Design Of An Audio-Visual Display For Cross-Modal Experimentation, Gail Jeanne Myers
Design Of An Audio-Visual Display For Cross-Modal Experimentation, Gail Jeanne Myers
Electrical and Computer Engineering
The present paper shows the characteristics of a hardware/software display capable of presenting, at different spatial locations, multiple audio-visual stimuli in real-time. The system has been developed to provide a tool in neuroscience in event-related potential (ERP) studies, with presentation delays of less than one millisecond. The high time precision achieved makes it possible to overcome problems from previously used technologies in order to create a realistic environment of cross-modal stimulation. The design presented here has been built using a modular approach, which makes the system flexible and adaptable to different experiments or studies. The capability of presenting different stimuli …

Analysis Of Deoxynivalenol And Deoxynivalenol-3-Glucoside In Wheat, Kimberly Burgess
Analysis Of Deoxynivalenol And Deoxynivalenol-3-Glucoside In Wheat, Kimberly Burgess
Food Safety
Deoxynivalenol (DON), a mycotoxin produced in cereal grains infected by Fusarium Head Blight produced by Fusarium graminearium and Deoxynivalenol-3-β-D-glucopyranoside (DON-3G), were studied during processing using LC-MS-MS and GC. DON reduced significantly (P<0.05) 61.8% during milling into flour. Therefore, DON was concentrated mostly in the bran and germ. DON increased 40.8% during the fermentation stage of baking. DON increased in dough more than flour and mixed dough. Milling reduced by 23.7% but fermentation did not. But bread was significantly lower in DON-3G at 0.15 ppm than flour and dough at 0.31 ppm. The baking increased DON and decreased DON-3G showing a difference in stability of the mycotoxins during processing. Enzyme hydrolysis on DON using α-amylase, cellulase, protease, and xylanase, showed a significant increase with cellulase (20.8%), protease (11.4%), and xylanase (35.6%) compared to wheat composite. DON may be bound to the cell wall or protein component of the kernel.
Developmental Changes In Fat Metabolism Of Tobacco Hornworm, Manduca Sexta, Gita Thapa
Developmental Changes In Fat Metabolism Of Tobacco Hornworm, Manduca Sexta, Gita Thapa
Environmental and Conservation Sciences
Insects fed high carbohydrate diets have increased fat storage, and excess fat storage in insects may have fitness costs. M. sexta larvae reared on 5.6% fat diet had lower body mass and growth rate compared to those on 3.4% fat or 0.4% fat diets. Fifth instar caterpillars fed high-fat diet ate less food but had higher approximate digestibility than the low-fat diet fed caterpillars. Analysis of fat body and fecal pellet lipid content showed high-fat diet fed caterpillars stored and excreted more lipids than low-fat diet fed caterpillars. To test the hypothesis that increased dietary fat alters lipid transport, we …
Does Consumption Of Beef From Cattle Administered Growth-Enhancing Technology Trigger Early Estrus In Pre-Pubertal Gilts?, Giovana Maranho Anderson
Does Consumption Of Beef From Cattle Administered Growth-Enhancing Technology Trigger Early Estrus In Pre-Pubertal Gilts?, Giovana Maranho Anderson
Food Safety
The objective was to determine if pre-pubertal gilts supplemented ground beef obtained from steers implanted with growth enhancing technology caused precocious puberty. Twenty-four gilts were selected for the same birth date from common parentage. Upon reaching 61 days of age, daily delivery of the low-estrogenicity base diet was supplemented with: 114 g beef natural patty (NAT), 114 g beef patty from steers that had received growth promoting implants (100 mg trenbolone acetate and 14 mg estradiol benzoate; IMP), 198 g tofu patty (TOFU), or the negative control (base diet only; CON). The estradiol equivalents (ng/kg) of the TOFU were approximately …
Occurrence Of Salmonella And Listeria Monocytogenes In Ready To Eat Meats In The United States: 2000-2010, Anthony Wilfred Ntaate
Occurrence Of Salmonella And Listeria Monocytogenes In Ready To Eat Meats In The United States: 2000-2010, Anthony Wilfred Ntaate
Food Safety
The purpose of this review is to characterize the occurrence of Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes in ready to eat (RTE) meats in the United States between the years 2000-2010. Data were obtained from the CDC foodborne outbreak online database, morbidity and mortality weekly reports, summary of notifiable diseases and the foodborne outbreaks page. Additional information was obtained from peer reviewed journals. RTE roast pork, turkey deli meat, and Italian type salami meats were the vehicles in the Salmonella outbreaks reported. Half of the eight outbreaks reviewed were multistate in nature affecting many states and the rest were sporadic. The Salmonella …
Phosphate Removal And Recovery Using Iron Nanoparticles And Iron Cross-Linked Biopolymer, Talal Bakheet Almeelbi
Phosphate Removal And Recovery Using Iron Nanoparticles And Iron Cross-Linked Biopolymer, Talal Bakheet Almeelbi
Environmental and Conservation Sciences
Nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) particles and iron cross-linked alginate (FCA) beads were successfully used for the first time for phosphate removal and recovery. NZVI was successfully used for phosphate removal and recovery. Batch studies indicated a removal of ~96 to 100% phosphate in 30 min (1, 5, and 10 mg PO43--P/L with 400 mg NZVI/L). Phosphate removal efficiency by NZVI was 13.9 times higher compared to Microscale ZVI (MZVI) particles. The successful rapid removal of phosphate by NZVI from aqueous solution is expected to have great ramification for cleaning up nutrient rich waters. The presence of sulfate, nitrate, and humic …
Development And Scale Up Of Aqueous Surfactant-Assisted Extraction Of Canola Oil For Use As Biodiesel Feedstock, Nattapong Tuntiwiwattanapun
Development And Scale Up Of Aqueous Surfactant-Assisted Extraction Of Canola Oil For Use As Biodiesel Feedstock, Nattapong Tuntiwiwattanapun
Environmental and Conservation Sciences
