31P solid-state NMR on skeletal muscle of wild and farmed Atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Over the past 50 years, 31P NMR has proven a powerful tool for obtaining information on cellular biochemistry. Here we use this technique for the first time to study intracellular phosphorous metabolites in skeletal muscle ... -
4-Alkylated Silver–N-Heterocyclic Carbene (NHC) Complexes with Cytotoxic Effects in Leukemia Cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-08-06)Computational chemistry has shown that backbone-alkylated imidazoles ought to be efficient ligands for transition metal catalysts with improved carbene-to-metal donation. In this work, such alkylated imidazoles were ... -
9-Acridinemethanamine and Acridine-9-Carboxaldehyde as Potential Fluorescence Lifetime pH Indicators
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A significant challenge concerning the development of fluorescence lifetime (FL) based pH sensors is the paucity of fluorophores with sufficiently large FL variation with pH. Acridine is amongst the indicators with highest ... -
A developed 3(4) step synthesis strategy for radiolabeling Flumazenil with carbon-11 in the carbonyl position and establishment of a process for [11C]-methylation of Flumazenil
(Master thesis, 2023-06-02)Even though carbon-11 has some very interesting features for PET imaging, its potential has still not been fully exploited. Reasons for this could be that its short half-life requires an efficient and fast synthesis route, ... -
A study in environmental chemistry: natural and anthropogenic radionuclides in sediment cores from the Norwegian Trench and the Vefsnfjord
(Master thesis, 2019-06-22)In this work the anthropogenic radionuclide Cs-137 and the naturally occurring radionuclides Ra-226, Ra-228, Pb-210 and K-40 have been studied in sediment cores from the Norwegian Trench and from the Vefsnfjord in Nordland. ... -
A Study of Salmon Pituitary Tissue using Magic Angle Spinning 1H-NMR

Accelerated aging of polyvinyl chloride microplastics by UV irradiation: Aging characteristics, filtrate analysis, and adsorption behavior
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The extensive use of plastic products by people has led to the prevalence of microplastics (MPs) in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. MPs will be able to undergo multiple aging processes and release dissolved organic ... -
Accelerometer epoch setting is decisive for associations between physical activity and metabolic health in children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)When analysing physical activity (PA) levels using accelerometry, the epoch setting is critical to capture intensity-specific PA correctly. The aim of the present study was to investigate the PA intensity signatures related ... -
Active Smarter Kids (ASK): Rationale and design of a cluster-randomized controlled trial investigating the effects of daily physical activity on children's academic performance and risk factors for non-communicable diseases
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-07-28)Background Evidence is emerging from school-based studies that physical activity might favorably affect children’s academic performance. However, there is a need for high-quality studies to support this. Therefore, the ... -
Acylated Flavone O-Glucuronides from the Aerial Parts of Nepeta curviflora
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Nepeta curviflora Boiss. (Syrian catnip) is native to the Middle East. This medicinal plant is commonly used against nervous disorders, rheumatic pains, and high blood pressure. Herbal infusions prepared from various Nepeta ... -
