Nonmedical prescription stimulant use: exploring student perceptions and university response

Creator:: Foss, Austyn
Abstract:: This thesis explores trends and perceptions surrounding nonmedical use of prescription stimulants by university students throughout the United States. Furthermore, this study evaluated how universities in Oregon have responded to increased rates of nonmedical prescription stimulant use on campuses across the country. The following research questions are addressed: 1) What...

Partial purification and properties of a columnaricin isolated from the myxobacterium Chondrococcus columnaris

Creator:: Needleman, David Sol
Abstract:: Of the 14 strains of Chondrococcus columnaris examined, 4 produced antagonistic substances that inhibited the growth of other strains of this species. The antagonistic substance produced by strain 3-P63-12 was examined in greater detail. Since the inhibitory substance had an extremely narrow spectrum of activity, and was not transmissible in...

Structural and functional dissection of the vaccinia virus thymidine kinase enzyme

Creator:: Black, Margaret E.
Abstract:: Thymidine kinase is a key enzyme in the nucleotide salvage pathway, catalyzing the production of dTMP from thymidine and ATP. In order to identify the structural features of the TK protein and/or primary amino acid sequences which contribute to the catalytic and regulatory activities of this enzyme, an in vitro...

Anaerobic biodegradation of the cyclic nitramines, RDX and HMX, by ovine ruminal microbes

Creator:: Eaton, Hillary L.
Abstract:: Cyclic nitramines released into all environmental compartments through anthropogenic activities are toxic and possibly carcinogenic and mutagenic. Soils on military ranges, located throughout the world in various climatic regions and close to human activities, are especially susceptible to cyclic nitramine contamination. The properties of soils on military ranges will directly...

Assessing disease impacts of hatcheries on downstream salmonids in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Jakaitis, Michelle
Abstract:: Hatcheries are often perceived as a source of pathogen amplification, potentially increasing disease risk to free-ranging populations; at the same time, free-ranging fishes may introduce pathogens into hatcheries through untreated water sources. Many pathogens exist naturally within the environment (with the exception of introduced pathogens) and the presence of a...

Microbiology of basalts targeted for deep geological carbon sequestration : field observations and laboratory experiments

Creator:: Lavalleur, Heather J.
Abstract:: With rising concentrations of CO₂ in the Earth's atmosphere causing concern about climate change, many solutions are being presented to decrease emissions. One of the proposed solutions is to sequester excess CO₂ in geological formations such as basalt. The deep subsurface is known to harbor much of the microbial biomass...

Evaluation of peptide phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers as a novel antibiotic therapy

Creator:: Kaller, Margo
Abstract:: Peptide-phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PPMOs) are synthetic DNA mimics that bind and silence gene targets. Through designing PPMOs that silence essential or resistance genes in pathogens, these antisense oligomers could be utilized as novel antimicrobials. Towards this end, my thesis employed minimum inhibitory concentration assays (MICs) to identify PPMOs capable of...