In oilseed extraction, alternative extraction media have been studied to replace the traditional solvent, hexane, due to health, safety, and environmental concerns. In this work, aqueous surfactant-assisted extraction was developed and scaled up for hexane-free canola oil extraction. An inexpensive commercial surfactant system was formulated and used as an extraction medium based on the dynamic interfacial tension value. The extraction conditions were evaluated to achieve the maximum oil recovery. The highest oil detachment efficiency was 80% in the absence of hexane at room temperature. The extracted oil had acceptable content of free fatty acids, water and phospholipids for use as …
Identification And Characterization Of Fibrous Zeolites In Western North Dakota, Jason Triplett
Identification And Characterization Of Fibrous Zeolites In Western North Dakota, Jason Triplett
Environmental and Conservation Sciences
The fibrous zeolite mineral erionite is a concern due to its potential for causing lung disease in humans. Studies have shown that exposure to altered volcanic bedrock containing erionite may be the explanation for a high lung disease rate throughout regions of the world (Metintas et al., 1999). Erionite was reported by Forsman (1986) as occurring in tuffaceous rock units of the Arikaree Formation in the Killdeer Mountains of western North Dakota. Rock and soil samples were collected where zeolite minerals are known or suspected to be present including North and South Killdeer Mountains in Dunn County and West and …
Ecological Complexity Of Non-Native Species Impacts In Desert Aquatic Systems, Sujan Maduranga Henkanaththegedara
Ecological Complexity Of Non-Native Species Impacts In Desert Aquatic Systems, Sujan Maduranga Henkanaththegedara
Environmental and Conservation Sciences
Without an adequate understanding of complex interactions between native and non-native species, management of invasive species can result in unforeseen detrimental impacts. I used both field and laboratory experiments to study reciprocal species interactions between the endangered Mohave tui chub (Siphateles bicolor mohavensis) and invasive western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis). I also examined the impacts of both fish species on the aquatic invertebrate communities in desert springs. I demonstrate a case of intraguild predation (IGP) as a mechanism facilitating co-persistence of the endangered Mohave tui chub with invasive mosquitofish using field mesocosm experiments. In this case of IGP, adult tui chub …
Attenuation Of Nitrate From Simulated Agricultural Wastewater Using An Immobilized Anaerobic Biofilm, Mohammad Jahidul Anar
Attenuation Of Nitrate From Simulated Agricultural Wastewater Using An Immobilized Anaerobic Biofilm, Mohammad Jahidul Anar
Environmental and Conservation Sciences
A number of methods are currently in use for attenuating nitrates from wastewater with varying degrees of efficiency. Bioremediation using bacteria may be an efficient and cost effective method. In an anaerobic bioremediation system, nitrate can replace carbon dioxide as an electron acceptor and aids in nitrate attenuation by assimilatory reduction. The purpose of this study was to investigate nitrate attenuation in a hyperfiltration system using a pure culture of strictly anaerobic, facultative Methanobrevibacter ruminantium bacteria. Filtration experiments were conducted using amalgamated Na- montmorillonite clay-glass beads compacted at 500 psi differential hydraulic pressure with or without a biofilm. A simulated …
Crop And Prairie Grasses Serving As Hosts For The Hessian Fly, Yue Li
Crop And Prairie Grasses Serving As Hosts For The Hessian Fly, Yue Li
Entomology
Insect herbivores typically parasitize a relatively small number of plant species. Host specialization is presumed to be a result of evolutionary arms races, with insect adaptations ultimately restricting host range. Being a gall-maker, the Hessian fly has highly evolved interactions with plant hosts. As a consequence, its host range is expected to be narrow. Two crop species, wheat and barley are hosts of the Hessian fly. I studied whether non-crop grasses can also serve as hosts. Included in tests were seven grass species that are important components of the grasslands of the Northern Great Plains. Although less suitable than wheat …
Density And Movement Of Soybean Aphid, Aphis Glycines (Hemiptra: Aphididae) In Response To Temperature And Resistant Soybean Plants, Rebecca Ann Whalen
Density And Movement Of Soybean Aphid, Aphis Glycines (Hemiptra: Aphididae) In Response To Temperature And Resistant Soybean Plants, Rebecca Ann Whalen
Entomology
Movement is one way herbivores respond to their host plant, yet the movement of relatively immobile insects has received little attention. We studied how the movement and density of apterous soybean aphids responds to a resistant soybean variety and different temperatures. In Chapter One, we examined aphid movement both within and between soybean plants that varied in their resistance to aphids. Aphids on resistant plants had a wider dispersal, apparently due to greater aphid movement. Consequently, aphids on resistant plants could move to neighboring susceptible plants, thereby increasing their density. In Chapter Two, we measured aphid density and dispersal on …
"Where Everything Goes To Hell": Stephen King As Literary Naturalist, Meghan Joy Perry
"Where Everything Goes To Hell": Stephen King As Literary Naturalist, Meghan Joy Perry
English
In his bestselling nonfiction book about the horror genre, Danse Macabre, author Stephen King lists among his idols "the great naturalist writer Frank Norris" (336). While King primarily writes horror fiction, he has often noted his indebtedness to early American literary naturalists. As these naturalist writers have been such an influence in King's life and writing, it seems logical to explore whether King himself, in addition to being a horror writer, can also be considered a literary naturalist. By looking at ideas of both early and contemporary American literary naturalism, I explore how a variety of King's works utilize the …
