Relationships among weight status, dairy food consumption, food and physical activity behavior, and nutritional status parameters of preschoolers in Tillamook County, Oregon

Creator:: Frank, Sandra K.
Abstract:: The purpose of this cross-sectional population study was to provide an assessment of weight status of a county's preschool population utilizing the new growth charts and expressed as Body Mass Index, or BMI, -for- age percentile. This study was conducted in conjunction with an annual health screen for incoming kindergartners...

Progress Towards the Total Synthesis of Bazzanin K

Creator:: Salvo, Patrick
Abstract:: Molecular chirality plays a critical role in chemistry, biology, and medicine. To study and better understand conformational chirality, it is necessary to obtain structurally interesting molecules that exhibit this form of chirality. Our lab utilizes total synthesis and methodological development to obtain conformationally chiral natural products of interest. We believe...

Total Synthesis of Cephalotaxus Alkaloids and Synthetic Studies toward Bazzanin K

Creator:: Ju, Xuan
Abstract:: Dearomatization reactions exist broadly in biosynthesis and chemical synthesis. The highly functionalized atoms of arenes can be masked by it aromaticity, and upon dearomatization, those reactive atoms can be readily applied to bond formation and further manipulation. The total synthesis of (–)-cephalotaxine and (–)- homoharringtonine is described via an oxidative...

Vaccine beliefs of complementary and alternative medical (CAM) providers in Oregon

Creator:: Bean, Sandra J.
Abstract:: Health care providers, including complementary and alternative medical (CAM) practitioners, exert a significant influence on parental pediatric vaccination decisions. Use of CAM therapies is increasing in Oregon. Concomitantly, there has been a decade-long increase in parental vaccine refusal in Oregon, rising from 1 to 5 percent from 2000-2009. For example,...

Using DNA Metabarcoding to Study Interactions Between Native Bees and Plants: Technical Developments and Applications

Creator:: Arstingstall, Katherine A.
Abstract:: Pollination is an essential ecosystem service that sustains functioning ecosystems and aids in food production. In response to recent, widespread declines of managed and native bee populations, many land managers have shown interest in developing conservation and restoration plans for enhancing native bee habitat. However, there is a lack of...

Bioprospecting the Chemical Diversity of Plant-associated Fungi

Creator:: González-Montiel, Gisela Abigail
Abstract:: Fungi have long been used for discovery of new chemical scaffolds. In the clinical setting, the fungal natural products penicillin, statins, and cyclosporine have revolutionized medicine to treat diseases and infections. In the environment, fungal natural products have been used as herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides to protect crops, livestock, and...

Sensory, compositional and texture profile analysis of high-pressure treated fresh renneted cheese - Queso Fresco style

Creator:: Sandra
Abstract:: A sensory method was developed to determine cheese texture by hand evaluation. Cheese sensory evaluation was conducted by panelists (n=8) on four commercial samples in duplicates. Standards, descriptors, methods of each attribute evaluation, sample size, and ballot were developed based on panelists' consensus. Fifteen total attributes, divided into five groups,...

Measurement of the rates of reductive dechlorination of chlorinated phenols

Creator:: Nicholson, David K.
Abstract:: Knowledge of a compound's degradation pathway is crucial to the assessment of risk at contaminated sites. Pentachlorophenol and its metabolic products can serve as model compounds to study the fate and transport of halogenated aromatic compounds in the environment. Acclimation of anaerobic sewage sludge to pentachlorophenol produced a microbial consortium...

The household economy : examining the mediating roles of income diversification and home production on economic and subjective well-being of women in Malawi

Creator:: Chande-Binauli, Lucy S.
Abstract:: An integrated framework of Family Resource Management and Household Economic theory was utilized to develop a model of relationships between human capital, family characteristics and resources, number of income sources, hours spent in home production, total income and subjective well-being. This study utilized a sample of 129 women systematically selected...

Bioactivity Screening and Gene Activation Strategies in Fungi

Creator:: Coddington, Nathan C.
Abstract:: Natural products from plants, bacteria, and fungi play an important role in society. Over the last 35 years, natural products and their derivatives have inspired over 60% of all FDA approved small-molecule drugs, and are among the top prescribed therapeutics.1-2 Fleming’s discovery of the fungal antibiotic penicillin started the “Golden...
