Gold Nanoparticles as Thiophenol Detection Probes

Creatore:: Pond, Emily
Abstract:: The development of simple, rapid, and sensitive methods for thiophenol detection is of great importance in various fields, including environmental monitoring and food quality. Here, we present a novel approach for the colorimetric detection of thiophenols using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as the sensing platform. AuNPs aggregate in the presence of...

Generating Communication -Deficient and -Intensified Neurons to Determine Effects on Multicellular Information Networks

Creatore:: Starman, Alia
Abstract:: Multicellular coordination in response to environmental stimuli is essential in biology, and this coordination is often achieved by a division of labor to establish leaders and followers in a cell population. This is called emergent leadership, but how a cell adopts its role and effectively exchanges information with peers is...

Kinetics of plankton respiration across gradient of anoxic to oxic conditions

Creatore:: Jayawickrama, Clare
Abstract:: Ocean deoxygenation is predicted to increase in severity over the next few decades, posing a threat to marine life and fishing economies. Improved predictions of ocean deoxygenation depend on a better understanding of the biogeochemical mechanisms that underly this process. Within the realm of biogeochemical mechanisms, this project specifically investigated...

Optimization of NH2-MIL-88B (Fe) for reactive oxygen species generation

Creatore:: Shotton, Lewis
Abstract:: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising candidates in novel cancer therapies due to their unique properties, including high surface area, tunable crystal size, and exposed metal ion active sites for catalysis. The MOF NH2-MIL-88B has shown potential use in cancer theranostics. Its open metal active sites catalyze the reduction...

Environmental DNA reveals cryptic parasite species and gives insight into their fish hosts

Creatore:: Phillips, Kyle
Abstract:: Ceratonova shasta is a myxozoan fish parasite that impacts hatchery and wild populations of salmon and trout in the Pacific Northwest. Levels of the parasite in river water can be effectively monitored through direct filtration of parasite spores from water, extraction of total "environmental DNA" (eDNA), then quantitative polymerase chain...

Chandler Loop Model for the Development of Dynamic Hemocompatibility Assays

Creatore:: Hasbrook, AnneMarie V.
Abstract:: A common issue with extracorporeal medical devices is blood clotting due to bio-incompatibility. Systemic anticoagulants are often prescribed to mitigate the coagulation issues. However, such drugs can lead to further complications, for example hemorrhaging. One solution to improve the hemocompatibility of blood-contacting medical devices are biomaterials, such as slippery liquid...

Design and Evaluation of a Vibrotactile Sensory Feedback System for Prostheses

Creatore:: Thurston, Tegan J.
Abstract:: Loss of a limb can severely impact everyday way of life. Prosthetics provide a way to return functionality to the user and improve quality of life. However, most prosthetic systems currently available in the market lack sensory feedback making them comparatively more difficult to use resulting in prosthetic abandonment. Therefore,...

Tendon Cell Viability: Validation of an Ex Vivo Model to Examine the Cellular Characteristics of Tendinopathy

Creatore:: MacGregor, Ellie
Abstract:: Tendinopathy is characterized by injured or inflamed tendons and can be caused by long durations of strain or excessive tension being applied. Current treatments for tendinopathy may include physical therapy and pain management. However, these methods may not heal the tendon or restore it to its original healthy state. New...

Coaction of a Biomedical Device and Physiological Model for Thalassemia Therapy Modeling: Methods and Future Approaches

Creatore:: Hull, Darke
Abstract:: The Jovanovic lab at Oregon State University (OSU) is developing iCore, a versatile blood processing platform which leverages microfluidic process intensification via increased mass transfer efficiency and decreased device footprint with the goal of creating a portable, wearable device. One application of iCore is for the treatment of hyperferremia resulting...

Mapping Spine Surgical Outcomes and Risk Factors

Creatore:: Hernandez, Phillip A.
Abstract:: The majority of people suffer from back pain at some point in their lives. Back pain is the leading cause of disability globally, ahead of 290 other conditions1. Over one million people in the United States receive spine surgery annually2. This thesis looked at five standard surgical procedures performed on...
