Synthesis and function of bioactive, block copolymer surfactant constructs as relevant to the preparation of anticoagulant and antibacterial medical implant surfaces.

Creator:: Joshi, Pranav R.
Abstract:: Nisin, an antibacterial peptide proven to be an effective inhibitor of Gram-positive bacteria, was incorporated into novel block copolymer constructs and tested for retained antibacterial activity. Covalent coupling was achieved by chemical modification of the N-terminal isoleucine to introduce a thiol group. Thiolated nisin derivatives were then linked to poly[ethylene...

An Empirical Study of Work-zone Safety and Mobility Using Surveys and Anonymous User Generated Trip Information

Creator:: Fiawoyife, Kenneth K.
Abstract:: The two primary considerations for highway work-zones are its effect on commuter mobility and worker safety which are often spoken of together. However, it must be noted that they often conflict with each other. For example, traffic control plans that reduce travel speed in work-zones improve both commuter and worker...

Investigating One-way Stream-aquifer Connectivity on Streamflow Predictions during Hydrologic Extremes in the National Water Model

Creator:: Jachens, Elizabeth R.
Abstract:: Surface water and groundwater are intimately connected by a two-way flux between the stream and the underlying aquifers; a complicated yet crucial relationship to represent in models. However, the National Water Model currently only considers a one-way flux, where groundwater can enter a stream but cannot return to the aquifer....

Tandem mass spectrometric analysis of protein and peptide adducts of lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes

Creator:: Wu, Jianyong
Abstract:: The adduction of proteins and other biomolecules by electrophilic lipid peroxidation products such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), 4-oxo-2-nonenal (ONE), malondialdehyde (MDA) or acrolein (ACR) is thought to be an initiating and/or propagating factor in the pathophysiology of several diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and other age-related disorders. The identification...

Rheological Techniques in Characterization and Aiding in the Modification of Soft Matter

Creator:: Daalkhaijav, Uranbileg
Abstract:: Soft matter encapsulates a large array of materials ranging from electronics, plastics, and cosmetics to the biofluids making up all organisms. One of the most important properties of these materials that dictate their functionality is their rheology, which is the flow and deformation behavior in response to stress. The focus...

Soil biochemical measures as ecological indicators across agricultural and forest ecosystems of Oregon

Creator:: Knight, Timothy R.
Abstract:: A variety of soil properties have been proposed and tested as potential indicators of soil quality. This study was conducted in an effort to produce a standardized soil quality index for systems in Oregon. Soils in both forested and agricultural systems were sampled in a wide variety of locations, climates,...

Impacts of Reduced Tillage and Disturbance on Soil Health and Microbial Community Dynamics in Grass Seed Cropping Systems

Creator:: Zamora, Cesar G.
Abstract:: In Oregon perennial and annual grass seed cropping systems conservation management practices and their impacts on soil health and soil microbial community is not well understood. There is strong motivation to employ conservation tillage and other conservation practices to curb atmospheric carbon levels and improve soil health. However, the few...

Prediction and Measurement of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) Transformation Products in the Environment.

Creator:: Titaley, Ivan A.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a group of environmental contaminants consisting of fused benzene rings. Parent-PAHs, methylated-PAHs (MPAHs), and PAHs with molecular weight of 302 a.m.u (MW302-PAHs) are considered as unsubstituted-PAHs. These unsubstituted-PAHs undergo transformation reactions resulting in the formation of PAH-transformation products (PAH-TPs), or substituted-PAHs, including nitrated-, oxygenated-, and...

The identification and quantitation of complex polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures in environmental samples using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography with time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Creator:: Manzano, Carlos A.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous contaminants and are mostly products of the incomplete combustion of organic material. PAHs are often found in environmental samples as a complex mixture of isomers. In addition, the same sources that produce complex PAH mixtures also produce other poorly characterized mixtures of organic compounds,...

Synthesis, characterization, and analysis of nitroaromatic compounds

Creator:: McIntosh, Melissa Luana
Abstract:: Nitroaromatic compounds have important chemical applications and can be found in nature as pollution sources. Synthetic nitroaromatic compounds have been used in a variety of materials including explosives, pharmaceuticals, dyes, plastics, and pesticides. These compounds can find their way into the environment through normal or improper disposal methods. Poly-aromatic compounds...
