The Synthesis, Characterization, And Cell Seeding Of A Collagen/Hydroxyapatite Porous Scaffold For Treatment Of Osseous Defects, Kim Rachel Patterson

All Theses

The need for finding a bone graft substitute stems from the fact that approximately 200,000 bone grafting procedures are performed annually in the U.S. alone. Although biological grafting options (i.e. autografts & allografts) exist, they do suffer from inherent problems. These include limited resources, costly processing, and potential for pathogen transfer. Thus, investigators have sought synthetic alternatives.

The objective of this research was to utilize hydroxyapatite (HA) and collagen, both analogues to the major constituents of bone, to fabricate an optimal synthetic osteoconductive/osteoinductive bone scaffold. Current attempts by other investigators to combine the two materials have been met with some …

Plant Growth Media And Process For Using Same, Garrett J. Thomas

Clemson Patents

A method for controlling the growth rate of plants is provided. The method is directed to using a ureaformaldehyde foam composition blended with a soil formulation. Depending upon the amount of foam added to the soil, the resulting mixture can be used to selectively increase or decrease plant growth rates. The ureaformaldehyde foam can also be used to increase the germination rate of seeds and to increase the percentage of seeds that germinate.

Whoever Heard Of Standardized Art? The Complexity Of Using Portfolios For Licensing Principals, Jane Clark Lindle

Publications

One dominant metaphor in the standards-based movement to "professionalize" teaching is that of art and artist. The images of "performance" and "portfolio" are constantly in use, and since these metaphors can lead to interesting insights, pushing them to their logical conclusions is the purpose of this paper. It draws on the extensive literature in art criticism and asks if a portfolio evaluation is an oxymoron. Portfolios have been suggested as desirable evaluation tools because they are open-ended and allow for individual interpretation and reflection. Evaluation, however, requires a common structure and externally imposed, standardized value judgments--conditions that are difficult to …

Boundaries Of Trust And Confidence: Negotiating Evaluation And Research Constraints In The Context Of Kentucky's Systemic Reform, Lois Adams-Rodgers, Jane Clark Lindle

Publications

Kentucky's systemic reform initiative has been heralded as one of the more comprehensive and well-sustained reforms in recent history. To evaluate the course of this reform, the challenges associated with researching and evaluating a statewide systemic reform effort are detailed here. By using a description of the politics of evaluating systemic policy at the state level, the paper attempts to fill the gap between the investigation of how policy works and the investigation of how policy is evaluated. An embedded, single-case design was used to study the program over a 3-month period. Examination of the system suggests that the political …
