Metabolic Effects in C57BL/6J Mice Fed a High-Fat Western Diet Supplemented with Watermelon Flesh, Rind, and Skin and Other Whole Foods

Creator:: Becraft, Alexandra R.
Abstract:: Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) is rich in lycopene and citrulline and has high phenolic content and antioxidant capacity. Previous studies demonstrate the health benefits of watermelon intake on improved blood pressure regulation along with others. Similarly, cherries, raspberries, walnuts and green tea are rich in anthocyanins, polyphenols, and polyunsaturated fatty acids...

Relative Health Effects of Intake of High-Fat Diets Enriched with Raspberry Fiber and Raspberry Polyphenol in C57B/J6 Mice

Creator:: Sturm, Marlena L.
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Consumption of raspberry products have been observed to produce healthful effects and reduce weight gain and positively shift metabolism in mice fed obesigenic diets. In the past, our lab has successfully shown a reduction in weight gain for mice consuming RPC+HF vs. mice fed HF alone. Currently, there is...

Functional polymers and proteins at interfaces

Creator:: Schilke, Karl F.
Abstract:: Functional polymers and proteins at interfaces and surfaces are of fundamental importance for biomaterials, biocatalysis and microreactor applications. Candida antarctica lipase B immobilized on poly-DL-tryptophan tethers showed 30x higher specific activity in aqueous and non-aqueous media than the same enzyme adsorbed or covalently bound directly to the surface. An excess...

Isolation of a natural antioxidant from shrimp waste

Creator:: Li, Shiao Jing
Abstract:: Shrimp waste samples were extracted with a variety of organic solvents. Each fraction was measured for antioxidant activity by determining the rate of oxidation of β-carotene-linoleic acid in an emulsion system. An ethanol extract exhibited the highest antioxidant activity. Purification of the most active fraction was accomplished by thin layer...

A study of antimutagenicity in yogurt

Creator:: Sudarshan, Nadathur R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to identify antimutagens in yogurt active against the experimental colon carcinogen, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Our initial experiments showed that acetone extracts of yogurt, or milk fermented by various lactic acid bacteria were antimutagenic against MNNG and 3,2'-dimethyl-4-aminobiphenyl (DMAB) in the Ames test (Salmonella typhimurium TA...

The preparation and human taste detection of low degree of polymerization glucose oligomers

Creator:: Pullicin, Alexa J.
Abstract:: There is growing evidence that humans and other animals can taste certain starch hydrolysis products, namely, maltooligosaccharides (MOS), and that their detection is independent of the known sweet receptor, T1R2 T1R3. The overall goal of this study was to further investigate the taste perception of low degree-of-polymerization (DP) MOS in...

Dry-Hop Induced Refermentation: An Overview and an Investigation of Agronomic Influences on Hop Diastatic Potential

Creator:: Stokholm, Arnbjørn
Abstract:: Beer brewing, broadly speaking, consists of two stages, a hot side and a cold side. The hot side occurs in the brewhouse and consists of steeping malted grain in hot water to extract sugars, separating the steeping liquid (wort) from the solids, and boiling the wort with an addition of...

Validation of Baking to Reduce Coliform Counts and Salmonella in Cookie Dough

Creator:: Wilson, Julia M.
Abstract:: This study aimed to determine the efficacy of baking to reduce bacterial populations (an unknown contaminant or Salmonella) in cookie dough. Baking conditions (time and temperature parameters) were selected based on conditions commonly used in industry. The first study (Chapter 2), “Baking as Validation for Control of Coliform Counts in...

Dynamic simulation of drying and quality changes during malt kilning

Creator:: Coonce, Vincent M.
Abstract:: The principal aim of this study was the use and evaluation of dynamic modeling techniques to identify mathematical models for cereal drying rates and quality changes that best describe thin-layer malt drying data. Seven thin-layer malt drying experiments were performed at the Great Western Malting pilot facilities, Vancouver, WA. Malt...

Influence of Biotic and Abiotic Factors on Yeast Communities during Cold Soak and the Consequences for Wine Aroma

Creator:: Johnson, Jared D.
Abstract:: Pre-fermentation cold soak is a winemaking technique used to alter the color, mouthfeel, and aroma of red wine. While it is still debated what impact cold soak has on these wine quality parameters, current thoughts are that resident yeast populations found in fresh grape must play a role in altering...

Investigations of gluten proteins from functional and historical perspective

Creator:: Zhang, Ying
Abstract:: Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the world’s major staple food crops, with flour produced from starchy endosperm being used for breads, cakes, noodles and various other wheat-based foods. The unique bread making properties of wheat are primarily attributed to its gluten-forming storage proteins: gliadins and glutenins. This study investigated...

Oxidative gelation and functionality of wheat flour : effects of grain storage, flour aging, and grain type (hard or soft)

Creator:: Mattson, Jacob E.
Abstract:: This study examined changes in flour functionality during storage of grain and subsequent aging of flour milled from the grain. Freshly harvested grain was stored for 24 weeks and flour milled from the grain at specified time intervals after harvest (0, 3, 6, 12, and 24 weeks). For each milling...

Glutenin macropolymer in salted and alkaline noodles and its relation with dough properties and cooked noodle texture

Creator:: Ong, Yee-Ling
Abstract:: Glutenin protein molecules can form a large "macropolymer" which forms the elastic component of the gluten complex in wheat flour doughs. Little work has been done to investigate relationships between glutenin macropolymer (GMP) and noodle processing. GMP was isolated from flour of 4 wheat varieties; 3 hard- and 1 soft-grained...

Differences in Taste Responses between Tongue Regions

Creator:: Colvin, Julie L.
Abstract:: Due to a combination of misinterpretation and misleading illustration, the premise of a “tongue map”, which indicated that sweetness could only be detected at the front of the tongue and bitterness could only be detected on the back, became wide spread. In fact, all taste qualities can be detected on...
