Interface Analysis of Titanium Dioxide and Graphene

Creator:: Frazier, Devon Paige
Abstract:: Titanium dioxide, in the anatase form, is a photocatalyst and has applications in water pollution reduction. Efficiency can be improved with a graphene substrate, which delays electron-hole recombination and may reduce the band gap. In this work, we determine if graphene can also act as a morphactant, changing the shape...

Determining and Characterizing the Efficacy of Superabsorbent Polymer for Wildfire Resistance Applications

Creator:: Kawasaki, Charles T.
Abstract:: Climate change is a pertinent issue causing an increase in the quantity and severity of wildfires. Current market solutions to protect homes from wildfires are expensive and do not always guarantee the safety of the home. Superabsorbent polymer (SAP) is a cross-linked polymer that can absorb over 100x its weight...

Effect of acupuncture on somatic cell count, milk ion conductivity, and milk serum enzyme concentrations in dairy cattle with subclinical mastitis

Creator:: Ryan, Elise L.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to determine if acupuncture can reduce bovine mammary inflammation. Lactating cows at the Oregon State University Dairy Research Center were selected based on Dairy Herd Improvement Association reports indicating a SCC >500,000 cells/mL. A California Mastitis Test (CMT) score of greater than one was...

Changes in Otolith Shape in Juvenile Chinook Salmon in Different Hatchery Rearing Conditions

Creator:: Ehrke, Melissa A.
Abstract:: The decline of the Chinook Salmon has been a mystery of recent years due to their decline. It has been speculated that wild origin salmon have more vigor and survivability than hatchery reared fish. This is thought to be due to rearing conditions, possibly affecting sensory organ development. The sensory...

Impact of Unfolded Protein Response, USP14, and NEDD8 Inhibitors Upon Antigen Presentation in SaI/Ak and 4T1 Tumor Cell Lines

Creator:: Godil, Jamila A.
Abstract:: Antigen presentation is a mechanism used by cells to present peptides on the cell surface. Peptides, derived from both viral or self-proteins are presented on the cell surface by MHC Class I molecules to be recognized and detected by cytotoxic T cells. T cells comprise the defense system to protect...

The Dental Fluoridation Potential of Drinking Water

Creator:: Renyer, Karissa N.
Abstract:: Water fluoridation is considered one of the top ten greatest health achievements of the twentieth century due to its effectiveness in reducing the prevalence of dental caries. However, despite extensive research on the subject, there is little information currently available about how the constituents of drinking water affect the uptake...

Differences in Societal and Behavioral Attitudes toward Skin Cancer between Japanese American and Japanese

Creator:: Nguyen, Vananh M.
Abstract:: The rate of melanoma among Asian American has been steadily increasing in the past five years, while in other Asian countries, such as Japan, the incident rate remains relatively the same. Does the culture and societal attitudes toward skin cancer make a difference in the incident rate of melanoma? This...

The Impact of Income Generating Programs at Tarangire National Park, Tanzania

Creator:: McDowell, Dylan
Abstract:: The newest pilot project at Tarangire National Park (TAR) is Income Generating Programs (IGP) where community groups organize themselves around an activity that earns income. TAR initiated the project by paying for ten members from each of the three existing community groups on the park’s northern end and fifteen members...
