Bacteriophages as antimicrobial agents against bacterial contaminants in yeast fermentation processes
DownloadFall 2013
Bacterial contaminants are ubiquitous in yeast fermentation processes for biofuel production. In general, they compete with yeasts for nutrients, reducing overall production yield. The present project investigates the application of bacteriophages (phages), viruses infecting and killing...

Design and synthesis of renewable lipid-based nanocarriers with thermosensitivity for targeted drug delivery applications
DownloadSpring 2024
Numerous drug molecules currently available on the market suffer from short half-life, in vivo instability, poor bioavailability, rapid degradation and inappropriate distribution. While nanocarriers have emerged as a promising solution to address these issues, the primary objective and challenge...

Fall 2009
This study develops the water requirement factors for different thermo-chemical and biochemical biomass conversion pathways for production of biofuels and biopower. Twelve biomass conversion pathways based on six biomass feedstocks are assessed. For all these pathways integrated water and...

Multiple sources suggest that insulin resistance and derangements of cardiac metabolism are among the earliest signs of type-2 diabetes detected in the heart. Unfortunately, limited evidence reflects early changes in cardiac mitochondrial metabolism linked to the development of this disease....

Heart failure is associated with major changes in cardiac energy metabolism that decrease cardiac efficiency, which can reduce cardiac function. In severe heart failure there is a shift back toward a fetal heart metabolism, with a decrease in mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and increase in...

Growth of oleaginous yeasts on mixed C5 and C6 sugar streams to generate lipid feedstocks for renewable hydrocarbon production
DownloadSpring 2022
Microbial lipids are a promising feedstock to produce renewable fuels. Lignocellulosic feedstocks can provide multiple carbon sources for microbial growth, such as hexoses (C6) and pentoses (C5). Oleaginous yeasts can convert C5 and C6 sugars to microbial lipids that can be further processed into...

Litter birth weight phenotype and maternal n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation in pigs
DownloadSpring 2013
Research reported in this thesis investigated effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) supplementation, litter birth weight phenotype, and their possible interactions, on reproductive performance of the gilt and sow and postnatal performance of the litter. In an initial study, LCPUFA...
