Detection of actinides via nuclear isomer de-excitation

Creator:: Francy, Christopher J.
Abstract:: The detection of illicit weapons-grade nuclear material is a significant technical challenge receiving a great deal of attention in the nuclear community. A proposed solution is to actively bombard the material under investigation with neutrons, populating nuclear isomers in any potential fissile material. These isomers decay quickly, releasing gamma rays...

Accelerating Power-to-Gas Energy Storage Through PEM Electrolyzer Development and Technoeconomic Forecasting

Creator:: Taie, Zachary
Abstract:: There is strong interest in the energy community to develop technologies that can diffuse low-cost, renewably generated electricity into difficult and slow to decarbonize sectors. One of the emerging areas of interest is renewable natural gas (RNG). RNG has low or no associated net greenhouse gas emissions and can be...

Total Synthesis of Tryptamine Alkaloids from the Arundo and Leuconotis Genera

Creator:: Ferreira, Andrew
Abstract:: The first part of this manuscript is about the total synthesis of the Arundo donax bis(indole) natural products. The A. donax alkaloids were prepared using the first example of an ynindole Diels–Alder reaction. Each were then separated, isolated, and determined to have stable enantiomeric conformations at room temperature (Chen, J.;...

Is the laboratory growth of Pacific oyster spat, Crassostrea gigas, exposed to varying salinities, predictive of their growth in the estuary?

Creator:: Brooks, Christopher
Abstract:: Results of this study suggest that laboratory growth of full-sib families of five month old Pacific oyster spat can be predictive of growth to market size at different grow-out sites. Seven to ten millimeter spat were selected from each of fifteen full-sib families and commercially available polyploids. Each family was...

Identification of candidate genes for survival and their use in predicting field performance of Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas families in coastal waters

Creator:: Lang, Robert Paul
Abstract:: Summer mortality of farmed Pacific oysters causes financial losses for shellfish growers, and selective breeding to improve survival of offspring is a promising way to reduce losses. This dissertation has two objectives to assist the development of tools for use in selective breeding programs. Objective 1: Identify candidate genes for...

Differences in Evolutionary History and Ploidy Type Shape the Interactions of Populus tremuloides Michx. with Climate

Creator:: Greer, Burke Thomas
Abstract:: Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx) is a species with high phenotypic plasticity and a broad distribution that, in the last decade, has experienced climate stress-induced mortality called Sudden Aspen Decline (SAD). In order to help mitigate the effects of SAD in the future, we need a better understanding of aspen’s...

Development and Evaluation of a Static Land-Based Aquaculture System for Pacific Dulse (Devaleraea mollis): Environmental and Nutrient Requirements

Creator:: Chatfield, Marcus W.
Abstract:: Devaleraea mollis (Pacific Dulse) is becoming a popular food for human consumption. Previously, Pacific Dulse has been used as a nutrient source for cultured abalone species, with some historical food use by indigenous peoples, while the closely related Atlantic dulse (Palmaria palmata) has a long-documented history of use in cuisine...

Utilization of dietary protein by the mussel, Mytilus edulis trossulus (Linnaeus 1758)

Creator:: Kreeger, Daniel A.
Abstract:: Protein microcapsules (PM) were developed as a tool for investigating aspects of dietary protein utilization by mussels, Mytilus edulis trossulus. Digestion of PM in vitro by protease, trypsin, amylase and extracts from the gut of mussels varied significantly depending on the type of protein encapsulated or whether carbohydrates were added...

Characterization of putative recognition components of echinoderm coelomic fluid: agglutinins in Strongylocentrotus purpuratus

Creator:: Pierce, Laura G.
Abstract:: Due to an interest in the evolutionary origins of vertebrate mechanisms of immunorecognition, researchers have frequently turned to deuterostome invertebrates as model organisms. The purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea), was selected for this study of putative immunorecognition molecules in a deuterostome invertebrate. Hemagglutinins, molecules which agglutinate red blood...

Differential Allele Expression of SOD1 in Biomphalaria glabrata

Creator:: Carolla, Samantha M.
Abstract:: The freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata serves as the intermediate host of the blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni. Previous studies using the 13-16-R1 strain of B. glabrata demonstrated an association between the gene encoding Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) and susceptibility/resistance to the parasite. This association is assumed to involve a polymorphism that...
