Organic Semiconductors : Incorporating Xylindein into (Opto)Electronic Devices

Creator:

Rath, Jeremy J.

Abstract:

This research investigates the electronic properties of a fungi-derived pigment, xylindein as a novel sustainable material for organic electronics. Xylindein molecules were characterized in solution and in film. Absorption spectra and (photo)luminescence spectra were taken at various excitation wavelengths. Xylindein’s molecular properties were computed with the Gaussian 09 software suite....

Undergraduate Thesis
Matrix metalloproteinase type-2 and type-9 immunoexpression in bovine caruncular tissue at the time of calving, 2 hours post-calving, and 4 hours post-calving

Creator:

Gentle, Lauren and Kutzler, Michelle

Abstract:

As bovine parturition nears, the placentome undergoes changes that allow placental delivery within 12 hours after calving. These changes include the expression of enzymatic proteins (e.g. MMPs) within the placentome that are capable of breaking down collagen, allowing for the separation of the cotyledon from the caruncle. Dysregulation of either...
