Analytical methods capable of trace measurement of semi-volatile organic
compounds (SOCs) are necessary to assess the exposure of tadpoles to contaminants as a
result of long-range and regional atmospheric transport and deposition. The following
study compares the results of two analytical methods, one using pressurized liquid
extraction (PLE) and the...

Contaminants used at low elevation, such as pesticides on crops, can be transported tens of kilometers and deposited in adjacent mountains in many parts of the world. Atmospherically deposited organic contaminants in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California, USA, have exceeded some thresholds of concern, but the spatial and temporal...

Emerging evidence suggests that the tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in regulating cancer
stem cells (CSCs) and tumor progression through both autocrine and paracrine signaling. Elevated
production of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) from human ovarian cancer cells and stroma has
been shown to increase CSC proliferation and tumor growth....
Bioenergy is a rapidly growing subsector of the emerging global bioeconomy, with the potential to create a substantial number of jobs and mitigate climate change. In order to develop bioenergy into a viable industry, capable of providing valuable energy and employment, there is an immediate need for a skilled workforce...
The purpose of this study was to analyze and interpret the results
of fall term student ratings of faculty teaching performance (n= 40,000)
in order to determine whether relationships exist between a range of
demographic variables and the ratings professors receive from students
enrolled in their classes. A population of...
