  • Validation of Baking to Reduce Coliform Counts and Salmonella in Cookie Dough

    Creator:
    Wilson, Julia M.
    Abstract:
    This study aimed to determine the efficacy of baking to reduce bacterial populations (an unknown contaminant or Salmonella) in cookie dough. Baking conditions (time and temperature parameters) were selected based on conditions commonly used in industry. The first study (Chapter 2), “Baking as Validation for Control of Coliform Counts in...

  • The risk of Salmonella spp. from small poultry operations in Oregon

    Creator:
    Diaz-Hui, Jonathan
    Abstract:
    Salmonella is a bacterium responsible for several illnesses, including typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, and salmonellosis. It is commonly found in animal products, including poultry. Determination of potential reservoirs of Salmonella contamination is important to mitigate the risk of transmission and possible outbreaks. Outbreaks can negatively impact the livelihood of local...

  • Analysis of Alternative Donor Breast Milk Pasteurization Techniques and Their Impact on Bile Salt-Stimulated Lipase Activity

    Creator:
    Victor, Ashley F.
    Abstract:
    While breast milk is considered the best nourishment for newborns, they have a lowered ability to digest the fat rich liquid due to decreased lipase secretion for the first few months after birth. To offset this, breast milk itself contains Bile Salt-Stimulated Lipase (BSSL) which significantly heightens fat digestion ability....

  • Photocatalytic Treatment of Stormwater Runoff using Puralytics LilyPad

    Creator:
    Laurance, Jon
    Abstract:
    Stormwater picks up pollutants as it flows over impervious surfaces before ending up in water resources. Best management practices are implemented to remove pollutants from stormwater. Puralytics manufactures a stormwater treatment product called the LilyPad. The LilyPad consists of a titanium dioxide nanoparticle photocatalyst immobilized on polypropylene substrate. Treatment of...

  • Comparison of Experimentally-determined and Model-estimated Attachment Efficiency for Predicting Nanoparticle Aggregation

    Creator:
    Kennard, Jasmin J.
    Abstract:
    The widespread use of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in industrial applications and consumer products makes their release to the environment inevitable. Understanding the aggregation behavior of ENPs is crucial to understanding their fate, transport and toxicology in aquatic systems. This study investigated the comparability of experimentally-determined and model-estimated attachment efficiencies for...
