Development of advanced chemometric methods for the analysis of deep-UV resonance Raman spectra of proteins
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Ultra violet resonance Raman (UVRR) is a powerful spectroscopic technique for determining the secondary structural content of proteins in solution. ...
Structural, biochemical, and inhibition studies of proline biosynthetic enzymes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase (PYCR) is the final enzyme in proline biosynthesis, catalyzing the NAD(P)H-dependent reduction of [Delta]1-pyrroli ...
Strategies for metal colloidal nancrystal synthesis in sustainable media
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
and functionalities of such nanomaterials. This dissertation reports strategies for metal colloidal nanocrystal synthesis in sustainable media and aims to build a foundation for understanding how to tailor eco-friendly IL and DES fluids to control the growth of metal...
The use of pluripotent stem cells as a model for early human placentation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
) and inhibiting the signaling pathways that maintain the pluripotent phenotype (FGF2 and ACTIVIN A). The central theme of my dissertation has been to use these stem cellderived TB to model the early placental structure known as the primitive syncytium. My research...
Diels-alder reactions of a cyclopentadienone derivative
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
An ester derivative of cyclopentadienone, a very reactive species, was generated from methyl-2-bromo-3-oxocyclopent-1-enecarboxylate (96) which dimerized instantaneously and decarbonylated to generate an indanone (97). ...
Radionuclide production and separation techniques for radiopharmaceutical development and nuclear waste processing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Research Reactor (MURR) has demonstrated the therapeutic analogue, 77As, can be produced routinely from 76Ge targets, but the diagnostic analogue, 72As, can be made available from the decay of 72Se in the form of a 72Se/72As generator. This research...
Insights into atomic orbital polarization in polyatomic dissociation from DC slide velocity map imaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] "The field of chemical reaction dynamics is based upon understanding the details of elementary chemical reactions. It seeks to answer fundamental ...
Anisotropic organic materials : ferroelectric crystals and spin-polarized radicals
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
dipole alignment with computations and experiments. The last chapter of the dissertation is concerned with an entirely different topic, namely the challenges of preparing college students for science communication. In Chapter 7, the design and development...
2,1-Benzothiazines : preparation and reactivity
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The synthesis of chiral ligands to tune the reactivity and stereoselectivity of many catalytic asymmetric reactions has been given considerable attention in synthetic organic chemistry over the past decade. This report ...
(4+3)-cycloaddition chemists of oxidopyridinium ions and related study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
The (4+3)-cycloaddition reaction is a cycloaddition between a 4-atom species and a 3-atom species to form a seven-membered ring. This reaction results in the formation of seven-membered rings. Our research expanded the ...
