Resistance to Schistosoma mansoni is correlated with the number of spreading granulocytes in Biomphalaria glabrata

Creator:: Callahan, Piera M., Larson, Maureen K., Bender, Randall C., and Bayne, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Molluscan internal defenses rely heavily on circulating hemocytes. In most cases, encounters with large foreign bodies result in recognition by hemocytes followed by spreading of these defense cells over the object’s surface. The resulting encapsulation concentrates the force of the hemocytes’ assault on the foreign object. B. glabrata snail lines...

Are they what they eat? A stable GIT microbiome characterized in P. resecata

Creator:: Gustafson, Tarah N.
Abstract:: Intertidal herbivores, such as isopods, help regulate and contribute to nutrient cycling and organic carbon flow through the trophic levels in estuaries and coastal ecosystems. Though much is known about the microbiomes of macrophyte leaves that serve as the primary food source for isopods, and (to a lesser extent) the...

Dielectric Properties of Perovskite Ceramics Based on BaTiO3 and Bi(Mg1/2Ti1/2)O3

Creator:: Sundahl, Christopher S.
Abstract:: The properties of (1-x)BaTiO3-xBi(Mg1/2Ti1/2)O3 (BT-BMT) ceramics were fabricated from reagent-grade ceramic powders by solid-state methods and investigated for solubility, relative permittivity, dielectric loss, polarization, and electromechanical strain. The solubility limit was found to be between x = 0.3 and 0.4. Ba-deficient samples were fabricated, corresponding to stable single-phase compositions; these...

Investigation of MoS2 with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

Creator:: Dardzinski, Derek P.
Abstract:: Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has potential applications as a low-cost catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Defects on MoS2, such as edge sites and sulfur vacancies, are known to be the major active sites for HER. Controlling the formation of these defects allows for the enhancement in reactivity of MoS2...

Thermoelectric Characterization of SiliconWafers and Cu₁₂Sb₄S₁₃ Variant Thin Films

Creator:: Snyder, Rodney Austin
Abstract:: The Van der Pauw method for transport measurements of conductivity and carrier concentration were tested on indium-tin-oxide (ITO) films and silicon wafers, and then implemented on Cu10xAgxZn2Sb4S13 thin films. ITO was used as a test case for high temperature transport measurements because it a well characterized semi-metal. The mobility of...

Anaerobic Dehalogenation of Trichloroethene by Encapsulated Dehalococcoides mccartyi

Creator:: Lukens, Eileen P.
Abstract:: Chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) like trichloroethene (TCE) were mostly used to replace drying cleaning fluids which contained hydrocarbons like benzene, and were highly flammable. Through improper disposal, storage, and spills, TCE and its downstream products, like cis-dichloroethene (cDCE) and vinyl chloride (VC), leached into groundwater and threaten human and environmental...

Hacking RFID Tags to Produce Economical Soil Moisture Sensors

Creator:: Stoddard, Brett S.
Abstract:: Currently available soil moisture sensors have intrinsic limitations that limit their adoption by industry. Depending on the technology, these limitations may include high costs, battery requirements, precice manual installation, high cost, and/or constrictive legislation that regulates their use. A passive soil moisture sensing system based around RFID technology would allay...

Using Community Voice to Build Trust in State Systems

Creator:: Yasui, Kendra M.
Abstract:: The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of community trust in state systems. Consideration of community concerns by public health agencies may help to establish more equitable policies, engaging community in emergency response and promoting inclusivity and trust. This paper outlines varying definitions of trust, then describes key considerations in...

Environmental Transformations in Hydrophobicity of TiO2 P-25 Nanoparticles in Alsea River Waters

Creator:: Boenisch, Kylie
Abstract:: Hydrophobic titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) are prevalent in industry and manufacturing. They are known for their white pigmentation, are found in sunscreens, paints, cosmetics, and are frequently used in wastewater treatment. Understanding the physicochemical properties of TiO2 P-25 NPs, such as hydrophobicity, are essential when determining their fate, transport,...

Electrical Transport Measurements Show Intrinsic Doping and Hysteresis in Graphene p-n Junction Devices

Creator:: Plunkett, Garrett R.
Abstract:: Understanding the electrical transport properties of graphene provides a basis for determining its future as a potential semiconducting device that can be used for the next generation of transistors and photodetectors. Graphene p-n junctions can also function as field effect transistors, and thus are a logical starting point for I-V...

Gene Structure and Expression of the Rice S-Domain Kinase (SD-RLK) Gene Subfamily

Creator:: Dikeman, Daemon
Abstract:: The S-domain subfamily of receptor-like kinases (SD-RLKs) in plants is poorly characterized and the majority of genes have unknown functions. The goal of this study was to study the expansion of rice (Oryza sativa) SD-RLK subfamily, and characterize gene and protein structure and expression of its members using publicly available...

Investigating the Interplay of Age, Zinc Status, and the Gut Microbiome on Gut Health

Creator:: Vasudevan, Anusha
Abstract:: Zinc is an important micronutrient involved in many cellular processes, including those part of immune function; however, about 15% of the US population is at risk for marginal zinc deficiency. This can lead to immune system complications including the generation of inflammatory cytokines. Aging is another factor that worsens the...
