A study of the deterioration of X-ray fluoroscopic screens

Creator:: Properzio, William Stuart, 1940-
Abstract:: From the time when fluoroscopic screens were first used there have been scattered references to reduction in their light output due to age, use, etc. References are scarce and usually devoid of quantitative data. A long-range program has been set up in an effort to arrive at some meaningful information....

The Examination of Escherichia coli Contamination via Agricultural Water Applications and Survival During Pre-Harvest Field Curing of Dry Bulb Onions

Creator:: Racine, Jason R.
Abstract:: 2020 and 2021 brought the first reported outbreaks of salmonellosis epidemiologically linked to dry bulb onions in the United States. Outbreak investigations were not able to implicate a specific source of the contamination but speculated that contaminated water was a significant contributor. The Produce Safety Rule established minimum standards for...

Expression of prolactin in feline mammary adenomas and adenocarcinomas

Creator:: Trummel, Danielle K.
Abstract:: Mammary tumors are the third most common tumor in cats after cutaneous neoplasia and lymphosarcoma. More than 80% of feline mammary tumors are adenocarcinomas, which are similar to human mammary adenocarcinomas in their biologic behavior and histologic characteristics. Despite treatment with radical mastectomy, feline mammary adenocarcinoma is associated with a...

Embodying Gaia: Bruno Latour’s Gaia and the Earthboundedness of Contemplative Pedagogy (a snail’s view)

Creator:: Schindler, Jason A.
Abstract:: Bruno Latour’s Facing Gaia provokes us to embrace our Earthboundedness to approach the problematic political ecologies of the Anthropocene. Latour’s call for the Earthbound is to re-trace networks of society, institutions, and meaning and to challenge, as enemy, those that would continue to behave as if we lived on more...

Recombineering and stable integration of the Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae 61 hrp/hrc cluster into the genome of the soil bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf0-1

Creator:: Thomas, William J., Chang, Jeff, Thireault, Caitlin A., and Kimbrel, Jeffrey
Abstract:: Many Gram-negative bacteria use a type III secretion system (T3SS) to establish associations with their hosts. The T3SS is a conduit for direct injection of type-III effector proteins into host cells, where they manipulate the host for the benefit of the infecting bacterium. For plant-associated pathogens, the variations in number...

Parametric manifolds. II. Intrinsic approach

Creator:: Boersma, Stuart and Dray, Tevian
Abstract:: A parametric manifold is a manifold on which all tensor fields depend on an additional parameter, such as time, together with a parametric structure, namely a given (parametric) one‐form field. Such a manifold admits natural generalizations of Lie differentiation, exterior differentiation, and covariant differentiation, all based on a nonstandard action...

Parametric manifolds. I. Extrinsic approach

Creator:: Boersma, Stuart and Dray, Tevian
Abstract:: A parametric manifold can be viewed as the manifold of orbits of a (regular) foliation of a manifold by means of a family of curves. If the foliation is hypersurface orthogonal, the parametric manifold is equivalent to the one‐parameter family of hypersurfaces orthogonal to the curves, each of which inherits...

Abstract:: The Gorda Escarpment is a north facing scarp immediately south of the Mendocino transform fault (the Gorda/Juan de Fuca-Pacific plate boundary) between 126°W and the Mendocino triple junction. It elevates the seafloor at the northern edge of the Vizcaino block, part of the Pacific plate, ~1.5 km above the seafloor...

Creator:: Hyter, Stephen D.
Abstract:: Cutaneous melanoma remains the deadliest form of skin cancer, with a diagnosis of metastasis indicating a median survival rate of less than a year. Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation, especially childhood sun exposure, is an important etiological risk factor of melanoma. Previous studies determined that mice selectively lacking the nuclear hormone...

Cleaning and Sanitizing Surfaces on Produce Farms: Optimizing What, How, and When

Creator:: Ohman, Erik
Abstract:: Production of fresh produce takes place outdoors, and therefore, is exposed to many routes of contamination (e.g., soil, contaminated water, manure, etc.) by human pathogens. Although precautions are taken to reduce this risk, pathogens can be regularly introduced to produce handling facilities. To manage the risk of cross-contamination from potentially...

Abstract:: Informed by feminist and queer theories, this thesis provides an alternate reading of selected narratives from the Hindu epic “Mahabharata”. By queering the narratives from the epic, this thesis highlights the existence of fluid notions of sexuality and gender present within Hindu religious texts. In doing so, the study aims...

Creator:: Scheffer, Sonja J., Lewis, Matthew L., Gaimari, Stephen D., and Reitz, Stuart R.
Abstract:: Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) is a highly destructive invasive leafminer pest currently causing extensive damage to vegetable and horticultural crops around the world. Liriomyza langei Frick is a leafminer pest native to California that cannot currently be morphologically distinguished from L. huidobrensis. We used a DNA-barcoding approach, a published PCR-RFLP method,...

A Dimensionless Invariant for Relative Size at Sex Change in Animals: Explanation and Implications

Creator:: Gardner, Andy, Allsop, David J., Charnov, Eric L., and West, Stuart A.
Abstract:: Recent comparative studies across sex-changing animals have found that the relative size and age at sex change are strikingly invariant. In particular, 91%–97% of the variation in size at sex change across species can be explained by the simple rule that individuals change sex when they reach 72% of their...

Abstract:: BACKGROUND: The spread of the western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), resulted in the worldwide destabilization of established integrated pest management programs for many crops. Efforts to control the pest and the thrips-vectored tospoviruses with calendar applications of broad-spectrum insecticides have been unsuccessful. The result has been a...
