Techno-economic and Life-cycle Analyses of Glucosamine and Lipid Production from Marine Diatom Cyclotella sp.

Creator:: Xiang, Xuwen
Abstract:: Currently the production of biofuel from algae is not economically competitive with petroleum fuel. However, co-production of high-value products may be able to justify the cost of large-scale algae cultivation. The basic goal of this study is to develop a techno-economic analysis (TEA) and Life-cycle assessment (LCA) for the production...

Functional polymers and proteins at interfaces

Creator:: Schilke, Karl F.
Abstract:: Functional polymers and proteins at interfaces and surfaces are of fundamental importance for biomaterials, biocatalysis and microreactor applications. Candida antarctica lipase B immobilized on poly-DL-tryptophan tethers showed 30x higher specific activity in aqueous and non-aqueous media than the same enzyme adsorbed or covalently bound directly to the surface. An excess...

The role of manganese peroxidase in biomass conversion technologies

Creator:: Yee, Kelsey L.
Abstract:: Currently, the technologies used to separate lignocellulosic biomass into its component parts (cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) and enzymatically hydrolyze the cellulose to glucose for conversion to ethanol could be improved economically and in terms of efficiency. A major impediment to utilizing the biomass is the presence of residual lignin. The...

Evaluation of feedstocks for cellulosic ethanol and bioproducts production in the Northwest

Creator:: Miller, Wesley C. (Wesley Clair)
Abstract:: Cellulosic ethanol production for transportation fuel is one source to help satisfy the increasing worldwide demand for energy and depletion of the fossil fuel supply. Evaluating potential production from plants and waste in Oregon, Washington and Idaho is the purpose of this study. Reed Canary grass, Annual Ryegrass, wheat straw,...

Fabrication and application of polymer based microfluidic devices

Creator:: Koesdjojo, Myra T.
Abstract:: The concept of reducing laboratory operations in scale such that they fit on a microfluidic chip has been met with great enthusiasm. Lab-on-a-chip devices promise to be cost effective to operate due to reduced reagent consumption, have the potential to offer shorter analysis times due to their short path lengths,...

Polylcaprolactone-Based Microfluidic Devices : Fabrication Methods and Applications in Low-Cost Analytical Devices

Creator:: Heist, Christopher A.
Abstract:: The overall concept of reducing laboratory operations to a scale that fits on a single microfluidic chip has been an attractive area of research over the last several decades. Despite a surge in research, few commercial success stories have been written. Lab-on-a-chip technologies have the capability to be cost effective...

A study of antimutagenicity in yogurt

Creator:: Sudarshan, Nadathur R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to identify antimutagens in yogurt active against the experimental colon carcinogen, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Our initial experiments showed that acetone extracts of yogurt, or milk fermented by various lactic acid bacteria were antimutagenic against MNNG and 3,2'-dimethyl-4-aminobiphenyl (DMAB) in the Ames test (Salmonella typhimurium TA...

Lipid Profile in Pinot Noir Wine: Contributions to Taste and Mouthfeel Perception, Impacts of Winemaking Techniques, and Potential Use As Markers for Identifying Wine Origin

Creator:: Phan, Quynh K.
Abstract:: Wine taste and mouthfeel are essential factors that determine consumer acceptance, consumer preference, and wine quality. The three taste descriptors, sweet, sour, and bitter, are well understood and routinely appearing in wine sensory. In contrast, information related to mouthfeel sensations is still relatively limited. Winemakers have worked hard to craft...

Use of Organoleptic Methodologies to Evaluate Wine Oligosaccharides and Wines made from Grapevine Red Blotch Virus Positive Vines Subjected to Various Vineyard Management Practices

Creator:: Hoffman, Samuel
Abstract:: The human senses can be used as analytical tools to evaluate many different aspects of our daily lives. The use of our senses through organoleptic methods offers unique and powerful insights into the characteristics of different stimuli. Due to the unique function of the different sensory organs we use to...
