  • The stability of pelargonidin-based anthocyanins in natural and model systems

    Creator:
    Garzon, G. Astrid
    Abstract:
    Pelargonidin 3-glucoside (pgd 3-glu), pelargonidin 3-sophoroside (pgd 3-soph), and pelargonidin 3-sophoroside 5-glucoside acylated with cinnamic and malonic acids (acyl-pgd 3-soph 5-glu) were extracted from strawberries (Fragaria anannassa cv, Totem), nasturtium flowers (Tropaeolum majus), and radish peel (Raphanus sativus L. cv, fuego), respectively. Their stability was studied in natural and model...

  • Science Through the Lens of Art

    Creator:
    Garton, Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    There is a connection between science and art. This study is specifically looking at the connection between soil science, art, and biochemistry. The traditional display of research in the sciences is in a written form such as a manuscript or journal article. To challenge this traditional presentation of scientific knowledge...

  • Antioxidant potential of yeast containing beer

    Creator:
    Morris, Edward E.
    Abstract:
    It has been suggested that cellular damage from oxygen radicals is one of the processes leading to cardio-vascular disease and cancer. Natural antioxidants prevent uncontrolled oxidative reactions by decreasing molecular oxygen levels, scavenging chain-initiating and chain-propagating free radicals, chelating metals, or decomposing peroxides. Beer is rich in antioxidants, derived both...

  • Exploring the structural dynamics of human understanding : an historico-philosophical analysis of the problem of meaning in Heidegger and Bohr

    Creator:
    Tattersall, Mason
    Abstract:
    This dissertation explores the structural dynamics of human understanding and particularly the concept of meaning and its connections to concepts of ultimate ground, necessity and contingency, language, and perception. It focuses on the history of the concept of meaning in early twentieth-century European physics and philosophy, through an analysis of...

  • Characterization of the Zea mays ssp. mays TOUSLED-like kinases

    Creator:
    Owusu, Ethel Owusuwaa
    Abstract:
    This dissertation describes the cloning and characterization of the TOUSLEDlike kinases genes of maize (ZmTLKs). The TOUSLED-like kinases (TLKs) are a conserved family of nuclear Ser/Thr kinases in higher eukaryotes. The maize genome has three TOUSLED-like kinase genes (ZmTLK1, ZmTLK2, and ZmTLK3). Based upon sequence similarity, the ZmTLKs are divided...

  • Characterization of acid sensing ion channel (ASIC) in mouse olfactory bulb

    Creator:
    Kratzer, Eric Martin
    Abstract:
    This study examined the role of acid- sensing ion channels (ASICs) in interneuron synaptic modulation. ASICS are ultra fine discriminators of acidic conditions in the neuronal microenvironment. Each ASIC subunit isoform has innate, subtly different electrophysiological properties and tissue distributions. Structurally, ASICs may form homo- or heteromeric channels, yielding combinatorial...
