Purification of cyclotron-produced 89Zr for its use in diagnostic radiopharmaceutical labeling

Schöpfer:: Knaus, Clinton W.
Abstract:: Production of 89Zr serves as a crucial preliminary step for exploring Zr-chelates, determining their stability constants, and advancing radiolabeling methodologies for monoclonal antibody based theranostics. 89Zr is typically produced by the irradiation of natural yttrium targets, a process extensively documented in scientific literature. Two primary methods are employed: the 89Y(p,n)89Zr...

Optimizing the Membrane Architecture and Interrogating the Stability of Hybrid Lipid-coated Gold Nanoparticles for Biological Studies and Applications

Schöpfer:: Kmetz-Gonzalez, Gemma
Abstract:: Nanoparticles are a hugely diverse category of material that have a wide variety of biomedical applications, and developing tools for biological research with high cellular uptake is critical to their effective application. However, rarely is attention paid to the exact mechanism by which this is occurring, with most studies focusing...

CO₂ capture from wet flue gas using a water-stable and cost-effective metal-organic framework

Schöpfer:: Loughran, Ryan P.
Abstract:: We report the use of MIL-120 as a water-stable and cost-effective metal-organic framework (MOF) for selectively capturing CO₂ from wet flue gas. Synthesized using inexpensive and environmentally benign reagents in water, MIL-120 possesses one-dimensional pores decorated with hydroxyl-bridged Al(III) ions and benzene rings with an interstitial spacing of 4.78 Å....

Characterization and Biodegradation of Commercial Reference Material Capstone 1157

Schöpfer:: Van Meter, Mariann I.
Abstract:: Capstone 1157 is a commercial reference material used in aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) applications and was manufactured by DuPont. The material’s purpose in this project was to be the sole carbon source to microbes in a biodegradation study in a microcosm environment. The goal of this project was to...

Low-Dose X-Ray Radiation Effects On the Proteomic Profiles of Hippocampus, Cortex, and Cerebellum of Contextual Fear Conditioning and Novel Object Recognition Trained Mice

Schöpfer:: Koluda, Rony
Abstract:: Radiation exposure to the brain can occur from a variety of events, including space missions, nuclear accidents, and clinical treatments. The effects of high dose radiation are well studied, but those of lower dosage are more elusive. Decline of memory and cognition is observed in patients exposed to low dose...

Porous metal-organic materials for gas capture

Schöpfer:: Rookard, Tanner Daniel
Abstract:: Metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) are discrete molecules comprised of a metal and interconnecting ligands. The resulting MOP structures are porous cages, and to date, they have shown great promise toward gas capture. Ammonia is a hazardous gas that is produced in enormous quantities for use in fertilizers. In this talk, I...

A Reversible Conversion Cathode – Convert Dual-ion Battery into Rocking-Chair Battery

Schöpfer:: Wu, Che-Yu
Abstract:: In Dual-ion Batteries, anions as charge carriers might be a potential technique of energy storage. While fluoride anion has been selected as a promising charge carrier for energy storage due to its high charge/mass ratio and small ionic radius, carbonate anion has never been reported as a charge carrier for...

Alternating Between Amperometric Copper Detection and Potentiometric Calcium Detection on a Carbon-based Ion-selective Electrode

Schöpfer:: Park, Suji
Abstract:: The unique capability of carbon-based ion-selective electrode (ISE) to perform highly sensitive anodic stripping voltammetry, while maintaining all the properties of an ISE, is demonstrated in terms of sensitivity, detection limit, response time and selectivity. Square wave anodic stripping voltammetry involves deposition and dissolution steps of metal ions, which means...

Total Synthesis of Isotopologues of Xanthohumol and its Congeners for Biological Studies

Schöpfer:: Plagmann, Layhna S.
Abstract:: Xanthohumol [XN, (E)-6´-methoxy-3´-(3-methylbuten-2-yl)-2´,4´,4´´-trihydroxychalcone], the principal prenylated chalcone from hops, and its 2,3-dihydro- (DXN) and O6-desmethyl-2,3-dihydro- (DDXN) congeners, are of potential utility for the amelioration of metabolic syndrome; however, their complex bioactivity profiles cannot be properly studied and understood without access to appropriately produced synthetic materials. In the first part of...

Using Computational and Statistical Methods as an Aid to Study Environmentally Relevant Organic Molecules

Schöpfer:: Dorn, Shelby E.
Abstract:: In this report, three studies are presented that utilize computations to predict transformations, identities, and properties of environmental organic molecules. Each study shows how computations can lead to models of chemical behavior. The importance of this research is rooted in the need for understanding how human behavior and health intersect...
