Wearable Bio-Impedance Sensing Methods for Continuous Monitoring of Hemodynamic Parameters
(2021-08-25)
Continuous monitoring of hemodynamic parameters such as blood pressure (BP) provides significant advantages in predicting future cardiovascular disease. Traditional BP measurement methods are based on a cuff, which is ...
Multiplexed Sensing System for Biomolecules Using Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
(2021-10-22)
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a critical disease that affects a large population and has a high rate of mortality. Development of a point-of-care (POC) system for the detection of a biomarker panel composed of cardiac ...
Menaquinone Biosynthesis: Mechanistic Studies on 5,8-Dihydroxy-2-Naphthoate Synthase and Dehypoxanthine Futalosine Cyclase
(2021-08-30)
This work details mechanistic studies of two enzymes in the futalosine dependent biosynthetic pathway of menaquinone (vitamin K), 5,8-Dihydroxy-2- naphthoate synthase (MqnD) and dehypoxanthine futalosine cyclase (MqnC). ...
Public Education Armed Employee Policy, a State by State Content Analysis
(2021-10-06)
Nearly every school year there is another mass shooting or tragic violent act that is being reported by news stations throughout the United States. Every time this occurs our community members, educational leaders, teachers ...
Development of Modular High-Resolution Ion Mobility Orbitrap Platforms for Native Mass Spectrometry
(2021-10-28)
Native ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) has evolved into a multifunctional tool for the characterization and analysis of native intact protein complexes. Structural information can be inferred by the rotationally-averaged ...
Palynostratigraphic Constraints on the Upper Tanezzuft and Akakus Formations in the Ghadamis Basin of Libya
(2021-10-12)
The Ghadamis Basin in northwest Libya has generated a tremendous amount of oil and gas, sourced primarily from the lower Silurian anoxic black shales (aka ‘hot shales’) at the base of the Tanezzuft Formation. These dark ...
Preliminary Results of the Implementation of Multiphase Plasma Hydrocarbon Processing in Field Attained Heavy Oils
(2022-01-14)
Global energy demand continues to rise annually with projections of 50% by 2050. The demand of petroleum and other liquid fuel will increase by 25% and natural gas by 45% within this period of time. Conventional crude oils ...
