Genomic mapping of efflux pumps in Listeria monocytogenes and their contribution to cadmium and fluoroquinolone tolerance

Creator:: Domen, Andrea
Abstract:: Listeria monocytogenes is the third most deadly foodborne pathogen in the United States. The young and elderly, as well as pregnant and immunocompromised people are the population most susceptible to serious illness and death from listeriosis infections. Unlike most foodborne pathogens, L. monocytogenes does not live a solely enteric lifestyle....

Cephalic phase insulin release : the role of oral glucose detection and its measurement in humans

Creator:: Pullicin, Alexa J.
Abstract:: Sensory stimulation from food-related cues elicits a number of rapid physiologic responses that prepare the gastrointestinal tract for efficient nutrient utilization and help minimize perturbations to metabolic homeostasis. Cephalic phase insulin release (CPIR) is one such response that specifically promotes glucose homeostasis by limiting the rise in blood sugar after...

The Biotransformation of Hop Aroma: An Exploration into Yeasts' Ability to Release Polyfunctional Thiols in Beer

Creator:: Molitor, Richard W.
Abstract:: The biotransformation of hop aroma via yeast is a prominent topic in the brewing industry with considerable interest placed on how yeast can enhance volatile thiol production during wort fermentation. Three potent thiols are known contributors to tropical qualities in wine and beer aroma, specifically 3-mercaptohexan-1-ol (3MH), 3-mercaptohexyl acetate (3MHA),...

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...

Efficacy of Sanitizers at Controlling Listeria spp. and Listeria monocytogenes When Challenged with Variables Commonly Encountered in Food Processing Environments

Creator:: Boucher, Cara
Abstract:: Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) is a pathogenic bacterium associated with the foodborne disease listeriosis in humans. Listeriosis affects thousands of people in the U.S. yearly, with neonates, elderly, pregnant women, and immunocompromised persons disproportionately affected. Lm has a high mortality rate in these populations (20 - 30%) with symptoms including septicemia,...

Prevalence and Characterization of Listeria spp. Recovered from Pacific Northwest Produce Handling and Processing Facilities

Creator:: Jorgensen, John
Abstract:: Foodborne illness in the United States continues to be a complex and recurring issue despite our increased understanding of the pathogenic microorganisms responsible. Foodborne illness outbreaks and product recalls linked to pathogenic bacteria have been more frequent in the produce industry (e.g. fruits and vegetables) in the last ten years....

Metabolic Effects in C57B/6J Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet Supplemented With Walnuts, Raspberries and Other Whole Foods

Creator:: Miranda-Garcia, Omar
Abstract:: Health benefits obtained from consumption of fruits and vegetables have the potential to improve the lifestyle of individuals. The walnut is a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-rich whole food that is readily available in the U.S and has been shown to potentially reduce risk of Metabolic Syndrome. Furthermore, consumption of polyphenol...

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%...

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...

Development of antioxidant dietary fibers from wine grape pomace and their applications as functional food ingredients

Creator:: Tseng, Angela Y.
Abstract:: Wine grape pomace (WGP), the byproduct from winemaking, is a good source of polyphenols and dietary fibers, and may be utilized as antioxidant dietary fibers (ADF) for food applications. The objectives of this thesis research were to first determine the phenolic compounds, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities in red WGP under...
