Microfluidic Investigations of Capillary Flow and Surface Phenomena in Porous Polymeric Media for 3D Printing

Creator:: Donovan, Katrina J.
Abstract:: The advent of 3D Printing has invigorated research into metamaterials, synthetic composite material that produce properties generally not found in natural materials, requiring further studies into understanding the fundamental properties of these materials. This dissertation proposes a novel imaging technique to investigate the surface interactions occurring in an unsaturated packed...

Development of a Medicinal Infused Hydrogel Patch for the Treatment of Burns and Diabetic Ulcers

Creator:: Griffiths, Abigail E.
Abstract:: Metamix is a mixture of botanical compounds that promote healing and prevent infection for burns and diabetic ulcers. In this thesis, metamix was incorporated into 1.75 weight percent gellan gum hydrogels as a drug delivery method for burned skin. The ideal concentration of metamix was 25% by solution volume for...

Investigating the effects of temperature on secondary metabolism in Vitis vinifera L. cv. merlot berries

Creator:: Cohen, Seth D.
Abstract:: Grapes (e.g. Vitis vinifera L.) are one of the more important fruit crops from an economic standpoint with world market values over 550 million US dollars in 2007 and 2008, second to apples (United States Department of Agriculture). While a satisfactory level of ripeness is of primary concern, the quality...

Composition of flavonoid phenolic polymers isolated from red wine during maceration and significance of flavan-3-ols in foods pertaining to biological activity

Creator:: Aron, Patricia M.
Abstract:: Representing the most common flavonoid consumed in the American diet, the flavanols and their polymeric condensation products, the proanthocyanidins, are regarded as functional ingredients in various beverages, whole and processed foods, herbal remedies and supplements. Their presence in food affects food quality parameters including astringency, bitterness, sourness, sweetness, salivary viscosity,...

An Exploration of Climate Change, Conservation, and Cooperation, in Three Essays

Creator:: Johnson, Steven Mana'oakamai
Abstract:: The defining feature of our planet are the oceans, which make up 70% of the Earth’s surface. The importance of the ocean cannot be understated: 50% of oxygen originates from phytoplankton; heat is absorbed and redistributed by ocean currents; and hundreds of millions of people rely on the ocean for...

Zinc Tin Oxide Thin Films by Pulsed Laser Deposition for use in Transparent Thin-Film Transistors

Creator:: Osborne, James J.
Abstract:: Zinc tin oxide (ZTO) films deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) are investigated as a channel layers for transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs). Films are deposited on glass for characterization, and transistor channel layers are deposited onto aluminum oxide-titanium oxide/tin doped indium oxide/glass substrates (ATO/ITO/glass) to produce TTFTs. UV-visible spectroscopy on...

Breeding tomatoes for improved antioxidant activity

Creator:: Mes, Peter Jack, 1976-
Abstract:: Purple tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculemtum) were bred by incorporating genes that result in anthocyanin production in the skin of fruits. These genes originally came from related wild species as no naturally occurring genes encoding fruit anthocyanin expression are known within the cultivated species. By combining Aft or Abg with atv or...

Evidence for the involvement of a mitochondrial permeability transistion in a victorin-Induced cell death

Creator:: Curtis, Marc James
Abstract:: Production of the host selective toxin victorin is causal to pathogenesis of Cochliobolus victoriae on oats. The dominant Vb gene confers oat sensitivity to victorin, and is genetically inseparable from Pc2, which confers resistance to Puccinia coronata f. sp. avena. Victorin induces apoptotic-like cell death, and cell death is a...

Breeding ecology and nest site selection of Kittlitz's murrelets on Kodiak Island, Alaska

Creator:: Lawonn, Matthew James
Abstract:: The Kittlitz's murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris) is a rare member of the seabird family Alcidae that breeds in coastal areas of Alaska and Beringian Russia. The species belongs to the genus Brachyramphus, an unusual seabird taxon in which all three extant species nest non-colonially, situating their nests up to 75 km...

Breeding tomato for increased fruit phenolics

Creator:: Boches, Peter S.
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to develop tools and germplasm for the production of tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) with high fruit phenolics without the use of genetic engineering. A candidate gene analysis was undertaken to identify genes regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis in tomato fruit (Aft, Abg, atv, and Purple Smudge)....
