Mass transfer of urea, creatinine and vitamin B-12 in a microchannel based membrane separation unit

Creator:: Warner-Tuhy, Alana
Abstract:: Micro energy and chemical systems (MECS) are microfluidic systems where energy and chemical processes can be intensified by decreasing the characteristic length. This project focused on bulk fluid processing using MECS technology to intensify the mass transport of a dialyzer. The objective of this project was to design a model...

Quantifying nisin adsorption behavior at pendant polyethylene oxide brush layers

Creator:: Dill, Justen K.
Abstract:: A more quantitative understanding of peptide loading and release from polyethylene oxide (PEO) brush layers will provide direction for development of new strategies for drug storage and delivery. The antimicrobial peptide nisin shows potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria including the most prevalent implant-associated pathogens, its mechanism of action minimizes the...

Studies of Chitin Nanofiber Production and Photoluminescent Biosilica from Diatoms with and without Germanium

Creator:: LeDuff, Paul A.
Abstract:: There is significant interest in harnessing the biosynthetic capacities of photosynthetic diatom microalgae for the production of unique bioinspired nanomaterials. Specifically, this research focuses on understanding the photoluminescent properties of diatom biosilica and β-chitin nanofiber production in diatoms. Diatoms are single-celled microalgae that possess intricately patterned biosilica shells called, frustules....

Analysis of Chemical Leaching from Common Consumer Plastic Bottles Under High Stress Conditions

Creator:: Dornath, Paul John
Abstract:: There has been much controversy in recent years over the leaching of chemicals from plastic water bottles. In this study, two of the most common plastics used in water bottles, polyethylene terphthalate (PETE) and polycarbonate (PC) were studied. The leaching of the chemical bisphenol-A (BPA) from polycarbonate (Nalgene ™, Camelback...

Probing Structure, Selectivity, and Orientation of Biomolecules to Cell Membranes by Sum Frequency Generation

Creator:: Golbek, Thaddeus W.
Abstract:: Cell membranes act as barriers against unwanted movement of ions and biomolecules and are complex surfaces littered with protein channels, ion channels, cholesterol, and a myriad of different proteins. While this surface is extremely well studied, there is still much we do not know. The work in this dissertation demonstrates...

Characterization of CoGe Thin Films and Powders

Creator:: Pfau, Andrew James
Abstract:: Cobalt germanides have been widely studied as semiconductor contact materials, but recent theoretical studies suggest that they may also be excellent catalysts for methane steam reforming with stabilities and activities comparable to noble metal catalysts. In order to study the catalytic activity of cobalt germanides, it is critical to first...

Continuous flow synthesis of lead sulfide and copper indium diselenide nanocrystals

Creator:: Knapp, Michael W.
Abstract:: The use of size and shape tunable quantum confinement nanocrystals has many potential applications for use in semiconductors, optics and sensors. The synthesis of lead sulfide (PbS) and copper indium diselenide (CuInSe₂) nanoparticles are of particular interest for use in semiconductor, optoelectronics and bio-medical applications. The continuous synthesis of lead...

Synthesis and evaluation of PEO-coated materials for microchannel-based hemodialysis

Creator:: Heintz, Keely
Abstract:: The marked increase in surface-to-volume ratio associated with microscale devices for hemodialysis leads to problems with hemocompatibility and blood flow distribution that are more challenging to manage than those encountered at the conventional scale. In this work, stable surface modifications with pendant polyethylene oxide (PEO) chains were produced on polycarbonate...
