Detection of cold flow properties of diesel and biodiesel fuel using optical sensor
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)Identification of cloud point for biodiesel fuel can be used to optimize the performance of biodiesel fueled vehicles in cold weather. Cloud point is the temperature at which the smallest cluster of wax crystal is observed ... -
Development of a capillary based helicobacter hepaticus biosensor
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)Helicobacter hepaticus causes hepatitis in mice. Infections with H. hepaticus can invalidate animal research studies and early detection helps curtail the spread of infection. The objective of this study was to develop a ... -
Modeling the influence of climate and management practices on water quality in Goodwater Creek experimental watershed
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)The objective of this study was to determine relationships among weather, runoff, water quality, and best management practice (BMP) implementation in reducing atrazine losses in the 7,250-ha Goodwater Creek Experimental ... -
Photoacoustic detection of metastatic melanoma in the human circulatory system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)Detection of disseminating tumor cells can function as an early warning system, alerting the metastatic spread or recurrence of the disease. Early detection of such cells can result in preventative treatment of the disease ...
