Development of Microfluidic Assays and Flow Control Tools on Porous Materials: Towards a Wound-Health Monitoring Device

Creator:: Downs, Corey J.
Abstract:: Remote health monitoring tools have significant potential to revolutionize the current healthcare paradigm. Such tools could improve efficiencies in healthcare by alerting patients and doctors to abnormal health conditions in real time, shortening the time to diagnose and treat ailments. To meet these needs, we pursue the development of fabric-based...

Development of a Paper-Based Whole Blood Phenylalanine Assay for PKU Diagnosis and Monitoring in Low Resource Settings

Creator:: Robinson, Robert Tyler
Abstract:: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a genetic inborn metabolic disorder which inhibits the functional production of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). It currently affects one in 15,000 Americans and is the most common amino acid metabolism error found in newborns. Individuals affected with PKU are incapable of metabolizing the amino acid, phenylalanine...

Development of Rapid Diagnostic Tools for Personal Health Monitors in the Context of Therapy Monitoring

Creator:: Wentland, Lael T.
Abstract:: Personal health monitoring tools, a subset of point-of care-diagnostics, enable more frequent testing of chronic health conditions outside of a clinic setting and can inform personalized therapy or support telehealth diagnostic capabilities. While there is evidence that regular monitoring of chronic conditions can lead to better health outcomes and lower...

Signal Enhancement in Lateral Flow Tests for Infant HIV Diagnosis

Creator:: Rodriguez, Michael A.
Abstract:: Paper-based assays for HIV diagnosis are cheap, portable, and require little to no skilled training, electricity, or expensive equipment to perform successfully. However, there is a need for tests with lower limits of detection (LOD) for diagnosing infection at the earliest stages. Effective labeling to increase signal-to-noise ratio is critical...

Cu-Ga-S/ZnS Quantum Dots with Silica Melting Gel as a Luminescent Downshifting Coating for Enhancing Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation

Creator:: Chen, Si-Hao
Abstract:: Solar cells, also known as photovoltaic devices, are a class of renewable energy systems that can convert photons into electrons without the carbon dioxide emission. Short-wavelength, high-energy photons in the ultraviolet (UV) range can't be efficiently utilized by most solar cells because of the spectral mismatch. Luminescent downshifting is a...

Understanding Charge and Mass Transfer Phenomena in Functional Oxide Heterostructures

Creator:: Samarakoon, Widitha
Abstract:: Oxides are a versatile class of materials with a wide range of electronic, optical, and magnetic properties. This makes them ideal for use in a multitude of functional devices for oxide electronics, electrochemical conversion, and storage. The overall performance of these devices is governed by atomic scale charge and mass...

Towards a Selectively Bioactive Surface for the Removal of Circulating Endotoxin in Blood

Creator:: Raman, Ramya
Abstract:: Sepsis is an inflammatory reaction occurring throughout the human body to infections caused by bacteria, fungi, and or other forms of pathogens. It is essential to find an alternative treatment method for sepsis, to lessen the dependence on antibiotics. Hemoperfusion is an absorbent device that removes select targets from blood,...

Surface-Initiated Click-Ready Bioactive Polymer Coatings: Synthesis and Characterization

Creator:: Yu, Bonan
Abstract:: Protein adsorption on blood contacting medical devices usually causes fouling and failure, and may promote clotting and undesirable immune responses. Hydrophilic polymer coatings in a dense, pendent “brush” conformation can resist protein adsorption on the surface while increasing biocompatibility. Such coatings can also be used to immobilize a variety of...

Immobilization of Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b in a Biolamina Plate Reactor for the Oxidation of Methane to Methanol

Creator:: Fuchs, Brian K.
Abstract:: Methane is a flammable gas that is the main component of natural gas. It is a highly potent greenhouse gas, and accounts for about 20% of greenhouse gas emissions. Methane is routinely flared in many industrial processes without harnessing any of its energy. The environmental impact and wasted energy potential...

Design Principles of Transition Metal X-ide Catalysts for Electrochemical Oxygen Reduction and Evolution Reactions: In-Situ X-ray Spectroscopy Studies

Creator:: Wang, Maoyu
Abstract:: Hydrogen is the green fuel that can be produced from water through electrolysis and used via hydrogen fuel cells to generate electricity with zero carbon dioxide emission. The commercialization of electrolyzers and fuel cells is the critical step to achieving global carbon neutrality. However, it is severely hampered by the...
