Maternal long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid status during pregnancy and lactation in the APrON cohort.
DownloadFall 2013
INTRODUCTION: Docosahexaenoic (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) are long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) that are essential for fetal and infant development. The overall aim of the study was to characterize DHA, EPA and AA status during pregnancy and lactation in the first cohort of the...

Background: Vitamin A status is an important health determinant. Deficiency of this micronutrient is a serious global health issue in the developing nations as the leading cause of preventable blindness in children and is a significant contributor to long-term morbidity and mortality. Nutritional...

Nutritional Factors Impacting Intestinal Lipid Metabolism Using a Model of Low Birth Weight Swine
DownloadSpring 2018
Introduction: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as obesity, type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are increasing at an alarming rate globally. A common feature in these conditions is increased adiposity leading to insulin resistance (IR). Dyslipidemia is a major contributing...

The nature and structure of asphaltene nanoaggregates are frequently the subject of debate and speculation in the literature. The continental asphaltene nano-aggregate model, characterized by the presence of alkyl chains on their surface, and the archipelago nano-aggregate model, characterized...

Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of nutrition, temperature during feed withdrawal, shackling duration, sex and age at processing on broiler quality. Low energy (94% of recommended) diets resulted in a lower percentage of carcass fat while increasing the percentage of carcass...

A robust heat flux sensor was developed in order to quantify the energy release from high heat load scenarios, such as wildland fires. In order to reduce the high errors in the heat flux data, the sensor was modified to measure the differential temperature so as to mitigate the propagation of...

Dilatometry and calorimetry are well-established techniques, and have been used successfully for decades; however, they are seldom used to quantify the progress of a transformation. Most often, these techniques are used to detect start and finish of transformations. When used quantitatively,...

School staff identified barriers, facilitators, and perceptions of implementing a school nutrition policy in a First Nation community school
DownloadFall 2016
School health policies establish nutrition standards for schools and provide guidelines for the operation of a health-focused school environment. Little research has been conducted to understand implementation of school nutrition policies, and even fewer studies have assessed policy...

Simultaneous measurement of protein and energy metabolism and application to determine lysine requirements in sows
DownloadSpring 2011
Simultaneous measurements of energy and protein metabolism can provide valuable information about their interactions. Dietary lysine is limiting in typical feedstuffs fed to swine and, therefore, limits protein synthesis. Current recommendations for dietary amino acid and energy intakes may not...

Two studies examined the effects of 3 commercial cat diets varying in glycemic index (GI) based on ingredient composition and starch content (34.1, 29.5, and 23.6% NFE for high, medium, and low GI, respectively) on metabolizable energy (ME), indirect calorimetry and blood measurements. In Study...
