The Association Between Extreme Climate and Diarrheal Illness in North America

Creator:: Lyon-Colbert, Amber
Abstract:: The etiology and transmission of bacterial diarrheal pathogens is complex, making evaluating the association between extreme climate and diarrheal illnesses in North America challenging. Changes in climate may impact the survival, reproduction, and distribution of pathogens that cause diarrheal illness. Evidence supports the hypothesis that reproduction, survival, and transmission ability...

The influence of increased base saturation and the chloride ion on Fragaria ananassa, Bailey

Creator:: Lyons, Calvin G.
Abstract:: Research was carried out to determine the influence of increasing the percentage base saturation of the soil on the yield of the commercial strawberry. It was found that the effect of increasing the bases in the soils was directly related to the original percentage base saturation. When this original value...

Applying higher order asymptotics to mixed linear models

Creator:: Lyons, Benjamin
Abstract:: Mixed linear models are a time honored method of analyzing correlated data. However, there is still no method of calculating exact confidence intervals or p-values for an arbitrary parameter in any mixed linear model. Instead, researchers must use either specialized approximate and exact tests that have been developed for particular...

Coulometric determination of dissolved oxygen

Creator:: Healy, Michael Lyon
Abstract:: Many different aspects of the determination of dissolved oxygen by controlled potential coulometry were investigated to find a means of measuring the oxygen content of natural waters. Rapid sampling techniques, simplicity of operation, and rugged structural features were stressed. Cells were designed to operate by either internal electrolysis or external...

Bioenergetics-based predator-prey relationships between piscivorous birds and juvenile salmonids in the Columbia River estuary

Creator:: Lyons, Donald E.
Abstract:: This dissertation focuses on the predator-prey relationship between two species of avian predators, Caspian terns (Hydroprogne caspia) and double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus), and one of their important prey types, juvenile salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.), in the Columbia River estuary of Oregon and Washington states during the period 1998 – 2007. I...

The influence of aryl hydrocarbon receptor activation on T cell fate

Creator:: Funatake, Castle J.
Abstract:: 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and related compounds are well-recognized for their immunosuppressive activity, which is mediated through an intracellular receptor and transcription factor, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Laboratory animals exposed to TCDD are less resistant to infection and have severely impaired humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. This dissertation addressed the hypothesis that...

The role of costimulation and adjuvants in the development of T cell effector and memory responses

Creator:: Maxwell, Joseph R.
Abstract:: T cells are one of the key cells in the immune system. Although they are not the first line of defense against a pathogen, their functions can greatly enhance the phagocytosis and destruction of pathogens as well as the development of antibody responses. Furthermore, even when responding T cells have...

The influence of selenium on selenoprotein W

Creator:: Yeh, Jan-ying
Abstract:: The objective of our study was to investigate the effect of selenium on selenoprotein W. Western blot analysis indicated that selenoprotein W is present in muscle, brain, testis and spleen of rat tissues. Tissue distribution of selenoprotein W was not altered in rats fed various selenium levels. Among muscle, brain,...
