Edwards, Jennifer Lynn | Application of a TBHP-mediated Wacker-type oxidation to internal alkenes | The Wacker oxidation allows access to methyl ketones from terminal alkenes. This transformation is important for industrial, synthetic, and medicinal chemists, as carbonyls are present in many natural and pharmaceutical products. With the carbonyl, a wide variety of reactions become available, such ... | Wacker-type oxidatioin - Research; TBHP | 2013-05 |

Pecchia-Bekkum, Annika | Applications of controlled DNA assembly and disassembly in biosensing and responsive drug delivery | Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) provides many exciting functions outside of simply encoding genetic information. Herein, we report two techniques to control the assembly and disassembly of nucleic acids. Within these techniques, DNA is used as a programmable material for biosensing and drug delivery. In... | Nucleic acids - Biotechnology | 2013-08 |

Burga, Carlos Alberto | Binary superlattices of semiconductor nanocrystals : a path towards possible high-temperature superconductivity | This thesis provides a platform to experimentally test Dr. Daniel Mattis' theoretical work on the possible superconductive behavior of nanostructured intrinsic semiconductors1-2. The theoretical work hinged on the nano-scale architecture of semiconductors. Therefore, using various types of semicondu... | Semiconductor nanocrystals; Superconductivity; Superlattices as materials | 2013-05 |

Rose, Steven | Biofuel cells for self powered arsenic detection | Research in the Minteer group has centered on procedures for immobilizing enzymes and organelles on carbon electrodes for use in sensory and fuel cell applications. Similar strategies have been used to prepare a series of electrodes capable of pyruvate oxidation which, in the presence of arsenic, wi... | Fuel cells; Arsenic - Detection | 2013-05 |

Simonsen, Kyle | Breast cancer knowledge and attitudes among women in Armenia | Background: Breast cancer, the most common invasive cancer among women, has high incidence and mortality rates among women in the Republic of Armenia. Advanced stage at detection limits treatment options and contributes to high morbidity and mortality. Understanding women's breast cancer knowledge a... | Breast - Cancer; Breast - Cancer - Patients - Attitudes; Breast - Cancer - Patients - Armenia (Republic) | 2013-07 |

Nicolo, Tera | Characterization of mitochondria-modified electrodes | In order to develop an herbicide sensor, yeast, potato, and bovine heart mitochondria were isolated and immobilized onto Toray paper electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry showed two redox peaks at 186 ± 14 mV vs. SCE and -357 ± 24 mV vs. SCE with an E1/2 of -128 mV. Scan rate studies suggested the proces... | Electrodes; Herbicides - Detection | 2013-05 |
