Effect of mercury on β-galactosidase activity : possible relationship to lactose intolerance

Creator:: LaChance, Michele Collette
Abstract:: The ability of mercury to inhibit β - galactosidase activity from cell-free extracts of Streptococcus lactis, Escherichia colt and intestinal homogenates of hogs, female rats, and humans was studied. Mercuric acetate was added in vitro to all sources of β - galactosidase except for the rats, which were placed on...

Susceptibility of select salmonids to Myxobolus cerebralis and effects of exposure on anadromous salmonids in Oregon

Creator:: Sollid, Sarah A.
Abstract:: Myxobolus cerebralis, a myxozoan parasite of salmonids, is the causative agent of whirling disease. The parasite is considered widespread throughout northeastern Oregon in the Grande Ronde and Imnaha River basins where threatened and endangered salmonid populations exist. The work presented in this thesis comprises several studies that assess the effects...

Molecular Analysis of Environmental Water Samples as a Monitoring Method for the Fish Parasite Ichthyophthirius multifiliis

Creator:: Howell, Claire K.
Abstract:: Parasites are ubiquitous members of ecological communities, capable of contributing to the decline of vulnerable populations. Therefore, monitoring parasite level is a critical component for host management. Molecular tools, such as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), can be valuable additions to monitoring protocols that assess parasitic disease risk to hosts....

Expanding Diagnostic Assays for Pseudoloma neurophilia & Description of the Progression of Infection in Adult Zebrafish Populations

Creator:: Schuster, Corbin J.
Abstract:: Pseudoloma neurophilia is the most common pathogen reported in zebrafish (Danio rerio) research facilities and is an important threat to the zebrafish model. This microsporidian parasite can cause clinical disease, but more importantly is a causative agent of non-protocol induced variation in research. Studies utilizing infected zebrafish, could potentially confound...

Controlling Important Pathogens in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Assessing Cryopreservation Survival of Bacteria and Parasites and Clinical Sensitivity of Mycobacterial qPCR Assays

Creator:: Norris, Lauren J.
Abstract:: Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are one of the most commonly used animal models in biomedical research. Zebrafish resource facilities, like the Zebrafish International Resource Center (ZIRC) in Eugene, Oregon, are the main providers and keepers of numerous zebrafish wild-type, mutant, and transgenic lines. Although ZIRC maintains live zebrafish at various life...

Immune response and protection against Streptococcus pyogenes after vaccination with Lactococcus lactis that expresses conserved region of M6 protein

Creator:: Mannam, Praveen
Abstract:: Most pathogens gain access to their host through mucosal surfaces. It is therefore desirable to develop mucosal vaccines that elicit an immune response to prevent this crucial first step in infection. Current mucosal vaccines are live attenuated strains of pathogens. More recent efforts have focused on the use of recombinant...

Functional and structural characterization of phage infection protein (Pip) in Lactococcus lactis

Creator:: Ngo, Hang
Abstract:: This thesis describes an analysis of the structure/function relationship of the phage infection protein (Pip) in Lactococcus lactis. Pip is a protein required for phage infection of L. lactis exclusively by phage c2 species. Pip, which shares no significant homology to previously studied proteins, contains 6 hydrophobic regions; one residing...

Multiple Stressors Drive Changes in Coral Microbiome Diversity and Composition Demonstrating the Role of a Bacterial Symbiont in Microbial Community Sensitivity and Resilience

Creator:: Maher, Rebecca L.
Abstract:: On coral reefs, disturbances rarely occur in isolation. Global stressors such as increasing seawater temperature often coincide with local stressors like nutrient pollution. In the face of increasing anthropogenic stress, corals can function as environmental sentinels, although little is known about how multiple stressors interact to disrupt their associated bacterial...

The Role of the Mucosal Immunoglobulin IgT and Inflammatory Cytokines in Ceratonova shasta Infections in Rainbow Trout

Creator:: Taggart-Murphy, Laura M.
Abstract:: The myxozoan parasite Ceratonova shasta threatens both juvenile and adult salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, causing intestine necrosis and hemorrhaging, along with high mortality in some fish strains. It induces an inflammatory tissue response in susceptible strains of fish; understanding the interactions between C....
