Assessment of estuarine habitats for resident and estuarine-dependent species: tools for conservation and management
(2009-05-15)
My research in coastal Ecuador and the northern Gulf of Mexico (GOM)
elucidated differences in value of shallow estuarine habitats for fishes and invertebrates.
I focused on mangrove and tidal river habitats in Ecuador, ...
HPLC separation of amines with a zirconia-based column coupled to a gas- phase chemiluminescence nitrogen specific detector (CLND)
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Gas phase chemiluminescence nitrogen specific detector (CLND)is used for the direct analysis of underivatized nitrogen-containing components such as alkylamines that can not be detected by the so called universal HPLC ...
Mechanisms of growth inhibition induced by methylene-substituted and ring-substituted dims in breast cancer cells
(2009-05-15)
One in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States and
estrogen receptor (ER) status largely influences the type and subsequent success of
treatment employed. Although ER-positive breast cancer can ...
A Case Study of Food Safety Culture Within a Retailer Corporate Culture
(2011-02-22)
The retail business has been negatively affected due to the increasing customer concerns about food safety and the recent events related to microbiological and chemical contamination of food products, such as the melamine ...
Identification, Distribution and Control of an Invasive Pest Ant, Paratrechina sp. (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), in Texas
(2010-01-16)
Invasive species are capable of causing considerable damage to natural ecosystems, agricultures and economies throughout the world. These invasive species must be identified and adequate control measures should be investigated ...
A Study of Heat Pump Fin Staged Evaporators Under Frosting Conditions
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This dissertation provides a detailed description of the research work completed on fin staged heat
exchangers. The effects of staging fin on the frosting performance of heat pump evaporators and the
whole heat pump ...
Genetic and dietary effects on the physical properties, assembly and secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
The physical properties (i.e., mass, particle diameter and composition) of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins (apoB-LP) are a major determinant of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk. The ...
An assessment of middle grades preservice teachers' mathematics knowledge for teaching
(2009-06-02)
The overall purpose of this concurrent mixed methods study was to develop an
online performance assessment using content questions taken from a reputable seventh and
eighth grade standardized assessment that effectively ...
Dynamic fluorescence imaging with molecular agents for cancer detection
(2009-05-15)
Non-invasive dynamic optical imaging of small animals requires the
development of a novel fluorescence imaging modality. Herein, fluorescence imaging is
demonstrated with sub-second camera integration times using agents ...
Molecular systematics and phylogeography of the dusky dolphin (Lagenorhynchus obscurus) derived from nuclear and mitochondrial loci
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
This study presents evidence from mitochondrial and nuclear loci that there is
genetic divergence among and within geographic populations of Lagenorhynchus
obscurus. The effect of seasonal variation on the genetic structure ...
