDP, mangafodipir), previously used as an intravenous (i.v.) contrast agent (Teslascan™, GE Healthcare) for Mn-ion-enhanced MRI (MEMRI), should be reappraised ... -
Modeling interactions between hydrogen-like atoms and intense laser pulses with the Dirac equation
(Master thesis, 2018-05-29)In this thesis, a model to describe the interactions between hydrogen-like atoms and intense laser pulses using the Dirac equation is developed. The modeling of these interactions can be motivated by the advances in laser ... -
Modification of Network and Pore Dimensionality in Metal–Organic Frameworks Containing a Secondary Phosphine Functionality
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Three new metal-organic frameworks containing a triphenylphosphine moiety, namely [Zn3(tpp)2(DMF)2]·nDMF (1), [Zn3(tpp)2(4,4’-bipy)2]·nDMF (2) and [Zn3(tpp)2(3,3’-bipy)]·nDMF (3), were synthesized using 4,4',4''-phosphan ... -
Molecular Dynamics Studies on the Lipid Transfer Protein - STARD11
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)The STARD11 protein plays a crucial role in the transport of ceramide from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi apparatus. Ceramide is a lipid molecule that is essential for several cellular processes such as cell ... -
Molecular oxygen-assisted in defect-rich ZnO for catalytic depolymerization of polyethylene terephthalate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is the most produced polyester plastic; its waste has a disruptive impact on the environment and ecosystem. Here, we report a catalytic depolymerization of PET into bis(2-hydroxyethyl) ... -
Monitoring of the aqueous phase from hydrothermal liquefaction using GC-MS and qNMR
(Master thesis, 2020-11-03)Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a promising technique used for production of biocrude. Along with the biocrude, there is also produced large amounts of aqueous waste containing high concentrations of both soluble organics ... -
Monte Carlo based mapping of proton microdosimetric properties
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the microdosimetric properties of monoenergetic proton beams. As the primary goal of radiation therapy is to inactivate cancer cells by damaging their DNA, the energy deposition ... -
Morphology control in modulated synthesis of metal-organic framework CPO-27
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The CPO-27/MOF-74 series is among the most investigated metal-organic frameworks because of their usefulness in a diverse range of applications. For specific applications, it will be important to control the shape and size ... -
Multicollinear physical activity accelerometry data and associations to cardiometabolic health: Challenges, pitfalls, and potential solutions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-27)Background: The analysis of associations between accelerometer-derived physical activity (PA) intensities and cardiometabolic health is a major challenge due to multicollinearity between the explanatory variables. This ... -
Multimodal MRI-based Stratification of Motor Phenotypes in Parkinson's Disease
(Master thesis, 2023-06-02)Selv om Parkinsons sykdom ble beskrevet for over 200 år siden, er dens kliniske heterogenitet fortsatt ukjent. Forskning søker nå å stratifisere sykdommen ved å identifisere pasientgrupper med ulike kliniske egenskaper. ... -
Multiscale investigation of CO2 hydrate self-sealing potential for carbon geo-sequestration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Storage of liquid CO2 in shallow geological formations is a recently proposed concept that can facilitate increased storage capacity and improved mobility control. If stored below the gas hydrate stability zone (GHSZ), ... -
