Vitellogenesis : a biomarker for estrogenic and antiestrogenic effects of organochlorines in rainbow trout

Creator:

Donohoe, Regina M.

Abstract:

Persistent organochlorines (OCs) bioaccumulate in aquatic biota and potentially impair reproduction via endocrine disruption. The present research evaluated estrogenic effects of the OCs, chlordecone (CD) and o,p'-DDT/DDE, and the antiestrogenicity of 3,4,5,3',4',5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (345-HCB) in juvenile rainbow trout, utilizing vitellogenesis as a biomarker. Vitellogenesis, estrogen regulated hepatic production of the yolk...

Stability and gel strength of meat emulsions made with prerigor, preblended beef and reduced salt levels

Creator:

Wiser, Cathy

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of preblended, prerigor beef in reduced salt meat batters. The functional properties of water-holding capacity, fat binding and gel strength were evaluated. Proximate analyses (protein, moisture and fat contents) of all cooked samples were performed, in duplicate. The sternomandibularis muscle...
