A Cr₂0₃, and cellulose fibre mixture was used with cattle, in
three grazing and two semi-restricted experiments, to study the mode
of its excretion, the possibility of using it in a once-daily dosing and
grab-sample regime to estimate fecal output and in a field experiment
to test a hypothesis involving...
Dendrimers are well-defined, polymeric nanomaterials currently being investigated for their biomedical applications. Initially, higher generation (size) dendrimers were of interest because of their drug carrying capacity. However, increased generation was associated with increased toxicity. The objective of the present study was to investigate the role of surface charge and generation...
Dendrimers are well-defined, polymeric nanomaterials currently being investigated for biomedical applications such as medical imaging, gene therapy, and tissue targeted therapy. Initially, higher generation (size) dendrimers were of interest because of their drug carrying capacity. However, increased generation was associated with increased toxicity. The majority of studies exploring dendrimer toxicity...
Inherent nanomaterial characteristics, composition,
surface chemistry, and primary particle size,
are known to impact particle stability, uptake, and
toxicity. Nanocomposites challenge our ability to predict
nanoparticle reactivity in biological systems if they
are composed of materials with contrasting relative
toxicities. We hypothesized that toxicity would be
dominated by the nanoparticle...

Currently, the Port of Portland is developing a 9, 410 acre area
at the confluence of the Columbia and Willamette Rivers in Multnomah
County, Oregon. This area will be developed for industrial, commercial,
and recreational use. The recreational development in the
North Portland Peninsula area, including the Rivergate Industrial
District,...
