Incorporation of aerodynamic and boundary layer resistances in determining initial evaporation rates of pesticides from turf grass

Creator:: Conway, Michael
Abstract:: Evaporative loss rates of pesticides, following application to turfgrass, were measured using the Backward-Time Lagrangian stochastic Dispersion model (Flesch, Wilson, Journal of Applied Meteorology, 34, pp. 1320-1332. All pesticides were applied to a 22.8 m x 22.8 m orchard ryegrass turf plot near Corvallis, Oregon. Solar radiation, ambient temperature, surface...

Understanding polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) toxicity and inflammation in human bronchial epithelial cells

Creator:: Valdez, Teresa
Abstract:: There is increased emphasis on understanding cumulative risk from the combined effects of chemical and non-chemical stressors as it relates to public health. Recent animal studies have identified pulmonary inflammation as a possible modifier and risk factor for chemical toxicity in the lung after exposure to inhaled pollutants; however, little...

Impact of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons on Barrier Function Toxicity in 3D Lung Model from Normal and Asthmatic Donor Cells

Creator:: Huynh, Celine T.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are known to cause adverse health effects in the human lung. Here, we evaluated biomarkers relevant for PAH toxicity in a 3D human primary bronchial epithelial cell (HBEC) model collected from normal and asthmatic donors. We previously found that PAHs decrease cellular barrier function integrity, which...

Identifying microRNAs by automated phylogenetic and structural analysis

Creator:: Smith, Daniel P.
Abstract:: Motivation: It can take considerable amounts of time and effort to use existing computational tools to analyze a small RNA sequence for the purpose of determining if it is characteristic of microRNA. It is similarly tedious to search for homologs to known microRNA sequences in the rapidly growing collection of...

Addressing ALS: Corroborating the Methodology of Studying the P2X7R Complex

Creator:: Veytsman, Edward Y.
Abstract:: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons in the motor cortex and spinal cord. Recent evidence suggests that the purine receptor P2X7 (P2X7R) plays a central role in the pathology of ALS. Previous research indicates that P2X7R activation by oxidatively modified heat shock protein 90...

Carbon isotopes show snowpack acts as a valuable moisture subsidy to mountain forests in the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Ratcliff, Christopher J.
Abstract:: This study examines climatological influences, particularly that of snowpack, on tree growth and stable carbon isotope discrimination (Δ¹³C) from ~1980 to 2013 at two sites located in the upper reaches of the McKenzie River watershed of the Oregon Cascade Mountains. We tested the use of Δ¹³C values from latewood, corroborated...

Metagenomics Analysis Reveal Host-Microbe Interactions in Cervical Cancer

Creator:: Lam, Khiem C.
Abstract:: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide. Recently it has been shown that microbiota play a role in some types of cancer. Therefore, to understand whether microbes contribute in any way to the development and progress of cervical cancer, we investigated the cervical microbiome via analysis...

Immunohistochemistry Studies of Tumor Necrosis Factor Αlpha and Interferon Gamma Expression in Pseudocapillaria tomentosa Infected and Uninfected Zebrafish

Creator:: Lo, Lalee C.
Abstract:: Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF α) and interferon gamma (IFN γ) were initially recognized as inflammatory mediators produced by immune cells in response to infectious agents or foreign material. (1,5) However, over the past decade much research in mammalian species has indicated that these proteins also play key roles in...

Recycling Potential of Sequential Hydrothermal Liquefaction Aqueous Co-Product Using Chlorella vulgaris

Creator:: Wallach, William J.
Abstract:: Bio-oil from hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) represents a promising fuel source due to large higher heating values and compatibility with current energy infrastructure. For bio-oil production to become commercially viable, novel methods of co-product recycling must be explored. The aims of this study were to culture Chlorella vulgaris, a common HTL...
