Differentiation Among Basal Cell Carcinoma, Benign Lesions, And Normal Skin Using Electric Impedance, Daryl G. Beetner, Sanat Kapoor, Shivappa Manjunath, Xiangyang Zhou, William V. Stoecker

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

This paper presents a preliminary study showing the diagnostic potential of electrical impedance to detect basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Electrical impedance was measured in vivo from 1 kHz to 1 MHz on 24 human subjects over BCC (19 lesions), over benign tumors (11 lesions), and over normal skin (all 24 patients). Lesions ranged from 2-15 mm in diameter. Indexes based on the magnitude (MIX), phase (PIX), real-part (RIX) and imaginary-part (IMIX) of impedance were calculated for each measurement. Significant differences were found between measurements over BCC, benign lesions and normal skin for indexes MIX, PIX, and IMIX (P = 0.04 …


Electrochemical And Hydrodynamic Interferences On The Performance Of An Oxygen Microsensor With Built-In Electrochemical Microactuator, Chang-Soo Kim, Chae-Hyang Lee Jan 2003

Electrochemical And Hydrodynamic Interferences On The Performance Of An Oxygen Microsensor With Built-In Electrochemical Microactuator, Chang-Soo Kim, Chae-Hyang Lee

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

An in situ self-diagnostic technique for a dissolved oxygen microsensor is proposed in an effort to devise an intelligent microsensor system with an integrated electro-chemical actuation electrode. With a built-in platinum microelectrode that surrounds the microsensor, two kinds of microenvironments (oxygen-saturated or oxygen-depleted phases) can be created by water electrolysis depending on the polarity. The functionality of the microsensor can be checked during these microenvironment phases. The polarographic oxygen microsensor is fabricated on a flexible polyimide substrate (Kapton/sup ©/) and the influences of electrochemical and hydrodynamic conditions on the sensor responses have been investigated.


Quantifying The Effects Of Small-Scale Heterogeneities On Flow And Transport In Undisturbed Cores From The Hanford Formation, M. N. Pace, M. A. Mayes, P. M. Jardine, T. L. Mehlhorn, John M. Zachara, B.N. Bjornstad Jan 2003

Quantifying The Effects Of Small-Scale Heterogeneities On Flow And Transport In Undisturbed Cores From The Hanford Formation, M. N. Pace, M. A. Mayes, P. M. Jardine, T. L. Mehlhorn, John M. Zachara, B.N. Bjornstad

United States Department of Energy: Publications

Accelerated migration of contaminants in the vadose zone has been observed beneath tank farms at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Hanford Reservation, Richland, WA. This paper focuses on quantifying hydrologic processes that control the fate and transport of contaminants in the unsaturated sediments beneath the Hanford tank farms. The experimental approach involved the use of field relevant, long-term unsaturated nonreactive transport experiments in undisturbed sediments from the Hanford Formation. Undisturbed sediment cores were collected from a laminated fine-grained sand unit within the Hanford Formation in both the vertical direction (flow cross bedding) and the horizontal direction (flow bedding parallel). Laboratory-scale …


Inhibition Of Bacterial U(Vi) Reduction By Calcium, Scott Brooks, James K. Fredrickson, Sue Carroll, David Kennedy, John M. Zachara, Andrew Plymale, Shelly Kelley, Kenneth Kemner, Scott Fendorf Jan 2003

Inhibition Of Bacterial U(Vi) Reduction By Calcium, Scott Brooks, James K. Fredrickson, Sue Carroll, David Kennedy, John M. Zachara, Andrew Plymale, Shelly Kelley, Kenneth Kemner, Scott Fendorf

United States Department of Energy: Publications

The rapid kinetics of bacterial U(VI) reduction and low solubility of uraninite (UO2,cr) make this process an attractive option for removing uranium from groundwater. Nevertheless, conditions that may promote or inhibit U(VI) reduction are not well-defined. Recent descriptions of Ca-UO2- CO3 complexes indicate that these species may dominate the aqueous speciation of U(VI) in many environments. We monitored the bacterial reduction of U(VI) in bicarbonate buffered solution in the presence and absence of Ca. XAFS measurements confirmed the presence of a Ca- U(VI)-CO3 complex in the initial solutions containing calcium. Calcium, at millimolar concentrations …

