Respiratory Effects Of 1-Propylxanthine On Neonatal Rats, Amanda Hance Apr 2008

Respiratory Effects Of 1-Propylxanthine On Neonatal Rats, Amanda Hance

Student Honors Theses

Neonatal apnea is commonly treated by methylxanthines like caffeine or theophylline, but these drugs have the potential to create serious side effects. As an alternative, a new xanthine analog, 1-propylxanthine (1-PX), was recently synthesized at Eastern Illinois University. The respiratory effects of 1-PX were investigated in 4- to 7-day-old rats to determine if 1-PX could be a respiratory stimulant. Each rat was placed in a heated body plethysmograph, and its respiratory rate and volume were measured using a flow transducer, pneumotachograph, and Power Lab data acquisition system. After a 10-min control period, the rat was given a s.c. dose of …


Sources Of Wood & Wood Residues For Energy Production In Indiana, Isaac Slaven, Eva Haviarova, Klein Ileleji Apr 2008

Sources Of Wood & Wood Residues For Energy Production In Indiana, Isaac Slaven, Eva Haviarova, Klein Ileleji

Faculty Research & Creative Activity

As energy prices rise and there is a push for energy to be produced from renewable resources, the contribution of Indiana’s corn and soybean industry often overshadows the impact that the State’s wood residues can have in response to these demands. Reports show that the wood products industry is the largest, by paid wages, of any agricultural industry in Indiana and employs 47,000 Indianans.1 In fact, Indiana has more than 4.5 million acres of forest land,2 compared to about 12.3 million acres of cropland.3 In addition to the millions of acres of forestland, Indiana has more than 1,600 wood products …


Edge Influence On Reproductive Success Of Symphoricarpos Orbiculatus, Breanne M. Nott Apr 2008

Edge Influence On Reproductive Success Of Symphoricarpos Orbiculatus, Breanne M. Nott

Student Honors Theses

With continued forest fragmentation, edge effects play an important role in shaping the structure and composition of plant communities. Some forest plant species exhibit increased abundance at forest edges, while other species have a negative edge response. Despite welldocumented edge effects, there are few studies that document the underlying effects on population dynamics of individual species that result in edge responses. Two mechanisms may generate differential distribution of a species across an edge. Edges may 1) alter population demographics by influencing the plant’s uptake and allocation of resources, or may 2) influence the spatial pattern of seed dispersal. Coral berry …

Masque Scenery And The Tradition Of Immobilization In The First Part Of The Countess Of Montgomery's Urania, Julie Campbell Apr 2008

Masque Scenery And The Tradition Of Immobilization In The First Part Of The Countess Of Montgomery's Urania, Julie Campbell

Faculty Research & Creative Activity

This study addresses two of the pivotal magical interventions in The First Part of The Countess of Montgomery's Urania, specifically those in which Wroth makes use of the masque tradition of immobilization: the Three Towers of the House of Love and the Marble Theatre on an island in the Gulf of Venice. In these enchantments, which include architecturally fantastic structures, music, and the symbolically posed, stilled characters, Wroth creates masque-like ‘idealized fictions’ that emblematize the romantic relationships she depicts. They are meant to elevate the sometimes sordid realities of real relationships to a higher allegorical plane on which the virtue …
