Analytical approach to the quantitative analysis of silicon in plants : its application to plant silica extraction

Creator:: Boone, Carmen E.
Abstract:: The literature available on the silica content of herbaceous biomass, and its relative mobility in leaching/extraction systems, includes studies that have employed several different methods for silica quantification. This makes comparison of the data difficult. The objective of this thesis research was to determine the quantitative relationships between the measured...

Assessing the impact of temperature on grape phenolic metabolism

Creator:: Cohen, Seth D.
Abstract:: Many climatic factors influence grape berry composition including nutrient status, water availability, biotic stress, sun exposure and temperature. Previous research examined the effects of many factors listed above and much progress has been made. It is often difficult, however, to separate effects that typically confound each other, such as sun...

Characterization by optical methods of the heat denaturation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as affected by protein concentration, pH, ionic strength and sugar concentration

Creator:: Kongraksawech, Teepakorn
Abstract:: The thermal denaturation of proteins has been extensively studied using several methods including differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). A custom-built optical system was used to study thermal effects on protein as an alternative method to DSC measurements. It was used to investigate the thermal stability of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with...

Effect of berry integrity on proanthocyanidin extraction during wine production

Creator:: Cerpa-Calderon, Fiorella Karen
Abstract:: Proanthocyanidins are a grape-derived phenolic class of compound that provide wine with bitterness and astringency. Because of this, proanthocyanidins are considered to be essential components of wine quality. Proanthocyanidins are localized in the seed, skin and stem tissue of the grape berry and the composition of proanthocyanidins will vary depending...

Efficacy of electrolyzed oxidizing water and ozonated water for microbialdecontamination of fresh strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa)

Creator:: Udompijitkul, Pathima
Abstract:: The objectives of this project were to evaluate the efficacies of electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) and ozonated waters as antimicrobial agents for enhancing the microbiological safety of fresh strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa). The influence of sodium chloride (NaCl) concentrations used for preparing EO water was evaluated on their bactericidal activities against...

Electrolyzed oxidizing water treatment as a post-harvest process for controlling histamine formation in fish

Creator:: Phuvasate, Sureerat
Abstract:: Scombroid poisoning, caused by histamine intoxication, is one of the most prevalent illnesses associated with seafood consumption in the United States. The illness is usually accompanied with a variety of symptoms, such as rash, nausea, diarrhea, flushing, sweating, and headache. Incidence of scombroid poisoning has been consistently reported in the...

Evaluation of the off-flavor in English sole (Parophrys vetulus) using descriptive analysis techniques and consumer testing

Creator:: Geise, Laura Ann
Abstract:: English sole (Parophrys vetulus) is a flatfish found in abundance in the Pacific Ocean and is part of the Pacific Northwest's and California's commercial trawl fishery. Stock levels of this fish are at all time highs but there are decreased landings due to low demand and acceptability. With new regulations...

Flavor composition of transgenic raspberry bushy dwarf virus-resistant 'Meeker' raspberries

Creator:: Malowicki, Sarah Marie-Mahler
Abstract:: Raspberries have been popular since the time of the ancient Greeks. Red raspberries are cultivated throughout the world, particularly in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and Canada. The raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV) causes significant reduction in yield and crumbly fruit in raspberries, blackberries and raspberry-blackberry hybrids....

Foam enhancing properties of hop bitter acids and propylene glycol alginate

Creator:: Kunimune, Takeshi
Abstract:: The following two projects have been carried out to clarify the impact of these foam stabilizers, and to compare their foam stabilizing power to one another as well as the cling ability. The first project investigated the impacts of four commercially available hop- derived foam stabilizers; iso-alpha-acid (Iso), rho(dyhydro)-iso-alpha-acid (Rho),...

Hop bittering compounds and their impact on peak bitterness on lager beer

Creator:: Fritsch, Annette N.
Abstract:: Hop derived bitter compounds, including alpha-acids, reduced and non-reduced iso-alpha-acids, were evaluated for their contribution to peak bitter intensity in lager beer. Alpha-acids are the precursors to the major bittering components in beer (iso-alpha-acids). Typically, alpha-acids do not survive the brewing process, but if a product is dry-hopped, they may...
