  • Characterization of dissolved wood organics in totally-chlorine-free bleaching kraft pulp mill effluents

    Creator:
    Xie, Dingming
    Abstract:
    Six filtrate samples (liquid state) were obtained from selected stages in a totally-chlorine- free (TCF) bleach pulp mill. The solids were recovered by evaporation on rotary evaporators and by lyophilization with a freeze drier. Chemical contents (inorganic and organic chemicals) of the six filtrates were analyzed quantitatively according to TAPPI...

  • Expanding Diagnostic Assays for Pseudoloma neurophilia & Description of the Progression of Infection in Adult Zebrafish Populations

    Creator:
    Schuster, Corbin J.
    Abstract:
    Pseudoloma neurophilia is the most common pathogen reported in zebrafish (Danio rerio) research facilities and is an important threat to the zebrafish model. This microsporidian parasite can cause clinical disease, but more importantly is a causative agent of non-protocol induced variation in research. Studies utilizing infected zebrafish, could potentially confound...

  • Response Sensitivity Formulations for Geometrically Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis

    Creator:
    Al-Aukaily, Alabbas
    Abstract:
    Significant amounts of uncertainty owing to both modeling decisions and inherent randomness are present in simulating the material and geometric nonlinear response of structural systems to extreme loading. Computing the sensitivity of structural response with respect to model parameters indicates which parameters have the largest affect on the response, which...

  • Development and disease of opakapaka (Pristiopomoides filamentosus) larvae in culture

    Creator:
    Keafer, Briana
    Abstract:
    Opakapaka (Pristipomoides filamentosus) is a snapper (family Lutjanidae) native to the waters around Hawaii. Recent population declines of this commercially important species have increased interest in the culture of this fish. Survival of this fish through the larval period in culture has been consistently low, usually not exceeding 2%. The...

  • Catch per Unit Effort Associated with Species Regulation Changes in Recreational Fisheries Management

    Creator:
    Frink, Ashley M.
    Abstract:
    Recreational fisheries regulations at the state level along the US Atlantic coast are constantly changing to ensure the sustainability of marine fish populations. It is hypothesized that effective management of recreational fishing effort should have a positive impact on fish stocks. Using recreational catch per unit effort (CPUE) as a...

    Creator:
    Bredeweg, Erin L.
    Abstract:
    Fungi are capable of growth on a wide variety of carbon sources, both living and dead. They can produce an arsenal of enzymes and transporters for harvesting sugars, polysaccharides, amino acids, lipids and micronutrients from their environments [1]. Within the nucleus of a cell, transcription factors (TF) control whether genes...
