Hurtige utsorteringsmetoder for råneslakt

Det er vedtatt i Stortinget at kastrering av gris ikke lenger vil være tillatt i Norge fra 2009. Problemet knyttet til produksjon av ukastrert hanngris er at en betydelig andel av slaktene vil være beheftet med uønsket rånelukt og rånesmak. Denne egenskap en er i hovedsak knyttet til slaktets inn...

Genetics of boar taint

Male pigs used for pork production are normally castrated very early in life to prevent boar taint or sex taint in the meat. However, castration will be prohibited in the near future and a major challenge for the pig production industries in the next 5-10 years is to decrease the boar taint in m...

Critical regulatory networks for tumor-vascular interactions and activated angiogenesis in urogenital cancers

Angiogenesis and tumor-vascular interactions are essential for tumor spread. We focus on this aspect since anti-angiogenic therapy avoid treatment resistance. Adhesion molecules are important for the ability of tumor cells to invade surrounding tumor stro ma and to enter the vascular systems (blo...

Akrylamid i matvarer - betydning for reproduksjon

Det er nylig avdekket at akrylamid dannes ved varmebehandling av matvarer med høyt stivelsesinnhold. I dyrestudier er det vist at akrylamid gir svulster, binder seg til og skader arvestoffet, og gir reproduksjonsskader. Vi har foreløpig liten kunnskap om i hvilket omfang befolkningen eksponeres f...
