Influence of temperature on the associative growth of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus

Creator:: Radke-Mitchell, Lyn C.
Abstract:: Optimum growth temperatures were determined for nine strains of Streptococcus thermophilus and ten strains of Lactobacillus bulgaricus, all commercial yogurt or yogurt starter isolates. Optimum growth temperatures ranged from 35 C to 42 C for S.thermophilus strains, averaging 38.6. Optimum growth temperatures for L.bulgaricus strains ranged from 43 C to...

Experiences of Weight-Based Stigmatization in Healthcare among Young Adults and Impact on Healthcare Engagement

Creator:: Bean, Maddison M.
Abstract:: Weight-based stigmatization (WBS) exists in healthcare and can be categorized as direct, indirect, or structural. WBS is harmful to individual’s health and contributes to worse healthcare engagement, including reduced care satisfaction, patient-centered communication (PCC), and utilization of services. Little is known about young adults’ experiences of WBS in healthcare. Young...

Characterizing Combustible and Electronic Cigarette Use During the Perinatal Period

Creator:: Seifert, Jessica R.
Abstract:: The use of electronic cigarettes (often referred to as vapes or e-cigs) has grown rapidly in the past decade. While these devices may not deliver the same level of carcinogens and toxicants as combustible cigarettes, they can deliver nicotine (a known developmental toxicant) as efficiently. Previous work suggests that, during...

Host exploitation by Dinocampus Coccinellae (Schrank) [Hymenoptera: Braconidae]

Creator:: Belnavis, Diane Lyn
Abstract:: Ecological relationships between D. coccinellae and its coccinellid hosts were examined in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, in 1982. The distribution and relative abundance of seven species of coccinellids from eight collecting sites were monitored to determine percent parasitism by D. coccinellae on a spatial and temporal basis. Host size and...

Defining and managing biohazardous waste in research-based universities in the United States : a survey of environmental health and safety professionals

Creator:: Mecklem, Robin Lyn
Abstract:: Biohazardous waste refers to wastes that are potentially infectious to humans, as well as wastes from animal or plant research that could be potentially infectious to these organisms, or could alter their genetic selection process. Research resulting in generation of biohazardous waste is typically conducted at large, research-based universities. The...

Understanding the impact of climate change on snowpack extent and measurement in the Columbia River Basin and nested sub basins

Creator:: Brown, Aimee Lyn
Abstract:: Shifting climate patterns in the Columbia River basin are affecting snow pack, and, as a result, stream flow throughout the region. In the Oregon Cascades, ever growing populations, and their associated activities, place increasing stress on an already over allocated hydrologic system. Political pressures, including the possibility of renegotiation or...

First principles studies of optical, electronic and mechanical properties of organic molecules and solids

Creator:: Barras, Faye Lyn
Abstract:: This thesis presents the results of quantum-mechanical first principles calculations of optical, electronic and mechanical properties of organic molecules and solids, which have diverse potential applications such as photovoltaics, flexible electronics, and mechanical catalysts with applications in force sensors and self-healing materials. The electronic and optoelectronic properties of organic thin...

Dynamics of the nearshore wave bottom boundary layer

Creator:: Foster, Diane Lyn
Abstract:: This thesis presents an examination of the nearshore wave bottom boundary layer under conditions of significant sediment response. Using both field observations and simple models, the response of the bottom boundary layer to random waves is shown to have a complex behavior. First, the linearized wave bottom boundary layer governing...

Performance in static, dynamic, and clinical tests of postural control in individuals with functional ankle instability

Creator:: Nakagawa, Lyn H.
Abstract:: Objectives: To evaluate postural control in individuals with functional ankle instability using static, dynamic, and clinical balance tests. Also, to examine the relationships between the performances in each of these tests. Design: Postural control was evaluated with a single leg balance test, a balance test involving movement, and the star...

Improving the Forage Species Selection Process through Research and Teaching Projects

Creator:: Randow, Brianna Lyn
Abstract:: Species selection is a complex process that forage producers and land managers face. Accurate tools and educational materials are needed to help make the decision process easier. Crop simulation models are one tool that could be utilized to predict yield and potential financial return of various species. Two crop simulation...
