Chronic Fatigue Mechanisms in Autoimmune Diseases: Lessons from Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Systemic Sclerosis
DownloadFall 2023
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease affecting the body's connective tissues, resulting in progressive fibrosis and vasculopathy. In some cases, individuals with SSc may also develop primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), another autoimmune disease characterized by damage to their...

When carbon resources are becoming limited there is a great interest to use renewable resources and replace biomass as a feed stock for different industries. It is necessary to investigate methods that isolate biomass resources and convert it into value added materials safely, efficiently, and...

Inactivation of Salmonella spp. in wheat flour by 395 nm pulsed light emitting diode (LED) treatment and the related functional and structural changes of gluten
Download2020-01-01
Du, Lihui, Prasad, Amritha Jaya, Gänzle, Michael G., Roopesh, M.S.
Salmonella spp. is one of the top foodborne pathogens associated with low-moisture foods and they exhibit significant resistance to conventional thermal treatments. UV light pulses emitted from light emitting diode (LED) has shown antimicrobial potential in high-moisture foods and water. However,...

TRIA-Net: 10 years of collaborative research on turning risk into action for the mountain pine beetle epidemic
Download2019-01-01
James, Patrick M.A., Huber, Dezene P.W.
Forest insects are showing increasing intensity of outbreaks and expanded ranges, and this has become a major challenge for forest managers. An understanding of these systems often depends upon detailed examination of complex interactions involving multiple organisms. In 2013, a team of...

The contribution of genetics and genomics to understanding the ecology of the mountain pine beetle system
Download2019-01-01
Cullingham, Catherine I., Janes, Jasmine K., Hamelin, Richard C., James, Patrick M.A., Murray, Brent W., Sperling, Felix A.H.
Environmental change is altering forest insect dynamics worldwide. As these systems change, they pose significant ecological, social, and economic risk through, for example, the loss of valuable habitat, green space, and timber. Our understanding of such systems is often limited by the complexity...

Understory protection is a harvesting approach that seeks to protect understory conifers during hardwood harvesting in mixedwood forests. While understory protection harvesting has been implemented for over a decade in Alberta, there has been no study of its ecological value to birds. We surveyed...

Influence of variable retention and deadwood characteristics on saproxylic beetles in boreal white spruce stands
DownloadSpring 2016
Retention forestry aims to maintain a significant level of continuity in forest structure, composition and complexity so as to support conservation and recovery of biodiversity and ecological function on managed landscapes; however, the amount and distribution of retention that best meets...

Conversion of cycloalk-2-enones into 2-methylcycloalkane-1,3-diones - Assessment of various Tamao-Fleming procedures and mechanistic insight into the use of the Me3SiMe2Si unit.
Download2016-01-01
Yu, Goujun, Clive, Derrick L. J.
Conjugate addition of Me3SiMe2SiLi to cycloalk-2-en-1-ones, ketalization, Tamao-Fleming oxidation (Bu4NF, then H2O2, KHCO3), TPAP oxidation and acid hydrolysis generates 2-methyl cycloalkane-1,3-diones. Ketalization is needed in order to prevent addition of Me3Si- to the carbonyl. The...

The extent of glycation and conformational changes of horse myoglobin (Mb) upon glycation with N-acetyl-glucosamine (GlcNAc), glucose (Glc) and glucosamine (GlcN) were investigated. Among tested sugars, the rate of glycation with GlcN was the most rapid as shown by MALDI and ESI mass...
