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...

Factors Contributing to the Development of Body Fat In Growing Boys and Girls

Creator:: Lovemark, Courtney
Abstract:: The prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents continues to rise and is considered a major public health problem. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the contributions of sport participation, and calcium intake (controlling for mean energy intake, sex, and maturation status) on the development of...

Stress and Learning in Larval Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Moussaoui, Bushra
Abstract:: In this study, we characterize the behavioral response of larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) to the noxious chemical allyl isothiocyanate (AITC), an agonist of the nociceptive TRPA1 ion channel, and utilize AITC as an aversive stimulus in an associative learning paradigm. We find that larvae exposed to AITC in both a...

Functionalization of Surfaces with Nisin in a Polyethylene Oxide Brush Layer

Creator:: Ryder, Matthew P.
Abstract:: Infections in hospitals account for over 100,000 deaths per year. These infections occur at the hospital from complications following bacterial adhesion to intravenous catheters, coronary stents and other implanted devices. Another common problem is protein adsorption to the surface of the device and subsequent blood clotting. Methods for combating these...

Sexual dimorphism and seasonal changes in the Harderian gland of the red-sided garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis

Creator:: Erickson, Sten M.
Abstract:: The Harderian gland (HG) of the red-sided garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis, is a secretory structure that plays a role in the vomeronasal system by solubilizing semiochemicals such as prey chemoattractants and the female sexual attractiveness pheromone. The HG produces secretions containing pheromone-binding proteins that form a complex with pheromone...

Using The MPA Guide to Better Understand Global Marine Conservation Efforts

Creator:: McArthur, Madeleine G.
Abstract:: Across the globe, Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been established to protect biodiversity, sustain fisheries, and preserve cultural resources. However, there exist broad differences among MPAs with respect to their establishment stage and protective regulations, making it difficult to quantify how much ocean protection is actually occurring. This thesis utilizes...

Investigating synergistic effects of climate and land-use change on the pollination of a tropical plant, Heliconia tortuosa

Creator:: Dowd, Claire E.
Abstract:: Loss of biodiversity due to the effects of climate and land-use change may have implications for pollination services. Disruption to phenological synchronicity or a reduction in the overlap in species distributions of plants and their pollinators may reduce floral resources to pollinators, forcing them to move farther distances. If pollinators...

Gastrointestinal Parasitism in Healthy Show South American Camelids

Creator:: Kutzler, Colleen J.
Abstract:: Camelid health and parasitology experts disagree on what a “safe” level of internal parasitism is in camelids. The objective was to determine the levels of parasitism in show camelids (llamas and alpacas). The hypothesis was that fecal egg counts (FEC) in camelid would differ based upon geographic location, species (llama...

Turn-Taking in Face-to-Face Conversations: A Proposed Theory of Chair Swiveling

Creator:: Smith, Lyshuand R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to propose swiveling behavior as a potential speech transitioning device and to discuss the methodology behind qualitative and quantitative analysis of swivels in relation to subjects’ partners. Due to the impacts of gaze and body orientation direction on speech transitioning, it is deduced that,...
