Application of intravaginal lactic acid bacteria to lower uterine infections and improve reproductive performance of postpartum dairy cows
DownloadSpring 2015
Transition dairy cows are susceptible to uterine infections due to the compromised immunity around calving and substantial bacterial contamination in the uterus immediately after calving. Cows with uterine infections are at higher odds of developing other periparturient diseases, resulting in...

Enterococcus faecalis 710C is a lactic acid bacterium that produces two bacterocins, ent7A and ent7B. Both ent7A and ent7B have strong activity against gram-positive food pathogens including Listeria spp., Clostridium spp., vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and methicillin-resistant...

Contamination by lactic acid bacteria is a major source of inefficiency in the bioethanol industry. Contaminated fermentations exhibit lowered ethanol yields and contamination events often require shutdown of the entire process for cleaning and decontamination. The first objective of this study...

Spring 2011
Several obstacles to widespread use of bacteriocins in food have been identified, including lack of specific, rapid quantitation methods, and little data on their efficacy in food systems. The first objective of this study was to develop a specific, rapid quantitation method for bacteriocins...

The use of crude cell extracts of lactic acid bacteria optimized for beta-galactosidase activity to form galactooligosaccharides with lactose, mannose, fucose, and N-acetylglucosamine
DownloadFall 2009
Several lactic acid bacteria contain β-galactosidases. Beta galactosidases catalyze lactose hydrolysis and transfer acceptor sugars onto galactose, producing galactooligosaccharides. The aim of this work was to exploit β-galactosidases of lactic acid bacteria as crude cell extracts to produce...

Using Intravaginal Probiotics to Lower the Incidence of Uterine Infections and Improve Reproductive Performance and Productivity of Dairy Cows in Dairy Farms in Alberta
DownloadFall 2018
Uterine infections are the number one reason for culling of cows in Canada and elsewhere because are associated with high incidence of infertility. Five hundred and twenty-six dairy cows (426 Holstein and 100 Jersey cows) from 4 dairy farms in Alberta (three farms had Holstein dairy cows and one...
