Fall 2013
The inactivation fluence of a target wastewater plant in Alberta, Canada was determined in the laboratory and was found to be close to that reported by the target wastewater plant. The effect of inactivation fluence, effective reactivation fluence, temperature, and river water on the percent...

Bacterial conjugation is the process of plasmid DNA transfer from a donor cell to a recipient cell. This process is mediated in F-like plasmids by proteins expressed by the tra operon. The relaxosome forms at oriT (origin of transfer), where the nicking and unwinding of a single-stranded copy of...

Synthesis, characterization, and antibacterial properties of a hydroxyapatite adhesive block copolymer
Download2014-01-01
Zhang, Qiang, Serpe, Michael J.
A novel diblock copolymer composed of bisphosphonate and pyridine oligomers has been prepared by reversible addition–fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Ag ion was introduced into the polymer via its coordination with the pyridine groups, followed by a reduction process to obtain Ag...

Targeted Application of Dietary Fibers for Selective Modulation of the Gut Microbiota and Improved Human Health
DownloadFall 2020
Obesity and associated comorbidities have reached epidemic proportions worldwide. Observational studies provide consistent evidence that plant-based diets rich in dietary fibers (DFs) reduce chronic disease risk. Mechanistic studies have established processes by which DFs improve health, with one...

Taxonomic assessment of rumen microbiota using total RNA and targeted amplicon sequencing approaches
Download2016
Janssen, Peter H., Li, Fuyong, Sun, Xu, Cox, Faith, Guan, Leluo, Henderson, Gemma
Taxonomic characterization of active gastrointestinal microbiota is essential to detect shifts in microbial communities and functions under various conditions. This study aimed to identify and quantify potentially active rumen microbiota using total RNA sequencing and to compare the outcomes of...

The ecology of boreal forest floor microbial communities in relation to environmental factors
DownloadFall 2012
Soil microbial communities in boreal forests are structured by complex interactions among many factors operating simultaneously on large and small spatial scales. Of particular note in the boreal mixedwood, the microbial communities under trembling aspen and white spruce forest floors are...

The intestinal microbiota plays a role in Salmonella-induced colitis independent of pathogen colonization
Download2011
Antunes, L. Caetano M., Gill, Navkiran, Russell, Shannon L., Finlay, B. Brett, Ferreira, Rosana B., Croxen, Matthew A., Willing, Benjamin P.
The intestinal microbiota is composed of hundreds of species of bacteria, fungi and protozoa and is critical for numerous biological processes, such as nutrient acquisition, vitamin production, and colonization resistance against bacterial pathogens. We studied the role of the intestinal...

The Occurrence of Residual Biological and Chemical Hazards in Recovered Struvite from Blackwater
DownloadFall 2018
Phosphorus is an essential element in several industries such as agriculture and a requirement for growth. Dwindling phosphate rock sources thus requires the security of new phosphorus sources to maintain future populations. On the other hand, wastewater contains a considerable amount of...
