Insights into an Invasive Jumping Earthworm: Assessing the Invasion Risk and Influence on Soil Organic Matter by Amynthas agrestis in Western Oregon

Creator:: Tucker Serniak, Linda F.
Abstract:: Increased globalization has greatly increased the ability for species to travel outside of their native range and reach all parts of the world. While most species do not have an impact in new habitats, a small percentage are able to establish a new population and spread, causing ecological damage and...

Bioethanol production from lignocellulosicbiomass: assessing genes linked to acetic acid stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Montgomery, Tyler P.
Abstract:: Lignocellulosic biomass represents a vast and renewable source of fermentable sugar for production of biofuels. However, native lignocellulose—comprised of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin—is refractory to degradation because the crystalline cellulose is not easily hydrolyzed by cellulases. Standard chemical treatments of lignocellulose to reduce the crystallinity of cellulose prior to enzymatic...

Oregon Health & Science University's understanding of cultural competency

Creator:: Racansky, Pamela A.
Abstract:: The United States population continues to increase and diversify. The cultural composition within the United States embodies a multitude of people from a variety of belief systems, religious backgrounds, and ethnicities. Within current biomedical practice, many of these differences are often marginalized, leaving populations with unsatisfactory experiences in seeking health...

Feedback as Critical Care: An Antiracist, Feminist Praxis for Composition

Creator:: Rowland, Olivia A.
Abstract:: Feminist compositionists have long argued for addressing the feminization of composition, or its association with low value “women’s work,” by revaluing caring labor (Enos; Heinert and Phillips; Tuell). However, this argument assumes that writing teachers’ care work is beneficial for all students and teachers. Focusing on responding to student writing...

The role of manganese peroxidase in biomass conversion technologies

Creator:: Yee, Kelsey L.
Abstract:: Currently, the technologies used to separate lignocellulosic biomass into its component parts (cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) and enzymatically hydrolyze the cellulose to glucose for conversion to ethanol could be improved economically and in terms of efficiency. A major impediment to utilizing the biomass is the presence of residual lignin. The...

Translation of dengue virus RNA : influence of the untranslated regions on 5´-cap dependent translation and ribosome scanning

Creator:: Chiu, Wei-Wei
Abstract:: In this thesis, I studied the translation of dengue virus RNA using a luciferase reporter gene system in Vero cells. The dengue reporter mRNA construct, which harbors 5´-terminal viral nts and 3´-terminal nts, could be translated efficiently compared to an alpha globin reporter construct. The 5´-cap structure and 3´-untranslated region...
