The cholesterol content (mg/100 g wet tissue) of the
longissimus dorsi muscle and the subcutaneous adipose
tissue of "Country Natural Beef" and regularly produced
beef was determined by a spectrophotometric method.
Proximate analysis (moisture, fat and protein contents) of
both types of beef was also determined.
Country Natural Beef (natural...
A method is described for the determination of N-nitrosoproline
(NOPRO) in cured meat products. NOPRO was extracted with ethyl
acetate from a slurry of cured meat and water after the addition of
ammonium sulfamate and acid. This nitrosamino acid was converted
to the methyl ester and after further purification, it...
An Internet Map Server (IMS) web site was constructed with the goal of
helping middle- through high-school students learn about ocean processes. This IMS was
developed in conjunction with the activities of the Science & Math Investigative
Learning Experience (SMILE) program, and for eventual use with the Oregon Coastal
Atlas,...
Sports, being one of the most popular forms of social play for children (Felfe et al., 2016), can contribute to a child’s development, as they are associated with “physical growth, biological maturation, behavioral development, psychological, and social well-being” (Bailey et al., 2015). The purpose of this study was to attempt...
The purpose of this study was to examine how fearful and self-conscious shyness subtypes are related to shame, dissociation, and PTSD following traumatic experiences. We hypothesized self-conscious shyness, characterized by feelings of embarrassment and fear of public scrutiny, to be related to symptoms of high betrayal. We predicted fearful shyness,...
This thesis examines the role of Erikson’s (1950) theory of generativity in facilitating knowledge transfer during the preretirement transition. McAdams and de St. Aubin’s (1992) updated framework for generativity is used as a theoretical foundation to explain motivation and actions during this period. Through the use of multiple-case studies, twenty-one...
The imposition of sexually objectifying experiences on women socializes women to engage in self-objectification, or the act of placing greater value in physical appearance than internal well-being. These two studies explored the underlying mechanisms linking self-objectification to negative subjective well-being among a group of young adult women (ages 18-26) and...
There is increasing evidence that the type of land cover surrounding remnant patches of native habitats (the ‘matrix’) can modify effects of landscape change on biodiversity; thus the traditional idea of dichotomous habitat and non-habitat following island biogeography theory is insufficient in complex landscapes. Matrix type can have dramatic influences...
The purposes of the study were: (1) to provide a descriptive
analysis and historical record of the undergraduate OSU Fourth Cycle
Urban/Rural-Migrant Teacher Corps program; (2) to follow up former
OSU Fourth Cycle corps members to determine their employment status
and attitudes toward their educational experiences; and (3) to determine...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the use
of preblended, prerigor beef in reduced salt meat batters.
The functional properties of water-holding capacity, fat
binding and gel strength were evaluated. Proximate
analyses (protein, moisture and fat contents) of all
cooked samples were performed, in duplicate.
The sternomandibularis muscle...
