Water treatment technologies for the developing world

Creator:: Burleson, Grace Ellen
Abstract:: The intent of this report is to provide a brief description of water quality issues in Nicaragua, Uganda and Bangladesh, and the technologies available to address these issues. The water quality parameters considered include: bacterial contamination, heavy metals and arsenic, pesticides and industrious chemicals, turbidity, radiological characteristics, and taste and...

A Computational Fluid Dynamics Investigation of Hemolysis Potential in a Microfluidic Hemoperfusion Device Designed for Use in Sepsis Treatment

Creator:: Myers, Karl N.
Abstract:: The potential of red blood cell (RBC) and platelet damage was studied for a novel microfluidic hemoperfusion device currently in development at Oregon State University for use in treating sepsis. COMSOL 4.4's computational fluid dynamics (CFD) module was used to examine shear rate profiles in laminar, Newtonian blood flow throughout...

The Effect of Zinc Status and Age on Liver Health in Mice

Creator:: Braun, Kendra N.
Abstract:: Age-related diseases have been associated with chronic inflammation and impaired immune response, one of the hallmarks of aging. Aging individuals also have a higher susceptibility to zinc deficiency. The effects of zinc deficiency share many commonalities with the effects of aging on the immune system and zinc deficiency may be...

The role of the putative transcription factor DIS10 in PRC2-mediated gene silencing

Creator:: Jackson, Kendra K.
Abstract:: PRC2 (Polycomb Repressive Complex 2) mediated gene silencing plays an important role in cell differentiation, stem cell plasticity, and tumor suppression. In fungi, it is also involved in pathogenicity. The catalytic subunit, KMT6, trimethylates lysine 27 on histone h3 (H3K27me3) at loci targeted for silencing. In animals, PRC1 and PRC2...

Using Community Voice to Build Trust in State Systems

Creator:: Yasui, Kendra M.
Abstract:: The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of community trust in state systems. Consideration of community concerns by public health agencies may help to establish more equitable policies, engaging community in emergency response and promoting inclusivity and trust. This paper outlines varying definitions of trust, then describes key considerations in...

Using Divertor Strike Point Splitting to Understand Plasma Response and its Sensitivity Equilibrium Uncertainty

Creator:: Teklu, Abraham M.
Abstract:: Soon the largest fusion project in the world, ITER, will attempt to produce more fusion power than required to sustain the fusion reaction, this is known as ignition. The tokamak (a toroidal fusion device) being built in France will be running at such high temperatures that heat distribution is a...

Mutation of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) kmt6 to Probe in vivo Function in Fusarium

Creator:: Josephson, Brian
Abstract:: Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is a histone methyltransferase that initiates facultative heterochromatin formation by trimethylating histone H3 on lysine 27 (H3K27me3). Mutations within its three primary subunits, KMT6, EED, and SUZ12, result in inherited diseases and sporadic cancers. In the fungus Fusarium graminearum, deletion of the gene encoding the...

Greeting Styles and the Establishment of Rapport in a University Writing Center

Creator:: Redding, Tawnya
Abstract:: The present study examined whether the nature of the greeting between a writing assistant and a student influenced the subsequent rapport that developed over the course of the writing center session. Eighteen Oregon State University undergraduate and graduate students were greeted in one of three ways by two confederates: with...

Solvent and Dispersion Effects on the Hydrodeoxygenation of Acetic Acid on a Pd(111) Model Surface

Creator:: Rebarchik, Michael A.
Abstract:: Increased dependence on fossil fuels and concerns of anthropogenic climate change have led to increased interest in alternative energy sources. Liquid fuels derived from renewable raw materials have gained attention in recent years due to their similarity to petroleum-based fuels. Biofuels derived through hydrodeoxygenation have been found to be one...

Variability in the condition of juvenile Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, at the Western Antarctic Peninsula

Creator:: Shah, Radhika S.
Abstract:: Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, are a highly abundant zooplankton species found in the Southern Ocean. They are a key food choice for higher trophic levels and are important consumers near the base of the food web. Changes to the environment of the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), as a result of...
