Preparation and modification of cellooligosaccharides

Creator:: Akpinar, Ozlem
Abstract:: Cellooligosaccharides are the reaction intermediates produced during the hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose. Hence, they have the same chemical structure as cellulose, just shorter chain lengths. Cellooligosaccharides up to DP eight are soluble in water. The soluble cellooligosaccharides can be used "as is" in the food industry as non-digestible oligosaccharides...

Dairy Cattle Nutrition and its Effect on Production, Milk, and Human Health

Creator:: Swanson, Katherine L.
Abstract:: As the world population continues to grow we must look for smarter and more sustainable ways to feed everyone. Milk is the first food humans consume and is a good source of protein, fat, and carbohydrates. The following studies sought to determine the effect of feeding blackberry pomace as a...

Molecular mechanism of germination of Clostridium perfringens spores

Creator:: Paredes-Sabja, Daniel
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is the causative agent of a wide variety of diseases in animals and humans. C. perfringens can produce more than 15 toxins. However, individual strains produce a subset of these toxins. Although a small percentage of C. perfringens isolates (mostly belonging to type A) produce C. perfringens enterotoxin...

Management Strategies to Improve Immune Function and Performance of Feeder Cattle

Creator:: Lippolis, Katana D.
Abstract:: Three experiments evaluated the effects of different management strategies on immune function and performance of feeder cattle. The objective of experiment 1 was to compare the effects of anticipating, delaying, or vaccinating against Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) at the time of weaning and feedlot entry on growth, DMI, and plasma...

Effect of Agronomically Selenium Biofortified Hay on Oxidative Status, Metabolic and Inflammatory Biomarkers, and Immune Response of Transition Primiparous Dairy Cows and Se Transfer and Glutathione Peroxidase Activity in their Calves

Creator:: Jaaf, Shana S.
Abstract:: During the peripartum period (3 weeks before through 3 weeks after calving, a.k.a. “transition”), high producing dairy cows experience, among others, , oxidative stress and immune suppression that compromise performance and increased incidence of diseases.Among trace minerals, supplementation of Selenium (Se) can help to improve the transition by enhancing glutathione...

Surimi wash water treatment by chitosan-alginate complexes : effect of molecular weight and degree of deacetylation of chitosan and nutritional evaluation of solids recovered by the treatment

Creator:: Wibowo, Singgih
Abstract:: Soluble surimi wash water (SWW) proteins could be recovered using chitosan (Chi) complexed with alginate (Chi-Alg) generating co-products for feed formulations. Chi with a degree of deacetylation (DD) of 84% complexed with Alg at a mixing ratio (MR) of 0.2 was used to study Chi-Alg concentration and treatment time protein...

Enrichment of Live Prey with Microparticles for the Enhanced Delivery of Water-soluble Nutrients to Marine Fish Larvae

Creator:: Hawkyard, Donald Matthew
Abstract:: In the wild, marine fish larvae feed on copepods and other planktonic organisms. Copepods are often considered the "gold standard" for meeting the nutritional needs of cultured marine fish larvae; however, in captivity, marine fish larvae are generally fed cultured live prey, i.e. rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis) and/or Artemia sp., until...

Salt and polyelectrolyte affect on food colloid function : polygalacturonic acid and egg albumen case studies

Creator:: Chen, Chi-Shen
Abstract:: The primary purpose of this study was to try to (1) provide information on the chemical nature, including turbidity formation, of polygalacturonic acid in different concentrations of NaCl solution. (2) use turbidity formation characteristics to develop an assay for determining the activities polygalacturonic acid depolymerases by using a polyelectrolyte. (3)...

Nutritional regulation of adipocyte differentiation in animals

Creator:: Brandebourg, Terry
Abstract:: The incidence of obesity has increased in the U.S. until an obesity epidemic now exists. American consumers are acutely aware of the consequences of obesity and are increasingly associating the consumption of high-fat foods with having a negative impact upon their health. This has in turn forced producers to grow...
