  • Quantifying nitrate content in the Japanese food pattern

    Creator:
    Zucker, Michaela F., Gardner, Elizabeth, Zhang, Lynn, Machha, Ajay, and Hord, Norman
    Abstract:
    The presence of nitrates and nitrites in food is associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal cancer and, in infants, methemoglobinemia. Nitrites are produced endogenously through the oxidation of nitric oxide and through a reduction of nitrate by commensal bacteria in the mouth and gastrointestinal tract. Despite the physiologic roles...

  • Characterizing novel bacterial isolates that inhibit the growth of gall-forming phytopathogenic bacteria

    Creator:
    Belcher, Michael S.
    Abstract:
    Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Rhodococcus fascians are plant pathogenic bacteria that can induce crown and leafy galls on plants, respectively. Infection by these bacteria results in disfigured, unsellable plants, leading to significant economic losses to the nursery industry. A. tumefaciens and R. fascians are capable of infecting a broad range of...

  • Aging Giant Pacific Octopus using Beaks and Stylets for Better Stock Structure Assessment

    Creator:
    Yarbrough, Ashley
    Abstract:
    Despite being a highly charismatic and frequently exhibited organism, Giant Pacific Octopus (Enteroctopus dofleini) population dynamics are poorly understood. Basic monitoring data for this species is limited to bycatch and stomach contents of other fisheries species. An essential step to a better estimation of population size and productivity is to...
