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...

Drug-disease interaction: effect of inflammation on the pharmacological response to calcium channel blockers
DownloadFall 2010
The present research is focused on the topic of inflammation-drug interaction. Inflammation complicates many human diseases and conditions ranging from obesity to cancer. Therefore, the study of the effect of inflammation on drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics is pivotal. First, we tested...

Effect of Antimicrobial Exposure on Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) Colonization of the Infant Gut Microbiota in the Canadian Healthy Infant Longitudinal Development (CHILD) Birth Cohort
DownloadSpring 2020
Introduction: Antimicrobial exposure in early life has been associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis and development of allergic diseases in childhood. In adults and older children, C. difficile is the major pathogen responsible for antibiotic-induced diarrhea but the effect of colonization with...
