Exploring the Growth Habits of Sweetpotatoes (Ipomoea batatas) in the Willamette Valley of Western Oregon

Creator:: Epps, Charlotte
Abstract:: Sweetpotatoes are a highly nutritious staple crop, playing an important role in global nutritional security. Although the majority of research in the United States (U.S.) focuses on the cultivation of the storage roots, both the leaves and roots are edible. Sweetpotatoes are indigenous to the Andes Region of South America;...

MatTek™ EpiIntestinal™ a 3D Small Intestine Epithelial Cell Culture Model For In Vitro Screening in Dietary Chemopreventive Agents

Creator:: Raymundo, Wilfrido E.
Abstract:: Testing the many potential chemoprevention agents from dietary sources in animal or human models is expensive and takes a long time. In vitro models can be useful for screening the right compounds to use in larger studies. We tested the MatTek™ EpiIntestinal™ small intestine epithelial 3D cell culture model for...

A Needs Assessment of Social Emotional Learning Integration in Pre-College STEM Education at OSU

Creator:: Rodriguez Cardoso, Metzin A.
Abstract:: STEM education is delivered to K12 audiences by Pre-college Programs across the nation, many of which serve underrepresented and underserved students as part of their core missions. While there is robust attention to STEM curriculum development and college connection events in such programs, few have social-cultural aspects of learning as...

Characterization of Selective Knockout of Thioredoxin Reductase-1 (TR1) in Mouse Melanocytes In Vivo

Creator:: Wyant, Mark B.
Abstract:: Vitiligo is a disease characterized by depigmented patches of skin. The disease is known to involve the loss of melanocytes in the basal layer of the skin in affected areas, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Recent evidence suggests oxidative stress and disruptions to antioxidant pathways contribute to an autoimmune...

A Comparison of Ammonia Inhibition on the Anaerobic Digestion of Organic Acids Between Digestate from Anaerobic Co- and Mono-Digestion Systems

Creator:: Ruiz-Orozco, Gloria
Abstract:: Anaerobic digestion is a common terminal step in wastewater treatment systems and produces valuable by-products such as biogas, a combination of carbon dioxide and methane. Biogas can be used to off-set energy costs, and along with the anaerobic co-digestion of fats, oils, and greases (FOG) has been found to increase...

Tumorigenic bacteria from blueberry stem galls are related to Rhizobium tumorigenes-like Agrobacteria found in Rhododendron crown gall in Germany

Creator:: Khalib, Nurul Ain
Abstract:: Blueberry stem galls in Pacific Northwest are often attributed to Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The disease also is associated with indole-3-acetic-acid (IAA) producing bacteria, as described on cranberry stem gall. Lack of studies makes it difficult to conclude whether these two types of bacteria could be the causal agent of stem gall...

Developing a Learning Progression on Units and Dimensions by Dustin Treece

Creator:: Treece, Dustin
Abstract:: Units and dimensions are seldom addressed formally in science classrooms, despite being one of the most fundamental and ubiquitous tools available to scientists. Even worse, science and engineering graduates are often moving into careers without fundamentally understanding units and their importance, leading to struggles in developing scientific literacy and to...
Resource Type:: Undergraduate Thesis

Biogas inhibition of fats, oils, and greases with varying ammonia levels

Creator:: Aranda, Ana A.
Abstract:: Biogas can be used to generate energy from a wide variety of sources. Wastewater treatment sludge is an effective source of waste to be used for generation of biogas to make energy which can be used to heat homes and run businesses. This would help decrease the use of fossil...

Terahertz field enhancement in nanoantennas on gallium arsenide

Creator:: Brequigny, Victor
Abstract:: Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy is a great tool not only to study fundamental physical processes such as many-body Coulomb interaction but also to develop ultrafast electronic devices. More specifically, intense THz fields interacting with semiconductors have exhibited strong nonlinear effect involving extreme carrier dynamics. In this experiment, intense THz radiation was...

Deriving relationships between number of observed short gamma ray bursts and viewing angle

Creator:: Micallef, John T.
Abstract:: Gamma ray bursts are some of the brightest events in the entire observable universe. Since the late 1960’s, thousands of gamma ray bursts have been observed and they have been researched extensively. However, there are still many mysteries which remain unsolved. One such mystery is whether or not the viewing...
