The role of novel red yeast rice formulation to modulate lipid metabolism and reduce dyslipidemia and vascular disease in the JCR:LA-cp rat
DownloadSpring 2013
Liver derived low-density lipoprotein and intestinal derived chylomicron remnant are contributors to dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease (CVD). In clinical practice, the most common medication to reduce fasting LDL-cholesterol is statins. However, for many individuals prescribed statins, a...

The role of starch and fiber composition on nutrient flow, site and extent of nutrient digestion, and microbial profiles in pigs
DownloadSpring 2016
Starch is the main energy substrate for monogastrics, including swine. Physico- chemical properties of starch and the cereal grain matrix can change the kinetics of digestion. Objectives of this thesis were to enhance the understanding of how the physico-chemical properties of purified starch and...

Newell, Heather Marlene Marnie
Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequently diagnosed and the second leading cause of cancer related death in Canadian women. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) that has shown efficacy in reducing BC cell growth, however its’ role in prevention of BC...

The Sensitivity of Canadian Wheat Genotypes to the Host-Selective Toxins Produced by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis
DownloadFall 2014
Tan spot is a foliar disease of wheat caused by the fungus Pyrenophora tritici–repentis. Disease development is associated with the production of three host-selective toxins (Ptr ToxA, Ptr ToxB, and Ptr ToxC) that serve as fungal pathogenicity factors. The aim of this study was to investigate...
