Interim report on a comparative study of benthic algal primary productivity in the AOSERP study area
Download1979
Hickman, M., Charlton, S. E. D., Jenkerson, C. G.
Studies concentrating upon the epilithon were conducted in five tributary rivers flowing into the Athabasca River: the Muskeg, Steepbank, Hangingstone, MacKay, and Ells rivers. The species composition of the epilithic algae was determined during June to November 1978. Diatoms and blue-green...

Owttrim, George W., Coleman, John R.
A recA-like gene isolated from the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis was cloned and partially characterized. When introduced into Escherichia coli recA mutants, the 7.5-kilobase-pair plasmid-borne DNA insert restored resistance to methyl methanesulfonate and UV irradiation, as well as...

Non-viral Gene Delivery of BMP-2 Plasmid from Collagen Based Scaffolds for Bone Regeneration Therapy
DownloadSpring 2021
Significant progress in the field of bone regeneration therapy has been achieved in the last two decades. While regeneration therapies with autogenous, allografts and exogenous grafts are remaining the preferred treatments, the outcomes remained are usually sub-optimal. Gene therapy holds a great...

Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Pal‐Nath, Dipasmita, Ozga, Jocelyn, Lemieux, M. Joanne, Weselake, Randall J., Chen, Guanqun
Triacylglycerol (TAG) is the major storage lipid in most terrestrial plants and microalgae, and has great nutritional and industrial value. Since the demand for vegetable oil is consistently increasing, numerous studies have been focused on improving the TAG content and modifying the fatty‐acid...

The expression of the cyanobacterial recA gene, isolated from Anabaena variabilis, has been examined at the levels of transcript and protein abundance. Exposure of the cyanobacterium to a variety of DNA-damaging agents, including mitomycin C, methyl methanesulfonate, and UV irradiation, results...

THE APPLICATION OF ALGAE FOR THE REMOVAL OF METALS AND NAPHTHENIC ACIDS FROM OIL SANDS TAILINGS POND WATER
DownloadFall 2014
Bitumen recovery produces a large volume of TPW, which must be reclaimed using an efficient and cost-effective method. In this thesis, the ability of algae for in situ treatment of TPW, with a focus on metal and total acid-extractable organics (TAOs) removal, was assessed. An indigenous alga,...

The POM monoclonals: A comprehensive set of antibodies to non-overlapping prion protein epitopes
Download2008
Hafner-Bratkovič, Iva, Aguzzi, Adriano, Vey, Martin, Polymenidou, Magdalini, Yajima, Bill , James, Michael N. G., Jerala, Roman, Moos, Rita, Scott, Mike, Shi, Yong-zhong, Wuthrich, Kurt, Garen, Graciela, Sigurdson, Christina, Hornemann, Simone, Bellon, Anne, Kav, Nat
PrPSc, a misfolded and aggregated form of the cellular prion protein PrPC, is the only defined constituent of the transmissible agent causing prion diseases. Expression of PrPC in the host organism is necessary for prion replication and for prion neurotoxicity. Understanding prion diseases...
