Arsenic-72, 77 as a matched pair radiopharmaceutical for imaging and radiotherapy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
] The parameters for a 72Se/72As generator were evaluated and nca 72Se was produced via the 70Ge([alpha], 2n)72Se nuclear reaction, separated and loaded onto a generator column. Further evaluations are underway. Radiochemistry of nca 72,77As will be discussed...
An ecological systems approach to reduce children's encounters with obscenity on the internet
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Ecological Systems Model to solve the problem of children's encounters with online obscenity. The ecological systems perspective is a framework for recommendations and solutions. When each environmental system from the model collaborate in effort toward a...
Neutron diffraction studies on ABO₃ (A=La, Sr, B=Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Mn, Ti) perovskite used in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and double perovskite Ba₂YRu[0.85-subscript]Cu[0.15-subscript]O₆ superconductor
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
and a mixture of 5wt% YBa₂Cu₃O₇₋[delta subscript] and undoped Ba₂YRuO₆ were investigated with the aid of neutron diffraction. The 1:1 B site ordering is observed and long range antiferromagnetic ordering of the Ru sublattice with a type I magnetic...
The activities of rural young people in Missouri : a survey of 2,297 young people attending high school
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1937)
Analysis and design of reinforced concrete wall systems for blast
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
/prestressed concrete and insulated tilt-up concrete sandwich panels for exterior walls is common practice. These forms of construction provide a thermally efficient and high-mass wall that enhances the energy efficiency and blast resistance of the building making...
MITIGATING ANTIBIOTIC-RESISTANT PATHOGENS: A MULTIFACETED STRATEGY FOR NOVEL ANTIBACTERIAL DRUG DEVELOPMENT AND COMPREHENSIVE LCMS/MS APPLICATIONS FOR DIVERSE THERAPEUTIC ADVANCEMENTS
(2023)
, emphasizing the potential target of the identified potent 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazole compound.
In the second phase, challenges posed by isomeric analytes crucial for understanding bacterial cell wall intermediates were addressed. Utilizing MS/MS data...
The Impact of Welfare Reform on Leaver Characteristics, Employment and Recidivism
(Department of Economics, 2002)
that there has been little change in the observable characteristics of those entering, on, or leaving welfare, but there has been a dramatic growth in the importance of employment for all these groups. We also examine the dynamics of employment and welfare...
Wealth accumulation differences between wage-earning and entrepreneurial families : the role of active saving behavior
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
This study examines the causal relationship between entrepreneurship and wealth accumulation. Saving behavior is a potential source of family wealth differentials. It is proposed that entrepreneurial families exhibit more accelerated active saving...
The kinetics of non-catalyzed supercritical water reforming of ethanol
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
point, 374[degrees]C and 22.1 MPa, and exhibits both liquid and gas-like properties and acts a non-polar solvent. Since supercritical water is denser than steam, supercritical water reactors have the potential of being smaller than their catalytic...
Statistical analysis of clustered or multivariate interval-censored failure time data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
of the presented methodology, an extensive simulation study is performed and suggests that the method works well in practical situations. Finally, the proposed approach is applied to a tumorigenicity experiment. Several directions for future research are discussed...
Reliability-based analysis of settlements of shallow foundations on cohesionless soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
, and consequently to the settlement estimations. Traditional settlement analysis methodologies do not incorporate a consistent approach to account for the uncertainties and can lead to either costly design by overestimation of the settlement or a risky design...
Historical review of financial equity in Missouri : 1993 foundation formula and amendments
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
, and the legislative decision to guarantee a minimum (hold harmless) payment per student to analyze whether funding for Missouri public schools was more equitable than the pre-1993 OSA formula. Specific fiscal years from 1998-99 through 2005-06 were selected...
Reference analysis of non-regular models and nonparametric Bayes modeling of large data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
truncated exponential family and a general expression of conditional reference prior for multi group continuous parameter model. Furthermore, we demonstrate the usefulness of our work by deriving reference priors for models which have no known existing...

Evaluating phytochemical contributions to atrazine degradation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Surface water contamination from the herbicide atrazine (2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-isopropylamino-1,3,5-triazine) has been a concern for many years. The use of vegetated buffer strips (VBS) is known to improve water quality but the use of specific...
Keeping your eyes on the prize versus your nose to the grindstone : the effects of level of goal evaluation on mood and motivation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Though higher level, primary goals provide meaning and direction for a person, evaluating progress on that primary goal versus a sub-goal is risky. Study 1 was a 2 x 2 experiment in which framing level (sub-goal or primary goal) and feedback valence...
Factors influencing non-music majors' decisions to participate in collegiate bands
