Macrophage infection with wild-type Mycobacterium avium or isogenic attenuated PPE mutant revealed differences in gene expression and mycobacterial vacuole proteins

Creator:: Jha, Samradhni
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium is a ubiquitous environmental organism found in water and soil. It can cause disease in patients with pre-existing pulmonary conditions, immunocompromised patients with the most prevalent being AIDS patients, as well as apparently healthy people. Studies have indicated that, upon macrophage uptake, Al. avium prevents phagosome-lysosome fusion, thus...

Characterization of germination of Clostridium perfringens spores from various sources

Creator:: Alnoman, Maryam M.
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is a pathogenic anaerobic bacterium able to produce more than 17 toxins, allowing C. perfringins to cause a wide variety of diseases in humans and animals. Beside toxins production, C. perfringens able to form a highly resistance spores can survive in the environments for years. These spores are...

Serum biochemistry and immunoglobulin dynamics in multi-day endurance racing horses

Creator:: Esser, Melissa M.
Abstract:: Endurance riding reflects a relatively new sport among equine athletic disciplines and is growing rapidly. Of all the equine athletic disciplines, endurance riding is the most closely interrelated with veterinary assessment and control to ensure that horses are not exercised beyond their athletic capacity. As endurance riding competition has evolved,...

Establishment of an in vitro System for Studying Mycobacterium avium Protein Secretion

Creator:: Chinison, Jessica J.
Abstract:: Cases of pulmonary diseases caused by Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) have increased over the years and have become a major health concern in Europe, Asia, and the United States. MAC, comprised of M. avium species and M. intracellulare, are found everywhere in the environment: in water sources and the soil....

Characterization of germinant receptors in Clostridium perfringens non-food-borne isolates

Creator:: Banawas, Saeed S.
Abstract:: C. perfringens is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, anaerobic pathogenic bacterium capable of causing a wide variety of diseases in both humans and animals. However, the two most common illnesses in humans are C. perfringens type A food poisoning (FP) and non-food-borne (NFB) gastrointestinal (GI) illnesses . These two major diseases are...

Approaches to The Optimization of Honey-Based Fermentations

Creator:: Kartik, Kritika
Abstract:: The fermentation of honey-based musts has been a feature of civilization for millennia. Typically comprised of 75-90% (w/w) simple (i.e. fermentable) sugars, the glucose and fructose present are readily fermented by either pitched or adventitious micro-organisms. Nevertheless, despite its venerable heritage, honey-based fermentations are prone to inconsistency, and it is...

Flavor development of cheddar cheese under different manufacturing practices

Creator:: Lemus, Freddy Mauricio
Abstract:: Cheddar Cheese samples (good cheese, weak cheese, cheese made with pasteurized milk, cheese made with heat-shocked milk, cheese from production plant A, cheese from production plant B, cheese made with adjunct culture, and cheese made without adjunct culture), were evaluated during the ripening stage. Proteolysis was studied by a fractionation...

Applications of GnRH immunization in domestic dogs

Creator:: Donovan, Caitlin Elizabeth
Abstract:: Reproductive function in the dog is controlled by feedback mechanisms that involve the hypothalamus, the anterior pituitary gland, and the gonads. Surgical gonad removal, a common procedure performed in dogs for the purposes of sterilization, disrupts the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and results in permanently elevated concentrations of gonadotropins. Manipulation of...

Effects of prostaglandin F2alpha on neutrophil populations, uterine health and reproductive performance in dairy cows, Effects of prostaglandin F₂α on neutrophil populations, uterine health and reproductive performance in dairy cows

Creator:: Lulay, Adrienne McCracken
Abstract:: Incidences of uterine infections in dairy cattle are high between parturition and Day 21 postpartum. Dairy cows with uterine infections are at risk for prolonged periods of days open and multiple services before becoming pregnant. Neutrophils are the first wave of immune system defense against uterine contamination. Neutrophil function seems...

Effects of camelina meal supplementation on ruminal forage degradability, performance, and physiological responses of beef cattle

Creator:: Cappellozza, Bruno Ieda
Abstract:: Three experiments compared ruminal, physiological, and performance responses of beef steers consuming hay ad libitum and receiving grain-based supplements with (CAM) or without (CO) inclusion of camelina meal. In Exp. 1, 9 steers fitted with ruminal cannulas received CAM (2.04 kg of DM/d) or CO (2.20 kg of DM/d). Steers...
