“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...

Exploring the Anaerobic Co-digestion of Food Waste, Brewery Waste, and Fats, Oils, and Greases through Biomethane Potential Testing and Response Surface Methodology

Creator:: Liberman, Madalyn R.
Abstract:: Food waste (FW), brewery waste (BW), and fats, oils, and greases (FOG), are prevalent waste streams in municipalities across the country, particularly in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). Anaerobic digestion (AD), the microbial-mediated transformation of organic waste into methane-rich biogas, offers a sustainable, energy-generating, waste management solution for these wastes. Anaerobic...

Terrain-Aware Probabilistic Search Planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Creator:: Schomer, Nathan L.
Abstract:: Mountain search and rescue is a vital form of emergency response to assist people in austere environments (e.g., extreme terrain, poor weather). Volunteer mountain search and rescue teams in the United States have begun adopting consumer- grade unmanned aerial vehicles to assist a variety of tasks (e.g., search, resource delivery);...

Automated Monitoring of Modular Construction Factories using Computer Vision

Creator:: Panahi, Roshan
Abstract:: Modular construction is increasingly seen as an efficient construction method in terms of time, cost, and energy. The full realization of these advantages partly relies on the efficiency of the production process inside the modular factories, which currently rely on tedious manual monitoring methods or expensive automated techniques. As a...

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...

Unoccupied aircraft systems in forest monitoring applications

Creator:: Barker, Matthew I.
Abstract:: In recent years, unoccupied aircraft systems (UAS) have become increasingly affordable and straightforward to incorporate in monitoring applications of forested ecosystems. This shift has facilitated interest in using these tools to monitor aspects of forest ecosystems including vegetation health, forest structure and composition, and potential habitat provided by these systems....

Life History of the Northern Rubber Boa (Charina bottae) in Oregon

Creator:: Leppin, Mark V.
Abstract:: The Northern Rubber Boa (Charina bottae) is a small, secretive boa native to the Pacific Northwest. Despite this being possibly the highest latitude boas and one of only two boas native to the continental U.S., it has received surprisingly little attention. Most of the research on the natural history of...

Conversion of Waste Plastics to Diesel-Like Fuel Through Pyrolysis

Creator:: Carlson, Kayla
Abstract:: As the development, processing, and manufacturing of plastic has improved over the years, so has our amount of plastic waste. Currently, only approximately 9% of post-consumer plastics get recycled. The other 91% is buried in landfills, burned, ends up in the ocean, or is accumulating in communities without access to...

Numerical Simulation of a Thouless Pump

Creator:: Wall, Bryce
Abstract:: At the macroscopic scale, we have pumps that use the classical laws of physics to move liquids at a well defined rate. In the microscopic world, physicists are exploring pumps that make use of quantum mechanical behavior to build analogous pumps for quantum particles. The importance of such “quantum pumps”...

Student Club Analysis: The Effects of Organizational Structuring on Competition Performance

Creator:: Chandler, Jacob J.
Abstract:: This thesis aims to explore the effects of organizational and management principles within the context of a student club – an international Formula Student team. Research on the effects of organizational structuring on student club performance tends to be qualitative in nature. While considering the inherent complexity of the human...
