Evaluation of Apatite II™ for removal of copper and zinc from highway stormwater runoff : laboratory and field experiments

Creator:: Provolt, Justin J.
Abstract:: Current best management practices (BMPs) for stormwater treatment are not able to adequately remove heavy metals to levels which do not adversely affect aquatic life. Copper is commonly found in highway stormwater runoff, with the primary source being brake pad wear. Copper is of particular concern due to inhibitory effects...

The assessment of copper and zinc removal from highway stormwater runoff using Apatite II™

Creator:: Huang, Hsiao-Wen
Abstract:: Copper and zinc are heavy metals commonly present in highway stormwater runoff. Discharge of these metals to surface waters inhabited by sensitive aquatic species including threatened and endangered salmonids has necessitated the need for improved treatment techniques. Although copper is of the greater toxicological concern, zinc is often present at...

The role of zinc in the molecular and cellular events in the prostate

Creator:: Yan, Michelle
Abstract:: Zinc is an essential mineral that is integral to many proteins and transcription factors that regulate key cellular functions. The normal prostate accumulates high concentrations of zinc; however, malignant tissues have significantly lower zinc levels. This unique relationship between zinc and the prostate has sparked interest in the role of...

The function of zinc in the maintenance of DNA integrity in vivo

Creator:: Song, Yang
Abstract:: Approximately 12% of Americans do not consume the amount of zinc equal to the Estimated Average Requirement for zinc and could be at risk for marginal zinc deficiency. Zinc is an essential component of proteins in the defense against oxidative stress and DNA damage repair. Specifically in the prostate, zinc...

Assessing the effectiveness and environmental impacts of using natural flocculants to manage turbidity

Creator:: Kegley, Laura J.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to determine the feasibility of using chitosan as a natural flocculant to control turbidity during in-stream construction work. A series of field tests in Oak Creek, Corvallis, OR were conducted in order to test the effectiveness for turbidity control and the environmental impacts of...

Ecological Consequences of Marine Debris: Understanding Large-Scale Species Transport on Tsunami Debris and Research Priorities in Oregon

Creator:: Gillman, Reva A.
Abstract:: The release of marine debris into the oceans and seas is a global issue of growing concern. These materials are harmful to marine environments and can also transport non-native species to novel habitats. Non-native species floating on marine litter is one of the lesser known impacts associated with marine debris....

An in silico Approach to Determine the Influence of Surface Chemical Properties on the Toxicity of Engineered Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles

Creator:: Zhou, Zitao
Abstract:: Nanotechnology products have long since made their way to markets around the world increasing the concerns about whether nanomaterials pose a risk to our environment or health. It has been suggested that engineered nanomaterial (ENM) with broad applications and rapid commercialization need better risk assessment and regulation. However, the refinement...

Transcriptional regulation of mouse epidermal permeability barrier development and homeostasis by Ctip2

Creator:: Wang, Zhixing
Abstract:: Skin is the largest organ in the body that protects the organism from environmental, chemical and physical traumas of each passing day. The protective skin epidermal permeability barrier (EPB) is formed within the exterior layers of the epidermis, which are regularly sloughed off and repopulated by movement of inner cells....

Uranium and technetium bio-immobilization in intermediate-scale permeable reactive scale barriers

Creator:: Sapp, Mandy M.
Abstract:: Groundwater at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Field Research Center (FRC) is contaminated with U(VI) and Tc(VII), has pH values as low as 3.3, and nitrate concentrations as high as 120 mM. The objective of this research was to determine if in-situ bio-immobilization is a viable treatment alternative for this water....
