A holographic interferometry study of an axisymmetric shock-wave/boundary-layer strong interaction flow
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1986)
An experimental study of the axisymmetric shock-wave/ turbulent boundary-layer strong-interaction flow generated in the vicinity of a cylinder-cone intersection has been conducted. The present data are useful in the ...
The effect of environment on seed composition of tofu and natto soybean cultivars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
in Missouri also affected seed composition. Sucrose was highest at the Columbia location and stachyose was lowest at Oran for both years. Sucrose was negatively correlated to August temperatures in 2004 and 2005. These results can aid in producing management...
Outdoor relief by the counties of Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1909)
In the following pages the results of a somewhat isolated study of outdoor relief are presented. The general value of the study probably lies in the novel view it affords of a public relief system in the earlier stages of ...
Radionuclide production and separation techniques for radiopharmaceutical development and nuclear waste processing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] With increasing cancer incident rates and advancements in nuclear medicine, the demand for optimizing pathways to produce radionuclides or investigating new radionuclides...
Perspectives of informal caregivers on using in-home technology to monitor activities of person with serious mental illness
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
As a result of the U.S deinstitutionalization policy of the 1960's persons with serious mental illness often live with and rely upon family members and friends to serve as informal caregivers. The purpose of this study was ...
Amphibian metamorphosis and juvenile terrestrial performance following chronic cadmium exposure in the aquatic environment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
[mu]g Cd/L. The experimental endpoints were survival, mass and age at metamorphosis, and whole body Cd content. Both species had a decrease in survival and increase in larval period and Cd content with increasing aqueous Cd concentration. However...
An economic analysis of the agricultural development potential for Southern Honduras
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1975)
for various resources r which would provide guidance for making investment decisions; and (3) to derive policy recommendations for the purpose of agricultural development in Southern Honduras. A survey of 449 randomly selected sample farms, including 686...
Monitoring of an urban level spreader as part of the collaborative adaptive management process
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Irregular flows, such as the high flows caused by stormwater runoff after a rain event are a major cause of stream impairment in urbanized watersheds. The Hinkson Creek CAM (Collaborative Adaptive Management) approach is ...
The influence of host genetics, virome, and gut microbiota transfer methods in mouse model reproducibility
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Gut microbiome (GM), the complex community that combines all bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi located in the gut of human or animal, plays a significant role in host health and disease. Animal model are widely used ...
Involvement of aberrant chromosome architecture and locus-specific vulnerability to DNA methylation epimutations in bovine large offspring syndrome
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
and transcriptome project in which samples from LOS and BWS will be analyzed together to further shed light into the etiology of these syndromes, knowledge that will equally help Agriculture and Biomedicine. I anticipate submitting this manuscript for peer review...
New perspective on the role of conceptus estrogens in conceptus development, maternal recognition, and the establishment of pregnancy in pigs.
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The proposed signal for maternal recognition of pregnancy in pigs is estrogen, produced by the elongating conceptus. To understand the role of estrogen in porcine conceptus elongation and pregnancy establishment, a loss ...
Investigating the deleterious role of B lymphocytes during brucella infection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI--COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Brucellosis is a disease known for inducing chronic, often life-long, infections. While it is clear the host immune response fails to clear Brucella infection...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 12/1/2024] Delineating the molecular mechanisms of plant immunity can help inspire novel ways to engineer more resistant plants which could contribute to reducing crop loss due to pathogenic infection. The ...
Quality indicators for evaluating distance education programs at community colleges
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
, and evaluation and assessment. A case was made for adding technical support as a sixth category. The items identified through the literature review were used to guide the development of a Delphi study to identify potential indicators. The results of the Delphi...
Measuring and comparing the spatiotemporal evolution of accident hot spots
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
One reality of transportation systems is that vehicular accidents can happen practically anywhere and at any time. An increasing body of research suggests though that spatial and/or temporal dependencies (i.e., clusters ...
