Development of an experiment for investigating the magnetohydrodynamic richtmyer-meshkov instability
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
mitigate these instabilities and reduce fluid mixing. It is precisely this problem that necessitates the research on magnetohydrodynamic instabilities presented in this dissertation to aid in solving the challenge to "Provide Energy from Fusion...
Quantifying soybean phenotypes using UAV imagery and machine learning, deep learning methods
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
in phenotypic variations in breeding trials. Also, the RGB imagery-based classification could be a cost-effective choice for breeders and associated researchers for plant breeding programs in identifying superior genotypes....
Formulation development of a novel antivirulence compound for enhanced pharmocokinetic properties
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] A novel antivirulence compound CCG-211790 (termed as C790 in this context), has demonstrated significant inhibition against several severe ...
Castor oil and orange juice: how John H. Johnson fed news to black America
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
In the mid-1940s, publisher John H. Johnson did not like the image of African Americans that was projected by mainstream, white-owned media. He felt the image constructed was too limited and stereotypical. He also felt ...
Unraveling the role of the endogenous complex gut microbiota in the Pirc rat model of human colon cancer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
and the endogenous, complex GM through multiple approaches. The research presented in this dissertation may potentially help unravel the molecular mechanisms contributing to disease susceptibility, and could identify therapeutic targets and biomarkers for early non...
Science frictions : science, folklore, and "the future"
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
that lives on in the present. (And one that might even prevail into the time to come). This work is not entirely that story. But it is a part of it, presented here as it is in the interest of opening new channels of discourse between two areas of research...
Developmental programming by xenoestrogens
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
were seen within the range of current human exposure. Overall my research demonstrates that developmental programming by XE is linked to increased disease susceptibility in adulthood; exposure to low-environmentally relevant levels of XE may increase...
Development of radiolabeled metal chalcogenide nanoparticles for targeted adiotherapy against an infection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
of this research to create a platform for targeted radiotherapy against tuberculosis, a lung-based infection of growing concern due to emerging drug resistant strains. Instead of a traditional bifucntional chelate approach, a copper sulfide (CuS) nanoparticle...
Examination of metabolic and regulatory networks of desulfovibrio species
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2004)
The sulfate-reducing bacteria are a morphologically diverse group of organisms characterized by the ability to couple the enzymatic reduction of sulfate to energy production and growth. This metabolic activity has profound ...
Novel Prodrugs and Self-Assembling Nanocarriers to Improve Drug Delivery
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2018)
PART I: DIPEPTIDE PRODRUG APPROACH TO IMPROVE INTESTINAL
ABSORPTION OF LOPINAVIR
Lopinavir (LPV), a highly potent second-generation HIV-1 protease inhibitor, is
currently indicated in HIV-1 infection. However, poor ...
Thinking locally : provincialism and cosmopolitanism in American literature since the Great Depression
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Thinking Locally produces an account of twentieth-century literary history that counters the literary-historical over-reliance on wars as framing events. Eschewing the standard break between pre-World War II and post-World ...
