Development of a multispectral sensor for crop canopy temperature measurement
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)The Multispectral System for Imaging of a Crop Canopy (MSICC) that combines a miniature long wavelength infrared (LWIR) camera with a visible camera was developed to capture a field of view and derive a plant specific ... -
Nanocellulose extraction and surface modification toward active packaging applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have attracted growing interest as a renewable nanomaterial. The main objective of this study was to explore the extraction of CNCs from switchgrass and surface modification of CNCs into ... -
Natural and synthetic materials for the regeneration of osseous tissue
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Bone is a complex tissue with many regulation mechanisms which can be taken advantage of through the release of simple signaling molecules delivered via a biodegradable material like a hydrogel. Hydrogels are water swollen ...
