Amphidinolide B₁ is one of the most potent cytotoxic compounds in the
amphidinolide family. Its bioactivity and intriguing structure has drawn
attention from synthetic chemists. Although numerous synthetic efforts toward
the total synthesis of amphidinolide B₁ have been published, it still remains an
unconquered synthetic target.
One of the unique...
Spatially explicit maps of habitat relationships have proven to be valuable tools for conservation and management applications including evaluating how and which species may be impacted by large scale climate change, ongoing fragmentation of habitat, and local land-use practices. Studies have turned to remote sensing datasets as a way to...
A continuous process for the production of ceramic materials has been studied.
This method reacted metal and oxidizer in a diffusionally controlled process,
demonstrated by reacting a magnesium particle stream and hot water vapor. Many small
rich hydrogen/air diffusion flames provide an atmosphere of hot water vapor, hydrogen,
and nitrogen...
Calls for reform within engineering education frequently cite the need to better prepare the future workforce for the imminent challenges that they will face. The focus in preparing students for the workforce is often on the educational system and not on understanding the actual workplace. But if we are to...
The use of Landsat data has historically been constrained to spectral and spatial information derived from a carefully selected image or set of images. However, free and open access to Landsat imagery combined with advances in data storage and computing are revolutionizing how the Landsat temporal domain is used to...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of youth
gang awareness training on school personnel. Middle and high school level
teachers, counselors, and school administrators in a rural Oregon school
district were the focus of this study.
Six specially designed modules were created by the researcher and...
Racial integration of the Louisiana public school system had a devastating
effect on its number of Black teachers. The state has yet to recover from this
reduction, as fewer Black college students pursue education degrees. This study
reports on whether or not the lack of Black educators has influenced high...
The objective of this study was to compare the effects on eating behavior,
lipids, lipoproteins, lipid peroxidation, and glycemic control in women with type 2
diabetes of a high-monounsaturated fat diet (HM) compared to a high-carbohydrate
diet (HC).
In an outpatient feeding study, ten hypertriglyceridemic postmenopausal type
2 diabetic women...
