Modulation of the uptake and toxicity of PFOA by Polystyrene and Titanium dioxide nanoparticles in Pacific oysters (Magallana gigas) and Daphnia (Daphnia magna)
DownloadFall 2023
Nanomaterial toxicity is a major concern in today’s world. The benefits of nanoparticle use have led to the production of various kinds of nanomaterials including a high volume of nanoplastics, TiO2 nanoparticles, and CeO nanoparticles. Different nanomaterials are shown to be a suitable vector...

Non digestible carbohydrates in the diet determine toxicity of irinotecan (CPT-11)/5-fluorouracil in rats independently of β-glucuronidase activity in intestinal lumen
DownloadFall 2012
Aim of this study was to assess effects of non-digestible carbohydrates on the pathobiology of mucosal injury after chemotherapy. Rats bearing colon tumor (n=6/diet) were fed diets including 8% (w/w) as either cellulose, inulin, fructo-oligosaccharide (OligoF), 50:50 (w/w) inulin and oligoF...

Resistance and Membrane Fluidity of Endospores of Clostridium spp. During Pressure-Assisted Thermal Processing in the Presence of Antimicrobials
DownloadSpring 2012
Endospores of Clostridium spp. pose an economic threat to the food industry and put consumers at risk of foodborne illness. An increase in consumer demand for minimally-processed, ready-to-eat products has driven research to examine ways to mitigate current thermal processing severity used to...

The evaluation of toxic effects induced by exposure of mammals to oil sands process-affected water and its organic fraction
DownloadSpring 2018
Oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) produced by the surface-mining oil sands industry in Alberta, has been shown to be toxic to a variety of organisms. Much of this toxicity has been attributed to the dissolved organic compounds, primarily naphthenic acids (NAs). Under a no-release practice,...

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....

Fall 2016
“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...
