Sources of Soil Carbon Loss from Soil Density Fractionation: Soluble Pools or Methodology?

Creator:: Gordon, Ester K.
Abstract:: Soil is the largest terrestrial store of carbon (C) making it a critical component of the global C cycle. To model global carbon budgets more accurately we need to understand dynamics and turnover of the many different functional soil C pools that exist in soil. Many different methods are used...

Characterization of a diffusion soldering process for micro-technology-based energy and chemical systems manufacturing

Creator:: Gabriel, Michael A.
Abstract:: Several 316 stainless steel meso-scopic devices were made using a diffusion soldering process. Tensile strength and pressure drop of the devices were measured and metallurgical examinations were made of the joints. Continuous bonds were observed in the sample cross-section specimens. Strengths of the diffusion soldered joints were up to 56%...

The Effects of Ploidy Manipulation on ‘I3’ hemp

Creator:: McLeod, Adigun
Abstract:: Hemp is a dioecious, annual, flowering plant in the Cannabaceae family. It has been used for thousands of years to produce textiles, essential oils, and medicines. The overall purpose of these experiments was to propagate the cannabinoid-free cultivar, ‘I3’, and follow up by inducing polyploidy in the ‘I3’ hemp via...

Development of a Paper-Based Whole Blood Phenylalanine Assay for PKU Diagnosis and Monitoring in Low Resource Settings

Creator:: Robinson, Robert Tyler
Abstract:: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a genetic inborn metabolic disorder which inhibits the functional production of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). It currently affects one in 15,000 Americans and is the most common amino acid metabolism error found in newborns. Individuals affected with PKU are incapable of metabolizing the amino acid, phenylalanine...

Comminution of Fish Frame Byproduct: Impact on Constituent Solvent-Accessibility, Alkaline Protein Extraction, and Isoelectric Precipitation

Creator:: Gaspich, Bryan
Abstract:: The seafood industry has a problem of underutilization of harvested and processed fish. Up to 60% of the weight of the fish is considered a byproduct that is typically made into fishmeal for livestock and aquaculture feed, a low-value and non-food grade product. Two species that make up major fisheries...

Design and Modeling Techniques for Impedance Based Flow Cytometry

Creator:: Dawes, Jacob
Abstract:: Microfluidic devices have enabled lab-on-a-chip (LOC) systems that allow for complex sample analysis and preparation in a compact form factor. One technology that may benefit from a microfluidic approach and further miniaturization is flow cytometry. Flow cytometry is an analysis technique for enumerating and characterizing populations of cells; this is...

Synthesis and characterization of Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃ thin films for microelectromechanical systems

Creator:: Brookshire, Kirsten L.
Abstract:: Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃ (PZT) is a very attractive material for use in piezoelectric-based microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) due to its high piezoelectric coefficients and ability for large displacements with relatively low applied fields (as compared to electrostatic-based MEMS). The piezoelectric effect is strongly anisotropic, thus it is very desirable to control the crystallographic...

A Numerical Investigation into Capillary-Wrapped Liquid Sodium Pin-Bundles for Instrumentation Development

Creator:: Vietz, Stefan
Abstract:: Liquid sodium is a challenging fluid to perform verification and validation for. Its chemical reactivity, large thermal conductivity, and opacity make both modeling and experimental data gathering difficult. Converting the wire wraps of liquid sodium reactor fuel pin geometry into capillaries, and inserting fiber optic temperature sensors, promises to capture...

Aerobic Cometabolism of 1,4-Dioxane and cis-Dichloroethylene by Gellan Gum and Polyvinyl Alcohol/Sodium Alginate Hydrogel Beads Co-Encapsulated with Rhodococcus rhodochrous Strain ATCC 21198 and Slow-Release Growth Substrates: Batch, Column, and Toxicity Studies

Creator:: Conway, Sean P.
Abstract:: 1,4-Dioxane (dioxane) and cis-dichloroethylene (cDCE) are compounds commonly found in industrial cleaning and degreasing agents that are frequently present as groundwater contaminants. In an effort to develop a more effective treatment method for these compounds, hydrogel beads were fabricated with either gellan gum or a combination of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)...
