ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my sincere appreciation to my major advisor, Dr. Witoon Prinyawiwatkul, for his guidance, encouragement, patience, and understanding throughout the course of this research. I am also thankful to Dr. Hong Kyoon No for providing me the research topic and valuable suggestions. I would like to thank Dr. Marlene E. Janes and Dr. Zhimin Xu for serving on my committee. Further acknowledgements are extended to Dr. Jack N. Losso, Dr. Joan M. King, Dr. Marlene E. Janes, and Dr. Zhimin Xu, not only for providing me the research facilities but also for imparting valuable knowledge that I used in this research. Special thanks are also extended to Dr. Kayanush J. Aryana, Dr. Charles Boeneke, and Ms. Paula McGrew, from the Department of Diary Science and also Dr. Lavry Khachatryan from the Department of Chemistry at LSU for their valuable technical assistance and constructive advice. My sincere gratitude and appreciation goes to my dear collegues and friends, Kandasamy Nadarajah and Janette Saidu who have assisted and supported me throughout the most rigorous phase of my research with their expertise, wisdom, and friendship. Last but not least, I thank my husband, Christian, and my children, Kristi and Victor, who are the sunshine of my life for their encouragement and support throughout every endeavor of mine. It is to them that this work is dedicated. ii
