Handwashing attitudes, intentions, behaviors and barriers in the restaurant environment

Creator:: Pragle, Aimee S.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to identify the knowledge, attitudes, practices and barriers related to handwashing in the restaurant environment. The study was designed with multidimensional study tools to include: a focus group conversation with questions to food workers to develop an initial understanding of knowledge, practice and attitudes...

Dietary acculturation among Oregon Latinos : factors affecting food choice

Creator:: Vanegas, Sarah Marie
Abstract:: This study sought to examine food choice motives and influences among Oregon Latinos to gain a greater understanding of their dietary acculturation. Previous studies relying principally on quantitative methods to assess the relationship between acculturation and diet have reported inconsistent results, though a general decline in diet quality is reported...

Harvesting hunger : measuring food insecurity and hope in Oregon's Mexican agriculture and seafood workers

Creator:: Reeder, Julie A.
Abstract:: Food Insecurity exists whenever the availability of nutritionally adequate and safe foods or the ability to acquire acceptable foods in socially acceptable ways is limited or uncertain (LSRO, 1990). Factors that increase a household's risk for food insecurity include being low income and not being able to access formal and...

The relationship between income and food insecurity : the role of social support in rural and urban Oregonians

Creator:: De Marco, Molly M.
Abstract:: Millions of U.S. households experienced hunger in 2005 and millions more experienced food insecurity. Previous research indicates that low-wage work and little social support contribute to food insecurity. Research also suggests that individuals cope by finding alternate food sources and drawing on social support. Further, researchers have found that rural...

Hispanic family diabetes project : a pilot intervention study

Creator:: White, Beverly B.
Abstract:: Changes in lifestyle over the last century have resulted in a dramatic increase in the incidence of diabetes in the United States (U.S.). Mexican-Americans, the largest Hispanic/Latino subgroup in the U.S., are 1.7x’s as likely to have diabetes as non- Hispanic Whites. Culturally appropriate approaches for treating diabetes in minority...

The fruits and seeds of the Rancho La Brea Pleistocene deposits

Creator:: Templeton, Bonnie Carolyn
Abstract:: More than 4,000 specimens of fruits and seeds were extracted from the matrix removed from inside the skulls of sabre-tooth cats excavated from various pits in the Rancho La Brea deposits. Of this number, spproximately 1,445 specimens are involved in this study. Many comparisons with modern fruits and seeds made...

Analysis of Bacteroidales 16S rRNA gene sequences from a geographically isolated human population

Creator:: Petersen, Carolyn A.
Abstract:: Standard methods of measuring fecal pollution in water do not distinguish between human and non-human sources. Molecular technology enabled the development of host-specific markers that distinguish fecal sources. Human specific PCR primers, HF183F and HF134F, were designed based on phylogenetic analyses of partial 16S rRNA gene sequences from the Bacteroidales...

Use of nondestructive spectroscopy to assess chlorophyll and nitrogen in fresh leaves

Creator:: Ding, Pinghai
Abstract:: Four aspects of factors influencing the accuracy of nondestructive chlorophyll (Chl) and nitrogen (N) measurement in fresh leaves were studied: (1) optimum wavelength (OW) identification; (2) indices development and evaluation; (3) influence of leaf properties; and (4) influence of meter parameters and sampling technique. Results were used to develop indices...

Factors affecting the incidence and severity of Phytophthora syringae cankers in pear (Pyrus communis) trees

Creator:: Laywisadkul, Srisangwan
Abstract:: Container grown pear trees were used to determine the effects of the following factors on the susceptibility to Phytophthora syringae: 1) tree nitrogen (N) status and foliar sprays of urea and copper-EDTA (CuEDTA); 2) dormancy and environmental conditions; 3) wound and wound age; and 4) chemical and biological control measures....
