Accelerated hydrolysis method for producing partially degraded polyester microplastic fiber reference materials
Sarno, Antonio; Olafsen, Kjell; Kubowicz, Stephan; Karimov, Fuad; Sait, Shannen; Sørensen, Lisbet; Booth, Andy (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Microplastic fibers (MPFs) from textiles significantly contribute to the microplastic (MP) load in many environmental matrices and have been shown to negatively impact the organisms therein. Most fate and effect studies ... -
Co-production of future scenarios of policy action plans in a science-policy-industry interface – The case of microfibre pollution from waste water treatment plants in Norway
Tiller, Rachel; Booth, Andy; Kubowicz, Stephan; Jahren, Susie (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)One of the ambitions of the UN Decade of Ocean Science is stakeholder interaction to co-produce new ideas and solutions for policy action plans to ensure that environmental challenges are mitigated in a timely manner. ... -
Copper enrichment on aluminium surfaces after electropolishing and its effect on electron imaging and diffraction
Wenner, Sigurd; Lervik, Adrian; Thronsen, Elisabeth; Marioara, Calin Daniel; Kubowicz, Stephan; Holmestad, Randi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Electropolishing is the most common method of preparing samples of aluminium alloys for scanning and transmission electron microscopy, as it yields a good surface quality and large flat, electron-transparent areas. Like ... -
The effect of long-term use on the Catch efficiency of Biodegradable gillnets
Grimaldo, Eduardo; Herrmann, Bent; Jacques, Nadine; Kubowicz, Stephan; Cerbule, Kristine; Su, Biao; Larsen, Roger B.; Vollstad, Jørgen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The effect of long-term use on the catch efficiency of biodegradable gillnets was investigated during commercial fishing trials and in controlled lab aging tests. The relative catch efficiency between biodegradable and ... -
Microplastic fibres from synthetic textiles: Environmental degradation and additive chemical content
Sait, Shannen; Sørensen, Lisbet; Kubowicz, Stephan; Vike-Jonas, Kristine; Villa Gonzales, Susana; Asimakopoulos, Alexandros; Booth, Andy (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Microplastic fibres (MPFs) often make up the largest fraction of microplastic pollution in aquatic environments, yet little is known about their degradative fate and persistence. This study investigates the environmentally ... -
Nanoparticle-stabilized microbubbles for multimodal imaging and drug delivery
Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Hansen, Rune; Berg, Sigrid; Åslund, Andreas; Glomm, Wilhelm; Eggen, Siv; Schmid, Ruth; Johnsen, Heidi; Kubowicz, Stephan; Snipstad, Sofie; Sulheim, Einar; Hak, Sjoerd; Singh, Gurvinder; McDonagh, Birgitte Hjelmeland; Blom, Hans; Davies, Ruth Catharina de Lange; Stenstad, Per Martin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Microbubbles (MBs) are routinely used as contrast agents for ultrasound imaging. The use of ultrasound in combination with MBs has also attracted attention as a method to enhance drug delivery. We have developed a technology ... -

Lindberg, Helene Øyangen; Grytli, Tuva; Kubowicz, Stephan; Karl, Christian; Lund, Henrik Brynthe; Irgens, Mathias; Kenzhegaliyeva, Assiya (SINTEF rapporter;00797, Research report, 2023)This report presents 25 concepts for making plastics from aquaculture more circular. The concepts are based on industry initiatives, circular business models and management principles. Furthermore, the report describes ... -
Surface Modification of Ethylene Propylene Diene Terpolymer Rubber by Plasma Polymerization Using Organosilicon Precursors
Karl, Christian; Rahimi, Wehid; Kubowicz, Stephan; Lang, Andrej; Geisler, Harald; Giese, Ulrich (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The effect of Atmospheric Pressure Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (AP-PECVD) on Ethylene Propylene Diene Terpolymer (EPDM) with the precursors hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) on ...
