Ionic Strength and pH: A Look at Nanostar Stability

Creator:: Aldous, Tanner J. E.
Abstract:: Nanostars have many potential applications, particularly in biomedicine, such as drug delivery, detection assays, and even cancer treatment. Seeing how their plasmon changes in response to changes to the environment of the nanostars can give us an insight to the stability of the nanostars. Our current studies involve the effect...

Partial purification of endo-1,4-β-D-glucanase I of Trichoderma reesei and use in small-scale enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose

Creator:: Pautsch, Lindsay
Abstract:: In order to reduce the cost of lignocellulosic ethanol production, a model was previously developed to predict the amount of fermentable sugar released based on parameters concerning both biomass and enzymes. To validate this model, enzymatic hydrolysis must be carried out using individual purified cellulase enzymes. Endo-1,4-β-D-glucanase I (EG I),...

An analysis of seismicity at Mt. Hood, Oregon

Creator:: Currie, Michelle
Abstract:: Mt. Hood, in north-central Oregon, has experienced 13 M ≥ 3.0 earthquakes since 1980. 1812 earthquakes that range in magnitude from -1.1 to 4.5 have been recorded in the region during the same time frame. This paper analyzes four of the larger earthquakes to provide moment tensor solutions and relocated...

Voter Displeasure: The Role of Dislike For the Opposition In the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election

Creator:: Schiek, Andrew
Abstract:: One of the surprising things about the 2016 presidential election was how much each presidential candidate was disliked. In this historic election, questions about whether voters made their decisions by supporting their candidate or voting against another have arisen. Studies have been done in the past that examine which traits...

Spatial and vertical distribution of the invasive European green crab, Carcinus maenas, in a temperate estuarine system

Creator:: Lundeberg, Christopher A. and Weldon, Taylor
Abstract:: Carcinus maenas is an invasive marine predator. Its generalist feeding strategies make it one of the most effective invaders. Carcinus maenas has invasive populations throughout the world, and was recently introduced to the west coast of North America. This study looks at the abundance and growth of C. maenas in...

Environmental Justice Inventory – Linn-Benton County, Oregon

Creator:: Patchell, Roman, Judokusumo, Madeline, Cortes, Mariana, and Fisher, Halle
Abstract:: The purpose of this inventory is to detail the state of environmental justice in the Mid- Willamette Valley in an up-to-date, centralized format. The inventory is based on information from various government sources, and a survey to gather first-person perspective to take a pulse of the wellbeing of our community....

Visual discrimination and memory of Enteroctopus dofleini, the Giant Pacific Octopus

Creator:: Boyle, Virinda R.
Abstract:: This study evaluated the memory and visual discrimination capabilities of Enteroctopus dofleini, the Giant Pacific Octopus. Octopuses have been known to have advance sensory capabilities and through this study we challenged our specimen to remember and actively choose a specific patterned jar based on a visual pattern and positive reinforcement....

Toxicity and Mutagenicity of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Contaminated Soils using Mammalian In Vitro Assay

Creator:: Luker, George W.
Abstract:: There exists a growing need to establish a better in vitro model for evaluating PAH toxicity and carcinogenicity and to improve assessments of risk to human health, especially to the complex mixtures that exist in the environment. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants due to the incomplete combustion...
