Survival and persistence of Bacteroidales human and ruminant specific fecal markers and occurrence with fecal pathogens

Creator:: Walters, Sarah P.
Abstract:: Aquatic fecal contamination from non-point sources impairs environmental health and serves as a vehicle for transmission of waterborne disease, resulting in economic losses worldwide. Accurate methods of diagnosing fecal pollution and its source are needed to prevent human exposure, remediate pollution, and reduce economic impacts. In order to obtain this...

Population demography, resource use, and movement in cooperatively breeding Micronesian Kingfishers

Creator:: Kesler, Dylan C.
Abstract:: Island systems and species are susceptible to extinction because of their small population size and an ecological naiveté from an evolutionary past lacking strong competition and predation. For example, only one-fifth of the world’s bird species occur on islands, yet more than 90% of the avian extinctions witnessed during historic...

If you build it, will they come? Evolution towards the application of multi-dimensional GIS to fisheries-oceanography

Creator:: Vance, Tiffany C.
Abstract:: The development of new technologies in science is a balance between existence and use. There are three versions of this duality – something is built and users come, something is built and users don’t come, and, finally, potential users show up but the ballpark has not yet been built. In...

Growth and characterization of zinc ferrite thin films for high frequency applications

Creator:: Hu, Jiqing
Abstract:: Ferrites have been used for various high frequency applications as bulk materials. These applications, however, are limited to large dimension devices. In this thesis, thin film ferrites were deposited from a low temperature solution-based deposition process that is suitable for micro-scale high frequency applications. The low temperature nature of this...

Influence of interplanted and pure stands of red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) on microbial and chemical characteristics of a coastal forest soil in the Douglas-fir region

Creator:: Chen, Chi-sin
Abstract:: Chemical and microbial analyses were made at four seasonal intervals on soil horizons under red alder, conifers, and mixed alder-conifers at the Cascade Head Experimental Forest, established in 1937 by the U. S. Forest Service near Otis, Oregon. Microbial analyses showed that although plate counts of molds and bacteria fluctuated...

Effect of pharmaceuticals and natural products on multidrug resistance mediatedtransport in Caco-2 and MDCKII-MDR1 drug transport models

Creator:: Fan, Ying
Abstract:: This thesis details my investigation of some pharmaceuticals and natural products on the transport of drugs which are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), such as cyclosporin A (CSA) and digoxin by using Caco-2 and MDCKII-MDR1 drug transport models. Three objectives were performed to address this goal. The first objective was to...
