Aging and oxidative damage to mitochondrial membrane proteins

Creator:: Tong, Tony T.
Abstract:: Mitochondria provide energy for biological cells to function, but this process is also a source of oxygen radicals that are capable of damaging nearby proteins. Mitochondrial protein damage can eventually lead to cell death, especially in the case of heart cells, where mitochondria are present in the highest concentrations. As...

Effects of caustic addition on black liquor rheology and thermal characteristics

Creator:: Euhus, Daniel D.
Abstract:: An important by-product of the kraft pulping process, black liquor is currently used in most pulp mills to produce steam in a recovery boiler. Two important black liquor characteristics are viscosity and burning (firing) characteristics, which determine the operating efficiency of the recovery boiler. Kraft black liquor is a complicated...

Determination of flavin-containing monooxygenase mRNA levels in mouse lung and liver

Creator:: Lo, Pachida C.
Abstract:: We are developing a flavin-containing (Fmo) knock-out mouse for Fmo2 that will be utilized to elucidate the role of active human FMO isoform 2 (FMO2.1) in xenobiotic metabolism and toxicity. Since FMO2 is primarily expressed in lung this will provide information on how 27% of African-Americans and 5% of Hispanics...

Teaching business to the poor : the effectiveness of business development services within microenterprise development

Creator:: Wilson, Taylor Anne
Abstract:: Many economic development methods over the years have tried to solve the problem of poverty with varied success. Microenterprise development is a method that works with the poor to create small self-run businesses to increase their income, and therefore bring more freedom from disease illiteracy and discrimination. Within microenterprise development...

Step by step through the scholarly conversation : a collaborative library/writing faculty project to embed information literacy and promote critical thinking in first year composition at Oregon State University

Creator:: Deitering, Anne-Marie and Jameson, Sara
Abstract:: At Oregon State University (OSU), writing instructors and librarians collaboratively teach research writing and information literacy in first year composition courses (FYC). A four-week unit focuses on the connections between critical thinking, writing and learning, and information literacy. This paper describes the process of developing, implementing, and refining this collaborative...

Prey swimming behavior and culture techniques for copper, Sebastes caurinus, and quillback rockfish, S. malinger

Creator:: Gilbert, Thom H.
Abstract:: Rotifers and brine shrimp (Artemia) are important prey items for rearing marine fish larvae. Their availability in the water column may be reduced when they are transferred to larval rearing tanks at lower temperature. In this study, Brachionus rotundiformis (SS-type) and Brachionus plicatilis (L-type) were semi-continuously cultured and fed on...

Exploring phylogeny of Rhodococcus fascians isolates using 16S ribosomal DNA sequence analysis

Creator:: Sandberg, Eva Song
Abstract:: Rhodococcus fascians is a Gram-positive, pleiomorphic actinomycete that causes leafy gall formation in a wide range of plant hosts. This particular phytopathogen has been a focus of research at the Oregon State University Plant Clinic, a diagnostic laboratory. Phylogeny of R. fascians isolates obtained from Plant Clinic submissions was determined...

A genomic and proteomic characterization of the first cultured oligotrophic marine Gammaproteobacterium from the SAR92 clade

Creator:: Mellbye, Brett L.
Abstract:: High-throughput culturing (HTC) consisting of extinction culturing in autoclaved seawater has led to the isolation and characterization of many novel strains of oligotrophic marine bacteria. Strain HTCC 2207 was isolated from the Oregon coast by the HTC method. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that this strain...
