Climate and air quality impacts of boreal wildfires — new analytical approaches for the investigation of light absorption and atmospheric reactivity of wildfire particulate matter
DownloadSpring 2022
Wildfire smoke emissions contain substantial amounts of light-absorbing aerosols that can affect the radiation and cloud processes, resulting in climate impacts on regional and even global scales. The radiative impact of these light-absorbing aerosols is largely contributed by brown carbon (BrC),...

Spring 2022
In this dissertation, I examine the major texts of nineteenth-century African American abolitionist Martin Delany to show how he transforms literary genres to develop his arguments for emigration and the uplift of African Americans in the United States. By doing so, I argue first that Delany is...

Investigation of Failure Modes of Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite Flywheel Rotors for Energy Storage Systems
DownloadFall 2022
High-velocity and long-lifetime operating conditions of modern high-speed energy storage flywheel rotors may create the necessary conditions for failure modes not included in current quasi-static failure analyses. The central hypothesis for this thesis research is that (i) viscoelastic effects...

Temporary Foreign Work, Precarious Migrant Labor and Advocacy in Canada: A Critical Exploratory Case Study
DownloadFall 2020
Over the past forty-seven years, thousands of temporary foreign migrant workers have been arriving in Canada annually, to labor in sectors of precarious work including farming, caregiving and the service sector given the demand from employers seeking cheaper sources of labor or for work that...

Understanding the role of Clostridioides difficile and Vitamin D supplementation in shaping the gut microbiome of Canadian infants
DownloadSpring 2019
Introduction: The gut microbiome is shaped during infancy and has an important role in the development of both the immune and metabolic systems. Many early life exposures and events contribute to the composition of this complex intestinal environment, notably early infant diet and breastfeeding....

“Blown-pack” spoilage of beef by psychrotrophic Clostridium spp. occurs sporadically and resistance of the endospores to most interventions makes them very difficult to control. Current interventions used to control spoilage and pathogenic bacteria, such as acid washes and heat treatments, do...

Chemically defined diet alters the protective properties of fructo-oligosaccharides and isomalto-oligosaccharides in HLA-B27 transgenic rats
Download2014
Koleva, Petya, Ketabi, Ali, Dieleman, Levinus A., Gänzle, Michael G., Valcheva, Rosica
Non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDO) were shown to reduce inflammation in experimental colitis, but it remains unclear whether microbiota changes mediate their colitis-modulating effects. This study assessed intestinal microbiota and intestinal inflammation after feeding chemically defined...
