Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has been recently studied for its health-promoting and disease-preventing properties. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pressure (100-600 MPa), temperature (60-120˚C) and treatment time (0-14 min) on CLA content in milk and anhydrous milk fat (AMF) rich in CLA. In milk...
Implementation climate is the most proximal organizational predictor of implementation success. First-level supervisors are in a pivotal position to influence implementation climate, as they directly oversee frontline staff who deliver evidence-based interventions (EBIs). First-level supervisors who exhibit strong leadership and utilize best practices in supervision may be able to establish...
SEE ARTICLE FOR ABSTRACT IN SPANISH. English Abstract: In order to study the quantitative relationship between tuber yield of two potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars (‘Alpha’, susceptible, and ‘Zafiro’, moderately resistant to late blight), and severity of the pathogen in Toluca, México, managed by weekly foliar sprays of 0.575 kg...
Palisade Russet is a medium-late maturing, lightly russeted potato cultivar notable for its resistance to late blight (Phytophthora infestans) infection of foliage and tuber. Palisade Russet is suitable for processing with low tuber glucose concentrations observed following long-term storage at a temperature as low as 5.6A degrees C with consistently...
Improving safety education could contribute to the preparation of better professional engineers. Safety topics are not holistically embedded in transportation course curricula. This thesis explores the current state in which safety is being incorporated in transportation course curricula in terms of design and compares the uses of safety data in...
Ocean users and marine scientists both have connections to the sea. This research explores how the nature of their connection to the sea leads to different perceptions of risk and comfort with uncertainty, and how these differences might be important to consider when one group has information another group needs....
Energy issues are becoming one of the most pressing topics in today's political and cultural landscape, particularly in the midst of the climate crisis. Globally, a variety of renewable energy projects are under development to meet energy demand without continuing to overburden the natural environment of our planet, with profound...
Despite its promise as a potentially beneficial new source of energy, the ocean-based renewable energy industry is still in its infancy, and like any new idea there are many unknowns with the potential to affect both people and our natural environments. A permit for marine renewable energy (MRE) must cut...
