Changes in Otolith Shape in Juvenile Chinook Salmon in Different Hatchery Rearing Conditions

Creator:

Ehrke, Melissa A.

Abstract:

The decline of the Chinook Salmon has been a mystery of recent years due to their decline. It has been speculated that wild origin salmon have more vigor and survivability than hatchery reared fish. This is thought to be due to rearing conditions, possibly affecting sensory organ development. The sensory...

VOC Emisions and Categorization in Axenic Growth Conditions by Phaeodactylum tricornutum

Creator:

Thompson, Douglas A.

Abstract:

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play an integral role in climate change and as a carbon source for organisms living in a marine environment. These compounds have many sources, but the impacts of biogenically produced VOCs is not fully known. Phaeodactylum tricornutum was studied under axenic ideal growth conditions to determine...

Utilization of structure-activity-relationship for predicting chemical toxicity in primary human lung cells

Creator:

Galbreath, Amanda

Abstract:

There is a growing need to establish alternative approaches for assessing hazard from chemical exposure compared to the traditional method of animal testing. Approaches that relate chemical structure to biological activity are gaining acceptance in the field as in silico methods for characterizing and predicting chemical toxicity. In this study,...
