Studies towards the total synthesis of (−)-kendomycin (1), a bacterial metabolite with
a unique molecular architecture and pronounced biological activity, are described. These
studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediate 208, containing all of the
carbon atoms of 1.

The multistage model of carcinogenesis states that an accumulation of mutations in genes that are important for maintaining cellular homeostasis may lead to cancer. A specific type of mutation observed in particular types of cancer is the CC-->TT mutation found in the TP53 gene of patients with basal or squamous...
Aquatic fecal contamination from non-point sources impairs environmental health and serves as a vehicle for transmission of waterborne disease, resulting in economic losses worldwide. Accurate methods of diagnosing fecal pollution and its source are needed to prevent human exposure, remediate pollution, and reduce economic impacts. In order to obtain this...
Forest growth models in the Pacific Northwest are predominantly empirical. Predictions of yield under alternative silvicultural regimes cannot rely completely on field trials; yet empirical growth models are often inadequate for extrapolating untested regimes and genotypes. The limitations of current models include (1) long time-steps (e.g. 5-10 years); (2) insufficient...
The continued scaling of deep-submicron CMOS technology enables low-voltage high-frequency phase-locked loops (PLLs) to be fully integrated in complex mixed-signal systems. However, fluctuations due to the manufacturing process and variations in
environmental conditions, such as supply voltage and temperature, are also significantly increased. As a result, the performance of PLLs...
Vaccinia virus is the prototypic member of the Orthopoxvirus genus. It undergoes a complex replication process where a key step in the transition from immature virion to intracellular mature virion is the cleavage of the major core protein precursors. The product of the I7L open reading frame (ORF) is a...
With the growing demand for portable/consumer electronics, such as digital
audio/video (AV), the downscaling of device dimensions, which enables the
integration of an increasing number of transistors in a single chip, is mandatory.
This trend also continuously pushes the power supply voltage down to reduce the
power consumption and improve...
The critical contribution of this dissertation is to provide a better
understanding of the fundamental Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) growth
kinetic and mechanism for the well known II-VI semiconductor CdS using the
newly developed continuous flow microreactor. This continuous flow microreactor
provides the temporal resolution to control the homogeneous reaction...
