The Signaling Role of Divalent Cations in Clostridium perfringens Spore Germination

Creator:: Almatrafi, Roua
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is an anaerobic, gram-positive, rod-shaped, spore-forming bacterium that leads to a broad range of diseases in humans and animals [23, 27, 50]. Among seven C. perfringens types (type A-G), type F is known to be the most common bacteria that is responsible for causing human food-borne disease outbreaks...

Thermal hydraulic analysis of the Oregon State TRIGA Reactor using RELAP5-3D

Creator:: Marcum, Wade R.
Abstract:: Oregon State University has recently conducted a complete core conversion analysis as part of the Reduced Enrichment for Research and Test Reactors Pprogram. The goals of the thermal hydraulic analyses were to calculate natural circulation flow rates, coolant temperatures and fuel temperatures as a function of core power for both...

Biochemical and physical factors affecting fish ball

Creator:: Kok, Tiong Ngei, 1974-
Abstract:: Fish ball is an extruded surimi-based product that is popular among Asian communities. In the manufacturing of fish ball, optimum floatation is extremely important for maximal production. Factors affecting floatation of fish ball in water were investigated. The density of threadfin bream surimi paste significantly decreased (P<O.05) as moisture content...

Inactivation Strategy for Clostridium perfringens Spores Adhered onto Stainless Steel Surfaces

Creator:: Alzubeidi, Yasmeen S.
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is a spore-forming pathogenic bacterium that causes a variety of diseases in human and animals. C. perfringens type A isolates produce enterotoxin (CPE) causing food poisoning (FP) and non-food-borne (NFB) gastrointestinal (GI) diseases including antibiotic-associated diarrhea and sporadic diarrhea. C. perfringens type A food poisoning currently ranks as...

Comprehensive Characterization of Motion of a Helical Coil Due to Flow Induced Vibration

Creator:: Harmon, Paul L.
Abstract:: Mechanical vibrations compromise the integrity of key components of thermal power plants. Without careful design, strong resonances during steady state operation can wear these components to the point of failure, leading to an unsafe situation that may force a plant to shut down. The purpose of this research is to...

Microbiology of basalts targeted for deep geological carbon sequestration : field observations and laboratory experiments

Creator:: Lavalleur, Heather J.
Abstract:: With rising concentrations of CO₂ in the Earth's atmosphere causing concern about climate change, many solutions are being presented to decrease emissions. One of the proposed solutions is to sequester excess CO₂ in geological formations such as basalt. The deep subsurface is known to harbor much of the microbial biomass...

Catalytic chemical vapor deposition synthesis of carbon nanotubes from methane on SiO supported Fe and Fe−Ni catalysts

Creator:: Nakagawa, Ayako
Abstract:: Influences of operating conditions on the production of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were studied using Fe and Fe-Ni bimetallic catalysts supported on silicon monoxide (SiO). The catalysts were prepared in three steps: (1) impregnation of SiO powders with ferric nitride or combinations of ferric and nickel nitrides, (2) oxidation of nitrides...

Refrigerated seawater depuration for reducing Vibrio parahaemolyticus contamination in raw Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas)

Creator:: Yang, Qianru
Abstract:: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a seafood-borne pathogen that can cause gastroenteritis in humans. This study investigated the effectiveness of refrigerated seawater (5°C) depuration on reducing V. parahaemolyticus in raw Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas). Raw Pacific oysters were inoculated with a mixed culture of five clinical strains of V. parahaemolyticus and depurated...

“Red Light, Yellow Light!”: Evaluating the Anti-Listerial Potential of Bacillus Isolate Metabolites Using a High-Throughput Chromogenic Assay”

Creator:: Johnson, Taylor S.
Abstract:: Listeria monocytogenes contamination continues to pose challenges for the food industry and there is demand for effective methods of food preservation and protection that can also be considered clean label. A promising source of antilisterial compounds may be sourced from bacteria that produce novel byproducts. Ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified...

Adaptive Self-governance of Small-scale Commercial Fishers in Northeast Puerto Rico: Characterizing Formal and Informal Cooperation during Times of Crises

Creator:: Gómez-Andújar, Nicolás X.
Abstract:: Small-scale fisheries often suffer from weak, formal governance, and in response they organize in various ways. These self-organizational arrangements rely on the capacity of informal institutions, such as norms and communication, in generating social cohesion among actors in the supply chain and therefore improve the likelihood of generating commonly devised...
