  • Bacteriophages for Leuconostoc oenos : a survey of Oregon wineries

    Creator:
    Eschelbach, Matthew Michael
    Abstract:
    A study of malolactic bacteria of the Leuconostoc genus, especially L. oenos, and their bacteriophages was conducted. A search for the presence of infectious bacteriophages in grapes, musts, and juices employed in malo-lactic fermentation (MLF) was conducted; no evidence, either physical or biological, was found for the existence of these...

  • Synthesis and oligomerization of y,4-Diamino-2-oxo-1(2H)-pyrimidinepentanoic acid

    Creator:
    Nelson, Jeffrey Stephen
    Abstract:
    Described herein is the synthesis of an uncharged stereoregular oligonucleotide analog consisting of cytosine bases linked at specific intervals to a polyamide backbone derived from (L)-glutamic acid. Preparation of this analog entailed borane reduction of (L)- pyroglutamic acid to give optically pure lactam alcohol 9. Tosylation and alkylation with cytosine...

  • Development of a process for production of cantaloupe juice concentrate and determination of its composition and quality

    Creator:
    Galeb, Abduljalil Derhm Saeed
    Abstract:
    Fresh ripe, cantaloupes were processed into juice and juice concentrate. Processing trials were conducted on fresh and frozen fruits with and without rind. The effects of maceration enzymes and fining agents on yield and quality were investigated. Compositional measurement included °Brix, pH, titratable acidity, formol values, ascorbic acid content, total...

  • The effect of two levels of glucose ingestion on plasma pyridoxal 5'-phosphate concentration

    Creator:
    Huang, Ying-Hui
    Abstract:
    This study was designed to evaluate the effect of glucose on plasma pyridoxal 5'- phosphate (PLP) concentration. The objective was to determine whether there was a negative relationship between glucose ingestion and plasma PLP concentration and to evaluate the possible mechanism of decreased PLP after acute glucose ingestion. Seven healthy...

  • Phenotypic analysis of human MLH1 variants for DNA mismatch repair

    Creator:
    Hippchen, Karen Jean
    Abstract:
    DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is an evolutionarily conserved process used by cells to decrease mutation rates, thereby increasing genetic stability and reducing cancer risk. Germline mutations in the MMR gene MLH1 have been identified in Lynch Syndrome patients, and in many cases are suspected but not confirmed as causative for...
