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

Creator:: 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...

A novel method for zinc oxide nanowire sensor fabrication

Creator:: Pelatt, Brian D.
Abstract:: Interest in nanomaterials is motivated partly by their potential for sensor arrays to detect different gases. Nanowires in particular are of interest because their high surface-to-volume ratio promises the possibility of high sensitivity. However, because of their discrete quasi-one-dimensional geometry, electrical integration of nanowires into photolithographically defined devices and circuits...

Electrochemical Micro-sensors for Probing Bacterial Metabolic Behavior with Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy

Creator:: Jayathilake, Nadeeshani M.
Abstract:: Dental plaque is one of the well-characterized biofilms in the human body. Oral bacterial species play vital roles in maintaining healthy bacterial homeostasis as well as causing oral infections. Many of the oral diseases are caused by opportunistic pathogens, and therefore, the bacterial metabolic activities become important in dictating their...

Characterization of phenolics in Marion and Evergreen blackberries

Creator:: Siriwoharn, Thanyaporn
Abstract:: Frozen Marion (Rubus sp. hyb) and Evergreen blackberries (Rubus laciniatus) (whole berries, berries without seeds, and seeds alone) were acetone/ chloroform extracted. Phenolics were isolated using C₁₈ cartridges and polyamide resins, then characterized and measured by reversed-phase HPLC/diode array spectral techniques. The Polyamide isolated fractions of Marion berries contained four...

Effects of ultraviolet illumination and a parylene-A activation layer on the gas phase sensing characteristics of ZnO nanobridges

Creator:: Mason, Ashley D.
Abstract:: ZnO nanowires (NWs) are good candidates for chemical sensing because of their high surface-to-volume ratio. In this work, ZnO nanobridge sensors were fabricated utilizing a novel method which uses carbonized photoresist (C-PR) as a nucleation layer. The use of C-PR allows simultaneous growth and integration of NWs to lithographically-defined features....

Electrochemical Advancement of Solid State Ion Selective Electrodes

Creator:: Bahro, Christopher
Abstract:: The general theme of this dissertation is the development of new analytical sensors to quantitatively study biological and environmental samples in aqueous and non-aqueous environments. A platinum ultramicroelectrode (UME) and a unique carbon-based pH microprobe were used to design a new SECM-based electrochemical bioassay. The Pt UME was used to...

Model Predictive Control for Optimum Algal Growth

Creator:: Juneja, Ankita
Abstract:: Microalgae has been under careful consideration as a sustainable feedstock for renewable fuel recently due to its year round production with high energy yields per unit area, reduced need for arable land, water treatment benefits with nutrient cycling, and minimal competition with the food industry. Despite of all these advantages,...

Biochemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to ethanol : experimental, enzymatic hydrolysis modeling, techno-economic and life cycle assessment studies

Creator:: Kumar, Deepak
Abstract:: Ethanol production from lignocellulosic feedstock has been under intense scrutiny as a transportation fuel due to its potential to address concerns of increasing energy consumption, limited fossil energy resources, climate changes due to greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels, and especially use of non-food biomaterials, which address the biggest limitation...

Probing the Biophysical interactions of Anti-Microbial Peptide WLBU2 Using Model Membrane Systems

Creator:: Golbek, Thaddeus W.
Abstract:: WLBU2 is an engineered cationic amphiphilic peptide that targets Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and envelopes endotoxin while avoiding other cell types. The exact mechanism of how WLBU2 targets, binds, and disrupts bacterial cell membranes is still not completely known. Thus, the overall goal of this investigation is to determine the...

Evaluation of body composition assessments for a high school wrestling weight certification program

Creator:: Oja, Kristen M.
Abstract:: Background: The Oregon Wrestling Weight Monitoring Program establishes the athlete’s minimum wrestling weight (MW) for the season. This program specifies the wrestler’s maximum weight loss rate and was implemented in order to reduce unhealthy weight-cutting behaviors commonly practiced by wrestlers. Aims: (1) To compare differences in percent body fat (%BF)...
