Quality of Life, Exercise Behaviour and Baseline Dietary Intake of Women Undergoing Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in the DHA WIN Randomized Controlled Trial
DownloadSpring 2024
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in Canada. It is estimated that one in eight Canadian women will be diagnosed with the disease in their lifetime. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is often prescribed to improve surgical resection outcomes and reduce micrometastases. Achieving a pathological...

Impact of protein, starch, and dietary fiber on functionality and protein matrix of faba bean and pea Texturized Vegetable Protein (TVP)
DownloadSpring 2024
Low moisture extrusion is a complex scalable technology that uses heat, pressure and shear to texturize plant proteins into extrudates called texturized vegetable proteins (TVP) used in the development of meat analogue products. Increasing interest in meat analogues and the rise of new sources of...

Investigation of Causal Mutations in Livestock and Companion Animals Using Whole-Genome Sequencing (WGS) and Bioinformatics
DownloadSpring 2024
In this thesis project, three studies were conducted, aimed at identifying the causal variants responsible for phenotypic/genotypic sex discordance in cattle, copper toxicosis in Dalmatian dogs, and low fertility/infertility in cattle. In all three studies, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and...

Understanding the wettability of different surfaces for the fractionation of complex lipid mixtures using supercritical carbon dioxide
DownloadSpring 2024
Santos Hernandez, Eileen Vanessa
Supercritical fluid fractionation of complex lipid mixtures has emerged as a green alternative for conventional methods. Packed columns have been used to fractionate diverse lipid mixtures using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) under different conditions. However, there is a lack of...
