Creator:: Geringer, Mark K.
Abstract:: In this work, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are computationally represented, generated, and evaluated. The organic linker molecules are represented as graphs and use graph grammars where the atoms are represented by nodes and the bonds are represented by arcs. The grammar rules that dictate the graph generation process work on the...

Abstract:: This research was undertaken to develop a sensitive, selective, and rapid analytical method to measure ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl sulfate (EtS) in urine as urinary biomarkers of alcohol exposure. Large-volume injection (LVI) coupled with liquid chromatography / electrospray tandem mass spectrometry was used to eliminate the need for either...

Creator:: Tennico, Yolanda H.
Abstract:: Over the last decade, the use of highly branched macromolecules, called dendrimers, is emerging. Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers, in particular, have attracted high interest due to their unique properties, such as well-defined size, shape, and solubility in water. Our group, as part of an interdisciplinary team, is currently working on developing...

Creator:: Davila-Santiago, Emmanuel
Abstract:: Water bodies act as chemical data loggers that contain tens of thousands of molecules that represent the sum of the biological, chemical, and physical processes occurring within a watershed. We hypothesize that unique chemical signatures present within a water sample can be informative of upstream processes. By extracting non-polar organic...

Creator:: Fei, Xiaobo
Abstract:: Molecular genetic and enzymological techniques have been employed to study antibiotic biosynthesis. The nonproteinogenic amino acid capreomycidine is the signature residue found in the tuberactinomycin family of antitubercular peptide antibiotics and an important element of the pharmacophore. Recombinant VioG, a single module peptide synthetase from the viomycin gene cluster cloned...
