Multidisciplinary Approach to Evaluate the Effect of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) on Soil Microbiota and Quality of Strawberries

Creator:: Nam, Jun Haeng
Abstract:: Oregon strawberries are known for their high quality, intense flavor, sweetness, and rich red color. With optimal weather conditions, including rainy and mild seasons, Oregon has one of the best strawberry farming environments. Amongst the factors for a suitable strawberry farming environment, soil significantly influences strawberry growth and quality. The...

Analytical approach to the quantitative analysis of silicon in plants : its application to plant silica extraction

Creator:: Boone, Carmen E.
Abstract:: The literature available on the silica content of herbaceous biomass, and its relative mobility in leaching/extraction systems, includes studies that have employed several different methods for silica quantification. This makes comparison of the data difficult. The objective of this thesis research was to determine the quantitative relationships between the measured...

Quantification of fructose equivalents in straw extracts

Creator:: Kim, Eugene
Abstract:: Cereal and commercial grass-seed straws are abundant plant biomass materials that are currently being considered for application in industrial processes aimed at the production of biofuels, biomaterials, and biochemicals. The carbohydrate fraction of these straws is of particular interest in this context due to its chemical functionality and relative ease...

Analysis of proanthocyanidin A2 and its presence in various commercial products

Creator:: Koerner, Jayma L.
Abstract:: Proanthocyanidins (PACs) containing A-type linkages, like those found in cranberry, have been implicated as beneficial phenolic compounds in human health, but much research is still required to better understand their activity fully. One major impediment to progress has been the existence of effective analytical methods for A-type PAC quantification. This...

Effects of refrigeration storage and processing technologies on the bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacities of blackberries ('Marion' and 'Evergreen')

Creator:: Wu, Ruyi
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to investigate the effects of refrigeration storage and processing technologies on the quality and nutraceutical benefit of blackberries. 'Marion' and 'Evergreen', the two major blackberry varieties in Oregon, were evaluated in this study. For refrigeration storage, fresh fruit were packed in clam-shell containers right...

Influence of cultivar and maturity on blackberry polyphenolics and investigation of sediment formation in blackberry juice

Creator:: Siriwoharn, Thanyaporn
Abstract:: The influence of cultivar and maturity on polyphenolic composition and antioxidant activity was investigated by UV-Visible spectrophotometry and analytical high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in commercially important blackberry cultivars and selections. The anthocyanin pigments changed tremendously with ripening. Total anthocyanins increased from 74.7-317 mg/100g fw from underripe to over ripe...

Investigation of Bioactive Compounds in Different Types of Fruit Pomace and Their Applications as Bulk Materials for Creating Biocomposite

Creator:: Gouw, Virginia P.
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the physicochemical properties and bioactive compounds from four different types of fruit pomace, including apple, blueberry, raspberry, and cranberry, and further to investigate the feasibility of creating apple pomace based biocomposite boards using thermal compression molding and to optimize the biocomposite formulations...

Development of a method to measure protein in red wines : a survey of protein, mannan and tannin in Pinot noir wines

Creator:: Smith, Mark R.
Abstract:: A number of methods to isolate and quantify protein in Pinot noir wines were evaluated. The combination of precipitation by acetone containing 10% w/v trichloroacetic acid followed by quantification with the Bradford assay, reported in yeast invertase equivalents yielded the most accurate results when compared to micro-Kjeldahl analysis. The technique...

Shelf life and microbial content of fluid milk from nine processing plants in Oregon

Creator:: Wustenberg, Liam Robert
Abstract:: High-temperature-short-time pasteurized fluid milk commonly has a shelf life around 16-19 days. The aim of this study was to determine the shelf life of fluid milk in Oregon and characterize the bacterial growth over 23 days. Samples of pasteurized 2% milk were collected at six time points from all nine...
