Carbon and Nitrogen Mineralization and Microbial Succession in Oil Sands Reclamation Soils Amended with Pyrogenic Carbon
Download2014-12-31
Mackenzie, M.D., Lanoil, B., Hofstetter, S., Hatam, I.
Land reclamation of oil sands disturbed boreal forests in Alberta is a challenging task facing companies with surface mine leases. The government requires reclamation to equivalent land capability, which is a vague statement at best. Agronomic theories and methodologies have been applied in the...

Characterization of Mahewu, a Traditional Fermented Cereal Beverage from Zimbabwe, as a Source of Functional Lactobacilli
DownloadSpring 2022
Mahewu is a non-alcoholic fermented maize and finger millet malt beverage produced in Zimbabwe. Africa has a rich tradition of cereal fermentations to produce diverse products including baked goods, non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages with live microbiota and the widespread use of fermented...

Characterization of novel envelope proteins and their relationship with the Cpx response and stress resistance in Escherichia coli
DownloadFall 2022
Stress is a major factor every organism needs to mitigate to survive. Environmental factors such as oxygen content, temperature, and alkalinity can all induce stress and prevent life from progressing. For Escherichia coli and other members of the mammalian gastrointestinal tract they need to...

Fall 2012
Provided that infectious prions (PrPTSE) are inactivated, composting of specified risk material (SRM) may be a viable alternative to rendering and land filling. The overall objective of this research was to utilize laboratory-scale composters to assess the degradation of SRM and PrPTSE during...

Crystallization and preliminary diffraction studies of TraF, a component of the Escherichia coli type IV secretory system
Download2004
Manchak, J., Hayakawa, K., Audette, G.F., Holland, S.J., Frost, L.S., Hazes, B.
TraF, a component of the Escherichia coli type IV secretory system, has been crystallized and preliminary X-ray diffraction data have been collected. TraF is a 26 kDa protein encoded by the E. coli F plasmid and is required for conjugative plasmid transfer and the formation of sex pili. The...

Berlyn, M.K., Plunkett, G., Wishart, D.S., Nori, H., Riley, M., Rudd, K.E., Glasner, J.D., Arnaud, M.B., Abe, T., Thomson, N.R., Wanner, B.L., Pernas, N.T., Blattner, F.R., Serres, M.H., Thomas, G.H., Horiuchi, T., Kosuge, T., Keseler, I.M., Chaudhuri, R.R.
The goal of this group project has been to coordinate and bring up-to-date information on all genes of Escherichia coli K-12. Annotation of the genome of an organism entails identification of genes, the boundaries of genes in terms of precise start and end sites, and description of the gene...

Exploiting synergies of sourdough and antifungal organic acids to delay fungal spoilage of bread
Download2018-01-01
Quattrini, Mattia, Liang, Nuanyi, Fortina, Maria Grazia, Xiang, Sheng, Curtis, Jonathan M., Gänzle, Michael G.
Fungal spoilage of bread remains an unsolved issue in bread making. This work aims to identify alternative strategies to conventional preservatives in order to prevent or delay fungal spoilage of bread. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of bacterial metabolites and chemical preservatives...

Food fermentations for improved digestibility of plant foods - an essential ex situ digestion step in agricultural societies?
Download2021-01-05
The fermentation of plant foods detoxifies and eliminates compounds that are inherently present in grains and legumes and have antinutritive properties, including cyanogenic glycosides, vicine and convicine, phytate, phenolic compounds, immune-reactive proteins and fermentable oligosaccharides,...
