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...

Fall 2022
Background: Although pediatric heart transplantation is a life-saving and effective therapy for children with cardiac disease, barriers remain due to a lack of available organs as well as transplant failure due to rejection. This dissertation aimed to increase knowledge related to immune risk...

Chanmugam, P. S., Okine, E. K., Wang, Z., Mir, P. S., Goonewardene, L. A., Mir, Z.
Four Alpine does were used in a 4 × 4 Latin square design to determine the effects of feeding canola oil at four levels: 0, 2, 4 and 6% on milk fatty acid profile. The sum of C12:0 + C14:0 + C16:0(hypercholesterolemic fatty acids) decreased linearly and C18:0 + C18:1: C16:0 (indicator of...

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...

Long-term cardiovascular and metabolic effects of hypoxia-induced intrauterine growth restriction
DownloadSpring 2011
Rueda-Clausen, Christian Federico
Cardiovascular and metabolic diseases are still the primary cause of death and disability in modern society. Although genetic factors play a fundamental role in the development of these chronic conditions, the remarkable variability in an individual’s susceptibility to develop these pathologies...

New Insight into the Role of Myocardial Fatty Acid Uptake and Utilization in Health and Disease
DownloadFall 2013
All mammalian cells rely on adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to maintain function and for survival. The heart has the highest basal ATP demand of any organ due to the necessity for continuous contraction. As such, the ability of the cardiomyocyte to monitor cellular energy status and adapt the supply...

Phenotypic correlations of fatty acid composition among intramuscular, subcutaneous and intermuscular fat tissues in concentrate-fed beef cattle of differing genotypes
Download2009
Wang, Z., Aldai, N., Osoro, K., Dugan, M. E. R., Crews Jr, D. H., Li, C.
In an attempt to predict intramuscular fatty acid composition using easily accessible fat depots, between-tissue correlations were studied in 75 Asturiana de los Valles bulls with different levels of muscular hypertrophy, and 25 Asturiana de la Montaña bulls. Trans-18:1 in intramuscular fat was...

Quantifying protein-fatty acid interactions using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry
Download2011
Liu, Lan, Kitova, Elena N., Klassen, John S.
The application of the direct electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) assay to quantify interactions between bovine β-lactoglobulin (Lg) and a series of fatty acids (FA), CH3(CH2)xCOOH, where x = 6 (caprylic acid, CpA), 8 (capric acid, CA), 10 (lauric acid, LA), 12 (myristic acid, MA),...
