Isolation and Identification of Indole Metabolites from Pseudomonas fluorescens NZI7

Creator:: Vergis, John M.
Abstract:: Pseudomonas fluorescens NZI7 was first isolated from a New Zealand mushroom farm in 2001. This Gram-negative bacteria can cause brown blotch disease in the basidiomycete mushroom Agaricus bisporus. P. fluorescens NZI7 can also repel grazing by the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, a natural predator of P. fluorescens NZI7. Potentially implicated in...

A Dive into the Pacific Fish Microbiome: Exploration of Antibiotics from a Unique Ecosystem

Creator:: Austin, Molly C.
Abstract:: With the rise of resistant bacterial pathogens, currently prescribed antibiotics are rendered useless. In recent years, marine natural products (MNPs) have emerged as novel sources for drug leads. The ocean is a complex environment where marine animals cohabitate with many, and sometimes harmful microorganisms and viruses, but resist infections. Developed...

Bioactivity Screening and Gene Activation Strategies in Fungi

Creator:: Coddington, Nathan C.
Abstract:: Natural products from plants, bacteria, and fungi play an important role in society. Over the last 35 years, natural products and their derivatives have inspired over 60% of all FDA approved small-molecule drugs, and are among the top prescribed therapeutics.1-2 Fleming’s discovery of the fungal antibiotic penicillin started the “Golden...

Evaluation of Oxidation Reduction Potential in Metabolic Syndrome Subjects Compared with Matched Normal Subjects

Creator:: Cobb, Tora Jean
Abstract:: This study was conducted to assess whether healthy adults compared with those with Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) have different mean oxidative-reductive potentials. Static oxidation-reduction potentials and capacity oxidation reduction potentials (sORP and cORP, respectively) were measured in plasma samples. The RedoxSYS® measures sORP in millivolts (mV), which is proportional to the...

Analysis of twentieth century apparel production compared to twenty-first century apparel production

Creator:: Baker, Kelly
Abstract:: Apparel fashion is a daily component of society that transcends generations and cultures. The purpose of my research was to analyze the garment structure and construction of two separate but comparable garments in style, function, and content - one from the 1910s and one from 2015. Using the New Brunswick...

Structural Similarities and Differences in Tropone and Tropolone: Gas-Phase Electron Diffraction Study

Creator:: Titus, Eric J.
Abstract:: The method of gas-phase electron diffraction is a very useful tool for determining the geometry of a molecule in the gas-phase to a high degree of accuracy. In this thesis, the structures of tropone and tropolone, which are similar molecules that are both based on a 7-carbon ring, were investigated...

Synthesis and SERS : Reproducible Nanostar Plasmons and a Study of Optical Enhancement

Creator:: Ramsey, Jacob D.
Abstract:: Gold nanostars are a relative newcomer to the nanoparticle scene, and their unique properties make them very desirable for spectroscopic applications. These nanoparticles, with their sharp tips, create electric field enhancements that interact with light in an advantageous way. This Thesis outlines our in-depth study of gold nanostar synthesis, the...

New Inorganic Pigments from Mineral Structures

Creator:: Schettini Mejia, Carlo A.
Abstract:: The discovery of new blue pigments is a field of great interest, as commercially available pigments present properties that make them undesirable such as poor sustainability, cost, and stability. By researching solid solutions with the melilite structure, we discovered a new solid solution Sr2Zn1-xNixGe2O7, with 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.6,...

Evaluation of Bacterial F1FO-ATPase Inhibitors for Synergistic Effects

Creator:: Heppe, Kenan G.
Abstract:: F1FO-ATP synthase targeting antimicrobials apoptolidin 1 (A1), (+)-erythromefloquine, and oligomycin were tested in vitro for synergistic minimum inhibitory concentrations against Staphylococcus aureus. Synergy was strictly defined as inhibition by at most 25% the MIC of each participating drug. Ampicillin, with an MIC of 0.8 ug/mL, served as a negative control....

A robust Mycobacterium smegmatis Assay for the Discovery of Anti-tubercular Metabolites from Soil Bacteria

Creator:: Chen, Kathryn P
Abstract:: Tuberculosis (TB) is a pressing global health issue with approximately one third of the world’s population infected by this bacterium. As one of the most dangerous infectious diseases, it has killed approximately 1.7 million people of all ages around the world per year (World Health Organization, 2016). Currently, several drugs...
