Effects Of Cisplatin Analog Size On The Reaction With Dna Bases, Swathi Nandala
Effects Of Cisplatin Analog Size On The Reaction With Dna Bases, Swathi Nandala
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. Cisplatin is one of the well-known anti-cancer agents used to treat testicular and ovarian cancers. It mainly binds to the DNA bases, which leads to cell death. The cytotoxic activity of the cisplatin analogs is due to the interaction of platinum with nucleotides like adenine at N7 or N1 position and guanine at N7 position. Guanine is the primary target for cisplatin analogs whereas adenine is the secondary target. Cisplatin analogs, [Pt(Me5dien)(D2O)]2+[Me5dien = N,N,N’,N’,N’’-pentamethyl diethylene triamine] and …
An Automatic Framework For Embryonic Localization Using Edges In A Scale Space, Zachary Bessinger
An Automatic Framework For Embryonic Localization Using Edges In A Scale Space, Zachary Bessinger
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Localization of Drosophila embryos in images is a fundamental step in an automatic computational system for the exploration of gene-gene interaction on Drosophila. Contour extraction of embryonic images is challenging due to many variations in embryonic images. In the thesis work, we develop a localization framework based on the analysis of connected components of edge pixels in a scale space. We propose criteria to select optimal scales for embryonic localization. Furthermore, we propose a scale mapping strategy to compress the range of a scale space in order to improve the efficiency of the localization framework. The effectiveness of the proposed …
Using Optimal Control Theory To Optimize The Use Of Oxygen Therapy In Chronic Wound Healing, Donna Lynn Daulton
Using Optimal Control Theory To Optimize The Use Of Oxygen Therapy In Chronic Wound Healing, Donna Lynn Daulton
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Approximately 2 to 3 million people in the United States suffer from chronic wounds, which are defined as wounds that do not heal in 30 days time; an estimated $25 billion per year is spent on their treatment in the United States. In our work, we focused on treating chronic wounds with bacterial infections using hyperbaric and topical oxygen therapies.
We used a mathematical model describing the interaction between bacteria, neutrophils and oxygen. Optimal control theory was then employed to study oxygen treatment strategies with the mathematical model. Existence of a solution was shown for both therapies. Uniqueness was also …
Floquet Theory On Banach Space, Fatimah Hassan Albasrawi
Floquet Theory On Banach Space, Fatimah Hassan Albasrawi
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
In this thesis we study Floquet theory on a Banach space. We are concerned about the linear differential equation of the form: y'(t) = A(t)y(t), where t ∈ R, y(t) is a function with values in a Banach space X, and A(t) are linear, bounded operators on X. If the system is periodic, meaning A(t+ω) = A(t) for some period ω, then it is called a Floquet system. We will investigate the existence …
Analyzing And Solving Non-Linear Stochastic Dynamic Models On Non-Periodic Discrete Time Domains, Gang Cheng
Analyzing And Solving Non-Linear Stochastic Dynamic Models On Non-Periodic Discrete Time Domains, Gang Cheng
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Stochastic dynamic programming is a recursive method for solving sequential or multistage decision problems. It helps economists and mathematicians construct and solve a huge variety of sequential decision making problems in stochastic cases. Research on stochastic dynamic programming is important and meaningful because stochastic dynamic programming reflects the behavior of the decision maker without risk aversion; i.e., decision making under uncertainty. In the solution process, it is extremely difficult to represent the existing or future state precisely since uncertainty is a state of having limited knowledge. Indeed, compared to the deterministic case, which is decision making under certainty, the stochastic …
Forensic Investigation Of Stamped Markings Using A Large-Chamber Scanning Electron Microscope And Computer Analysis For Depth Determination, Eric Douglas Jones
Forensic Investigation Of Stamped Markings Using A Large-Chamber Scanning Electron Microscope And Computer Analysis For Depth Determination, Eric Douglas Jones
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
All firearms within the United States are required by the Gun Control Act to be physically marked with a serial number; which is at least 0.003” in depth and 1/16” in height. The purpose of a serial number is to make each firearm uniquely identifiable and traceable. Intentional removal of a serial number is a criminal offense and is used to hide the identity and movements of the involved criminal parties. The current standard for firearm serial number restoration is by chemical etching; which is time & labor intensive as well as destructive to the physical evidence (firearm). It is …
Synthesis Of Rhenium And Manganese Pyridazoal Complexes, Jesse Evans
Synthesis Of Rhenium And Manganese Pyridazoal Complexes, Jesse Evans
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Pyridazines are a heterocyclic aromatic compound containing a characteristic N-N bond that are utilized in many fields, including medicine and electronics. It is this latter field that Dr. Snyder's research group is focused upon. Organometallic compounds are a better conducting material than the current inorganic compounds used in electronics due to better conductance of electricity, lower production cost, and the ability to be formed into thin films. With this in mind, Dr. Snyder's research group has set out to synthesize organometallic compounds for this purpose. Following procedures set forth by Snyder etc, and altered to form an off-metal route, we …
