Thresholds of uncertainty : radiation and responsibility in the fallout controversy

Creator:: Jolly, J. Christopher
Abstract:: The public controversy over possible health hazards from radioactive fallout from atomic bomb testing began in 1954, shortly after a thermonuclear test by the United States spread fallout world wide. In the dissertation, I address two of the fundamental questions of the fallout controversy: Was there a threshold of radiation...

Stereoselective synthesis & application of enantioenriched main group α-haloalkyl organometal reagents

Creator:: Emerson, Christopher R.
Abstract:: Sulfoxide-ligand exchange (SLE) and asymmetric halogen-metal exchange (AHME) processes were separately examined for the enantioselective synthesis of functionalized alpha-haloalkylmetal (carbenoid) reagents. Carbenoids derived from SLE were used to effect stereospecific reagent-controlled homologation (StReCH) of boronic esters and those generated via AHME were engaged in Darzens-type chemistry with aldehydes. Abstract for...

The Deathscape of St. Paul: Historic Cemeteries as Cultural Landscapes

Creator:: Boulware, Brooke L.
Abstract:: A cultural landscape analysis of two historic cemeteries in St. Paul, Oregon demonstrates that the residents of this early community were unknowingly using grave markers to express their worldview and the identities that they felt were most important. Because of the historical and cultural development of this community as the...

Identification of candidate genes for survival and their use in predicting field performance of Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas families in coastal waters

Creator:: Lang, Robert Paul
Abstract:: Summer mortality of farmed Pacific oysters causes financial losses for shellfish growers, and selective breeding to improve survival of offspring is a promising way to reduce losses. This dissertation has two objectives to assist the development of tools for use in selective breeding programs. Objective 1: Identify candidate genes for...

Conformationally chiral diphenylethers and the enantioselective Ullmann etherification

Creator:: Salih, M. Quamar
Abstract:: Since the discovery of molecular chirality in 1848, this notion has had a substantial impact on medicine, biology, and chemistry. Extensive effort has been directed towards the construction of chiral molecules that contain sp³ hybridized stereogenic centers. In contrast, less effort has been dedicated to molecules that are chiral by...

Approaches to The Optimization of Honey-Based Fermentations

Creator:: Kartik, Kritika
Abstract:: The fermentation of honey-based musts has been a feature of civilization for millennia. Typically comprised of 75-90% (w/w) simple (i.e. fermentable) sugars, the glucose and fructose present are readily fermented by either pitched or adventitious micro-organisms. Nevertheless, despite its venerable heritage, honey-based fermentations are prone to inconsistency, and it is...

Total Synthesis of Tryptamine Alkaloids from the Arundo and Leuconotis Genera

Creator:: Ferreira, Andrew
Abstract:: The first part of this manuscript is about the total synthesis of the Arundo donax bis(indole) natural products. The A. donax alkaloids were prepared using the first example of an ynindole Diels–Alder reaction. Each were then separated, isolated, and determined to have stable enantiomeric conformations at room temperature (Chen, J.;...

Delivering oxytetracycline to first-feeding zebrafish Danio rerio (Hamilton) and goby Asterropteryx semipunctata (Rüppell) larvae using lipid spray beads

Creator:: Temple, Ephraim E.
Abstract:: Effective treatment of larval bacterial diseases is a difficult problem when culturing ornamental fish. Oral administration of antibiotics using existing microparticle types is not effective due to high leakage rates; furthermore, injection of larvae is not practical. Treatment is currently limited to use of antibiotic baths, . In this study,...

Characterization and Prediction of Reactive Forces for Compressed 3D Printed Hyperelastic Lattice Structures

Creator:: So, David M.
Abstract:: In order to generate practical ways to easily design functional flexible lattice structures, this research seeks to find a way to predict reactive forces of compressed hyperelastic cubic lattice structures. Using 3D printed test coupons, material data was collected for use in finite element analysis. Cubic lattice structures with varying...

Persistence of western juniper resource islands following canopy removal

Creator:: Miwa, Christopher
Abstract:: Western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) cover has more than doubled within the last century and currently occupies over 9 million acres in the Intermountain West. Encroachment has altered the spatial distribution of soil nutrients and plants in these systems, forming nutrient enriched 'resource islands,' under tree canopies. The purpose of this...
