  • Exploring maize pollen with microscopy: confocal, fluorescence and time-lapse imaging

    Creator:
    Hartman, Rogue D. J.
    Abstract:
    Pollen, the male product of the flower, is a crucial component in plant reproduction, as it transmits the sperm cells to the female structures, enabling fertilization and subsequent seed production. A major transition of the pollen life cycle, triggered upon pollination of female floral tissue, is from a dormant pollen...

  • Empathy-Induced Distress: A Psychophysiological Approach

    Creator:
    Karabinas, Isabella M.
    Abstract:
    Empathy is considered a significant motivator of prosocial behavior. Increasing evidence suggests that feelings of personal distress associated with empathy may be stronger or weaker according to the form of perspective taking that an empathizer utilizes. The aim of the present study was to further quantify the stress consequences and...

  • Visualizing Internalization of Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles by Canine Osteosarcoma Cells

    Creator:
    Bilal, Jumanah
    Abstract:
    Osteosarcoma (OSA) is a primary malignant bone tumor sarcoma that occurs in dogs as well as people and has aggressive biologic behavior with devastating consequences. Because of the similarities in morphology and prognosis, OSA in dogs represents an effective model for the equivalent disease in humans. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)...

  • Investigation and Implementation of a Liquid Feeding System for the Apis mellifera Honey bee under Laboratory Conditions

    Creator:
    Meador, Brett W.
    Abstract:
    Studying honey bee behavior is a very important aspect of horticulture, especially in recent years as honey bee colonies face population decline, or colony collapse. While studying honey bees, researchers often keep honey bees in captivity, where it can be challenging to meet nutritional and hydration requirements using existing liquid...

  • Design and Fabrication of a Public Locker for Non-Motorized Watercraft

    Creator:
    Cordisco, Jonathan
    Abstract:
    Visitors to waterways need a way to securely lock up their non-motorized watercrafts to allow for exploration of the local area and communities. The Willamette Water Trail Steering committee recognized this problem and approached the Oregon State University Prototype Development lab to develop and fabricate a solution. The engineering design...

  • Design cycle models and knowledge management systems

    Creator:
    Popham, Kinsey
    Abstract:
    This thesis explores the relationship between design cycle models and knowledge management systems applied to various physical prototypes that the author developed from 2020 to 2023. The author walks through the process of prototyping a potty-training device in OSU’s Prototype Development Lab and an automated testing fixture for her Senior...

  • Opportunities and Limitations in Achieving Real-Time Observation of Soil Nitrate

    Creator:
    Auld, Ryan A.
    Abstract:
    There are many possible benefits that can arise from the ability to take real-time measurements of soil water nitrate concentrations in a field, from ecological to agricultural to industrial reasons. In order to achieve this, we adapted a NitraLED sensor with a ceramic porous cup in order to allow diffusion...

  • Decoding EEG Signals to Detect and Classify Hand Movement

    Creator:
    McGrath, Patrick
    Abstract:
    Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals have recently gained attention to classify associated hand movement. This is particularly useful for amputees with prostatic hands or people who are unable to move their hands voluntarily. Among the decoding algorithms used to classify hand movements are support vector machines and multilayer perceptron networks. In this...

  • Retention Capacity of Biochar Infiltration Columns for Escherichia coli

    Creator:
    Lesch, Samantha
    Abstract:
    With a growing demand for renewable sources of freshwater around the world, stormwater offers a potential solution. However, various pollutants can be present within stormwater, such as antibiotic-resistant bacteria, that present a danger to human health if stormwater is used for agricultural purposes. Biochar has the capability to remove bacteria...

  • A Partial Proof of Bertrand's Theorem

    Creator:
    Musgrove, John F.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, we provide a thorough proof of most of Bertrand's Theorem. Using Arnold's book "Mathematical methods of classical mechanics" as a backbone and calculus methods demonstrated by Jovanović in his article "A note on the proof of Bertrand's theorem," we show that for masses in a central field...
