Antifungal Properties of Spotted Wing Drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) Larvae

Creator:: Bernert, Ann
Abstract:: Spotted wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii, is a recently introduced, invasive pest in Oregon. It oviposits in near-mature and mature fruit, and thus is an important concern for the small fruit industry. A crop consultant observed that mature raspberry fruit with D. suzukii larvae do not show symptoms of molds as...

Low Cloud Point Biodiesel

Creator:: Johnson, Shanti Christopher
Abstract:: The synergetic interplay between the removal of saturated methyl esters and the addition of deoxygenated fatty acids on depressing the cloud point temperature of biodiesel was investigated in this study. Canola biodiesel was produced in batch as a standard with a cloud point of 1.37 +/- 6.3°C. Saturated methyl esters...

Native wildlife species (Pseudacris regilla) utilizing invasive-dominated habitat in a highly disturbed ecosystem

Creator:: Epperly, Haley K.
Abstract:: The Pacific Treefrog (Pseudacris regilla) is commonly encountered throughout the Pacific Northwest and can be an indicator for ecosystem health. At each life stage P. regilla utilizes a different habitat and therefore it is important to understand habitat use at all life stages to properly manage the ecosystem, however, few...

A Needs Assessment of Social Emotional Learning Integration in Pre-College STEM Education at OSU

Creator:: Rodriguez Cardoso, Metzin A.
Abstract:: STEM education is delivered to K12 audiences by Pre-college Programs across the nation, many of which serve underrepresented and underserved students as part of their core missions. While there is robust attention to STEM curriculum development and college connection events in such programs, few have social-cultural aspects of learning as...

Ovarian protein hormones as biomarkers of fertility in dairy cows – Is it an acceptable model to predict infertility in dairy breeds?

Creator:: Lopez, Ruben
Abstract:: Female dairy cattle are particularly prone to infertility/subfertility with pregnancy rates ranging as low as 27% to a high 40%. On average it takes more than one breeding/insemination event for dairy cattle to become pregnant. This results in a loss of the number of calves a female would have per...

Enhancing Protocols to Improve Consistency Across Nanotoxicology Studies

Creator:: Luker, Sabrina R.
Abstract:: In current nanotoxicology research, there is a lack of standardization in reporting of zebrafish exposure media and sonication practices. This lack of standardization in use and reporting methods has made reproducing nanoparticle (NP) toxicity results between labs a common issue. It is important to have a standardized way of reporting...

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...

Effects of Selenium Supplementation During Different Trimesters of Pregnancy on Total and Vibrio coralliilyticus Specific IgM Antibody Concentrations in Beef Cows at Parturition

Creator:: Zurita Cruz, Cindy
Abstract:: Background: The immune response to microbial infections is compromised in beef cattle at parturition. Innate and adaptive immunoglobulin M (IgM) serve as initial antibodies during microbial infection before the generation of adaptive immunoglobulin G (IgG). Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient required by all mammals, which can improve immune responses...

Establishing Caenorhabditis elegans as a model for Mycobacterium avium subspecieshominissuis infection and intestinal colonization

Creator:: Ziaie, Navid
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis (MAH) causes potentially lethal opportunistic infections in immunocompromised individuals. Lack of a good animal model system currently hinders in vivo study of MAH virulence. Here we applied the tractable organism Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans), as a surrogate host to study the virulence of MAH. Worms were...
