Enrichment of Phospholipids by Enzymatic Hydrolysis and Membrane Filtration of Whey Protein Phospholipid Concentrate
(2022)Whey protein phospholipid concentrate (WPPC) contains high amounts of phospholipids (PL) (16.4 ± 3.6 % PL as % lipid) but there is interest in further enriching the PL content for nutritional and functional applications. ... -
Ixodes scapularis density in US temperate forests shaped by deer, earthworms, and other disparate factors at two scales
(Ecosphere, 2021)Forest and wildlife management can help regulate the risk of human exposure to tick-borne pathogens by influencing the population density of host-seeking ticks and the pathogen infection prevalence in tick populations. ... -
Determination and Validation of D-Values for Listeria monocytogenes and Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli in Cheesemilk
(Journal of Dairy Science, 2021)Certain cheeses can be legally produced in the U.S. using raw milk, but must be aged for at least 60 days to reduce pathogen risks. However, some varieties, even when aged for 60 days, have been shown to support growth ... -
A Study of Various Chemical Pre-treatments to Fractionate Lipids from Whey Protein Phospholipid Concentrate
(Journal of Dairy Science, 2021)Dairy-derived lipids such as phospholipids (PL) have been gaining interest due to their functional and nutritional properties. Our research goal was to develop a separation process (non-solvent based) to produce an enriched ... -
Do Amazon Fulfillment Centers Help or Harm Local Economies?
(2020-05)In this paper, I investigate the Amazon Corporation’s impact on the economic well-being of the communities that house its warehouses, or “Fulfillment Centers.” A review of the literature surrounding Amazon’s economic impact ... -
Defining the molecular determinants required for RNA binding functions of the Bicaudal-C (Bicc1) translational repressor protein
(2020-05)Bicaudal-C (Bicc1) is an RNA binding protein that functions as translational repressor in all animal species. Its repression activities are required for a multitude of biological processes such as guiding the earliest steps ... -
The Prevalence of Clostridium difficile in the Wisconsin Area and the Role of Dietary Fiber on Colonization
(2020-05)Clostridium difficile is an opportunistic pathogen. Since antibiotics alter a human’s microbiota, hospitalized patients are more likely to become infected with C. difficile. Studies have shown that a high-fiber diet can ... -
Improving the Production of Terpenes by Recombination of 1-Deoxy-D-Xylulose 5-Ph
(2020-05)None provided -
α7-Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Signaling in Cardiac Regeneration
(2020-05)Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. Loss of heart regenerative capacity in adult mammals is a principle reason why adults fail to recover from heart diseases. In contrast, neonatal mammals possess ... -
GBT440 increases hematocrit and improves biventricular function in Berkeley sickle cell disease mice
(2020-05)Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder affecting millions of people in which red blood cells become sickled and lyse easily driven by polymerization of hemoglobin. Chronically, SCD causes anemia and ... -
Novel insight into the patterns of in vitro short abortive RNA release by Escherichia coli RNA polymerase
(2020-05)E. coli RNA polymerase (RNAP) catalyzes prokaryotic transcription with the σ70 specificity factor, which directs the binding of RNAP to promoter DNA. RNAP operates on the promoter to form an open complex. In transcription ... -
Investigation of the Genome-Wide Distribution of Histone Variant H3.3
(2020-05)Epigenetic regulation via loci-specific deposition of variant histone proteins is important for genome stability and regulation of gene expression. Replication-independent histone variant H3.3 has been implicated in ... -
Characterization of Listeria monocytogenes isolates from lactating dairy cows in a Wisconsin farm: antibiotic resistance, mammalian cell infection, and impacts on the fecal microbiota
(Journal of Dairy Science, 2021)Listeria monocytogenes is an invasive foodborne pathogen that is ubiquitously present in the dairy farm environment. Although cattle are a reservoir of L. monocytogenes, most adult animals do not exhibit clinical symptoms, ... -
Flux intensity and diurnal variability of soil N2O emissions in a highly fertilized cropping system (Data set and statistical analysis script)
(2019-10-28)Statistical analysis and data set used in the publication of the journal article: 'Measuring frequently during peak soil N2O emissions is more important than choosing the time of day to sample'. Francis Clar, J. and Anex, ... -
The theory of electrolytes. I. Freezing point depression and related phenomena (Translation)
(2019-07-18)An English translation of "Zur Theorie der Elektrolyte. I. Gefrierpunktserniedrigung und verwandte Erscheinungen", written by Peter Debye and Erich Hückel and published in 1923 in the journal Physikalische Zeitschrift. ... -
The role of social media in polarization of viewpoints towards climate change
(2018-06-15)The purpose of this research was to determine the role that social network sites play in the polarizing of viewpoints regarding climate change. To measure this, I surveyed participants about their initial perceptions of ... -
Phenylacetic acid degradation regulation in Acromyrmex ant-associated and non-ant associated Pseudonocardia strains in the context of pathogen co-cultivation
(2018-06-15)The Acromyrmex ant agriculture system is a highly evolved symbiosis that involves four organisms; the Attine ants, the fungal cultivars, the bacterium Pseudonocardia, and the fungal pathogen Escovopsis. The bacterium ... -
The Potential Negative Effects of FGF-23 peptide Vaccination on the Hatchability of Fertilized Eggs
(2018-06-12)In Ren et al. (2018), fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) peptide vaccination increased eggshell quality of Single Comb White Leghorn laying hens. Increasing eggshell strength may have considerable benefits for egg ...
