  • Selenium metabolism in the chick and effects of Vitamin E and selenium on heat stress

    Creator:
    Alayan, Mohammad Atta
    Abstract:
    An in vitro study was conducted to investigate the metabolism and distribution of Se⁷⁵-selenite and Se⁷⁵-selenomethionine (SEM) in chick blood. Se⁷⁵-selenite is taken up by RBC (13% within 20 minutes) and expelled into the plasma to become bound to proteins. In contrast, Se⁷⁵-SEM showed a more gradual and continuous buildup...

  • Genetics of tocopherol composition in sunflower seed

    Creator:
    Hass, Catherine G.
    Abstract:
    Tocopherols are plant secondary metabolites that are known collectively as vitamin E. Tocopherol compounds act as potent antioxidants by quenching free radicals and protecting fatty acids from oxidative damage. In humans (in vivo) tocopherols protect membrane lipids from breaking down, while in oils (in vitro) tocopherols protect fatty acids from...

  • John Turberville Needham (1713-1781) and eighteenth century theories of generation

    Creator:
    Benson, Keith Rodney
    Abstract:
    There were two viable theories of generation, preformation and epigenesis, existing in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries. Due to their irreconcilable nature, they were often at loggerheads during this time interval. The status of these generation theories can be effectively understood in terms of Thomas Kuhn's conception of preparadigm science....

  • The effects of differing hazelnut concentrations in hog finishing rations with respect to pork shelf-life and fatty acid composition

    Creator:
    Parker, Nathan B.
    Abstract:
    Commercial hog diets in the United States commonly contain lipid sources high in polyunsaturated fatty acids, most notably linoleic acid (18:2). This may result in greater deposits of linoleic acid in pork adipose tissue, contributing to an increased potential for lipid oxidation, high n-6/n-3 fatty acid ratio and increased fat...

  • Feasibility of Thermal Restoration by Groundwater Additions in the Middle Fork John Day

    Creator:
    Hale, Abigail E.
    Abstract:
    Survival of ecological systems pivot on critical moments. In the arid John Day Basin of Eastern Oregon, extensive restoration of the stream and floodplain focused on supporting salmon has been ongoing for the past 20 years, but recurring short periods of extreme temperature increase and low flows result in mortality...

  • Multiscale assessment of thermal patterns and the distribution of chinook salmon in the John Day River Basin, Oregon

    Creator:
    Torgersen, Christian E.
    Abstract:
    This study examined the distribution and behavior of adult spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) related to patterns of stream temperature and physical habitat at channel unit, reach, and basin-wide spatial scales in both a wilderness stream and a disturbed stream in the John Day River basin in northeastern Oregon. Thermal...

  • Migration of E. coli and solutes to tile drains via preferential and matrix flow

    Creator:
    Moreno, Daniel
    Abstract:
    The extent of agricultural drainage has created concern for its potential undesirable effects on surface water quality. Land applications of liquid manure on tile drain fields have the potential to transport solutes and bacteria to the drains following precipitation or irrigation events and many times are directly sent to a...
