Spring 2013
Chavali Venkata Subramanya, Ravi Shankar
The In-gel polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology developed by our group at the University of Alberta makes use of PCR reagents entrapped within nano-liter polyacrylamide gels. To adapt this technology for use at the point of care, methods were developed to preserve gel-based PCR reagents by...

Efficacy of conventional and novel antimicrobial treatments on the inactivation of desiccated cells and biofilms of Salmonella
DownloadSpring 2024
Repeated isolation of Salmonella from the dry and wet environments of the food industry poses a significant concern to human health. It is crucial to understand the influence of the various environmental conditions on Salmonella’s survival. The overall objective of this research was to evaluate...

Preliminary evaluation of Speswhite kaolin as a physical analogue material for unsaturated oil sands tailings
Download2023-10-02
Thin-lift deposition of treated oil sands tailings is currently investigated as a potential solution for creating a trafficable cap layer for future reclamation activities. To determine the optimal thickness of the cap layer, physical modeling experiments using the 50g-ton geotechnical beam...

Spring 2017
Salmonella survives in low moisture products over an extended time. Salmonella also resists dry heat, which questions the assumption that Salmonella outbreaks from intermediate moisture foods result mostly from post-processing contamination. Some Enterobacteriaceae possess a genomic island called...
