Microwave-Assisted Synthesis and Chemical Modulation of MOF-74(Ni)

Creator:: Aldossary, Abdulrahman N.
Abstract:: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline porous material distinguished for high free empty volume and pore tunability. MOF-74(Ni) was previously shown to be effective in adsorbing carbon dioxide, methane, and hydrogen. Microwave-assisted synthesis of MOF-74(Ni) was shown to lower reaction time from days to hours. In this thesis, experimental conditions of...

Two Step Oleofuran Production from Furfural and Fatty Alcohols

Creator:: Gadinas, Nicholas L.
Abstract:: A present abundance of biomass and a decreasing supply of petroleum signal the need for efficient pathways from renewable feedstocks to high value chemicals. One such class of chemicals is oleofurans, molecules comprised of a furan ring and carbon chain which can be used to make powerful hard water surfactants....

Transformers for representing microbiome data: an empirical evaluation

Creator:: Varma, Rohan
Abstract:: As the link between human microbiomes and health has become more established, the interest in applying statistical approaches to microbiome data to understand the mechanisms behind these links has grown. However, microbiome data is often of unmanageable size, and consequently, producing quality lower dimensional representations of samples is a significant...

An Investigation into the Time-Sensitive Color Changing Quality of the Pigment Extracted from Scytalidium ganodermophthorum

Creator:: Walsh, Zielle
Abstract:: Scytalidium ganodermophthorum (Xylogone ganodermophthora) is known as a yellow-pigmenting spalting fungus. However, recent observations have indicated that the dichloromethane-extracted pigment produced by S. ganodermophthorum can vary in color from yellow to green to red to purple, depending on the age of the fungus at harvesting. The timeline and mechanisms behind...

The role of sigma factors in production of cyanobacterial natural products: Escherichia coli as a heterologous expression host

Creator:: Wells, Kaitlyn N.
Abstract:: Cyanobacteria represent an underexploited source of bioactive natural products of interest to the pharmaceutical industry. Lack of development of these compounds as drug leads is due mainly to myriad practical problems with the producing strains including long doubling times, genetic intractability, and low compound yields. Previous attempts at heterologous expression...

Importance of TLR2 and TLR4 signaling against M. abscessus infection of macrophages and use of mycobacteriophage genomics toward understanding some of the aspects of phage therapy

Creator:: Kapoor, Hannah A.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium abscessus (MAB) is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for infections in immunocompromised or immunosuppressed patients. Even with long-term treatment with multiple antibiotics, MAB pulmonary infections have high rates of treatment failure. Within the host, MAB is phagocytosed by key innate immune cells macrophages. The TLR2 and TLR4 are two critical...

Functional status and fall risk among older adult participants in community-based exercise programs : Do Better Bones & Balance® participants outperform their peers?

Creator:: Trevis, Lauren E.
Abstract:: Purpose: This study examines the relationship between community-based fitness class participation and risk for falls in adults aged 55 or older. Our aim was to compare scores on fall risk factors between community-based Better Bones & Balance® (BBB) participants and active peers who engage in other (non-BBB) community-based fitness classes....

Tracing the Pacific Islander Diaspora in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Yarbrough, Nicole
Abstract:: The Pacific Islander diaspora in the Pacific Northwest United States is a unique community characterized by diverse cultures, experiences, and motivations for migration. This study aimed to explore the narratives of individuals from different Pacific Islander backgrounds residing in Oregon, shedding light on their reasons for migration and the impact...

An Analysis of U.S. News Media Coverage of E-Cigarettes: Does a Youth Epidemic Make a Difference?

Creator:: Winett, Julia R.
Abstract:: Rates of electronic cigarettes (or “e-cigarettes”) use among youth are so high that the Surgeon General declared them to be of “epidemic proportions” (A Report of the Surgeon General, 2012). If these rates go unchanged, e-cigarettes will likely be responsible for the creation of a new generation of combustible cigarette...

Drug Discovery in Soil Bacteria from Unique Ecosystems of India and Indonesia

Creator:: Tran, Victor
Abstract:: Natural products isolated from bacteria can be developed into new therapeutic agents. The soil bacteria actinomycetes, specifically the Streptomyces species, are prolific producers of antibiotics. This thesis is composed of two projects which focus on novel drug discovery from soil bacteria collected from the Indonesian Black Water Ecosystem (the ICBB...
