Abstract:: Chlorinated ethenes are common groundwater contaminants that may be treated through in-situ bioremediation. Relationships between the reducing environment, available electron donors and acceptors, reaction kinetics, and microbial community composition must be further understood to successfully engineer remediation schemes in the complex subsurface environment. This thesis work investigated the effect of...

Abstract:: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a genetic inborn metabolic disorder which inhibits the functional production of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). It currently affects one in 15,000 Americans and is the most common amino acid metabolism error found in newborns. Individuals affected with PKU are incapable of metabolizing the amino acid, phenylalanine...
