The results of SDS-PAGE and densitometry indicated that a significant amount of myofibrillar proteins was lost during surimi processing. Microfiltration (MF) was utilized to recover insoluble particulate. The MF-recovered proteins showed highly functional properties in gel hardness, cohesiveness, color, and water retention ability. The soluble proteins concentrated by ultrafiltration (UF)...
Experiments were designed to answer key questions about diatom-derived organic matter cycling (i.e., production and degradation) in coastal systems. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) production was examined in axenic batch cultures of five diatom species. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) release rates varied between species, but were significantly higher for all species...
Oregon's estuaries are important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. For these reasons, the Guin Library...
The Fishery Division of the Oregon State Game Commission
continued in 1950, with activities of previous years embraced under
the general categories of research, management, and production. Some
activities were expanded or added where a need arose, and others were
reduced or eliminated. In general the over —all program followed...

This dissertation describes two different projects. The first is the development of an oral DNA vaccine delivery system for fish. A novel oral DNA vaccine delivery system was developed for Rainbow Trout by combining non-viral vectors (polycationic liposomes or polycationic polymer) to facilitate the DNA vaccine's uptake by cell membranes...
Excavations conducted at Indian Sands (35-CU-67C), located along Oregon's southern coast, during 2002 and 2003 identified two discreet, artifact-bearing stratigraphic units. The uppermost unit is a deflated surface containing burnt shell and lithic artifacts associated with early Holocene ¹⁴C dates, while the underlying unit contained only lithic tools and debitage,...
This thesis reports on an investigation of flow patterns in
shallow geothermal wells in Klamath Falls, Oregon, Although
wells have been extensively used in the area, the exact nature of
the flows in the wells has not been characterized.
Flow characterization is a principal object of this study.
Horizontal crossflows...
