Utilization of ground peanut husk as an alternative fiber material for particleboard

Creator:: Newton, Jacob A.
Abstract:: This research examined the potential for using peanut husk as a fiber alternative to wood in the production of melamine-formaldehyde (MF) particleboard. MF resin was used to produce panels with one, three, six, nine or 12 percent resin contents. Modulus of Rupture (MOR), Modulus of Elasticity (MOE), Internal Bond (IB)...

Comparison of Experimentally-determined and Model-estimated Attachment Efficiency for Predicting Nanoparticle Aggregation

Creator:: Kennard, Jasmin J.
Abstract:: The widespread use of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in industrial applications and consumer products makes their release to the environment inevitable. Understanding the aggregation behavior of ENPs is crucial to understanding their fate, transport and toxicology in aquatic systems. This study investigated the comparability of experimentally-determined and model-estimated attachment efficiencies for...

Descriptive epidemiology of consumption of unpasteurized dairy products, Oregon, 2011-2016

Creator:: Pearson, Kaitlyn
Abstract:: Consumption of raw dairy products has been linked to diseases such as Salmonella, Campylobacter, E. coli and Listeria. Current retail sale of raw milk in Oregon is limited to disease-free goat or sheep milk. Raw cow milk is legally for sale on farms with less than three cows. Consumers have...

Fighting the global cancer burden: a promising molecular based cancer therapy

Creator:: Liu, Selina Qiuying
Abstract:: Glioblastoma, which occurs in adults primarily between ages of 40 to 70 years and accounts for 15% of all brain tumors, is a devastating diagnosis with a median survival rate of less than a year. Invasiveness of glioblastoma cells significantly reduces the effectiveness of current treatments, highlighting the importance of...

Quantification of C60 Particle Characteristics in Environmentally Relevant Aqueous Systems

Creator:: Adlong, Michelle R.
Abstract:: The production of the fullerene C60 and its emerging applications in consumer products imply its ultimate release to the environment. Due to the molecule’s relative novelty, the aqueous characteristics of C60 have not been fully assessed, though it may potentially harm human or ecological health. C60 is highly insoluble in...

The Effect of Combining Insecticide Treated Nets and Indoor Residual Spraying for Vector Control of Malaria: A Systematic Review

Creator:: Feng, Jonathan
Abstract:: Throughout a large portion of our planet, malaria has been nearly eradicated or reduced to levels that are highly manageable, and many countries possess the means to effectively treat the disease. However, many areas of the world, such as Sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia, are still heavily burdened by malaria....

Reorientation in Alternative Break Trips

Creator:: Phillips, Caitlin Patricia
Abstract:: When a student participates in a service break trip, a process called reorientation occurs after the trip is over, when the student is trying to connect what they’ve learned on the trip to their normal lives. The objective of this project was to explore the concepts of volunteerism, community service,...

Characterization of Biochar for Use in Treating Copper (II) Polluted Stormwater

Creator:: Gerould, Joy-Marie Danielle
Abstract:: Recent studies have discovered that salmon, specifically juvenile Coho Salmon, have their olfactory senses inhibited by the presence of low concentrations of copper concentrations at very low concentrations. Much of this copper is deposited on roadways by car brake pads during their use. The copper is carried with stormwater into...

Comparison of Aqueous Cu⁺², Pb⁺², and Zn⁺² Adsorption with Pyrolyzed Hazelnut Shells and a Commercially Produced High-Carbon Fly Ash

Creator:: Steigerwald, Jessica Marie
Abstract:: Contamination of stormwater with Cu⁺², Pb⁺², and Zn⁺² has become an important issue with recognition of the neurotoxic effects of these metal ions on aquatic life. Low levels of aqueous Cu⁺² disrupt olfactory functioning in endangered Pacific Northwest salmon, decreasing their ability to avoid predation. One common solution is stormwater...

Whole system perspective : Steelhead, Onchorhynchus mykiss, glutathione s-transferase as a biomarker of chlorpyrifos exposure

Creator:: Pecore, Rachael G.
Abstract:: Organophosphate insecticides may produce sublethal, adverse effects on salmonid growth, reproduction, maturation, swimming, and feeding. Chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate insecticide, was detected by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality in the Hood River and tributaries during March 1999 at levels exceeding state water quality standards in the range of 0.011-0.482 μg/L....
