An Improved Chemical Kinetic Model Reduction in pyMARS for Liquid Propellants

Creator:: Moore, Cailin J.
Abstract:: The aerospace industry uses chemical kinetic models when designing propulsion systems to acquire specific details about the rate of chemical reactions, heat release, and combustion stability. These models, however, are too large and stiff to be useful as they can take weeks to run computations on. The pyMARS python package...

Metabolic Analysis of Bovine Nucleus Pulposus Cells with Constant and Variable Glucose Supply

Creator:: Rosene, Rees Alan
Abstract:: There is no standardized method for culture of intervertebral disc (IVD) cells when monitoring metabolic processes. We hypothesize that the metabolic rates of cells that are crucial to experiment designs depend on the cell culture method used. The glycolytic pathway and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle are the pathways through...

Importance of TLR2 and TLR4 signaling against M. abscessus infection of macrophages and use of mycobacteriophage genomics toward understanding some of the aspects of phage therapy

Creator:: Kapoor, Hannah A.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium abscessus (MAB) is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for infections in immunocompromised or immunosuppressed patients. Even with long-term treatment with multiple antibiotics, MAB pulmonary infections have high rates of treatment failure. Within the host, MAB is phagocytosed by key innate immune cells macrophages. The TLR2 and TLR4 are two critical...

Regulation of the Pantoea agglomerans type III secretion system by plant-exuded sugars

Creator:: Bacher, Daniel
Abstract:: Pantoea agglomerans pathovar betae (Pab) is a bacterium that causes galls on the roots of beet plants, resulting in reduced marketability of beet roots and crop loss. Pab uses a type III secretion system (T3SS) to infect and cause galls on beets. The T3SS is a molecular syringe-like structure that...

Healthcare Provider Recommendation and Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Rate among Adolescents ages 13-17

Creator:: Sawtelle, Katie G.
Abstract:: This literature review will outline HPV vaccination rates among those ages 13-17, barriers to HPV vaccination and highlight physician recommendation, the strongest predictor of HPV vaccine uptake. It was found that only about 54.2% of adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17 are up to date with HPV vaccination...

Effects of Yeast Type and Environmental Factors on Kombucha Fermentation

Creator:: Julianna, Winding
Abstract:: Kombucha is a fermented sweet tea beverage of Asian origin which has become popular in the West due to its distinct flavor and possible health benefits. Kombucha is fermented by inoculating sweet tea with yeast and bacteria until a pellicle, referred to as a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and...

Insight into the regulation of quorum sensing antiactivator genes qteE and qslA in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Creator:: Lawless, Finn
Abstract:: Ubiquitous pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa coordinates population-wide activation of virulence genes through quorum sensing (QS), where individuals transition from solo to social behaviors to benefit the population. QS is complex and mechanisms vary from species to species, but the concept is common to the bacterial world and has implications in various...

Kinetics of plankton respiration across gradient of anoxic to oxic conditions

Creator:: Jayawickrama, Clare
Abstract:: Ocean deoxygenation is predicted to increase in severity over the next few decades, posing a threat to marine life and fishing economies. Improved predictions of ocean deoxygenation depend on a better understanding of the biogeochemical mechanisms that underly this process. Within the realm of biogeochemical mechanisms, this project specifically investigated...

Developing a Method For Quantitation of Organic Acid Exometabolites Released By Streptococcus mutans Biofilm Grown Under Oral Cavity-like Conditions

Creator:: Akmal, Ryaan
Abstract:: Tooth decay in the form of dental caries and cavities is estimated to be among the most common health conditions globally, with treatment of these oral diseases resulting in a massive, world-wide economic burden. The cause of this demineralization of teeth is rooted in the action of complex microbial biofilms...

Cannabis and Emotion Processing: A Review of Behavioral, Physiological, and Neural Responses

Creator:: MacKenzie, Alyssa A.
Abstract:: With cannabis use increasing globally, it is important to understand its acute and chronic impacts on human physiology and behavior. It is proposed that cannabis use is linked to impairments in emotion processing, and brain regions that underlie these processes. The purpose of this review paper is to provide the...
