Metabolic Effects in C57B/6J Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet Supplemented with Chromium Picolinate and Chromium Yeast

Creator:: Yu, Wesley
Abstract:: An estimated total of 30.3 million people have diabetes in the United States, a disease characterized by chronic elevation in blood glucose which over time, can lead to a host of health problems. Currently the most common types of diabetes are type 1, type 2, and gestational. The principal hormone...

Controlled Orientation of Engineered Carbonic Anhydrase on a Surface : A Model for Protein Immobilization for Biosensors and Biomaterials

Creator:: Brown, Wesley
Abstract:: Current protein immobilization techniques lack defined control over protein orientation. Protein orientation is important for making biosensors and biomaterials that are sensitive and efficient and can be crucial for designing some devices such as immunosensors or direct electron transferring biocells. A new method of protein immobilization is proposed that takes...

Ergonomic Analysis of the Global Formula Racing Driver Interface

Creator:: Davis, Sean M.
Abstract:: Between Oregon State University and DHBW Ravensberg, Global Formula Racing produces two Formula style vehicles every year for competition. This thesis has served as a pre-development project in the ergonomics and driver interface of the team's vehicles. This project will determine the position of the seat back, steering wheel, and...

Early competitive environments differentially influence stress axis responses in sympatric, ecologically similar songbirds

Creator:: Hardt, Braelei M.
Abstract:: 1. Early competitive environments can shape the development of offspring across taxa. For example, competition for food can have downstream effects on offspring phenotypes and fitness; however, little is known about how early competition influences the development of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis and its potential tradeoff with growth. Because baseline and...

Wildfire Severity Has a Minimal Influence on Pollen Diversity Used by Developing Mason Bees (Osmia lignaria) in Mixed Conifer Forest

Creator:: Bell, Nicole C. S.
Abstract:: Native bees are critically important organisms that support biodiversity and crop production via their pollination services. Wildfires in temperate conifer forests can increase bee abundance and flowering plant density due to increased light exposure, but little information is available regarding how wildfire severity influences provisioning to bee offspring, which is...

Metabolomic Analysis of Oregon Coast Sediment Pore Waters using Ultrahigh Resolution Mass Spectrometry

Creator:: Merlo, James B.
Abstract:: One of the principal drivers of climate change is the concentration of greenhouse gases such as CO2 in the atmosphere. A large portion of this CO2 ends up in the waters off the continental coasts where it transforms into biomass. The major sink for this matter is the ocean sediments...

Experimental Design Approach for Evaluation of Airfoil-Driven Energy Harvesting

Creator:: Strahl, Jordan D.
Abstract:: An experimental setup has been partially developed to investigate the impact of an actively controlled trailing edge component upon the energy harvesting performance of an oscillating airfoil in a pitching and heaving regime. While previous and current efforts have and continue to function to characterize the performance of such a...

Old McDonald had a Microscope: The Impact of Research Spending on U.S. Agricultural Productivity

Creator:: Rietmann, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: The United States is a global leader in agricultural productivity. Much of its productivity growth can be attributed to public investments in agricultural research and development, starting in the 19th century and continuing until today. Past studies have shown high returns to agricultural research investments, but publicly funded agricultural research...

Solar Thermal Energy System for Renewable Desalination

Creator:: McLaughlin, Ryan P.
Abstract:: Natural freshwater availability is decreasing as the global population increases. Advances in desalination technologies aim to produce fresh water in an economical way. More sustainable energy sources are desired for these desalination plants to limit the carbon footprint of water production since global carbon dioxide production is exacerbating freshwater scarcity....
