The Massachusetts Alliance On Teen Pregnancy: A Case Study Advocating For Pregnant And Parenting Teens In Massachusetts, Kassandra Petr Feb 2012

The Massachusetts Alliance On Teen Pregnancy: A Case Study Advocating For Pregnant And Parenting Teens In Massachusetts, Kassandra Petr

Capstone Collection

Teenage pregnancy emerged as a major social problem in the 1970’s; however, its frequency is by no means a recent social phenomenon. The appropriate age at which to marry, have sexual relations, conceive and give birth to a child has always been defined culturally. In the United States, this age has varied considerably across time, class, race, ethnicity, place, and gender. The presence and frequency of childbirth to teenage mothers has also varied over time with increased female education, the introduction of marriage later in life, as well as the legalization of abortions, to name a few. However, one thing …

Homeopoesis: Aristotle On Nutrition And Growth, John Thorp Feb 2012

Homeopoesis: Aristotle On Nutrition And Growth, John Thorp

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

This paper seeks to understand how Aristotle’s ideas about nutrition avoid cancerous growth: why does the flesh that is distilled out of the digestive process, and that travels out to the various parts of the body, not just produce formless growth? De Anima II.5 gives a purely formal reply ("limit and ratio:") Using GA and GC I try to put together Aristotle's schematic account of the process.

Influence Of –Carrageenan, Pectin, And Gelatin On The Physicochemical Properties And Stability Of Milk Protein-Stabilized Emulsions, M. Tippetts, Silvana Martini Feb 2012

Influence Of –Carrageenan, Pectin, And Gelatin On The Physicochemical Properties And Stability Of Milk Protein-Stabilized Emulsions, M. Tippetts, Silvana Martini

Nutrition, Dietetics, and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

This study evaluated the stability of bilayer emulsions as a function of secondary layer composition and pH. Primary emulsions were formulated with 5% soybean oil, 1% protein from nonfat dry milk (NDM) powder as emulsifier and ι-carrageenan (ι-carr), low-methoxyl pectin (LMp), high-methoxyl pectin (HMp), or gelatin as secondary layers. ζ-Potential values increased for each emulsion as the pH decreased, with ι-carr emulsions being consistently more negatively charged than primary emulsions and significantly more stable. ζ-Potential values were not always correlated to emulsion stability. Gelatin secondary emulsions at pH 3 and HMp secondary emulsions at pH 7 were unstable due to …


Identification And Quantification Of Flavor Attributes Present In Chicken, Lamb, Pork, Beef, And Turkey, Curtis Maughan, Silvana Martini Feb 2012

Identification And Quantification Of Flavor Attributes Present In Chicken, Lamb, Pork, Beef, And Turkey, Curtis Maughan, Silvana Martini

Nutrition, Dietetics, and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

The objectives of this study were to use a meat flavor lexicon to identify and quantify flavor differences among different types of meats such as beef, chicken, lamb, pork, and turkey, and to identify and quantify specific flavor attributes associated with “beef flavor” notes. A trained descriptive panel with 11 participants used a previously developed meat lexicon composed of 18 terms to evaluate the flavor of beef, chicken, pork, turkey, and lamb samples. Results show that beef and lamb samples can be described by flavor attributes such as barny, bitter, gamey, grassy, livery, metallic, and roast beef. Inversely related to …


Molecular Mechanisms Of Ampk- And Akt-Dependent Survival Of Glucose-Starved Cardiac Myocytes, Ines Chopra Feb 2012

Molecular Mechanisms Of Ampk- And Akt-Dependent Survival Of Glucose-Starved Cardiac Myocytes, Ines Chopra

Open Access Dissertations

Muscle may experience hypoglycemia during ischemia or insulin infusion. During severe hypoglycemia energy production is blocked and an increase in AMP:ATP activates the energy sensor and putative insulin-sensitizer AMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK promotes energy conservation and survival by shutting down anabolism and activating catabolic pathways. We investigated the molecular mechanism of a unique glucose stress defense pathway involving AMPK-dependent, insulin-independent activation of the insulin signaling pathway. Results from my work showed that the central insulin signaling pathway is rapidly activated when cardiac and skeletal myocytes are subjected to conditions of glucose starvation. The effect occurred independently of insulin receptor …

The Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) is an observational study of 14273 UK pregnant singleton mothers in 1990/1991. We examined outcomes of self report of strenuous activity (hours per week) at 18 and 32 weeks of gestation, hours spent in leisure-time physical activities and types, and pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI); overweight status was defined as pre-pregnancy BMI$25 and obesity BMI$30. Pet ownership and activity data were reported for 11,466 mothers. Twenty-five percent of mothers owned at least one dog. There was a positive relationship between participation in activity at least once a week and dog ownership …
