Development of mucosal vaccines for avian influenza A virus composed of recombinant Lactococcus lactis and Streptococcus gordonii

Creator:: Reese, Kaleb A.
Abstract:: Novel mucosal vaccines (LL-M2e, LL-HAe, SG-HAe) were constructed from live, non-pathogenic Lactococcus lactis or Streptococcus gordonii that express conserved regions of HA or M2 antigens from avian influenza virus (AIV) A. All three vaccines evoked antigen-specific serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses in vaccinated chickens. The addition of the adjuvant cholera...

Physicians and Treating Addiction in Patients

Creator:: Cao, Annie L.
Abstract:: More than twenty million people in the United States are estimated to have substance use disorders, and it is expected that the number will increase in the future. Physicians, especially general practitioners, play important roles in the treatment of substance use and other addiction disorders because they focus on overall...

Differential agar media for the identification of the Salmonella and Arizona groups of Enterobacteriaceae

Creator:: Stroup, John Raymond
Abstract:: Twelve differential agars have been studied in the development of media to presumptively identify the Salmonella Subgenera I-IV. Medium No. 7B/A (or Medium No. 7-H₂S Strip) combined the malonate, dulcitol, lysine decarboxylase and hydrogen sulfide reactions in one tube. It was designed to be used at the TSI stage of...

Bacterial 16S ribosomal DNA analysis of pyrrolizidine alkaloid detoxifying enrichments from the ovine rumen

Creator:: Gray, Diane R.
Abstract:: Bacterial cultures enriched from sheep rumen fluid have demonstrated the ability to detoxify pyrrolizidine alkaloids (seneciphylline and jacobine) in tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea). The microbes are difficult to isolate using classical anaerobic techniques, therefore, microbes from two different enrichment cultures demonstrating similar degradation activity were identified using their 16S ribosomal...

A study of Myxobolus cerebralis in the Lostine River, Oregon : epizootiology, distribution and implications for resident and anadromous salmonids

Creator:: Sandell, Todd A.
Abstract:: Myxobolus cerebralis, a myxozoan parasite that infects almost all species of wild and cultured salmonids, was first identified in northeastern Oregon in the Lostine River in 1986. Fish that are heavily infected with M. cerebralis develop whirling disease, which was determined to be the cause of catastrophic declines in rainbow...

Structural analysis of thermally inactivated nisin

Creator:: Musafija-Jeknic, Tamara
Abstract:: Nisin, an antimicrobial peptide used in food preservation was evaluated for thermal stability. Nisin retained antimicrobial activity after having been heated at 121°C for seven hours. Anhydrous nisin and concentrated nisin solutions (5-10 mg/ml) were still active after having been heated up to 190°C or 230°C. When exposed to high...

Molecular characterization of bacterial populations implicated inthe anaerobic metabolism of toxic plant alkaloids from two different experimental and environmental sources

Creator:: Rattray, Rogan MacKay
Abstract:: There have been many studies that describe the protective degradation or metabolism of potentially harmful plant toxins, such as, mimosine from Leucaena leuconcephala, pyrrolizidine alkaloids from tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea), oxalate and some mycotoxins by rumen microbes. There are many cases of plant-related toxicoses suffered by ruminant animals where there...

Chitinase production of Arthrobacter sp. BN2

Creator:: Miranda-Chavez, Alcibiades Heli
Abstract:: A chitinase producing bacterium was isolated from soil and identified as a species of Arthrobacter. The organism grew well at temperatures between 27 and 33.5 C, and the chitinase production was highest at 25.5 C. As the temperature increased above the optimum point, the level of enzyme production rapidly decreased,...

A comparative study of Clostridium botulinum strains using differential egg yolk media

Creator:: Stiebrs, Anita
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to compare and test the efficiency of the leading kinds of media being used for the isolation and identification of Clostridium botulinum type E strains, and to develop a more reliable method and media for the differentiation of this organism based on the "pearly...
