The purpose of this study was to identify the effective teaching
characteristics of teachers who participated in the Mentor-Teacher
Program and teachers who did not, and then determine if there were any
significant differences between the three groups of teachers: (1)
Mentor-Teacher Program interns (G.T.A.'s), (2) outstanding O.S.U.
graduates, and...
The role of the nonionic surfactant Tween 80 on the behavior of the therapeutic recombinant protein Factor VIII (rFVIII) was investigated at solid/liquid and air/water interfaces. In order to provide a model system to compare results obtained for the complicated rFVIII-Tween system, a well-characterized globular protein lysozyme was used. The...
Modular construction is increasingly seen as an efficient construction method in terms of time, cost, and energy. The full realization of these advantages partly relies on the efficiency of the production process inside the modular factories, which currently rely on tedious manual monitoring methods or expensive automated techniques. As a...
The purpose of this research was to determine if there were any relationships between measured personality traits and vocational interests between the Adult Learner with Learning Disabilities (ALLD) and without Learning Disabilities (ALNLD). Instruments utilized to measure personality traits and vocational interests included the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and...
Nonionic surfactants are commonly used to stabilize proteins during upstream and downstream processing and drug formulation. Surfactants stabilize the proteins through two major mechanisms: (i) their preferential location at nearby interfaces, in this way precluding protein adsorption; and/or (ii) their association with protein into "complexes" that prevent proteins from interacting...
The continuous improvement of construction operations requires a systematic approach of monitoring and making appropriate control actions. However, the lack of real-time information hinders this workflow and eventually compromises timely and effective decision-making. Project managers spend a great deal of time and effort to solve problems emerging from lack of...
The adsorption and elution of the antimicrobial peptide nisin at hydrophobic,
silanized silica surfaces coated with the poly[ethylene oxide]-poly[propylene oxide]-
poly[ethylene oxide] surfactant Pluronic® F108 was measured in situ, with ellipsometry.
While such layers are known to inhibit protein adsorption, nisin was observed to adsorb in
multilayer quantities, to an...
