Spring 2018
Acidocin B (AcdB), a bacteriocin from Lactobacillus acidophilus M46 that was initially reported to be a linear peptide, was purified and shown to be circular based on MALDI-TOF MS and MS/MS sequencing. MS analysis further revealed that AcdB is comprised of 58 amino acid residues, instead of 59...

Synthesis and biological evaluation of the lantibiotic peptide lactocin S and its analogues
DownloadSpring 2012
Lantibiotics (lanthionine containing antibiotics) are highly post-translationally modified peptides used by bacteria as a form of chemical warfare. In light of the challenges faced today in the field of antibacterial therapy, these potent natural products are useful lead compounds for the...

The use of crude cell extracts of lactic acid bacteria optimized for beta-galactosidase activity to form galactooligosaccharides with lactose, mannose, fucose, and N-acetylglucosamine
DownloadFall 2009
Several lactic acid bacteria contain β-galactosidases. Beta galactosidases catalyze lactose hydrolysis and transfer acceptor sugars onto galactose, producing galactooligosaccharides. The aim of this work was to exploit β-galactosidases of lactic acid bacteria as crude cell extracts to produce...

Using Intravaginal Probiotics to Lower the Incidence of Uterine Infections and Improve Reproductive Performance and Productivity of Dairy Cows in Dairy Farms in Alberta
DownloadFall 2018
Uterine infections are the number one reason for culling of cows in Canada and elsewhere because are associated with high incidence of infertility. Five hundred and twenty-six dairy cows (426 Holstein and 100 Jersey cows) from 4 dairy farms in Alberta (three farms had Holstein dairy cows and one...
