  • Bacillus subtilis endospore coat protein solubilization methods for studying effects of high pressure precessing

    Creator:
    Gandhi, Kalpesh K.
    Abstract:
    Spores of foodborne pathogens such as Clostridium botulinum, Clostridium perfringens and Bacillus cereus are widely distributed in nature. Presence of those spores in food products, particularly C. botulinum spores in vacuum packed, ready-to-eat low-acid products, is a great safety concern.

    Creator:
    Bair, Zolton J.
    Abstract:
    Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) is an iconic North American high-elevation tree species currently threatened by climate change, mountain pine beetle, and white pine blister rust (WPBR), a lethal disease caused by the non-native fungal pathogen Cronartium ribicola. In collaboration with the USDA Forest Service Dorena Genetic Resource Center, germplasm was...

  • Making meaning of supporting student spiritual development : perceptions of graduate students in a student affairs program

    Creator:
    Thomson, Amy K.
    Abstract:
    This interpretive, descriptive qualitative study explores how graduate students in a student affairs preparation program make meaning of their role in supporting student spiritual development. Six one-on-one semi-structured interviews with six graduate students were conducted in this single-site study. Five prevalent themes emerged from the data, each playing a role...

    Creator:
    Lee, Mankoo
    Abstract:
    A complete Gallium Arsenide Metal Semiconconductor Field Effect Transistor (GaAs MESFET) model including deep-level trap effects has been developed, which is far more accurate than previous equivalent circuit models, for high-speed applications in linear integrated circuit design. A new self-backgating GaAs MESFET model, which can simulate low frequency anomalies, is...
