Docosahexaenoic acid and butyrate synergistically modulate intracellular calcium compartmentalization to induce colonocyte apoptosis
(2009-05-15)
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) from fish oil, and butyrate, a short-chain
fatty acid fiber-fermentation product, protect against colon tumorigenesis in part by
coordinately inducing apoptosis. We have demonstrated ...
Amorphous silicon thin film transistor as nonvolatile device.
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
n-channel and p-channel amorphous-silicon thin-film transistors (a-Si:H TFTs)
with copper electrodes prepared by a novel plasma etching process have been fabricated
and studied. Their characteristics are similar to those ...
The use of PCR-based methodologies to characterize salmonella serotypes of poultry origin
(2009-05-15)
Three studies were conducted to investigate the use of molecular techniques to
identify Salmonella serotypes in poultry. In the first experiment, two polymerase chain
reaction (PCR)-based techniques: denaturing gradient ...
Novel mechanisms for regulating polyphosphate metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
To ensure a continuous supply of phosphate, living organisms have devised complex mechanisms to regulate the uptake and subsequent utilization of this essential nutrient. An important aspect of phosphate metabolism is the ...
CMOS RF front-end design for terrestrial and mobile digital television systems
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
With the increasing demand for high quality TV service, digital television (DTV) is
replacing the conventional analog television. DTV tuner is one of the most critical blocks
of the DTV receiver system; it down-converts ...
Metal catalyzed copolymerization processes involving carbon oxides as substrates
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Studies concerning two different copolymerization processes are detailed in this
dissertation: propylene oxide/CO2 coupling to afford poly(propylene carbonate) and Nbutylaziridine/
CO coupling to afford poly-??-butylalanoid. ...
Exact polynomial system solving for robust geometric computation
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
I describe an exact method for computing roots of a system of multivariate
polynomials with rational coefficients, called the rational univariate reduction. This
method enables performance of exact algebraic computation ...
Analog integrated circuit design techniques for high-speed signal processing in communications systems
(2009-05-15)
This work presents design techniques for the implementation of high-speed analog
integrated circuits for wireless and wireline communications systems.
Limitations commonly found in high-speed switched-capacitor (SC) circuits ...
Secure attachment, self-esteem, and optimism as predictors of positive body mage in women
(2009-05-15)
This correlational cross-sectional study investigated body image from a positive
psychology viewpoint by examining variables that were predicted to contribute to
positive body image in women and testing a model describing ...
Soil microbial response to glyphosate-base cotton pest management systems
(2009-05-15)
Currently, 74% of cotton acres in the United States are planted with glyphosatetolerant
varieties. The average glyphosate-tolerant cotton crop is treated with glyphosate
2.1 times each year in addition to other herbicides, ...
