The Influence of Gender and Food Insecurity on the Eating Practices of Poor, Pregnant Women in Dhaka, Bangladesh
DownloadSpring 2012
The purpose of this study was to investigate the interaction between rising levels of food insecurity in the urban setting and the existing gender structures and their impact on eating practices while pregnant. Using a focused-ethnography with a feminist approach in an urban slum in Dhaka,...

Simultaneous measurement of protein and energy metabolism and application to determine lysine requirements in sows
DownloadSpring 2011
Simultaneous measurements of energy and protein metabolism can provide valuable information about their interactions. Dietary lysine is limiting in typical feedstuffs fed to swine and, therefore, limits protein synthesis. Current recommendations for dietary amino acid and energy intakes may not...

Responses to n-3 fatty acid (LCPUFA) supplementation of gestating gilts, and lactating and weaned sows
Download2012
Smit, M. N., Patterson, Jennifer L., Spencer, Joel D., Dixon, Walter T., Dyck, Michael K., Foxcroft, George R., Cameron, Ashley C., Webel, Stephen K.
Feeding n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) to gilts or sows has shown different responses to litter growth, pre-weaning mortality and subsequent reproductive performance of the sow. Two hypotheses were tested: (1) that feeding a marine oil-based supplement rich in protected n-3...

Proanthocyanidins and Glucose Homeostasis: An Analysis of Bioavailability and Mechanisms in Rats
DownloadFall 2015
Proanthocyanidins (PAC) belong to a highly consumed class of flavonoids and their consumption has been linked to beneficial effects on glycemic control in type 2 diabetes. However, limited gastrointestinal absorption occurs due to the structure complexity of polymeric PAC and the mechanisms by...

Nutritional Characterization of Wheat Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles in Grower-Finisher Pigs
DownloadFall 2011
Co-product feedstuffs, if properly characterized nutritionally, are an important component to maintain the feed competitiveness of the pork industry. Hence, nutrient digestibility of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) was measured using grower-finisher pigs. In Exp. 1, two methods were...

Novel properties of the multifaceted drug phenelzine and its metabolite β-phenylethylidenehydrazine
DownloadFall 2015
Phenelzine is a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor that has been used for the treatment of depression and anxiety disorders since the 1960s. In recent years, there has been renewed interest in this drug following reports of its neuroprotective properties in animal models of cerebral ischemia,...
