Proteomic and Molecular Analysis of Methicillin Resistance and Selected Toxigenic genes in Coagulase-negative Staphylococcus spp From Food and Animal Sources.
(North Dakota State University, 2010)While most coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CNS) are apathogenic, recent evidence suggests some food and animal derived CNS isolates may carry and express virulence factors including classical enterotoxins, toxic shock ... -
Quantitative Analysis for Measuring Lower Levels of Fusarium Mycotoxins in Wheat and Barley Using High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry
(North Dakota State University, 2020)This project involved the application of Quadrupole Time of Flight (QTOF) technology in quantitating the low concentrations of multiple Fusarium mycotoxins in barley and wheat, also focused on simplified sample extraction ... -
A Quantitative Cost Model of HACCP Implementation
(North Dakota State University, 2011)Foodbome illness is an important public health problem in the United States. Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) is widely acknowledged as an effective method to ensure product quality and control foodbome ... -
Relatedness ofisolates of a Novel Genus, Cronobacter, Formerly Known as Enterobacter sakazakii
(North Dakota State University, 2010)Members of the genus Cronobacter were once classified as Enterobacter sakazakii. These bacteria are opportunistic pathogens that are associated with necrotizing enteritis, sepsis and meningitis in neonatal or low-birth-weight ... -
Strategies to Inhibit the Formation of 3-Monochloropropane Diol During Deep-Fat Frying
(North Dakota State University, 2020)3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol or 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) and glycidol are the most commonly occurring group of thermal process contaminants which are considered as “possible human carcinogen” and “probably ... -
Survey of Claviceps purpurea and Fusarium Toxins in Spring Wheat and Fungicide Efficacy on Ergot Sclerotia, Alkaloid Content, and Saprophytic Fusarium Associated Toxins
(North Dakota State University, 2022)Fusarium head blight (FHB) and ergot of the claviceps purpurea (Fr.) Tul. have adverse effects on grain quality and human and animal health. Each year, Hard Red Spring (HRS) wheat samples are collected at harvest to survey ... -
Synthesis and Antioxidant, Anticancer, and Antimicrobial Activities of Palmityl Ester Derivative of Carnosic Acid
(North Dakota State University, 2013)Carnosic acid (CA) along with carnosol (CAR) is the strongest phenolic diterpene antioxidants (PDAs) present in rosemary plant. However, CA has low antioxidant activity in emulsion-type food system due to its polar nature. ... -
Total Glucosinolate Preservation and Near Infrared Prediction in Rapeseed Meal
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Glucosinolates (GLS) and their hydrolysis products are of great food and feed safety concern because they are responsible for both the beneficial and harmful properties of GLS-containing plants. Understanding GLS storage ... -
