Difference in prostate cancer rates between the United States and Spain : effect of vitamin D

Creator:: Marvel, Kathryn
Abstract:: Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men, but rates around the world vary greatly. Americans have the highest incidence rates in the world, 4 to 5 times those of Spain. The hypothesis of this thesis was that vitamin D metabolism is a factor in prostate cancer development...

Effects of Contemporary Forest Practices on Stream Nutrients, Temperature, and Periphyton in Small Headwater Streams

Creator:: Pimont, Cedric
Abstract:: Forest harvest practices can impact nutrient concentrations and stream temperatures, altering aquatic ecosystems. To better inform future sustainable forest resource management practices, quantifying the impact of current practices on water quality, particularly in headwater streams is important. In this study, I quantified monthly nitrate-nitrite (N) and orthophosphate (P) concentrations, 7-day...

Analyzing the molecular basis of increased enduracidin production in Streptomyces fungicidicus

Creator:: Herinckx, Molly A.
Abstract:: Enduracidin is an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces fungicidicus that is effective against Gram-positive bacteria. Previous work identified seventy-eight mutations in an S. fungicidicus strain that produces a significantly higher level of enduracidin than the wild type strain, ATCC 21013. Eleven mutations were analyzed individually to identify those that may contribute...

Variation in Irc7p activity amongst brewing strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Vega, Esteban A.
Abstract:: Polyfunctional thiols are sulfur containing compounds that are important to the flavor and aroma profile of some foods and beverages. S. Cerevisiae has been shown in wine yeast that it is capable of producing these thiols to create a fruity aroma and flavor profile. IRC7, a gene that codes the...

Experimental Design Approach for Evaluation of Airfoil-Driven Energy Harvesting

Creator:: Strahl, Jordan D.
Abstract:: An experimental setup has been partially developed to investigate the impact of an actively controlled trailing edge component upon the energy harvesting performance of an oscillating airfoil in a pitching and heaving regime. While previous and current efforts have and continue to function to characterize the performance of such a...

Real-time Speech Workload Estimation

Creator:: Fortune, Julian D.
Abstract:: Demanding task environments (e.g., supervising a remotely piloted aircraft) require performing tasks quickly and accurately; however, periods of low and high operator workload can decrease task performance. Intelligent modulation of the system’s demands and interaction modality in response to changes in operator workload state may increase performance by avoiding undesirable...

The Preference and Willingness to Pay for Clothing Subscription Boxes

Creator:: Gonzalez, Denice
Abstract:: With the various options available when it comes to online clothing subscription services, there are many attributes that affect an individual's decision to purchase a product or service over another. This results in ultimately affecting the consumers’ preference and willingness to pay for a product and/or service. This paper provides...

A preliminary assessment of post-fire dissolved organic carbon concentrations in the McKenzie River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Hyatt, Charles
Abstract:: In recent decades, the occurrence of large, high severity wildfires has increased substantially in many parts of the world, including the western United States. These fires have the potential to impact water quality, aquatic ecosystems, and downstream communities for many decades. As such, it is increasingly important to understand the...

Analysis of SNPs in Mycoplasma cynos strains from canine hosts within the Pacific Coast animal shelter network

Creator:: Prymolenna, Anastasiya V.
Abstract:: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can be used as markers to infer population genetic structure. For Mycoplasma cynos, a pathogen associated with infectious respiratory disease among canines and other animals, SNPs may help to elucidate ecological and evolutionary relationships among the strains that reside in the upper respiratory tract of canines...

Engineering a Profiling System for a Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler

Creator:: Shannon, Robert J.
Abstract:: ROSS (Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler) is an autonomous boat, equipped with oceanographic sensors, used for studying the ocean’s surface. One of its advantages over traditional research vessels is its ability to sample near glaciers, an area too dangerous for manned ships. In order to properly ascertain deep ocean heat’s effect...
