Characterization of Clinically Isolated Clostridium Difficile Strain LC5624
(2018-04-23)
Clostridioides difficile is a Gram-positive, anaerobic, spore-forming pathogen. Due to, in part, the highly transmissible spore morphotype, C. difficile infections (CDI) frequently occur in cycles of recurring disease that ...
Don't Call Me "It": Examining the Relationship Between Experiences of Child Abuse and Creativity as an Adult
(2010-07-14)
Researchers have conducted numerous studies examining the effects of one?s home life on
future success; however, only a small portion of that research covers the specific effects
that negative home environments can have ...
Structural and bonding trends in platinum-carbon clusters
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)
Density functional calculations with the B3-LYP functional were used to optimize the platinum-carbon cationic clusters, PtCx+, 1=x=16, in both the doublet and quartet states of the linear, fan, open-ring, closed ring, and ...
PEBBLE-BED NUCLEAR REACTOR SYSTEM PHYSICS AND FUEL UTILIZATION
(2011-04-20)
The Generation IV Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PMBR) design may be used for electricity production, co-generation applications (industrial heat, hydrogen production, desalination, etc.), and could potentially eliminate some ...
Comparing Accuracy and Time Complexity of Machine Learning Algorithms for Eye Gesture Recognition
(2018-05-15)
The eye motion data can be utilized to perform behavior analysis and improve common applications, such as accessible HCI, interactive interface, marketing, and remote-controlling. This research project compares accuracy ...
Structure-Based Drug Discovery Against the Caseinolytic Protease From Mycobacterium tuberculosis
(2018-05-02)
Antibacterial drug resistance is a major factor in the increasing rate of failure to successfully treat diseases such as tuberculosis (TB). The World Health Organization estimates that in 2015 a total of 10.4 million new ...
The Effects of Sex on Spinal Cord Injury Recovery Following Noxious Input
(2018-04-19)
Spinal cord injuries (SCI) are often the result of traumatic accidents resulting in polytrauma. Pain input from associated injuries has been shown to negatively impair locomotor recovery and foster the development of ...
A Genetic Screen for High-Copy Suppressors of the Growth Defect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae set1 Null Mutants Under Histidine Starvation Conditions
(2018-04-19)
Previous research indicates that Set1 is the catalytically active protein in COMPASS, a protein methyltransferase complex associated with transcription in budding yeast cells. However, the mechanistic role that Set1 and ...
The Effects of Genetic Information on Feelings of Authenticity
(2019-04-23)
While previous research has focused on the effects of genetic information on behavior and perceptions of phenotypes, this research examines the subjective experiences associated with believing that one’s behavior is ...
Future Time Perspective and Goal Setting Among College Students: A Measurement for the Dimensions of Future Time Perspective
(2019-04-26)
The perceptions of the future, including attitudes, beliefs, and actions toward it, have been formalized into a construct known as Future Time Perspective (FTP). The purpose of this study was to determine if college students’ ...
