The retro-ene reaction of 2-vinylcyclohexanols and approaches to the synthesis of botryococcene

Creator:: Rusay, Ronald Joseph
Abstract:: The retro-ene reaction of 2-vinylcyclohexanols occurs readily in the vapor phase at 400-450° producing unsaturated carbonyl compounds in good yields. The starting- materials were prepared in general by the carbenoid addition reaction of ethyl diazoacetate, appropriately substituted cyclohexene, and copper catalyst to produce bicyclic esters which were reduced to the...

Measuring protein metal binding via mass spectrometry : copper, zinc superoxide dismutase and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Creator:: Rhoads, Timothy W.
Abstract:: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating disease characterized by the progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Dominantly-inherited mutations to the antioxidant enzyme Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) cause 3-6% of all ALS cases. The complete mechanism behind the toxicity of mutant SOD1 remains unclear, although significant evidence points to aberrant or...

Boundaries of research : civilian leadership, military funding, and the international network surrounding the development of numerical weather prediction in the United States

Creator:: Harper, Kristine C.
Abstract:: American meteorology was synonymous with subjective weather forecasting in the early twentieth century. Controlled by the Weather Bureau and with no academic programs of its own, the few hundred extant meteorologists had no standing in the scientific community. Until the American Meteorological Society was founded in 1919, meteorologists had no...

Symbiosis in the Pacific Ring of Fire : evolutionary-biology of Rhizopogon subgenus Villosuli as mutualists of Pseudotsuga

Creator:: Mujic, Alija Bajro
Abstract:: Rhizopogon is a large genus of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi that grows in association with host trees of the family Pinaceae. We have conducted a series of studies investigating the ecology and evolutionary biology of the EM symbiosis shared between R. subgenus Villosuli and trees of the genus Pseudotsuga. Two members...

Influence of cultivar and maturity on blackberry polyphenolics and investigation of sediment formation in blackberry juice

Creator:: Siriwoharn, Thanyaporn
Abstract:: The influence of cultivar and maturity on polyphenolic composition and antioxidant activity was investigated by UV-Visible spectrophotometry and analytical high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in commercially important blackberry cultivars and selections. The anthocyanin pigments changed tremendously with ripening. Total anthocyanins increased from 74.7-317 mg/100g fw from underripe to over ripe...

John Wesley Powell : science and reform in a positive context

Creator:: Zernel, John Joseph, 1945-
Abstract:: John Wesley Powell worked actively for public land system reform while a director of geographical and geological surveys in the West from 1869 to 1894. Although this has won him acclaim as a conservationist, the basis of Powell's linkage of reform with scientific work is poorly understood. A study of...

Pathways of glucose utilization and ribose synthesis in the chick embryo

Creator:: Coffey, Ronald Gibson
Abstract:: The production of C¹⁴O₂ metabolized from glucose labeled in specific carbon atoms by homogenates of chick embryonic and adult heart was compared by the radiorespirometric technique. Homogenates of early (two to five days of incubation) embryo hearts were found to utilize the phosphogluconate pathway of glucose catabolism to a greater...

Thresholds of uncertainty : radiation and responsibility in the fallout controversy

Creator:: Jolly, J. Christopher
Abstract:: The public controversy over possible health hazards from radioactive fallout from atomic bomb testing began in 1954, shortly after a thermonuclear test by the United States spread fallout world wide. In the dissertation, I address two of the fundamental questions of the fallout controversy: Was there a threshold of radiation...

Turbine Induced Bird and Bat Fatalities at Wind Projects : Statistical Methods for Mortality Estimation Using Road and Pad Carcass Surveys

Creator:: Maurer, Joseph D.
Abstract:: Turbines at wind projects pose a threat to birds and bats flying at altitudes within the rotor swept area. These animals die from colliding with the turbine blades. Estimating mortality, or the total number of bird or bat fatalities at a wind project, is critical to understanding environmental impacts of...
