Age-related response of isolated rat hepatocytes to menadione and (R)-[alpha]-lipoic acid

Creator:: Graves, Jason T.
Abstract:: Age-related decline in the capacity of endogenous antioxidant systems complicates pharmaceutical use by the elderly by potentially increasing the toxicity of some compounds. Of particular interest is chemical detoxification via glutathione (GSH) and attendant GSH-requiring detoxification enzymes, e.g. GSH peroxidases (GPX) and GSH S-transferase (GST). These enzymes have been shown...

Development and Application of Tools for Genetic Analysis of Clonal Populations

Creator:: Kamvar, Zhian N.
Abstract:: Research on the population genetics of microbial organisms requires the use of specialized analyses designed for clonal organisms to avoid violating the assumptions of traditional population genetic models. The tools necessary for performing these analyses existed as a set of unrelated software with non-overlapping capabilities and did not cover all...

Visualization of N-ary Relationships

Creator:: Qu, Botong
Abstract:: N-ary relationships, which relate N entities where N is not necessarily two, are omnipresent in real life. In this thesis, we develop a visualization technique for N-ary relationships. First, we propose a visual metaphor that utilizes vertices and polygons to represent entities and N-ary relationships. Based on this visual metaphor,...

Condensation of a zeotropic mixture, R-454C, and its individual components, R-1234yf and R-32, in microfin tubes

Creator:: Matty, Ethan P.
Abstract:: This work compares the condensation heat transfer and pressure drop for zeotropic refrigerant R-454C and its individual components, R-32 and R-1234yf, in horizontal microfin tubes. One microfin tube has a 4 mm outer diameter, 0.18 mm wall thickness, and a surface area ratio of 1.56. The second tube has a...

Music Generation and Evaluation Using R

Creator:: Lanz, Andrea L.
Abstract:: The main goal of this project is to implement an algorithmic music composition procedure and present all procedures and results in a reproducible fashion by creating a web application produced by R. To approach the implementation of the algorithmic composition of music, we start by exploring various models, but ultimately...

Childhood risk as a predictor of frequency of contact between incarcerated fathers and their children

Creator:: Galardi, Tasha R.
Abstract:: U.S. incarceration rates have soared over the past three decades and the demographic characteristics of those who end up in prison are a reflection of the nation's structural inequality. Incarcerated fathers are a socially disadvantaged group and spending time in prison compounds already significant risk factors that these men experienced...
