Rotifers and brine shrimp (Artemia) are important prey items for rearing marine fish larvae. Their availability in the water column may be reduced when they are transferred to larval rearing tanks at lower temperature. In this study, Brachionus rotundiformis (SS-type) and Brachionus plicatilis (L-type) were semi-continuously cultured and fed on...

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa possesses two LuxR-LuxI
type quorum-sensing systems that use diffusible acyl-homoserine lactone molecules to
autoinduce and coordinate expression of multiple virulence factors. We conducted a highthroughput
screen for mutants deficient in skim-milk proteolysis—a quorum-sensing
dependent phenotype—using a nonredundant transposon-insertion library representing
most nonessential genes in P....
With the expansion of the Tillamook Creamery, in Tillamook Oregon, to double or more
its cheese production, the demand for milk presents an economic opportunity for the member
dairies of the Tillamook County Creamery Association. Before area dairies can expand their
herd size to increase milk production for the creamery,...
The purpose of this study was to investigate some of the
factors from childhood experience which might contribute to the kind
of church attendance practices which individuals adopt as adults.
The factors chosen for investigation were enforced church attendance
in childhood, parental church attendance practices, the kind of discipline
employed...
The role of schools and physical education curriculum in the promotion of physical activity (PA) has been widely recognized in recent years and schools have been identified as an appropriate setting for the promotion of PA (Cale, 2000). Physical educators have the unique role of working with children in a...
The pregnancy and postpartum periods are full of major life transitions. So often, the focus of the literature is about the unborn baby and physical changes a woman experiences throughout this timeframe. Many sources often overlook women’s personal experiences in the perinatal period. Despite an increase in perinatal mood and...
Since harvest levels of many of the world's fisheries are not likely to increase in
the foreseeable future, resource managers and seafood processors need to develop
improved strategies to maximize the utilization and benefits of current catches. In
addition to increasing utilization and benefits, seafood processors are subject to the...
The fishing industry in the Pacific Northwest is a dynamic and highly competitive industry that must constantly respond to rapidly changing resource, regulatory and market forces. These forces have already had a significant impact on our fisheries and will continue to do so as we learn more about the biology...
