Reduction of Salmonella spp. on In-shell Hazelnuts Using Continuous Steam Blanching and Prevalence of Salmonella spp. on In-shell Oregon Hazelnuts

Creator:: Letchworth, Christopher A.
Abstract:: Tree nuts have been implicated in a number of foodborne outbreaks and recalls in recent years linked to enteric pathogens, particularly Salmonella. Therefore, prior to distribution and marketing, it is necessary to understand the biological risks associated with the consumption of tree nuts and to find effective methods to inactivate...

Studies toward the synthesis of coibamide A and analogues

Creator:: Li, Dong
Abstract:: Coibamide A is a highly methylated cyclic depsipeptide isolated from Panamanian marine filamentous cyanobacteria as part of an International Cooperative Biodiversity Groups (ICBG) program based in Panama. This structurally unique agent exhibits potent cancer cell toxicity with an unprecedented selectivity profile in the National Cancer Institute (NCI) 60 cell line...

Chlamydiae under stress : environmental conditions influence the production and localization of chlamydial antigens

Creator:: Brown, Wendy J.
Abstract:: Chlamydiae are obligate intracellular pathogens that cause several serious conditions within the human host. Many of the symptoms associated with infection are thought to stem from the development of aberrant, or persistent, chlamydiae. Factors leading to chlamydial persistence include deprivation of amino acids, the release of certain cellular factors, or...

Genomic characterization of a novel leporid Herpes simplex virus

Creator:: Babra, Bobby A.
Abstract:: The viral family Herpesviridae consists of large double stranded DNA viruses including eight species that infect humans with varying pathology from benign rashes to cancerous cell transformation. From three subfamilies, alpha-, beta- and gammaherpes, the alphaherpes contains the genera iltovirus, mardivirus, varicellovirus and simplex, two of which, the human simplex...

Utilization of lignocellulosic polysaccharides

Creator:: Fenske, John J.
Abstract:: Lignocellulosic biomass represents a vast supply of fermentable carbohydrates and functional aromatic compounds. Conversion of lignocellulosics to ethanol and other useful products would be of widespread economical and environmental benefit. Better understanding of the behavior of different lignicellulosic feedstocks in fermentation protocols as well as catalytic activities involved in lignocellulosic...

Genetics of tocopherol composition in sunflower seed

Creator:: Hass, Catherine G.
Abstract:: Tocopherols are plant secondary metabolites that are known collectively as vitamin E. Tocopherol compounds act as potent antioxidants by quenching free radicals and protecting fatty acids from oxidative damage. In humans (in vivo) tocopherols protect membrane lipids from breaking down, while in oils (in vitro) tocopherols protect fatty acids from...

The role and function of fruit trees and fruit tree-based agroforestry systems in a highland watershed in northern Thailand

Creator:: Withrow-Robinson, Bradford A.
Abstract:: Field studies were conducted from 1996 to 1998 in three villages in a Highland watershed in Mae Hong Son Province, northern Thailand. The objectives of the study were to classify and define the fruit-based agroforestry cropping system and investigate management activities used by villagers. In the first part of the...

Responses and relationships among Fusarium species, sweet corn, and western spotted cucumber beetles

Creator:: Miller, Nathan L. (Nathan Louis)
Abstract:: Sweet corn (Zea mays L.) yields in the Willamette Valley of Oregon have been declining since the early 1990’s. Studies were done to determine if there is a relationship between ear weight and several disease parameters including necrotic crowns or stalk nodes, nodal root rot, radicle root rot, and sub-crown...

Translation of dengue virus RNA : influence of the untranslated regions on 5´-cap dependent translation and ribosome scanning

Creator:: Chiu, Wei-Wei
Abstract:: In this thesis, I studied the translation of dengue virus RNA using a luciferase reporter gene system in Vero cells. The dengue reporter mRNA construct, which harbors 5´-terminal viral nts and 3´-terminal nts, could be translated efficiently compared to an alpha globin reporter construct. The 5´-cap structure and 3´-untranslated region...
