Analytical approach to the quantitative analysis of silicon in plants : its application to plant silica extraction

Creator:: Boone, Carmen E.
Abstract:: The literature available on the silica content of herbaceous biomass, and its relative mobility in leaching/extraction systems, includes studies that have employed several different methods for silica quantification. This makes comparison of the data difficult. The objective of this thesis research was to determine the quantitative relationships between the measured...

Characterization of Bloomy Rind Cheese Recipes and the Impact of High Pressure Processing (HPP) on Cheese Quality

Creator:: Batty, Danton K. C.
Abstract:: Bloomy rind cheeses, including Camembert and Brie type cheeses, are highly susceptible to contamination by environmental pathogens during their manufacture and ripening. These cheeses undergo many physiochemical changes during ripening that provides these pathogens with a suitable environment to grow. One example of this change is an increase of pH...

The Examination of Escherichia coli Contamination via Agricultural Water Applications and Survival During Pre-Harvest Field Curing of Dry Bulb Onions

Creator:: Racine, Jason R.
Abstract:: 2020 and 2021 brought the first reported outbreaks of salmonellosis epidemiologically linked to dry bulb onions in the United States. Outbreak investigations were not able to implicate a specific source of the contamination but speculated that contaminated water was a significant contributor. The Produce Safety Rule established minimum standards for...

An Exploration of Cheese Safety Parameters and Aging as Mitigation Strategy for Foodborne Pathogens in Cheese

Creator:: Riesgaard, Brandon
Abstract:: Pasteurization is an effective method of reducing risks associated with foodborne pathogens in raw milk. Cheese made from raw milk has a higher potential to harbor harmful bacterial pathogens. However, some cheesemakers prefer to use unpasteurized milk to preserve the natural microflora present in the raw milk and to prevent...

Influence of Processing Parameters on the Inactivation of Salmonella spp. During the Cooking Step of Jerky Production Using a Commercial-Scale Dehydrator

Creator:: Minarsich, Joey
Abstract:: United States Department of Agriculture-Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA-FSIS) guidelines for beef jerky processing support producers' ability to satisfy the performance standard requirements for achieving a 5-log reduction in Salmonella and E. coli O157:H7. The first compliance guide for jerky processors was created in response to several Salmonella outbreaks...

Metabolic Effects in C57B/6J Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet Supplemented With Walnuts, Raspberries and Other Whole Foods

Creator:: Miranda-Garcia, Omar
Abstract:: Health benefits obtained from consumption of fruits and vegetables have the potential to improve the lifestyle of individuals. The walnut is a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-rich whole food that is readily available in the U.S and has been shown to potentially reduce risk of Metabolic Syndrome. Furthermore, consumption of polyphenol...

Effects of refrigeration storage and processing technologies on the bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacities of blackberries ('Marion' and 'Evergreen')

Creator:: Wu, Ruyi
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to investigate the effects of refrigeration storage and processing technologies on the quality and nutraceutical benefit of blackberries. 'Marion' and 'Evergreen', the two major blackberry varieties in Oregon, were evaluated in this study. For refrigeration storage, fresh fruit were packed in clam-shell containers right...

Impact of Butterfat Content and Composition on the Quality of Laminated Pastries

Creator:: Ramirez, Sebastian
Abstract:: Butter has long been the premium choice for producing pastries such as Danish and croissants. Its inclusion has consistently delivered characteristically light and airy crumbs with beautifully flaky crust. Once considered a delicacy, pastries have now become innocuous in our everyday lives. Once requiring a skillful hand to sculpt and...

The influence of polyphenols and humulinones on bitterness in dry-hopped beer

Creator:: Parkin, Ellen Jane
Abstract:: This research sought to determine the origin of bitterness as a result of dry-hopping. An unhopped ale was dry-hopped and examined in the controlled dry-hop experiment and commercial beers were examined for chemical changes from dry-hopping in the commercially dry-hopped beer survey. This thesis work suggested specific bitter hop components...

Breeding food barley : from agronomic assessment to marker assisted selection

Creator:: Rey, Juan Ignacio
Abstract:: This research was undertaken to provide barley growers, processors, and consumers with quality food barley. Because all currently available varieties of food barley are of spring growth habit, the first phase of the research involved agronomic assessment of these varieties under Oregon conditions. Because winter barley usually yields more than...

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...

Advancing Naked Barley: Malting Protocol Manipulation and Embryo Retention Insights

Creator:: Vallejos, Cristiana L.
Abstract:: Naked (hull-less) barley has historically been grown for food, but interest in, and breeding efforts for, its use in malting and brewing have increased due to the potential benefits: reduced off-flavors, reduced spent grain, and higher malt extract. These benefits are offset by limiting factors such as high b-glucan and...

Investigating Hop Enzymes

Creator:: Kirkpatrick, Kaylyn R.
Abstract:: According to conventional wisdom, hops are treated in the brewery as biologically inactive ingredients, added to wort or beer primarily as a flavoring agent. In the past, hops were used in relatively small quantities, with the majority of hop additions made to boiling wort. Converse to traditional hopping practices, modern...

Human bitterness detection thresholds of hop acids in beer and honey

Creator:: Kolpin, Kathryn M.
Abstract:: Alpha acids are found in the lupulin glands of hops cones. These acids have no bitterness of their own, but can be isomerized and subsequently hydrogenated to form bitter iso-α-acids and tetrahydroiso-α-acids respectively. Current literature values for the detection thresholds of iso-α-acid and tetrahydroiso-α-acid in lager beer have been reported...
