Comparative selectivity of various Salmonella typhimurium strains in targeting prostate cancer cells [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
Recent studies indicate that non-virulent strains of serovar typhimurium () have tumor-targeting activity. Indeed, S. typhimurium has been observed to selectively target cancer tissue by a ratio of over 1000:1. However, most of these studies focused...
Measuring pile side-shear using full scale tests [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
This research focuses on testing side shear resistance of piles to determine how much load bearing capacity they can support. The work includes the testing of full scale piles in a chamber of sand. The chamber allows for different piles to be tested...
Controling cabbage pests in Missouri [abstract]

Characterizing serotonin in the fruit fly brain [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
. My project focused on characterization of the serotonergic system in fly brains using immunocytochemistry. I probed for 5-HT using a monoclonal antibody and studied its co-localization with neurons expressing GFP driven by either Ddc-Gal4 or Ddc...
Synthesis of a prosthetic group for radiolabeling of Melanoma targeting peptide Re-CCMSH [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
, and absence of side reactions. The organic synthesis of this prosthetic group was the focus of my research. Previous attempts at radiolabeling of the conjugated peptide have been inefficient multi-step syntheses and thus impractical. For my research, a benzyl...

Blast resistant wall retrofits [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
Due to the rising number of explosion attacks, the need for blast resistant structures has increased greatly. Many materials have been tested for blast retrofit design but have shown to have limitation. The focus of this research is on the analysis...
Improving fracture toughness in slip-cast alumina [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
. This tendency of alumina to crack can lead to catastrophic equipment failure, greatly limiting its application. This research project is focusing on improving the fracture toughness of slip-cast alumina by reinforcing the ceramic with multi-walled nanotubes...
