A Photographic Atlas to the Early Development of the Bullhead Minnow (Pimephales vigilax)
(2013-12-16)
The identification of larval fishes is difficult due to their small size and transparent nature. Deciphering between different species placed within the same genus or even family can prove near impossible. Literature ...
Testing the Theory of Consumer Interest
(2014-04-11)
The purpose of this study was to identify elements of the theory of consumer interest, as described by Geller (2011), and the levels of which they appear in television commercials viewed by participants born in the Millennial ...
A Genetic Dissection of Mitochondrial Respiratory Chain Biogenesis
(2014-04-08)
Mitochondria house the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC), the main site for cellular respiration and energy production. The MRC consists of five large protein complexes (I-V) in
the inner mitochondrial membrane. Despite ...
IMPACT OF IBUPROFEN ON THE BONE RESPONSE TO SIMULATED RESISTANCE TRAINING
(2011-05-06)
The purpose of this research project was to determine the overall effects of ibuprofen on bone formation in response to simulated resistance training in adult female rats. Ibuprofen is a common and generally safe non-steroidal ...
Infaunal abundance in restored and reference marshes of the northwestern Gulf of Mexico
(2011-05-04)
One widely accepted approach to mitigate the loss of natural marsh habitat is to restore marshes in areas that were previously open water. To better understand the infaunal
community within restored marshes, infauna were ...
INVESTIGATION OF CORDAITEAN PHYLOGENESIS WITH CORDAITEAN SEEDS
(2012-05-03)
Cordaiteans are a group of plants present during the Carboniferous and Permian; the group is held together largely by the characteristic leaves. Cordaiteans are gymnosperms (seed-bearing plants). The group includes many ...
INVESTIGATION OF UNCOUPLED EFFECT OF MESH AND MODULUS ON MESENCHYMAL STEM CELL DIFFERENTIATION
(2012-05-02)
Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that aims to restore, maintain, or improve tissue function. Cells are incorporated into a scaffold that acts as a niche for the cells while they proliferate and differentiate ...
Analysis of anti-inflammatory effects of phytochemicals from prickly pear fruit (Opuntia spp.) in human cell culture
(2012-05-08)
Prickly pear is a long-domesticated cactus crop that is important in agricultural economies throughout arid and semiarid parts of the world. Secondary plant compounds found in similar consumable fruits and vegetables have ...
Pollen Dispersion in Relation to Meteorological Conditions, Seasonality, Location and Elevation in College Station, Texas, USA
(2012-04-30)
Pollen deposition has an immense effect on air quality and human health. There is new interest linking biogenic aerosols to possibly being cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). This field experiment focuses on pollen emission ...
TiN Coatings on Fuel Cladding Tube
(2012-05-04)
In this study, TiN coatings were deposited on HT-9 and MA957 stainless-steel tubes and polished bars. In order to deposit TiN coatings on those certain length tubes, we need to modify our stage in old chamber. We designed ...
