Monte Carlo Simulations of Structure and Melting Transition of Small Ag Clusters

Creator:: Collins, Lee
Abstract:: The behavior of small atomics cluster largely depends on their geometry, due to the high ratio of surface atoms to interior atoms. One interesting aspect to study clusters centers around characterizing the transition behavior between nite and bulk materials, where the ratio of surface atoms to interior atoms is very...

Investigations into the Mechanism of Action of Dengue Virus Inhibitor Compounds

Creator:: Schneider, Christine A.
Abstract:: Several compounds have been recently identified which are effective against dengue virus, a tropical arbovirus highly prevalent in southeast Asia and central America. Initial intrinsic fluorescence characterization of the mechanism of action of compound B reveals binding affinity to the dengue capsid protein. A molecular beacon unwinding assay and malachite...

The Axiom of Choice and Homotopy Type Theory

Creator:: Schneider, Eric
Abstract:: In this work we introduce some basic concepts within homotopy type theory (HoTT), a proposed alternative mathematical foundation to classical set theory. In particular, our discussion revolves around the Axiom of Choice (AC). In Part I, we introduce the classical AC and some of its most important equivalents. In Part...

Influence of Corexit 9500A and Alaska North Slope Crude oil toxicity to the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, Nitrosomonas europaea, and the ammonia-oxidizing archaea, Nitrosopumilus maritimus

Creator:: Schneider, Margaret C.
Abstract:: The inhibitory effects of Corexit 9500A, Alaska North Slope Crude oil (ANSC), and mixtures of the two on the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, Nitrosomonas europaea, and the ammonia-oxidizing archaea, Nitrosopumilus maritimus, were investigated. Corexit 9500A was found to be minimally toxic to both microorganisms with concentrations of 2000 and 3000 ppm yielding...

Surface Structure Sensitivity to Fuel Adsorption on Pt(111) and Pt(100) and Carbon-Oxygen Bond Breakage at the Anode of a Direct Dimethyl Ether Fuel Cell

Creator:: Schneider-Coppolino, Merissa
Abstract:: As conventional energy sources begin to deplete, the need for alternative, renewable energy becomes more necessary. Dimethyl ether (DME) fuel cells are a promising energy source that could fulfill these demands. Compared to well-known fuel cell fuels, such as methanol, DME has a low toxicity and high energy density. Experimental...

Reasons Behind the Low Enrollment of Women in Computer Science

Creator:: Schneider, Ashley R.
Abstract:: Over the past few decades, the ratio of women to men in many traditionally maledominated fields has become much more equal. However, in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields the ratio has not improved at the same rate. In computer science the ratio is still very uneven. Today women...

The China Connection : A Glimpse of Collaborative Research Between China and Oregon State University

Creator:: Kenny, Kimberly
Abstract:: China’s global influence in the realm of science and technology (S&T) has increased dramatically in recent times. China and the United States are now each other’s main partner in scientific collaboration. As a major research university, OSU is one of the institutions with a large stake in this international collaboration....

The Relevance of Sexual Health Websites for African American Youth

Creator:: Barnard, Ke'ala J.
Abstract:: School-based comprehensive sex education (CSE) can reduce adolescent sexual health problems. However, only 49-55% of adolescents receive CSE that meets national standards. African American youth (AAY), particularly males, are less likely to receive CSE. AAY evidence a high prevalence of STIs/teen pregnancy. Internet-based CSE offers a supplemental option. We examined...

Poly-ion Layers in Layer by Layer Coating of Bacteria : Growth and Zeta Potential

Creator:: Latta, Emma N.
Abstract:: To determine the best poly-ion layers to be used in encapsulation of pyrrolizidine alkaloid degrading anaerobic microbes, a study was carried out to test three layers on coating ability and ability of the bacteria to grow after being coated. Two positive layers, poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly-L-lysine, and one negative...

Identification of a Bioactive Aryl Ether from a South African Tunicate

Creator:: White, Cora L.
Abstract:: Chemical compounds produced by organisms, or natural products, are excellent sources of inspiration for anticancer pharmaceutical discovery (Rodrigues et al., 2016). Microtubule targeting agents are a specific class of compounds, often discovered from natural sources, that have been developed as clinically successful anticancer therapies (Steinmetz and Prota, 2018). In the...
