Bento Search

Search all of LSU Libraries in one place. This includes the catalog, research guides, scholarly repository, website, etc.

What does bento search?

Bento searches all of the available resources at LSU Libraries. Please note that while Discovery does include Catalog results, the dedicated Catalog search can still be accessed.

Discovery
Searches our local print and electronic materials including e-books, journal articles, peer-reviewed articles, news, and magazines.
Research Guides
Searches the full-text of research guides published by LSU Libraries. A research guide is a curated, librarian‑built document that pulls together the most important resources for a topic, course, or assignment. It’s designed to help students, faculty, and researchers quickly find high‑quality, relevant information without having to sift through everything on their own.
Scholarly Repository
Searches the full-text of the Scholarly Repository. The LSU Scholarly Repository collects, preserves, publishes, and makes openly accessible the research and scholarship contributed by LSU faculty, staff, students, and units. Research and scholarly archived materials can include articles, monographs, books, theses & dissertations, audio-visual presentations, working papers, technical reports, conference proceedings, special collections, data, and publicly funded research.

LSU Law : The Louisiana State University Law School From 1906 to 1977
From its founding in 1906, the Louisiana State University Law School has offered its students a truly distinctive legal education. Integrated programs in Louisiana's unique civil law, in Anglo-American common law and federal law, and in international and comparative law create a global law curriculum recognized for both its academic excellence and its outstanding teaching, research, and public service faculty. In LSU Law, alumnus and professor W. Lee Hargrave chronicles the first seventy years of this institution—from its opening classes to the death of its longtime dean, Paul M. Hebert, and its transformation into an autonomous Law Center. He reveals the faces and forces that have helped to create the special mystique surrounding the school and the significance attached to a law degree from LSU.After an initial discussion of the legal profession in Louisiana before the establishment of formal academic instruction, Hargrave maps the school's growth and development. He charts the organizational difficulties of the early years, reputation building in the twenties, politically influenced extravagance in the thirties, wartime challenges in the forties, return to normalcy in the fifties, steady growth in the sixties, and overcrowding in the seventies. Throughout, he explores all aspects of the school—its administrators and faculty, student body, shifting admission requirements, curriculum, grading system debates, influence on Louisiana's legal community and state government, and much more. He also describes how students lived and learned during each era and discusses the effects of outside people and events—including Huey P. Long, World War II, and the civil rights movement—on the school. Hargrave tells the history of the LSU Law School in the context of changes that occurred in legal education throughout the United States, making his work of interest to legal historians and the national law school community. Alumni will also appreciate this detailed study of what has become a Louisiana institution.
Molecular diversity of cox1 and LSU rDNA sequences of Sarcocystis bertrami (syn. S. fayeri) (Apicomplexa: Eucoccidiorida: Sarcocystidae) in horses
Food poisoning caused by consuming raw horsemeat contaminated with Sarcocystis is a significant public health concern. Two morphotypes of sarcocysts in horsemeat, characterized by upright and folded villar protrusions, are typically identified as Sarcocystis fayeri and S. bertrami, respectively. However, recent molecular studies focusing on the ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (cox1) have indicated a conspecific relationship between these two morphotypes using a limited number of specimens. To explore further genetic diversity in equid sarcocysts, cox1 and large-subunit (LSU) rDNA sequences were analyzed in sarcocysts extracted from horsemeat inspected from 150 horses (76 and 41 horses imported from Canada and France, respectively, and 33 horses reared in Japan). Sarcocysts were detected in the muscles of 71, 2, and 3 horses from Canada, France, and Japan, respectively. Fifty-eight sarcocysts underwent cox1 and the LSU rDNA sequencing. Newly obtained cox1 sequences (n = 53) and sequences labeled as equid S. bertrami, S. fayeri and S. asinus retrieved from GenBank (n = 53) exhibited conspecific relationships. Inter-individual variation in cox1 sequences was observed among various sarcocysts, even within a single host animal, although no intra-individual variation was observed. However, nuclear-embedded mitochondrial DNA (NUMT: cox1 pseudogene) sequences were obtained using inappropriate techniques using certain primers. The LSU rDNA of sarcocysts (211 cloned sequences from 54 sarcocysts) exhibited inter-individual and robust intra-individual variations, indicating significant intragenomic rRNA array mosaicism in S. bertrami. These findings confirmed the conspecificity of classically defined species without geographical subpopulations.
