Survival of Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp., and Staphylococcus aureus in raw yellowfin tuna during refrigerated and frozen storage

Creator:: Mou, Jing
Abstract:: The consumption of seafood in the United States has increased rapidly in recent years due to high quality protein and health benefits of seafood. Seafood can be a carrier for bacteria normally distributed in the marine environment and, in some cases, can be contaminated by human pathogens. Therefore, there is...

Metabolic effects of consumption of quercetin, ellagic acid, cherry, and apple phytochemical extracts in high-fat fed mice

Creator:: Smith, Sarah M.
Abstract:: Metabolic improvements and changes in gene expression were measured in mice fed polyphenol-rich extracts derived from apples and sweet cherries, and the common phytochemicals, quercetin and ellagic acid. Polyphenol-rich extracts were produced by solid phase extraction and column chromatography. Extracts and purified compounds were mixed into a high-fat (HF, 60%...

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...

Species- and Temporal-Specific Coral Microbiome Fluctuations in Response to a Natural Bleaching Event

Creator:: Ewton, Erica M.
Abstract:: Corals provide a diversity of ecosystem services, are among the most biologically diverse ecosystems on Earth, and directly support ~500 million people globally; however, corals are increasingly experiencing significant threats and are undergoing severe bleaching events as the result of the warming climate. Using a two-year data set surrounding a...

Cleaning and Sanitizing Surfaces on Produce Farms: Optimizing What, How, and When

Creator:: Ohman, Erik
Abstract:: Production of fresh produce takes place outdoors, and therefore, is exposed to many routes of contamination (e.g., soil, contaminated water, manure, etc.) by human pathogens. Although precautions are taken to reduce this risk, pathogens can be regularly introduced to produce handling facilities. To manage the risk of cross-contamination from potentially...

Immunomodulatory Actions of Bovine Whey Protein Isolates, Glycomacropeptide, and Their Digests: Insights from Macrophage and Human Studies

Creator:: Olsen, Wyatt
Abstract:: Whey protein isolate (WPI) and glycomacropeptide (GMP) have shown potential immunomodulatory properties. In this study, we investigated their effects on pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion using both in vitro and in vivo models. In LPS-stimulated THP-1-derived macrophages, digested WPI and GMP reduced cytokine expression, while whole GMP increased secretion. The in human...

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...

Development of High-Throughput Screening Methods to Determine Efficacy of “Clean-Label” Antifungals for Application on Cheese

Creator:: Jensen, Kristen
Abstract:: Cheese has been produced since ancient times and continues to be an important nutrient-dense staple in many diets around the world. Cheese quality is of high importance to consumers, and it is important for cheese producers to establish process controls to prevent and control cheese spoilage. Fungal spoilage is of...

Investigating the Impact of Temperature and Air Quality on Human Health in At-Risk Populations

Creator:: Evoy, Richard E.
Abstract:: Climate change is causing people around the world to experience extreme temperature and air pollution events such as wildfires more frequently, and for longer periods of time. Extreme heat events have been widely associated with an increased risk of emergency room visits, occupational heat-related injuries and illnesses, and mortality overall...

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...
