  • Use of Platelet Rich Plasma for the Treatment of Subclinical Endometritis in Beef Heifers

    Creator:
    Puttman, Elizabeth A.
    Abstract:
    Postpartum uterine inflammation (endometritis) is not uncommon in beef cattle, resulting in infertility and culling. Prolonged calving may contribute to the increased incidence of endometritis in heifers. Commonly used methods to treat endometritis in beef cattle include intrauterine antibiotics and/or hormone injections, which can result in meat residues. Platelet rich...

  • Biotic and Abiotic Factors Affecting the Presence of Beneficial Insects on Oregon Christmas Tree Farms

    Creator:
    Cain, Alyssa B.
    Abstract:
    Beneficial insects could provide valuable pest control services on Oregon Christmas tree farms, but a limited amount of data exist that quantifies the type and abundance of beneficial insects on farms. This study surveyed beneficial insects on two farms that differed in their management strategies as well as other abiotic...

  • Fungal endophytes as source to combat bacterial infections

    Creator:
    Green, Jaimie R
    Abstract:
    Endophytes, foliage inhabiting fungi, are an unexplored source of fungal biodiversity and a potential resource for the production of bioactive natural products. In this research, leaf tissues from the species Arbutus menziesii, Rhododendron macrophyllum and the genus, Ilex and Salix were collected for the isolation of endophytic fungi. Fungal extracts...

  • Chromosome visualization in a temperate anemone, Anthopleura elegantissima

    Creator:
    Shaffer, Lucy J.
    Abstract:
    Anthopleura elegantissima (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) is an emerging model organism for studying the endosymbiotic relationship between dinoflagellate (genus Symbiodinium) and the cnidarian host. To be developed as a model organism, more genetic resources, like integrated genome and linkage map, are needed. An important validation for developing genomic resources is chromosome number....

  • Metagenomics Analysis Reveal Host-Microbe Interactions in Cervical Cancer

    Creator:
    Lam, Khiem C.
    Abstract:
    Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide. Recently it has been shown that microbiota play a role in some types of cancer. Therefore, to understand whether microbes contribute in any way to the development and progress of cervical cancer, we investigated the cervical microbiome via analysis...

  • A Panel of Histone H3 Mutations to Investigate Centromere Maintenance and Gene Silencing

    Creator:
    Esposito, Madison L.
    Abstract:
    Modifications of histone tail amino acid residues are necessary for many reactions involving chromatin. These processes can produce transcriptionally active, euchromatic, or inactive, heterochromatic, segments of DNA. The formation and maintenance of facultative heterochromatin is critical for the proper growth and development of many eukaryotes. Euchromatin can be changed into...

  • Light quality manipulation for the solvent extraction of phycocyanin from Oregon freshwater cyanobacteria

    Creator:
    Gregor, Katelin
    Abstract:
    Phycocyanin, a photosynthetic pigment-protein complex produced by cyanobacteria, has critical value in the medical field at high purity. Costs associated with the extraction of this pigment are high, emphasizing the importance of optimal growth conditions. The aim of this study was to investigate potential commercial producers of phycocyanin by evaluating...

  • Inhibition of α-Amylase and α-Glucosidase by Bioflavonoids

    Creator:
    Griffith, Anneke M. (Tucker)
    Abstract:
    Various flavonoid-rich plant extracts have shown efficacy in the treatment of diabetes. Although it is often assumed that dietary flavonoids exert biological antioxidant effects, it is possible that the observed effects work in carbohydrate metabolism. In this study we evaluated the effect of catechins and catechin containing extracts on α-amylase...
