Role of myosin heavy chain polymorphism in differential susceptibility of muscle fibers to eccentric contraction

Creator:: Choi, Seung Jun
Abstract:: Relationships between myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoform content and eccentric-induced damage were investigated in chemically skinned muscle fiber segments. Fibers were subjected to an eccentric contraction standardized for strain magnitude (0.25 fiber length) and velocity (0.50 maximal shortening velocity). Fiber MHC isoform content was identified by SDS-PAGE. Pre- to post-eccentric...

The effects of engineered coatings and natural organic matter on nanoparticle aggregation

Creator:: McDowell, Shannon A.
Abstract:: In order to better predict the aggregation state of nanomaterials, the factors that influence aggregation must be understood. The combined effects of natural and engineered coatings have been shown to factor into nanoparticle aggregation behavior in preliminary research. In this study, aggregation behaviors of gold nanoparticles with two different engineered...

Remediation of atrazine in irrigation runoff by a constructed wetland

Creator:: Runes, Heather B.
Abstract:: Due to its frequent use in agriculture and its frequent detection in surface water, atrazine was chosen as a model compound to study the treatment capability of a surface flow wetland used to remediate irrigation runoff at a container nursery near Portland, Oregon. Further evaluation of treatment of atrazine was...

The epidemiology of fractures among adults with severe mental retardation residing in a state developmental center

Creator:: Downs, Steve B.
Abstract:: This retrospective study investigated the incidence, characteristics, and risk factors of bone fracture among a group of 518 adults with severe mental retardation between 25 and 75 years old. Data were collected from a large state developmental center in the Western United States between April 1, 1991 and March 31,...

The effect of cytosine methylation on DNA structure

Creator:: Vargason, Jeffrey M.
Abstract:: DNA methylation is common in prokaryotes and eukaryotes and has been implicated in various biological roles including gene silencing, X-chromosome inactivation, and genomic imprinting. 5-methylcytosine the "fifth base" of the genetic code comprises 1-3% of the human genome and is primarily found on cytosines within the context of the CpG...

School Bullying Intervention Programs and the Eight Positive Youth Development Indicators of High-Quality Youth Programs : A Systematic Review and Analysis

Creator:: Flesch, Jeffrey M.
Abstract:: During the past two decades a wide range of intervention programs have emerged in response to escalating concerns over school bullying. The advent of such programs seems justified as 70 percent of school-aged children and youth identify bullying as a problem in their school (Polanin, et al., 2012; Renshaw &...

Phytosanitation of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) logs to mitigate the risk of artificially disseminating Phytophthora ramorum within the global trade of timber

Creator:: Hulbert, Joseph M.
Abstract:: Phytophthora ramorum is a plant pathogen that was accidentally introduced to the United States. This invasive microorganism has killed over a million trees in California and Oregon, and continues to spread to new areas. Diseased areas have been nationally quarantined to prevent further spread and more than ninety countries include...

Groundwater and stormwater treatment at western wood preserving facilities : an analysis of current treatment methods

Creator:: Ragan, Anita M.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest is blessed with an abundance of precipitation. This rainfall, however, can have important consequences for industries that must process the resulting stormwater for proper discharge. This is particularly true of wood treatment facilities. Past management practices at wood preserving facilities located in the Western United States create...
