  • AG 07-22-07 Interview with Jennifer Pittman

    Creator:
    Gordon, Allegra
    Abstract:
    I interviewed Jennifer while the Staubs were having a BBQ for their new neighbors. She is a student at OIT in Klamath and home for the summer in Lakeview. She seemed happy to do the interview and was a valuable resource on account of her being the only one I...

  • Measuring in situ reductive dechlorination rates in trichloroethene-contaminated groundwater

    Creator:
    Hageman, Kimberly J.
    Abstract:
    Trichloroethene (TCE) is the most frequently detected organic contaminant in groundwater, is classified as a probable human carcinogen, and exhibits toxicological effects on the human endocrine, immune, developmental, and reproductive systems. While significant research efforts have been devoted to the development of strategies for remediating TCE-contaminated groundwater, their advancement is...

  • Fluorinated and deuterated surrogates for quantifying microbial transformation of chlorinated ethenes and ethanes in anaerobic groundwater

    Creator:
    Ennis, Elliot G.
    Abstract:
    Chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) such as vinyl chloride (VC) and 1,-2 dichioroethane (DCA), are wide-spread groundwater pollutants found at many contaminated field sites around the world. Quantitative tools are needed to determine the in situ rates of VC and DCA transformation to ethene in contaminated groundwater. The objective of this...

  • Quantitative determination of emerging contaminants, solvent stabilizers and fullerene nanomaterials, in biological and environmental systems

    Creator:
    Isaacson, Carl W.
    Abstract:
    To determine the impact of emerging environmental contaminants on human and environmental health, quantitative analytical methods are required. Analysis of emerging contaminants is hampered by their widely varying physical-chemical properties. Therefore quantitative analytical methods must be developed to determine the behavior of emerging contaminants in environmental systems. A quantitative analytical...

  • Quantifying in situ β-glucosidase and phosphatase activity in groundwater

    Creator:
    Radakovich, Karen M
    Abstract:
    Enzymes play an important role in the environment, they breakdown natural-occurring and anthropogenic molecules so that they can be transported into cells and utilized. Enzyme assays are routinely used in soil science and oceanography to measure the activities of specific processes and to serve as general indicators of microbial activity....

  • Measuring in situ biotransformation in BTEX-contaminated groundwater

    Creator:
    Alumbaugh, Robert E.
    Abstract:
    Benzylsuccinate (BSA), methylbenzylsuccinate (methylBSA), and ethylbenzylsuccinate (ethylBSA) are unambiguous anaerobic biotransformation products from toluene, xylenes, and ethylbenzene decay, respectively, and may be used to indicate intrinsic bioremediation is occurring at hydrocarbon-contaminated sites. In order to improve upon current methods that detect and quantify anaerobic hydrocarbon metabolites in field samples, solid-phase-extraction...

  • In situ transformation of toluene and xylene to benzylsuccinic acid analogs in contaminated groundwater

    Creator:
    Reusser, Dominik E.
    Abstract:
    The rate of removal of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and the xylene isomers (BTEX) from contaminated groundwater is needed to design remediation processes. Benzylsuccinic acid (BSA) and methyl-benzylsuccinic acid (methyl BSA) are unambiguous metabolites of anaerobic BTEX biodegradation. An analytical method for quantitative determination of BSA in groundwater samples was developed....

  • Large volume (1,800 µL) injection HPLC/MS/MS for the quantitative determination of illicit drugs and human urinary biomarkers in municipal wastewater

    Creator:
    Chiaia Hernandez, Aurea C.
    Abstract:
    A sensitive, selective, rapid analytical method based on large-volume injection (LVI) liquid chromatography/ tandem mass spectrometry was developed using commercially-available hardware that eliminates the need for either off-line or on-line solid phase extraction. Centrifugation followed by the direct injection of 1,800 µL was used for the quantification of illicit drugs,...

  • The effects of Phytophthora ramorum infection on hydraulic conductivity and tylosis formation in tanoak sapwood

    Creator:
    Collins, Bradley R.
    Abstract:
    Tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus), along with some other members of Fagaceae, are susceptible to sudden oak death caused by the oomycete Phytophthora ramorum. Symptoms of the disease include dying crowns, bleeding cankers, and eventually death of infected trees. The cause of mortality is not well understood, but recent research indicates that...

    Abstract:
    In 7 composite stories--shifting from the roads of Southern Colorado neighborhoods, the fields and unpaved roads of Northern New Mexico, and the streets of Culver City, California--Penitence follows Relles Ortiz and the bleak peripheral existence of the voiceless suburban people living in disorder and disorientation within the harshness of their...
