Imaging structurual and mechanical properties in cardiovascular tissue using optical polarization tractography
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the US. Every 36 seconds, one person dies from CVD [1]. Structural deficiencies and secondary changes induced by either abnormal functioning ...
Degradation of the veterinary antibiotics in swine manure via anaerobic digestion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Antimicrobial resistance is becoming an imminent danger for human health, in part because of excessive consumption of antibiotics in the animal industry. Laboratory-scale anaerobic digesters (ADs) were utilized to investigate ...
Photoacoustic detection of metastatic melanoma in the human circulatory system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Detection of disseminating tumor cells can function as an early warning system, alerting the metastatic spread or recurrence of the disease. Early detection of such cells can result in preventative treatment of the disease ...
Climate and land use effects on hydrologic processes and water allocation in a primarily rain-fed, agricultural watershed
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] There is a need to raise our understanding of the impact of climate variability and change on hydrologic processes at the watershed scale. This is important, particularly...
Lignin dissolution in deep eutectic solvents : a molecular dynamics study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have shown great potential on lignocellulosic biomass pretreatment. Many DESs are capable of extracting lignin from biomass and dissolving hemicellulose while preserving most of cellulose in ...
Ion-selective electrodes for simultaneous real-time analysis for soil macronutrients
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
, and of cobalt rod-based phosphate ISEs were satisfactory for measuring N, P, and K ions over typical ranges of soil concentrations. The nitrate ISEs, when used in conjunction with the Kelowna extractant (0.25M CH₃COOH + 0.015M NH₄F), provided soil NO₃-N values...
Creating a zero-waste soy processing system and developing vitamin B12 fortified non-GMO high oleic soy-based products using encapsulation technology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
temperature stability factor to our diet due to their high temperature tolerance. In line with sustainability standards, a newly developed variety at the University of Missouri and the USDA (non-GMO-HO soybean). The soybean processing industry generates...
