  • Youth Vaping Epidemic: LGBTQ+ Youth

    Creator:
    Bhupalam, Ratna
    Abstract:
    In the United States, rates of youth vaping are alarmingly high. In 2018, the U.S Surgeon General declared youth vaping as an epidemic (Truth Initiative, 2019a). However, LGBTQ+ youth are disproportionately affected. In 2017, current e-cigarette usage in youth was 13.2% among heterosexuals, but was 17.5% in LGBTQ+ youth (CDC,...

  • Demonstration of an Alginate Valve in a Paper Microfluidic Device

    Creator:
    Cornwell, David Q.
    Abstract:
    Paper microfluidic devices are capable of processing fluids using capillary flow in materials that are lower cost than the standard materials used in microfluidics. Due to the low cost of their fabrication and minimal requirements for instrumentation, paper microfluidic devices are ideal for use in low-resource settings. They have the...

  • Improving the sensitivity in a paper-based Test for the home monitoring of phenylalanine levels in phenylketonuria patients

    Creator:
    Wong, Liam
    Abstract:
    Monitoring phenylalanine (Phe) levels in the blood of individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU) is a critical component of therapy. Existing tests for PKU require high-resource laboratories, which are not available to many populations and cannot provide the real-time feedback required for effective therapy monitoring. It would be ideal to develop an...

  • Physicians and Treating Addiction in Patients

    Creator:
    Cao, Annie L.
    Abstract:
    More than twenty million people in the United States are estimated to have substance use disorders, and it is expected that the number will increase in the future. Physicians, especially general practitioners, play important roles in the treatment of substance use and other addiction disorders because they focus on overall...

  • Effects of nesting waterbirds on nutrient levels in mangroves, Gulf de Fonseca, Honduras

    Creator:
    McFadden, Tyler Neal
    Abstract:
    Mangroves provide numerous ecosystem services, including biodiversity values such as nesting sites for piscivorous waterbirds. High concentrations of pisicivoirous birds are hypothesized to affect ecosystem dynamics, yet few studies have examined their effects in mangroves. We examined the effects of nutrient enrichment by colonial waterbirds at a mangrove rookery in...

  • Quality and consumer acceptance of berry fruit pomace-fortified specialty mustard

    Creator:
    Davis, Lissa
    Abstract:
    Blueberry pomace (BP) and cranberry pomace (CP) are good sources of dietary fiber and phenolics. This study aimed to develop berry fruit pomace-fortified specialty mustard with elevated bioactive compounds. Wet BP and CP were ground and incorporated into Dijon-style mustard at concentrations of 15, 20, and 25% (w/w). Total dietary...
