Abstract:: High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry coupled with filtration, centrifugation, and other common sample preparation techniques offers a rapid and robust method for separating and quantifying propofol, a commonly used anesthetic, from human blood and its synthetic analogs. Method development is important for not only optimizing separation and quantification for a...

Abstract:: Background: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) among C. trachomatis strains is common, both in isolates generated in the laboratory and those examined directly from patients. This is a challenging concept because there are very few examples of recent acquisition of foreign DNA by Chlamydia spp. There is no understanding of the...

Creator:: Wustenberg, Liam Robert
Abstract:: High-temperature-short-time pasteurized fluid milk commonly has a shelf life around 16-19 days. The aim of this study was to determine the shelf life of fluid milk in Oregon and characterize the bacterial growth over 23 days. Samples of pasteurized 2% milk were collected at six time points from all nine...

Creator:: Sun, Jing
Abstract:: Seed germination is strictly defined as the physiological events before radicle protrusion through the endosperm cap, the endosperm region adjacent to the radicle tip. There are two opposing forces governing seed germination: the growth potential of the embryo and the mechanical resistance of the endosperm cap. The endosperm cap cell...
