(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Urban development and use of septic tanks in porous soils of Lake of the Ozarks poses a threat to public health via leaching into drinking wells and coves used for swimming. During 2 summers, phosphorus (TP), nitrogen (TN), chlorophyll (Chl), fecal...
Ligands for the sigma receptor and the mu-opioid receptor
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The sigma receptor is a unique receptor family with two subtypes: sigma-1 and sigma-2. In order to conduct structure-activity relationship studies (SAR), a series of specific 1-phenylpropyl-4-benzylpiperidine and 1-phenylpropyl-4- benzylpiperazine...
Meretites' Faience Ushebtis: An Analysis and Determination of their Production in a Late Period or Ptolemaic Workshop
(2010)
The hundreds of faience shabtis in an individual Late Period burial demanded a significant production effort within a workshop. Petrie's discovery of thousands of molds for small faience objects in Amarna (1891-92) and Memphis (1908-13) led...
Part I: Synthesis of functionalized bile acids towards the construction of steroidal macrocycles. Part II: Evaluation and expansion of a modular card game for teaching organic chemistry
(2019)
macrocycles. These have been coupled together via oxygen-free Sonogashira reaction conditions to form large barrel-like steroidal architectures. These structures were investigated by 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy, and HR-MS, and MALDI-TOF spectroscopy. In part...
Importance of agritourism for agripreneur goal accomplishment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
for visitors (Barbieri & Mahoney, 2009). Goals related to agritourism development have been identified, and include reducing fluctuations in farm income, making use of farm resources, educating the public and providing opportunities for the farm family, among...
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...
Global bifurcation and stability of solitary waves in two-layer water
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
The present work concerns two mathematical problems on wave in a stratified body of water governed by the incompressible Euler equations. In the first part, we present a large-amplitude existence theory for two-dimensional solitary waves by means...
Multi-scale self-assembly of nanoenergetic materials utilizing functionalized graphene
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
GO, forming a 3D structure with high porosity, controllable density, size, shape and chemical composition. The phase separation between Al and Bi2O3 was minimized, and the energetic reactivity of both nanoparticles was retained. Therefore, the final product r...