Novel Small Molecule Inhibitors Of Botulinum Neurotoxin A Metalloprotease Activity, James C. Burnett, James J. Schmidt, Robert G. Stafford, Rekha G. Panchal, Tam L. Nguyen, Ann R. Hermone, Jonathan L. Vennerstrom, Connor F. Mcgrath, Douglas J. Lane, Edward A. Sausville, Daniel W. Zaharevitz, Rick Gussio, Sina Bavari

United States Army: Publications

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are among the most lethal biological substances to have been weaponized and are listed as biodefense category A agents. Currently, no small molecule (non-peptidic) therapeutics exist to counter this threat; hence, identifying and developing compounds that inhibit BoNTs is a high priority. In the present study, a high-throughput assay was used to identify small molecules that inhibit the metalloprotease activity of BoNT serotype A light chain (BoNT/A LC). All inhibitors were further verified using a HPLC-based assay. Conformational analyses of these compounds, in conjunction with molecular docking studies, were used to predict structural features that contribute to …


Mechanisms Of Volatile Anesthetic-Induced Myocardial Protection, Lynda M. Ludwig, Judy R. Kersten, Katsuya Tanaka, Weidong Gu, John F. Ladisa, David C. Warltier, Paul S. Pagel Jan 2003

Mechanisms Of Volatile Anesthetic-Induced Myocardial Protection, Lynda M. Ludwig, Judy R. Kersten, Katsuya Tanaka, Weidong Gu, John F. Ladisa, David C. Warltier, Paul S. Pagel

Biomedical Engineering Faculty Research and Publications

Volatile anesthetics protect myocardium against reversible and irreversible ischemic injury. Experimental evidence from several in vitro and in vivo animal models demonstrates that volatile agents enhance the recovery of stunned myocardium and reduce the size of myocardial infarction after brief or prolonged coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion, respectively. This protective effect persists after the anesthetic has been discontinued, a phenomenon known as anesthetic-induced preconditioning (APC). Recent clinical data also demonstrates evidence of APC in patients during cardiac surgery. Thus, administration of volatile anesthetics may represent a novel therapeutic approach that reduces morbidity and mortality associated with perioperative myocardial ischemia and …

This paper presents the results of research attempts to substantiate repeatability and uniqueness claims of a functional model derivation method following a hypothesis generation and testing procedure outlined in design research literature. Three experiments are constructed and carried out with a participant pool that possesses a range of engineering design skill levels. the experiments test the utility of a functional model derivation method to produce repeatable functional models for a given product among different designers. in addition to this, uniqueness of the functional models produced by the participants is examined. Results indicate the method enhances repeatability and leads designers toward …


Mapping Function To Failure Mode During Component Development, Irem Y. Tumer, Robert B. Stone Jan 2003

Mapping Function To Failure Mode During Component Development, Irem Y. Tumer, Robert B. Stone

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

When designing aerospace systems, it is essential to provide crucial failure information for failure prevention. Failure modes and effect types of analyses and prior engineering knowledge and experience are commonly used to determine the potential modes of failures a product might encounter during its lifetime. When new products are being considered and designed, this knowledge and information is expanded upon to help designers extrapolate based on their similarity with existing products and the potential design tradeoffs. in this work, we aim to enhance this process by providing design-aid tools which derive similarities between functionality and failure modes. Specifically, this paper …


Protocols For Disease Classification From Mass Spectrometry Data, Michael Wagner, Dayanand Naik, Alex Pothen Jan 2003

Protocols For Disease Classification From Mass Spectrometry Data, Michael Wagner, Dayanand Naik, Alex Pothen

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

We report our results in classifying protein matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionizationtime of flight mass spectra obtained from serum samples into diseased and healthy groups. We discuss in detail five of the steps in preprocessing the mass spectral data for biomarker discovery, as well as our criterion for choosing a small set of peaks for classifying the samples. Cross-validation studies with four selected proteins yielded misclassification rates in the 10-15% range for all the classification methods. Three of these proteins or protein fragments are down-regulated and one up-regulated in lung cancer, the disease under consideration in this data set. When cross-validation studies …
