Works with

At present I work with:

1) Slaughter of fish, especially salmon, by the use of carbon monoxide. The research focus on the effect of CO on quality and binding to heme proteins, especially neuroglobulin.

2) Quality of fish

3) Interaction between heme proteins and PUFA, especially EPA and DHA.

4) Mitochondrial respiration post mortem in animals. This in collaboration with prof Bjørg Egelandsdal at UMB.

Abbreviated Curriculum Vitae
Erik Slinde
Principal Scientist, prof. dr. philos., Institute of Marine Research

1970-1977 Research associate at the Biochemical Department, University of Bergen.
1978-1985 Research Scientist at MATFORSK, ÅS
1986-1990 Research and Managing director Intervet Norbio, Bergen
1991-1994 Research director, MATFORSK, Ås
1994-2000 Research director, Department of Aquaculture, Institute of Marine Research, Bergen
2000- Principal scientist, Institute of Marine Research, Bergen.

I have been prof. II in “Meat technology” 1985-86 and at present in “Processing of fish/fish technology” 2008- at the University of Life Science at Ås. At the University of Bergen I have been prof. II in “Biochemistry” (process chemistry) from 1990, from 1994 in “Biotechnology” and from 1999-2002 in “Quality and improvement of fish”. I have broad experience in education and guiding of students through master and doctorial thesis. I have broad experience as an administrator both from the private and governmental sector. Through my patents I have learned commercialization of ideas, and due to this I have been both president and board member in a number of small companies. I have a number of publications (70 refereed on the ISI Web), proceedings and abstracts. I have evaluated/refereed publications, Ph.D. thesis and application for grants and positions. I have been president of The Norwegian Biochemical Society, and I am a member of The Norwegian Academy of Technological Sciences (NTVA).
