Antioxidant Effects of Blackberry Pomace on the Health of Transition Dairy Cows

Creator:: Estenson, Kaelyn A.
Abstract:: Blackberry pomace (BBP), a byproduct from juice processing, is often disposed of in landfills. We propose BBP as an antioxidant-rich feed supplement for transition dairy cows. To explore the effects of BBP on antioxidant status, 24 multiparous dairy cows (5 Holstein and 19 Jersey) were assigned randomly to one of...

Independent Association of Vitamin D with Prevalent and Incident Outcomes of Heart Attack and Stroke in Elderly Men: A Prospective Cohort Study

Creator:: Messenger, Wyatt
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: The association of vitamin D with heart attack and stroke remains unclear. METHOD: Using data from the Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Study (MrOS), we collected dietary vitamin D data from 5,995 participants and serum (25)OH vitamin D from 1,606 participants. The association of vitamin D with prevalent heart attack...

A Comparative Analysis of Automated and Time-Integrated Sediment Samplers

Creator:: Babb, Arden I.
Abstract:: This study was conducted to determine if a time-integrated Phillips sampler was able to estimate sediment yield when compared to a reference produced by an automated sampler. Time-integrated samplers are easier to use, more cost effective, and can withstand storm events better than automated samplers, but are not designed to...

Studying the ancient parasitic cnidarian, Sphaerospora elegans, leads to better understanding of oligochaete diversity and myxozoan discovery

Creator:: Lehrburger, David J.
Abstract:: Myxozoans are microscopic parasites, related to corals and jellyfish. Most Myxozoa probably have two-host lifecycles that require a vertebrate (typically fish) and invertebrate (annelid or bryozoan). However no life cycle is known from the Sphaerospora lineage. I hypothesized that the life cycle of Sphaerospora elegans, a myxozoan parasite of three-spined...

Engineering a Profiling System for a Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler

Creator:: Shannon, Robert J.
Abstract:: ROSS (Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler) is an autonomous boat, equipped with oceanographic sensors, used for studying the ocean’s surface. One of its advantages over traditional research vessels is its ability to sample near glaciers, an area too dangerous for manned ships. In order to properly ascertain deep ocean heat’s effect...
