Evaluation of Current Dairy Heifer Growth Models

Creator:: Zaworski, Erica M.
Abstract:: Growth models developed by Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) extension services for Holstein and Jersey heifer height and weight were evaluated using OSU dairy herd heifer data. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of the models to predict heights and weights of heifers in the OSU...

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...

Physiological effects of forb and legume pastures on lactating dairy cows as indicated by blood parameters

Creator:: Marr, Kaylee M.
Abstract:: Use of secondary metabolites in legumes and herbs as forage for dairy cattle is tested through analysis of blood parameters including beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), cholesterol, urea, creatinine, haptoglobin, bilirubin, thiol groups and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP). The pasture treatments were grass-based (‘Perun’ festulolium (X Festulolium braunii), ‘Rustler’ tall fescue (Festuca...

Effects of selenium supplementation during different trimesters of pregnancy on non-specific humoral immunity of pregnant beef cows and persistence of antibodies in their newborn calves

Creator:: Thompson-Hernandez, Ian
Abstract:: Immunosuppression during the periparturient period leads to increased susceptibility to infectious diseases in beef cows. Newborn calves rely on passive transfer of antibodies from their mothers at birth for protection against diseases in the first two months of age. It is unknown if supranutritional Se supplementation of cows during pregnancy...

Effects of Xanthohumol on Biomarkers of Metabolic Syndrome in Obese Rats

Creator:: Moreno Luna, Arlyn Y.
Abstract:: Flavonoids are a large family of compounds synthesized by plants that have a common chemical structure. It is believed that the health effects of fruits and vegetables are primarily due to dietary flavonoids content. Current research indicates that dietary flavonoids show promise for mitigating and/or preventing chronic conditions associated with...

DNA Mismatch Repair-Dependent Suppression of Genotoxicity of Benzo[a]pyrene Diol Epoxide

Creator:: Kernan, Casey P.
Abstract:: DNA mismatch repair (MMR) plays an important role in preserving genomic stability and reducing cancer risk. Environmental exposures to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are believed to contribute significantly to carcinogenesis. PAHs are found in food, air, water and soil and upon bioactivation can form diol epoxides which are electrophilic in...

Characterization of a Transgenic Mouse for Human Cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1)

Creator:: You, Hyekyoung Hannah
Abstract:: Cytochrome P450 1B1 (Cyp1B1) is a xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme, responsible for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) oxidative metabolism. CYP1B1 metabolically activates several species of environmentally relevant procarcinogenic PAHs to reactive carcinogens. PAHs are aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonists, leading to CYP1B1 upregulation. Though CYP1B1 is highly conserved across species, wild type...

Repression of DNA Mismatch Repair (MMR) in Arabidopsis thaliana through Dominant-Negative MMR Proteins

Creator:: Mohamed, Aly
Abstract:: The highly conserved multi-protein mismatch repair (MMR) system is known for its ability to correct post replication errors in genomic DNA. A hallmark of MMR deficiency in all organisms is microsatellite instability. The initiating proteins in the eukaryotic MMR system are hetrodimers formed with an integral MSH2 subunit and one...

Reduced toxicity of benzethonium chloride to Escherichia coli through adsorption onto titanium dioxide nanoparticles

Creator:: Waldron, Kerri Raven
Abstract:: Antimicrobial agents are being increasingly used in consumer soaps and detergents, despite a lack of data demonstrating their efficacy in such products. This study investigated the nature of the interaction between different crystalline structures of titanium dioxide nanoparticles and BTC, and explore which structure, if any, could be best used...
