Harmful Algal Blooms: Dominance In Lakes And Risk For Cyanotoxin Exposure In Food Crops, Austin D. Bartos
Harmful Algal Blooms: Dominance In Lakes And Risk For Cyanotoxin Exposure In Food Crops, Austin D. Bartos
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Climate change and human activities are promoting the dominance of a photosynthetic family of aquatic bacteria, cyanobacteria. Blooms of cyanobacteria are not only a visual nuisance but can produce a variety of cyanotoxins than can harm the liver, skin, and nervous system of animals and humans. We analyzed lakes in the contiguous United States and found that between 2007 and 2012, the number of lakes that produced measurable quantities of cyanotoxins increased from 33% to 45%. Nitrogen and phosphorus pollution were the main drivers of cyanobacteria blooms and toxin production between these years. Many of these lakes and reservoirs are …

Investigation Of Anti-Inflammatory And Antioxidants Properties Of Phenolic Compounds From Inonotus Obliquus Using Different Extraction Methods, Weaam A.A. Alhallaf
Investigation Of Anti-Inflammatory And Antioxidants Properties Of Phenolic Compounds From Inonotus Obliquus Using Different Extraction Methods, Weaam A.A. Alhallaf
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Inonotus obliquus, commonly known as Chaga, is a fungal pathogen of birch trees, known to synthesize a range of phenolic compounds with remarkable health benefits. These presumed medicinal properties have generated increased interest in Chaga consumption. Prior research has demonstrated the diverse chemical composition of Chaga sourced from a variety of geographical locations. However, to our knowledge, there is currently no available literature regarding the extraction of bioactive compounds from Chaga grown in the United States. Additionally, the effect of the extraction method on the antioxidant and anti-inflammation properties specifically, has yet to be validated. Therefore, the present study was …
Flourishing Gardens In Peoples Lives, Ramiro Rocha
Flourishing Gardens In Peoples Lives, Ramiro Rocha
Capstone Projects and Master's Theses
Mesa Verde Gardens has been a great asset in the Watsonville and Pajaro area by providing a unique way for people to live healthier lives. The community gardens have given people an opportunity to reach new standards for themselves. The organic produce being grown out of the seven different gardens in the area has accommodated the gardeners with delicious food for the entire season. In order to grow Mesa verde Gardens, an outreach project was conducted to allow people to familiarize with all seven gardens. These events included fundraisers, door to door outreach, and participation in community gatherings like festivals. …
Research Progress In Detection Of Estrogen Residues In Food By Biological Probes Based On Specific Molecular Recognition, Chen Ting-Ting, Wang Xin, Tao Xiao-Qi
Research Progress In Detection Of Estrogen Residues In Food By Biological Probes Based On Specific Molecular Recognition, Chen Ting-Ting, Wang Xin, Tao Xiao-Qi
Food and Machinery
In this study, the main detection methods based on specific molecular recognition of biological probes in recent years are reviewed, including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, lateral flow immunoassay and electrochemical biosensor. The advantages and disadvantages of each method are analyzed.

A Study Of Consumer Perception Of Antibiotic Resistance And Antibiotic Use In Ireland, Andrea Todea
A Study Of Consumer Perception Of Antibiotic Resistance And Antibiotic Use In Ireland, Andrea Todea
Theses
The purpose of this study was to assess the knowledge of Irish consumers regarding antibiotic use in Ireland. Data was obtained on antibiotic use, frequency, associated source and general awareness regarding antibiotics and antibiotic resistance. A cross-sectional survey was designed to analyse consumer’s perception and knowledge of antibiotic and antibiotic resistance. A total of 763 completed questionnaires were collected. The questionnaire was targeted for general public, based in Ireland. Fifty-seven percent of respondents are trying to completely avoid antibiotics, unless absolutely necessary. Half of respondents (50%) took antibiotics in the last 12 months. The majority of respondents obtained antibiotics through …
Assessing The Food Safety Culture Of A Dairy Processing Facility In Ireland, Emer Marie Hughes
Assessing The Food Safety Culture Of A Dairy Processing Facility In Ireland, Emer Marie Hughes
Theses
ood safety culture has become a prominent topic, with food safety management systems (FSMS), food safety regulations, training and auditing being challenged due to the reoccurrence of foodborne outbreaks. Due to its link with food safety performance, food organisations must have the ability to accurately measure their food safety culture to ensure it is an integral part of the company’s culture. The food safety culture of a dairy processing facility in Ireland was measured quantitatively using a questionnaire which was an adaptation of a food safety climate self-assessment tool. The questionnaire assessed the human dimension of food safety culture such …
