Pathways and enzymes involved in glucose catabolism by lactic streptococci

Creator:: Nandan, Rajiva
Abstract:: The enzymes and pathways involved in the catabolism of glucose by several strains of Streptococcus diacetilactis, Streptococcus cremoris, and Streptococcus lactis, commonly called the lactic streptococci, were studied. The presence of aldolase, triosephosphate isomerase and alcohol dehydrogenase in these organisms provided evidence for the operation of the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) pathway...

Ecological study of aquatic myxobacteria in a woodland stream

Creator:: Carlson, René Virginia
Abstract:: Most studies of bacteria in water have concerned public health; little attention has been given to organisms which are indigenous to the aquatic environment. Myxobacteria are known to occur in soil, in the marine environment, and several have been studied in relation to diseases of salmonid fishes. However, little information...

When We're Good, It’s All Good: Associations between Marital Quality and Daily Stress Processes

Creator:: Witzel, Dakota D.
Abstract:: Affective reactions to daily stressors are known mechanisms through which daily stressors impact health and well-being (e.g., Charles et al., 2013; Piazza et al., 2013; Sin et al., 2015; Stawski et al., 2019). Therefore, understanding what may promote resilience or vulnerability to such affective reactions is imperative. Theoretical perspectives (Almeida,...

Farm to All Tables: Understanding how Advocacy Coalitions Influence SNP-related Policies for Farmers' Markets

Creator:: Consedine, Meagan
Abstract:: This MPP essay examines how states expand access to nutritious food for low-income families, focusing specifically on policies related to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and farmers’ markets. Coalitions made up of nonprofits focused on hunger, farmers, and health collaborate to impact relevant policies in their respective states. The...

Process Information Modeling for Characterizing Sustainability Performance of Cyclic Manufacturing Processes

Creator:: Manoharan, Sriram
Abstract:: Sustainability has become an unprecedented priority in global manufacturing due to the growing concerns over issues such as an aging workforce, environmental degradation, and public health. The simultaneous consideration of the economic, environmental, and social aspects – often referred to as the “three pillars of sustainability” – is crucial to...

Meal management practices used in the homes of Oregon State University home economics graduates

Creator:: Hill, Marlene Evans
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine the meal management practices used in the homes of selected home economics graduates. A total of 296 questionnaires were mailed to Oregon State University home economics graduates for the years 1945, 1950, 1955, and 1960. Forty-nine percent (146) of the questionnaires were...

Direct shear testing of UO₂ sphere-pac nuclear reactor fuel

Creator:: Jenks, Richard P.
Abstract:: The design, development, and utilization of a direct shear test apparatus is presented in this thesis. The effectiveness of the device for determining the friction angle stress state parameter is studied. Two materials, alumina and uranium dioxide, were tested. Alumina microspheres were employed in the initial experiments to simulate the...

Continuous flow synthesis of lead sulfide and copper indium diselenide nanocrystals

Creator:: Knapp, Michael W.
Abstract:: The use of size and shape tunable quantum confinement nanocrystals has many potential applications for use in semiconductors, optics and sensors. The synthesis of lead sulfide (PbS) and copper indium diselenide (CuInSe₂) nanoparticles are of particular interest for use in semiconductor, optoelectronics and bio-medical applications. The continuous synthesis of lead...

Towards autonomous irrigation : comparison of two moisture sensing technologies, irrigation distribution analysis, and wireless network performance at an ornamental container nursery

Creator:: Bailey, Daniel R.
Abstract:: As ornamental container nurseries face diminishing water allocations, many are looking to automated irrigation solutions to increase their water application efficiency. This thesis presents the findings of a study conducted at a commercial container nursery to determine 1) whether a capacitance or load cell sensor was better suited for monitoring...
