  • Gold Nanostars: Spectroscopic and Physical Properties

    Creator:
    Zhou, Lixia
    Abstract:
    Tethering fluorophores on metal nanoparticles for metal enhanced fluorescence (MEF) has attracted a lot of attention from scientists interested in fluorescence based approaches. MEF has many benefits in fluorescence related techniques, because the analytical signal increases and enables potentially lower detection limits or better sensitivity. Many types of nanoparticles have...

  • Comprehensive, Low-Cost Wicking Microfluidic Analytical Devices for Clinical Diagnostics and Environmental Analysis

    Creator:
    Bandara, Gayan C.
    Abstract:
    Analytical techniques are utilized in a wide variety of applications. Traditionally, analytical measurements are achieved by trained personnel in a laboratory setting using expensive scientific instruments, which limits their applicability in resource-limited areas and point-of-care applications. Therefore, the concept of enabling these laboratory-based qualitative and quantitative assays in microfluidic device...

  • Unlocking Water's Potential for Energy Storage: Abundant Materials for a Ubiquitous Problem

    Creator:
    Leonard, Daniel P.
    Abstract:
    Water is an absolute necessity for life as we know it. It provides a useful medium in which chemical reactions take place that allowed for the development of single cellular organisms. When combined with the evolutionary accident that was pho- tosynthesis, water became not only a useful medium chemical reactions,...

  • Rheological Techniques in Characterization and Aiding in the Modification of Soft Matter

    Creator:
    Daalkhaijav, Uranbileg
    Abstract:
    Soft matter encapsulates a large array of materials ranging from electronics, plastics, and cosmetics to the biofluids making up all organisms. One of the most important properties of these materials that dictate their functionality is their rheology, which is the flow and deformation behavior in response to stress. The focus...

  • Innovative Bioanalytical Tools & Methods for Combinatorial Non-Coding RNA Analysis

    Creator:
    Zhang, Lulu
    Abstract:
    Recently researchers have discovered that groups of small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play regulatory roles in gene expression and participate in various biological processes. For example, pathogenesis of many diseases, cell cycle regulation, and signaling pathways. Intracellular and live cell imaging of small ncRNA groups will reveal their relative expression levels...
