The future of agricultural research depends on data. The sheer volume of agricultural biological data being produced today makes excellent data management essential. Governmental agencies, publishers and science funders require datamanagement plans for publicly funded research. Furthermore, the value of data increases exponentially when they are properly stored, described, integrated...
In short, the brewing process uses hot water to extract fermentable sugars from malt to make a wort that is bittered by hops and finally fermented by yeast to produce beer. The four key ingredients in brewing are malt, water, hops, and yeast. Malt is perhaps the key ingredient, as...
We report vibrational information of both the first electronically excited state and the ground
cationic state of jet-cooled triphenylene via the techniques of resonantly enhanced multiphoton
ionization (REMPI) and zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy. The first excited
electronic state S₁ of the neutral molecule is of A₁' symmetry and...
In this dissertation, I present electronic spectra of a few polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs): tetracene, pentacene, pyrene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene and benzo[a]pyrene using resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) and zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy. The work of tetracene and pentacene also combine a laser desorption source with a ZEKE spectrometer, demonstrating...
Mathematical modeling plays a pivotal role in understanding the mechanism of radiation-induced cellular effects, and also in quantifying the radiation risk to the cell. However, there are still compelling challenges facing the conventional modeling in radiobiology, such as lacking a generalized theory structure of quantifying target effect and non-target effect...
Imaging Ca²⁺ dynamics in living systems holds great
potential to advance neuroscience and cellular biology. G-GECO1.1
is an intensiometric fluorescent protein Ca²⁺-biosensor with a Thr-Tyr-Gly chromophore. The protonated chromophore emits green
upon photoexcitation via excited-state proton transfer (ESPT). Upon
Ca²⁺ binding, a significant population of the chromophores becomes
deprotonated. It...
The state of Oregon is divided in important ways along rural and urban lines, including the way people make a living, individual and group relationships with the natural world, political ideologies, and personal values. This rural-urban divide has assisted policymakers in making decisions that balance the needs of Oregonians on...
