Insights into Cytostatic and Cytotoxic Properties of the Natural Product Mensacarcin

Creator:: Kaweesa, Elizabeth Namagoba
Abstract:: Mensacarcin is a stereogenic complex polyketide with potent anti-tumor activity produced by a soil-dwelling Streptomyces bottropensis. The US National Cancer Institute (NCI) 60 human tumor cell line anticancer drug screen (NCI-60) reveals mensacarcin’s cytostatic properties in almost all tested cell lines and distinct cytotoxic properties specifically in eight melanoma cell...

Sensory, compositional and texture profile analysis of high-pressure treated fresh renneted cheese - Queso Fresco style

Creator:: Sandra
Abstract:: A sensory method was developed to determine cheese texture by hand evaluation. Cheese sensory evaluation was conducted by panelists (n=8) on four commercial samples in duplicates. Standards, descriptors, methods of each attribute evaluation, sample size, and ballot were developed based on panelists' consensus. Fifteen total attributes, divided into five groups,...

Evaluating the Effects of Alleyway Management on the Performance of Dry-Farmed Pinot noir Grown in Different Soils

Creator:: Lange, Mathew
Abstract:: Vineyards in Oregon’s Willamette Valley are predominately planted to perennial grass cover in the alleyways of vineyards. This grass cover is grown to increase worker and equipment traction, as well as reduce erosion and manage vine vegetative vigor. However, with increasing frequencies of drought and warming temperatures, the use of...

Evaluation of bioluminescence as a measure of bacterial cell density in porous media

Creator:: Uesugi, Sandra L.
Abstract:: Salicylate-induced, lux gene dependent bioluminescence was measured using a cooled charge-coupled device (CCD) camera to evaluate its potential as a quantitative measurement of cell density of Pseudomonas fluorescens HK44 in porous media. The CCD camera was able to detect bioluminescence from cell densities between 1x10⁶ and 1x10⁸ cells/ml in both...

Measurement of the rates of reductive dechlorination of chlorinated phenols

Creator:: Nicholson, David K.
Abstract:: Knowledge of a compound's degradation pathway is crucial to the assessment of risk at contaminated sites. Pentachlorophenol and its metabolic products can serve as model compounds to study the fate and transport of halogenated aromatic compounds in the environment. Acclimation of anaerobic sewage sludge to pentachlorophenol produced a microbial consortium...

A method of PCB metabolite determination in anaerobic freshwater sediments using a upflow anaerobic biofiltration process (ANBIOF)

Creator:: Low, Edmond J.
Abstract:: The biodegradation of five polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) by Hudson River and Silver Lake sediments was studied using gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC/ECD) and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analyses. Methanogenic sediments from the Hudson River and Silver Lake were used to inoculate four anaerobic filter reactors. The...

Bioprospecting the Chemical Diversity of Plant-associated Fungi

Creator:: González-Montiel, Gisela Abigail
Abstract:: Fungi have long been used for discovery of new chemical scaffolds. In the clinical setting, the fungal natural products penicillin, statins, and cyclosporine have revolutionized medicine to treat diseases and infections. In the environment, fungal natural products have been used as herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides to protect crops, livestock, and...

Regional patterns of alkalinity in Oregon streams: an overview of ecological regionalization

Creator:: Henderson, Sandra
Abstract:: While many geographers believe that the regional concept is central to geographic study, no definitive regional scheme exists. The criteria considered in each regional study will relate to a stated objective or study. Ecological regionalization is a major contribution by geographers to environmental studies. By examining spatial patterns of factors...

Relationships among weight status, dairy food consumption, food and physical activity behavior, and nutritional status parameters of preschoolers in Tillamook County, Oregon

Creator:: Frank, Sandra K.
Abstract:: The purpose of this cross-sectional population study was to provide an assessment of weight status of a county's preschool population utilizing the new growth charts and expressed as Body Mass Index, or BMI, -for- age percentile. This study was conducted in conjunction with an annual health screen for incoming kindergartners...

Basin level ecological regions of the upper Grande Ronde River

Creator:: Thiele, Sandra Anne
Abstract:: Ecological regionalization is a form of spatial classification, where boundaries are drawn around areas relatively homogeneous in landscape characteristics. In the delineation of ecological regions, or ecoregions, the process includes the analysis of ecosystem structure and function. Ecoregions have been developed at national and state scales for research and resource...
