Antibiotic Resistance in Septic Sludge and Receiving Environments of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Creator:: Schutzius, Genevieve Conyers
Abstract:: Approximately ninety percent of urban Vietnamese households are connected to septic tanks, from which up to three-quarters of the sludge is reported to be dumped into waterways in residential areas. Vietnam has a considerable prevalence of antibiotic misuse and resultant antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) in the human microbiome. Due to the...

Prevalence of Volatile Phenols in Kombucha and Evaluation of Factors that Influence their Formation

Creator:: Navarro, Roxana
Abstract:: Kombucha is a traditional fermented beverage that has become increasingly popular in the United States due to its perceived health benefits and unique flavor profiles. The drivers of kombucha flavor have not been fully characterized, at least in part because it is produced using a complex microbial community, leading to...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Prevalence and Fate of Antibiotic-resistant E. coli in Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants across Oregon

Creator:: Khorshidi Zadeh, Marjan
Abstract:: Wastewater treatment plants are considered one of the main sources and reservoirs of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This study investigated the prevalence of 8 different phenotypes of AMR, multi-drug resistant (MDR), and extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) producing E. coli in 17 wastewater treatment plants across Oregon in winter and summer of 2019...

Application of Antimicrobial Substance in Depuration for Decreasing Vibrio Parahaemolyticus Contamination in the Pacific Oysters (Crassostrea gigas)

Creator:: Shen, Xiaoye
Abstract:: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the leading cause of foodborne illnesses associated with seafood consumption. Consuming raw or undercooked seafood contaminated with V. parahaemolyticus can result in development of acute gastroenteritis with symptoms of nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping and watery diarrhea within 24 hours of infection. Illness is usually self-limited and lasts...

Antibiotic Resistance in Treated Wastewater Effluent and Biosolids and Fate after Agricultural Reuse

Creator:: Mays, Catherine M.
Abstract:: Conventional wastewater treatment facilities using activated sludge, secondary clarifiers, and chlorine disinfection comprise a large portion of urban wastewater treatment practices in the United States. While highly adept at removing chemical, physical, and numerous biological contaminants, these treatment methods are ineffective at removing contaminants of emerging concern, such as antibiotics...

Effects of 12 months of voluntary alcohol self-administration on intracortical bone remodeling in a rhesus macaque model

Creator:: Gaddini, Gino W.
Abstract:: Background: Alcohol is a nonessential nutrient widely consumed throughout the world. Chronic alcohol abuse is associated with numerous adverse skeletal effects. However, prior to this study, the effects of alcohol abuse on intracortical bone remodeling in an animal model had not been investigated. Reduced intracortical bone remodeling could impair repair...

Genetic Diversity and Antimicrobial Resistance of Listeria monocytogenes within Produce Handling and Processing Environments

Creator:: Bland, Rebecca N.
Abstract:: Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen frequently associated with food processing environments. Its presence is particularly concerning in facilities handling minimally processed and ready-to-eat foods. Recent outbreaks associated with fresh produce, such as packaged salads and mushrooms, highlight the need to better understand and control these pathogens in environments that...

Enrichment Isolation of Brettanomyces Yeasts to Probe the Relationship Between Vineyard and Winery Populations

Creator:: Pigao, Kevin E.
Abstract:: The budding yeast Brettanomyces bruxellensis has the potential to spoil fermented beverages and cause financial losses, but also contribute positively to certain products such as Lambic beer. It is most notorious for causing “Brett” spoilage of wine, which is characterized by undesirable aromas such as “bandaid” and “barnyard”, therefore most...
