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

    Creator:
    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

    Creator:
    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...

  • Total kinetic energy release in the fast neutron induced fission of actinide nuclei

    Creator:
    Loveland, Walter
    Abstract:
    The total kinetic energy release and fission mass distributions for the fast neutron (En = 3–100 MeV) induced fission of 232Th, 233U, 235U, 237Np, 239Pu, 240Pu, and 242Pu have been measured using the LANSCE facility. The neutron energies were deduced from time-of- flight measurements. The fission fragments were detected using...

  • Comprehensive Analysis of The Brain Metabolome Using Mass Spectrometry in Conjunction with Data Analysis Techniques

    Creator:
    Khorani, Mona
    Abstract:
    Metabolomics has recently gained momentum in biomolecule research and complements the genomics and proteomics research space. Metabolomics strives to detect, identify, and quantify all metabolites present in biological samples. In particular, biomolecular analysis using ultra-performance liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) has become increasingly important for metabolomic analyses. Similarly,...

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

    Creator:
    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....

  • Novel Charge Carriers for Aqueous Electrochemical Energy Storage

    Creator:
    Sandstrom, Sean K.
    Abstract:
    The continued long-term use of fossil fuels as a primary energy source has resulted in dramatic increases in greenhouse gas emissions and the associated concerns of climate change and environmental pollution. A key strategy to circumvent these issues is a global shift away from fossil fuels toward renewable energy sources....

  • Electrochemical Reactions in Aqueous Batteries with Anionic Charge Carriers

    Creator:
    Gallagher, Trenton C.
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, the primary objective is to discover more sustainable electrode materials and study new reaction mechanisms using aqueous electrolytes. The first study conducted reveals a reversible conversion reaction from copper to Cu2CO3(OH)2. The reaction mechanism uses OH- and CO32- as charge carriers at the cathode. The results open...

  • Characterization and Biodegradation of Commercial Reference Material Capstone 1157

    Creator:
    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...

  • Laser patterned porous-media microfluidic analytical devices : fabrication methods and applications in bioassays

    Creator:
    Sumantakul, Saichon
    Abstract:
    The concept of reducing laboratory operations into microfluidic devices has been an attractive area of research for several decades. Due to several advantages of porous-media microfluidic devices including low mass, portability, power-free fluid transport, and the ability to store dried reagents in the porous structures, these devices show great promise...

    Creator:
    Cao, Dunping
    Abstract:
    Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of anthropogenic compounds that are used ubiquitously in different industrial fields. However, concerns regarding the potential health impacts of PFAS, including perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) and perfluoroalkyl sulfonates (PFSAs), has raised stakeholder interest regarding continued use of PFAS. Analytical methods for PFAS...
