Fall 2016
“Blown-pack” spoilage of beef by psychrotrophic Clostridium spp. occurs sporadically and resistance of the endospores to most interventions makes them very difficult to control. Current interventions used to control spoilage and pathogenic bacteria, such as acid washes and heat treatments, do...

Spring 2023
The fluid mechanics literature suggests that the ability to manipulate the very-large-scale motions (VLSMs) that exist within turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) would provide influence over the unwanted drag forces, noise, and vibrations associated with these flows. The ability to suppress these...

Willing, Benjamin P., Finlay, B. Brett , Thanachayanont, Teerawat, Croxen, Matthew, Vacharaksa, Anjalee
Host resistance to bacterial infections is thought to be dictated by host genetic factors. Infections by the natural murine enteric pathogen Citrobacter rodentium (used as a model of human enteropathogenic and enterohaemorrhagic E. coli infections) vary between mice strains, from mild...

Campylobacter jejuni colonization is associated with a dysbiosis in the cecal microbiota of mice in the absence of prominent inflammation
Download2013
Selinger, L. Brent, Inglis, G. Douglas, Uwiera, Richard R. E., Lone, Abdul, Xu, Yong
Background Campylobacter jejuni causes enterocolitis in humans, but does not incite disease in asymptomatic carrier animals. To survive in the intestine, C. jejuni must successfully compete with the microbiota and overcome the host immune defense. Campylobacter jejuni colonization success varies...

Bording-Jorgensen, M. , O'keefe, S. , Mason, A., Warren, K., Patterson J., Jovel, J., Wong, G., Wang, W.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common cause of non-traumatic neurologic disability with high incidence in many developed countries. Although the etiology of the disease remains elusive, it is thought to entail genetic and environmental causes, and microbial pathogens have also been envisioned as...

Chemically defined diet alters the protective properties of fructo-oligosaccharides and isomalto-oligosaccharides in HLA-B27 transgenic rats
Download2014
Koleva, Petya, Ketabi, Ali, Dieleman, Levinus A., Gänzle, Michael G., Valcheva, Rosica
Non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDO) were shown to reduce inflammation in experimental colitis, but it remains unclear whether microbiota changes mediate their colitis-modulating effects. This study assessed intestinal microbiota and intestinal inflammation after feeding chemically defined...

Development of an Experimental Apparatus for Studying the Effects of Acoustic Excitation on Viscosity
DownloadFall 2012
An experimental apparatus was developed capable of measuring changes in fluid viscosity occurring due to acoustic stimulation. Controls allowed measurements at simulated oil sand reservoir pressures and temperatures with near real-time data visualization. Calibration was performed...

Development of ruminal and fecal microbiomes are affected by weaning but not weaning strategy in dairy calves
Download2016
Khafipour, Ehsan, Steele, Michael A., Meale, Sarah J., Plaizier, Jan C., Li, Shucong, Derakhshani, Hooman, Azevedo, Paula
The nature of weaning, considered the most stressful and significant transition experienced by dairy calves, influences the ability of a calf to adapt to the dramatic dietary shift, and thus, can influence the severity of production losses through the weaning transition. However, the effects of...

Diet and environment shape fecal bacterial microbiota composition and enteric pathogen load of grizzly bears
Download2011-01-01
Northrup, Joseph M., Cristescu, Bogdan, Schwab, Clarissa, Stenhouse, Gordon B., Gänzle, Michael G.
Background Diet and environment impact the composition of mammalian intestinal microbiota; dietary or health disturbances trigger alterations in intestinal microbiota composition and render the host susceptible to enteric pathogens. To date no long term monitoring data exist on the fecal...
