      The present study investigates the potential long-term physiological effects on maturing polar cod (<i>Boreogadus saida</i>), an Arctic key species, after an acute exposure (48 h) to environmentally realistic concentrations of either mechanically dispersed oil (MDO), chemically dispersed oil (CDO) or burned oil residues (BO) (N = 58–60 per treatment). Following exposure, fish were monitored in a ...
    • Effects of mechanically and chemically dispersed oil on the osmo- and ion-regulatory capacity of juvenile lumpsucker (Cyclopterus lumpus) 

      Palerud, Jocelyn Hernandez (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2015-02-15)
      The effects of 48 hours exposure to mechanically and chemically dispersed oil on juvenile lumpsuckers, as well as the use of gill EROD activity and bile PAH metabolites as potential biomarkers were assessed in this study. This was done by measuring the gill EROD activity, bile PAH metabolites, plasma osmolality, plasma chloride concentration, and gill Na+/K+ATPase activity. The mechanical and ...
    • Impact of CRISPR/Cas9 on the expressions of selected immune genes in salmonid cells 

      Palerud, Jocelyn Hernandez (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-07-05)
      The discovery of CRISPR/Cas9 as a gene editing tool has revolutionized the field of molecular biology due to its huge potential for innovative applications. However, the biosafety concerns on CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing like off-target mutations, triggering of cell death, and induction of cellular stress need to be elucidated. This thesis aims to investigate the impacts of electroporation ...
