Chromatophores as cell-based biosensors for the detection of chemically and biologically toxic substances

Creator:: Dukovcic, Stephanie R.
Abstract:: Cell-based biosensors are function-based detectors that use the physiological response of a living cell to sense biologically stimulating agents. This emerging technology extends the application of current detection methods by reporting on the toxicity of a sample and the potential to cause disease. Previously, Betta splendens erythrophores have been described...

Managing adult hatchery summer steelhead for a recreational fishery with reduced hatchery and wild interactions

Creator:: Schemmel, Eva M.
Abstract:: Hatcheries whose purpose is to provide for a recreational fishery must minimize impacts on wild fishes. Management to reduce hatchery and wild interactions is especially important on river systems that contain Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed species. I examined adult hatchery summer steelhead, Oncorhynchus mykiss, behavior, current management and a...

Motivation and engagement in school among immigrant Latino middle school students

Creator:: Knudson-Martin, John
Abstract:: This study investigated how a minority population of Latino/a immigrant children attending a middle school in the Pacific Northwest made sense of engaging with school and school mathematics. A cross disciplinary theoretical framework was used to examine how individual student motivation is impacted by the social context in which the...

Effect of pharmaceuticals and natural products on multidrug resistance mediatedtransport in Caco-2 and MDCKII-MDR1 drug transport models

Creator:: Fan, Ying
Abstract:: This thesis details my investigation of some pharmaceuticals and natural products on the transport of drugs which are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), such as cyclosporin A (CSA) and digoxin by using Caco-2 and MDCKII-MDR1 drug transport models. Three objectives were performed to address this goal. The first objective was to...

Predators associated with hemlock woolly adelgid (Hemiptera: Adelgidae) infested western hemlock in the Pacific Northwest.

Creator:: Kohler, Glenn R.
Abstract:: The hemlock woolly adelgid, Adelges tsugae, is causing widespread mortality of eastern hemlock, Tsuga canadensis, in the eastern United States. In the West, A. tsugae causes negligible damage to western hemlock, Tsuga heterophylla. Host tolerance traits and presence of endemic predators may be contributing to the relative tolerance of western...

Solving algebra word problems : solution strategies Thai students used and potential connections with teachers' instructional strategies

Creator:: Swangrojn, Porntip
Abstract:: The main purpose of this study was to investigate and describe strategies that Thai ninth grade students use to solve algebra word problems. The second purpose of this study was to investigate teachers' instruction during word problem solving lessons. Three mathematics teachers and one of each of their classes participated...

Phenotypic variation in the sexual attractiveness pheromone of the red-sided garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis

Creator:: LeMaster, Michael P.
Abstract:: Pheromones are chemical cues produced by organisms that affect the behavior and/or physiology of conspecifics. The orchestration of reproductive behaviors in many animals depends on the expression of sex pheromones. In insects, intraspecific variation in sex pheromone expression is commonly observed and often influences social interactions between individuals. To what...

Xanthohumol, a flavonoid from hops (Humulus lupulus) : in vitro and in vivo metabolism, antioxidant properties of metabolites, and risk assessment in humans

Creator:: Yilmazer, Meltem
Abstract:: Reported here is an investigation to determine the in vitro and in vivo metabolism of xanthohumol (XN). XN is the major prenylated flavonoid of the female inflorescences (cones) of the hop plant (Humulus lupulus). It is also a constituent of beer, the major dietary source of prenylated flavonoids. Recent studies...

Conservation of arthropod natural enemies in broccoli with relay strip-cropping

Creator:: McGrath, Daniel M. (Daniel Morton)
Abstract:: Relay strip-cropping combines two vegetation management tactics, under-sowing and strip-management. In this study conducted from 1994 though 1997, a cover crop seed-mixture containing oats (Avena sativa L. var. "Monida"), common vetch (Vicia sativa L.), red clover (Trifolium pratense L.), annual ryegrass (Lolium multflorum Lam.), and buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) was...
