  • A regional computable general equilibrium model with applications for the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Zheng, Xiaojuan
    Abstract:
    Many important policy problems entail linkages among multiple economic sectors, and require the use of a general equilibrium economic modeling framework. This economic approach is appropriate when the market for any one good or service is linked to numerous other goods and services, and back to fundamental inputs such as...

  • Studies on effect of stabilizers, chelators and inherent periodicity on nanoparticle antioxidant activity

    Creator:
    Zhou, Zheng
    Abstract:
    The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is tightly regulated in biological systems as overproduction can lead to oxidative stress and result in a number of diseases. Due to its negative effects, antioxidants are studied and used against ROS in medicine, pharmaceuticals and therapeutics. Because of issues with the uptake...

  • Mapping of recursive algorithms onto multi-rate arrays

    Creator:
    Zheng, Yue-Peng
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, multi-rate array (MRA) architecture and its synthesis are proposed and developed. Using multi-coordinate systems (MCS), a unified theory for mapping algorithms from their original algorithmic specifications onto multi-rate arrays is developed. A multi-rate array is a grid of processors in which each interconnection may have its own...

  • Investigating the basis of substrate specificity in butane monooxygenase and chlorinated ethene toxicity in Pseudomonas butanovora

    Creator:
    Halsey, Kimberly H.
    Abstract:
    Pseudomonas butanovora, Mycobacterium vaccae, and Nocardioides sp. CF8 utilize distinctly different butane monooxygenases (BMOs) to initiate degradation of recalcitrant chlorinated ethenes (CEs) that pollute aquifers and soils. BMO-dependent degradation of CEs such as trichloroethylene (TCE) can lead to cellular toxicities. The type and severity of TCE transformation-dependent damage can have...

  • Carbon Nanodots as Biolabels for Fluorescence Immunoassays

    Creator:
    Wu, Yuanyuan
    Abstract:
    There has been a tremendous growth in interest in carbon nanodots (C-dots) in the past several years. As a nascent nanomaterial, C-dots have shown great promise in applications that benefit from their superior water dispersibility, low toxicity, non-blinking fluorescent output, chemical and biological compatibility, ease of functionalization and resistance to...

  • Structure-property relationships of layered oxypnictides

    Creator:
    Muir, Sean W.
    Abstract:
    Investigating the structure-property relationships of solid state materials can help improve many of the materials we use each day in life. It can also lead to the discovery of materials with interesting and unforeseen properties. In this work the structure property relationships of newly discovered layered oxypnictide phases are presented...

  • Centrifugal Partition Chromatography, Microfabrication, and a Smartphone-based Detection Platform : Analytical Chemistry from Preparative-scale Separation to Micro-scale Analysis

    Creator:
    Boonloed, Anukul
    Abstract:
    Analytical chemistry is an area of chemistry primarily focused on the study and use of instruments for separation, identification, and quantification of an analyte of interest. Specifically, separation science within analytical chemistry often refers to the process of dividing mixtures into their small component parts based on differences in their...

  • Error canceling low voltage SAR-ADC

    Creator:
    Wen, Jianping
    Abstract:
    The design of a switched capacitor successive approximation A/D converter is discussed in this thesis. This design adopts a novel capacitance mismatch error cancellation algorithm proposed in references [25, 27]. Detailed charge domain analysis is given in this thesis, which results in an improvement of the proposed algorithm by tracing...

  • The influence of early diagenesis on trace element and molybdenum isotope geochemistry

    Creator:
    Poulson, Rebecca L.
    Abstract:
    This thesis investigates the influence of early diagenesis on trace metal and molybdenum isotope behavior in marine and lacustrine environments. Chapter one is a synthesis of previous research in all the marine environments investigated, providing an essential geochemical context for interpreting the observed behavior of Mo in these settings. Chapter...

  • Molecular and Kinetic Characterization of Anammox Bacteria Enrichments and Determination of the Suitability of Anammox for Landfill Leachate Treatment

    Creator:
    Sultana, Sharmin
    Abstract:
    Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) has recently appeared as a promising approach for removing nitrogen from landfill leachates because it requires less oxygen and no organic carbon compared to traditional nitrification-denitrification system, and it produces low sludge volumes, thereby reducing operating and biological sludge disposal costs by over 60%. Anammox bacteria...
