Effects of selenium supplementation during different trimesters of pregnancy on non-specific humoral immunity of pregnant beef cows and persistence of antibodies in their newborn calves

Creator:: Thompson-Hernandez, Ian
Abstract:: Immunosuppression during the periparturient period leads to increased susceptibility to infectious diseases in beef cows. Newborn calves rely on passive transfer of antibodies from their mothers at birth for protection against diseases in the first two months of age. It is unknown if supranutritional Se supplementation of cows during pregnancy...

Risk of food insecurity and readiness to change obesity-preventing behaviors in rural families

Creator:: Booth, Carolyn Jean
Abstract:: Purpose: This study examines the relationship between food insecurity (FI) risk and families’ readiness to change obesity-preventing behaviors within rural home-environments. Methods: Families (n=144) were recruited through six elementary schools (K-5/6) in low-income, rural, Oregon communities. Families completed surveys including a FI risk screener and the Family Stage of Change...

Evaluation of Oxidation Reduction Potential in Metabolic Syndrome Subjects Compared with Matched Normal Subjects

Creator:: Cobb, Tora Jean
Abstract:: This study was conducted to assess whether healthy adults compared with those with Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) have different mean oxidative-reductive potentials. Static oxidation-reduction potentials and capacity oxidation reduction potentials (sORP and cORP, respectively) were measured in plasma samples. The RedoxSYS® measures sORP in millivolts (mV), which is proportional to the...

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...

Everything in Moderation : A Study of the Effects of Alcohol Consumption on Health from Local and International Perspectives

Creator:: Wardzala, Casia Lynn
Abstract:: The consumption of alcohol has been shown to have effects on health that are both harmful and therapeutic, depending on the amount that is consumed. Alcohol’s effects can be damaging to the body in excess but, in moderation, can act as a protectant against certain conditions. The two studies discussed...

Multi-Grand, Multi-Canonical, Flat Histogram, Monte Carlo Simulations for the Square Well Fluid

Creator:: Trotter, Cade W.
Abstract:: Currently multi-canonical, and grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations exist, but do not always give all of the necessary information of the system. When using a 1-D (only changing in one variable) broad histogram Monte Carlo method a user would need to run a range of simulations in order to get...

Beating Modes in Protostellar Disks

Creator:: Varga, Attila V.
Abstract:: Computational simulations of disks are becoming an important tool to predict the the evolution of protostars and disks to better understand the formation of planets. Past research has shown that the evolution of disks and their protostar can be altered through the interaction between gravity and hydrodynamic instabilities. We perform...

Temperature Dependence of Cu₃₋xSb₁₋[subscript y]M[subscript y]S₄ (M=Sn,Ge) Resistivity and Thermopower

Creator:: Mutch, Joshua
Abstract:: An experimental apparatus is modified to allow measurements of the Seebeck coefficient and resistivity to be taken simultaneously. This apparatus is designed for bulk and thin film samples between temperatures of 10 K and 300 K. The apparatus is constructed such that these simultaneous measurements do not interfere with each...

Achievement Unlocked : Increasing Social Justice Awareness in Middle School Students Through Board Games

Creator:: Nguyen-Van, Tiffany T.
Abstract:: “An undeniably vast portion of American history is attributed to people of color. But these stories of discoveries and researches, resilience and liberation all seemed like missing pieces to the puzzle that is America.” (Vo-Nguyen). This speaks to the experience of how the stories, lives, and contributions of their communities...

Surface patterning of biofilm : A toolbox study to detect microbial metabolites

Creator:: Nguyen, Kristine
Abstract:: Surface patterning of bacterial biofilm provides an opportunity to understand the microbial metabolic exchange between bacterial species. By using various techniques, one can put different bacterial species in close proximity and study their interaction by using various assay kits and analytical techniques. In this study, surface patterning of Pseudomonas aeruginosa...
