Ruminal Biodegradation of Heterocyclic Toxic Compounds

Creator:: Tanaree, Dan D.
Abstract:: Cyclic nitramines are a class of compounds that include most of the commonly used explosives today. These are among the most common toxicants released into the environment as a result of human activity, generated on military ranges, battlefields, and production sites. Of these, hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5- triazine (RDX) is of particular interest,...

Distribution of Clostridium botulinum type E in fish, shellfish and the marine environment of the Pacific Northwest, and protein patterns of the toxigenic and non-toxigenic stains

Creator:: Craig, James Morrison
Abstract:: Interest in the distribution of Clostridium botulinum type E was heightened by the sudden outbreak of human botulism from smoked whitefish chubs and canned tuna fish in 1963. The question arose as to how widely the organism is distributed among fish and shellfish in the Northwest and what potential hazard...

Ecophylogenetic Characterization of the Gut Microbiome of At-risk Companion and Food Animals

Creator:: Kirchoff, Nicole S.
Abstract:: Agricultural and companion animals are integral to our way of life as they provide us with nourishment, financial resources, transportation, and companionship. However, pets, managed animals in the agricultural industry, as well as wild populations of food animals are all subject to health and mortality risks. The gut microbiome is...

Sterol assimilation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Lewis, Thomas A.
Abstract:: Sterols of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are found in membranes with a free C-3,β hydroxyl group or stored in lipid droplets as esters of long-chain fatty acids. We have examined the distribution of cholesterol into free sterol and steryl ester pools of a sterol auxotrophic strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Varying...

Harnessing Heterogeneity in Human Gut Microbiome Data

Creator:: Tataru, Christine
Abstract:: The focus of this thesis is to design, characterize, and apply novel computational methods and molecular systems to interrogate heterogeneous human gut microbiome-related phenomena. In Chapter 2, I design, implement, and characterize a method for embedding co-occurrence patterns derived from massive 16s amplicon datasets. I use this method to 1....

Novel Experimental Designs and Mathematical Models to Study Fecal Indicator Bacteria Persistence in Surface Water

Creator:: Brooks, Lauren
Abstract:: High counts of fecal indicators, used to signal the potential presence of pathogens associated with untreated waste, result in the classification of water bodies throughout the United States as impaired. Nonpoint sources of unknown origin that contribute to fecal contamination make management of impaired waters challenging, as they are difficult...

Impacts of Environmental Change on a Newly-characterized Symbiosis between a Novel Bacterial Parasite, Genus Aquarickettsia, and the Coral Acropora cervicornis

Creator:: Klinges, J. Grace
Abstract:: Coral reef ecosystems continue to be significantly altered by disease epizootics, but why some host populations remain resistant while others succumb to outbreaks remains unknown. Research across diverse animal and plant host systems has revealed that disease severity is strongly influenced by host genetics and by environmental influences on both...

Assessing disease impacts of hatcheries on downstream salmonids in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Jakaitis, Michelle
Abstract:: Hatcheries are often perceived as a source of pathogen amplification, potentially increasing disease risk to free-ranging populations; at the same time, free-ranging fishes may introduce pathogens into hatcheries through untreated water sources. Many pathogens exist naturally within the environment (with the exception of introduced pathogens) and the presence of a...
