(2010-03)
Background: Although clopidogrel (CLO) pretreatment benefits PCI patients with acute coronary syndromes, these benefits are less well-established among elective PCI patients—particularly when treated with the direct thrombin ...
Phenolics in red wine pomace and their potential application in animal and human health
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Grape pomace by-products, from wine-making, have some beneficial antioxidant compounds left in them after vinification and could be a cheap source of these compounds for value added products. One of the most common antioxidant ...
Effect of dry matter intake restriction on energy balance, ruminal fermentation, and nutrient retention by beef steers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Two studies were conducted to determine the effects of DMI restriction on digestion and metabolism by feedlot steers. In Trial 1, 12 Angus X steers (BW [almost equal to] 450 [plus or minus] 18 kg) were assigned randomly ...
An evaluation of pre- and post-timber harvest water quality in low-order streams in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Missouri Department of Conservation's (MDC) best management practices (BMPs) for Regenerative Oak Clear Cutting (ROCC) practice was evaluated on effectiveness to preserve downstream water quality. Fifteen sites, located ...
Exploring the impact of peracetic acid on bacterial regrowth and plasmid release and developing a novel whole-cell biosensor to monitor the expression of quorum sensing genes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Peracetic acid (PAA or CH3COOOH) is a promising alternative to chlorine-based disinfectants for water and wastewater treatment due to its strong ...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Cisplatin (cDDP), the first platinum chemotherapy compound, has been used in cancer chemotherapy in human beings and animals for more than thirty ...
The role of load in initiation and progression of cartilage pathology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Articular cartilage is primarily responsible for dissipation of load in diarthrodial joints. Load plays a critical role in maintaining cartilage health, but can also be a primary contributing factor in cartilage disease ...
Investigation of mechanisms associated with establishment and maintenance of pregnancy in beef cattle
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
L IM dose of 0.1 mg estradiol 17-[beta] (Low endogenous E2 + adequate E2 supplementation; Estradiol; n = 109). To examine the timing of embryonic loss in the preceding treatments genetically identical pools of embryos, of similar developmental stage...
Endocrinology of equine metabolic pathophysiology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Obesity in horses is associated with a number of maladies including insulin resistance and laminitis; therefore studies investigating the metabolic physiology of equine were done. In our first study, we characterized the ...
Sorption and leaching characteristics of heavy metals in artificial soil
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The objective of this study was to investigate the heavy metal sorption and leaching characteristics of an "artificial soil" formed by blending industrial and municipal by-products and implemented as a beneficial waste ...
Final report : aerobic and anaerobic digestion characteristics of livestock wastes
(University of Missouri, 1964)
This laboratory study was initiated with the purpose of determining the aerobic and anaerobic digestion characteristics of livestock wastes. Hog, cow, and sheep manure were digested anaerobically in bench-scale digesters. ...

Effects of heat stress and fescue toxicosis on the immune system and other physiological parameters
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Tall fescue is widely used as pasture grass in the United States, and is the most important cool season grass for grazing animals. Certain fungi also grow on these grasses which produce toxins, resulting in reduced feed ...
Contribution of de novo lipogenesis to the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
subjects received different doses (50, 100, and 15 mg/d) and within the high dose group, DNL was reduced maximally by 75 [percent] which resulted in a 5 [percent] reduction in liver fat and a 36 [percent] reduction in liver enzymes. Lastly...
Evaluation of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite assays for short-term stressors and validation for stress monitoring in African herbivores
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
During stressful periods, glucocorticoid production is increased. Glucocorticoid metabolites are found in blood, urine and feces. Our first goal was to determine if fecal glucocorticoid metabolite (FGM) measurements are a ...
