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...

Correlation Between Fine Particulate Matter and Traffic Type and Density in Curitiba, Brazil

Creator:: Fantoni, Costanza
Abstract:: Traffic exhaust is an important source of air pollution. This exposure assessment study examined traffic related air pollution in Curitiba, Brazil, and is particularly relevant due to 75% of the population using diesel public transportation. Traffic density was tabulated, and vehicle-type was distinguished based on their fuel type (diesel or...

Displacement-based fluorescent microRNA biosensors : design principles and analytical metrics

Creator:: Larkey, Nicholas E.
Abstract:: One post-transcriptional mechanism that regulates the progression of cancer and other diseases involves small 22-23 nucleotide sequences called microRNA (miR). Early detection of small changes in concentration of these biomarkers holds potential to diagnose diseases at their earliest stages. Use of current nucleic-acid based biosensors, like molecular beacons, for in...

Structure-property Relationships of Transition Metal Oxides Containing Precious Metals

Creator:: Hapuraja Pathirannehelage, Vidhara H. P.
Abstract:: This dissertation presents a study of structure-property relationships within 3d/4d metal oxides containing precious metals through detailed structure refinements using high-resolution neutron and X-ray diffraction data along with exploration of the resultant properties. Oxides of 4d or 5d transition metals tend to show new topological phases due to significant spin-orbit...

Bioprospecting the Chemical Diversity of Plant-associated Fungi

Creator:: González-Montiel, Gisela Abigail
Abstract:: Fungi have long been used for discovery of new chemical scaffolds. In the clinical setting, the fungal natural products penicillin, statins, and cyclosporine have revolutionized medicine to treat diseases and infections. In the environment, fungal natural products have been used as herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides to protect crops, livestock, and...

X-ray structure studies of oriented phospholipid multilayers

Creator:: Lytz, Robert Keith
Abstract:: Lamellar x-ray diffraction was studied from thin films of L-α-1,2-dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL) and a 1:1 mixture (BrDPL) of L-α-l-palmitoyl-2-(9- bromopaimitoyl) lecithin and its 10-bromo analog. The specimens had high lamellar order, with an upper bound on the mosaicity of 6 mrad (0.4°) for DPL and BrDPL. With various water contents,...

A study of new optical materials I. Crystal-chemical development of new optical frequency converters II. New hosts for Cr3+ luminescence and lasing

Creator:: Schaffers, Kathleen I.
Abstract:: The emphasis of this work has been in two areas of optical materials - the crystal-chemical development of new optical frequency converters and the synthesis and study of new hosts for Cr³⁺ luminescence and lasing. A simple method has been developed to identify promising frequency-doubling materials containing triangular oxoanions by...

Development of novel analytical methods to detect emerging contaminants in aqueous environmental matrices using large-volume injection

Creator:: Backe, Will J.
Abstract:: It is the responsibility of humans, as environmental stewards, to monitor our impact on the environment so that efforts can be made to remediate the effects of our actions and change behaviors. To better understand our environmental footprint, sensitive and simple analytical methods are needed to quantify the contaminants that...
