Construction And Validation Of A Bovine Innate Immune Microarray, L Donaldson, T Vuocolo, C Gray, Y Strandberg, Et Al

Peninsula Medical School

involved in the responses of cattle to disease challenges. This knowledge may allow the development of strategies that exploit these genes to enhance resistance to disease in an individual or animal population. Results The Bovine Innate Immune Microarray developed in this study consists of 1480 characterised genes identified by literature searches, 31 positive and negative control elements and 5376 cDNAs derived from subtracted and normalised libraries. The cDNA libraries were produced from 'challenged' bovine epithelial and leukocyte cells. The microarray was found to have a limit of detection of 1 pg/µg of total RNA and a mean slide-to-slide correlation co-efficient …

Fly Ash As A Soil Amendment In The Northern Red River Valley, Amy Decker

Undergraduate Theses and Senior Projects

Combustion of coal occurs worldwide to produce energy for numerous residential and industrial processes. During coal combustion, byproducts including fly ash, bottom ash and slag are formed (Lafarge, 2004). By standard regulations, power plants in the United States and many other countries must effectively capture and dispose of these byproducts. Over 118 million tons of combustion byproducts are produced and captured each year in the United States alone. Disposal of this extraordinary amount of waste is difficult and costly. Finding ways to turn this waste into a resource has been necessary, and at times, profitable.

The past fifty years has …

The Influence Of Ethics And Social Responsibility On Grocery Shopping Behaviour In The Uk, Juliet Emma Memery

Plymouth Business School Theses

Consumption as an aspect of most people's lives in affluent societies is widely acknowledged as having become increasingly important (Newholm, 2005). We consume more, and consume more often, than previous generations (Durning, 1992) meaning the actions we make and the decisions we take have greater impact than ever before on the world we inhabit. For many their involvement with consumption goes beyond the act of purchase (Oilman, 1998) to include complex ethical dimensions. The relationship between ethics and social responsibility (E&SR) and consumption choices has received growing attention over recent years, resulting in the topic of 'sustainable consumption' becoming a …

International Freight Transport Multimodal Development In Developing Countries: The Case Of Bangladesh, Dewan Mohammad Zahurul Islam

Plymouth Business School Theses

An efficient transport system is essential for an efficient supply chain to facilitate international trade. To utilise all cheaper resources, such as labour in Bangladesh, companies receive supplies from one coxintry (e.g. in Hong Kong), produce the products in another country, and sell them in other countries (e.g. European countries). Thus the production and consumption has turned into a global activity with transport filling the gaps among them. To perform the transport function a carrier may require the use of more than one mode, the so-called multimodal transport. Multimodal transport, an integrated systems approach, can be defined as the most …
