Oxytocin was confirmed to have an impact of the PIP2 breakdown in ovine endometrial tissue. This experiment took two groups of ovariectomized ewes (n=5) and administered a shortened estrus cycle hormone regiment. It was found that, independent of the hormone treatments, especially P4, OT caused a small increase in the...

This is a comparative analysis of groundwater conflict and surface water conflict in Idaho from 1950-2019. The work looks at Idaho's exceptional experience with water and demonstrates that water conflict in Idaho is different than in other PNW states. The work outlines that Idaho's water conflict is almost solely focused...
This thesis is concerned with the development of a unique
parallel sort-merge system suitable for implementation in VLSI.
Two new sorting subsystems, a high performance VLSI sorter and a
four-way merger, were also realized during the development
process. In addition, the analysis of several existing parallel sorting
architectures and algorithms...
Sorting is typically a compute intensive operation used in many
areas of industry. With improved technology, both in the VLSI and CAE
areas, we can afford to develop hardware based database computers to
move the work load off the main computer. In this thesis the
architecture of a VLSI parallel...
A model of acute glutamate- and domoate-induced toxicity was developed and characterized in cultured rat cerebellar granule cells (CGCs) using experimental conditions which preserve the voltage-dependency of NMDA receptor function. Glutamate, which is normally non-toxic to CGCs in physiologic media (pH 7.4), was shown to induce a cytotoxic response after...
