The blueberry : composition, anthocyanins, and polyphenolics

Creator:: Lee, Jungmin
Abstract:: Frozen blueberries were pilot-plant-processed into juice and concentrate by 2 treatments (heat and SO2), and a control. Qualitative, and quantitative anthocyanin and polyphenolic content were monitored after each processing step. Major losses occurred after the initial processing steps. Juice processing by-product contained a substantial amount of anthocyanins and polyphenolics (>42%...

The ecology of Mountain Quail in Oregon

Creator:: Pope, Michael D. (Michael Dickens)
Abstract:: Mountain Quail (Oreortyx pictus) populations have declined in many areas of the western Great Basin during the past century. Yet the life history of this species is little known. From 1997 to 2000, I studied radio-marked Mountain Quail in Hell's Canyon in northeastern Oregon, in the Cascade Mountains of southwestern...

Extending market potential of blueberries with controlled atmosphere storage

Creator:: Boonprasom, Pichaya
Abstract:: The goal of this research was to determine if controlled atmosphere (CA) storage could be used to extend the market period of fresh Pacific Northwest blueberries and to evaluate the effects different storage atmospheres have on fruit quality. Furthermore, this research also investigated heat and mass transfer characteristics during cooling...

An ontology-based system for representation and diagnosis of electrocardiogram (ECG) data

Creator:: Dendamrongvit, Thidarat
Abstract:: Electrocardiogram (ECG) data are stored and analyzed in different formats, devices, and computer platforms. There is a need to have an independent platform to support ECG processes among different resources for the purposes of improving the quality of health care and proliferating the results from research. Currently, ECG devices are...

A technology acquisition tool for key decision makers

Creator:: Self, Stephen
Abstract:: Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the need for a technology acquisition tool to be used in the capital purchasing process in health care organizations. Design Multi-method approach consisting of interviews of ten executives of health care organizations. A written survey was then mailed to Chief Executive...

Jointed goatgrass (Aegilops cylindrica Host) genetic diversity and hybridization with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Creator:: Gandhi, Harish Tulshiramji
Abstract:: Jointed goatgrass (Aegilops cylindrica Host; 2n=4x=28; CCDD) is an agriculturally important species both as a weed and as a genetic resource for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.; 2n=6x=42; AABBDD) improvement. In order to better understand the evolution of this species, the diversity of Ae. cylindrica was evaluated along with its progenitors,...

The role and function of fruit trees and fruit tree-based agroforestry systems in a highland watershed in northern Thailand

Creator:: Withrow-Robinson, Bradford A.
Abstract:: Field studies were conducted from 1996 to 1998 in three villages in a Highland watershed in Mae Hong Son Province, northern Thailand. The objectives of the study were to classify and define the fruit-based agroforestry cropping system and investigate management activities used by villagers. In the first part of the...

Expression and Function of Populus Homologs to TERMINAL FLOWER 1 Genes: Roles in Onset of Flowering and Shoot Phenology

Creator:: Mohamed, Rozi
Abstract:: We isolated and characterized the expression of two genes from Populus trichocarpa that are homologous to the TERMINAL FLOWER 1 (TFL1) gene from the model annual plant Arabidopsis. In Arabidopsis, overexpression of the TFL1 gene extends the vegetative growth phase, and the homozygous mutant tfl1 allele causes early flowering and...

Utilization of natural and supplemental biofuels for harvesting energy from marine sediments

Creator:: Nielsen, Mark E.
Abstract:: A benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC) is an electrochemical device that generates current from the redox gradient at the sediment-water interface. Early prototypes had anodes buried in anoxic sediments and cathodes in overlying water. The BMFCs described in this dissertation are based on a chamber design that enables the use...

High resolution spectroscopic studies of ³²S¹⁶O₃ and ³⁴S¹⁶O₃

Creator:: Barber, Jeffrey
Abstract:: The two sulfur isotopomers of sulfur trioxide, ³²S¹⁶O₃ and ³⁴S¹⁶O₃, have been studied via high resolution infrared and Coherent anti-Stokes Raman (CARS) spectroscopy. The v₁ symmetric SO stretching Q-branches observed by the latter are quite different, being especially complex for ³²S¹⁶O₃ Understanding this band structure required analysis of infrared-active hot...
