1. Nitrate stable isotopes and major ions in snow and ice from Svalbard
Abstract : Increasing atmospheric reactive nitrogen (Nr), as consequence of human activities, has generated accumulation of nitrate (NO3-) in Arctic regions. The Arctic has fragile nitrogen limited ecosystems that can be altered by increases of dry or wet deposition of Nr. READ MORE

2. Dietary inorganic nitrate : role in exercise physiology, cardiovascular and metabolic regulation
Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is a ubiquitous signaling molecule with a vast number of tasks in the body, including regulation of cardiovascular and metabolic function. A decreased bioavailability of NO is a central event in disorders such as hypertension and metabolic syndrome. READ MORE

3. Nitrate, Nitrite and Nitric Oxide in Gastric Mucosal Defense
Abstract : The human stomach normally contains high levels of bioactive nitric oxide (NO). This NO derives from salivary nitrate (NO3-) that is converted to nitrite (NO2-) by oral bacteria and thereafter non-enzymatically reduced in the acidic gastric lumen to NO. READ MORE

4. Biogeochemical Processes in Denitrifying Woodchip Bioreactors and their Application in the Mining Industry
Abstract : This thesis evaluates passive denitrifying woodchip bioreactors (DWBs) for the removal of nitrate (NO3-) in neutral pH mine drainage, where water is passed through a carbon-rich porous matrix (e.g. woodchips) for the reduction of NO3- to nitrogen gas. READ MORE

5. Nitrogen-containing products from atmospheric oxidation of volatile organic compounds
Abstract : Atmospheric oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) produces a wide range of oxygenated organic products that lead to formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA). SOA represents a significant fraction of the tropospheric aerosol that influence climate and human health. READ MORE
