Scatchard Analysis Of Methane Sulfinic Acid Production From Dimethyl Sulfoxide: A Method To Quantify Hydroxyl Radical Formation In Physiologic Systems, Charles F. Babbs, David W. Griffin Jan 1989

Scatchard Analysis Of Methane Sulfinic Acid Production From Dimethyl Sulfoxide: A Method To Quantify Hydroxyl Radical Formation In Physiologic Systems, Charles F. Babbs, David W. Griffin

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

A major impediment to the confirmation of free radical mechanisms in pathogenesis is a lack of direct, chemical evidence that oxygen centered free radicals actually arise in living tissues in quantities sufficient to cause serious damage. This investigation was conducted to validate the use of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a quantitative molecular probe for the generation of hydroxyl radicals (HO*) under physiologic conditions. Reaction of HO* with DMSO produces methane sulfinic acid (MSA) as a primary product, which can be detected by a simple colorimetric assay. To develop a method for estimating total HO* production, we studied two model systems: …


Consequences Of Valley Filtering On Abrupt Junction Algaas/Gaas Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors, Amitava Das, Mark S. Lundstrom Jan 1989

Consequences Of Valley Filtering On Abrupt Junction Algaas/Gaas Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors, Amitava Das, Mark S. Lundstrom

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Electron transport in AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors with compositionally abrupt emitter‐base junctions is examined. Transport across the abrupt emitter‐base heterojunction is treated quantum mechanically, and the Monte Carlo technique is used to study transport through the base. Although there is a sizeable population of upper‐valley electrons in the bulk emitter, the AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction is found to favor the injection of Γ‐valley electrons into the base. This valley filtering effect enhances device performance by reducing base transit time, but quantum mechanical tunneling lowers the average energy of the injected flux which increases base transit time. The design of a heterojunction bipolar …

Ee Student Workstation Lab Status Report December, 1988, Michael E. Hussey, John C. Lindenlaub

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

The Maclab project in the Spring of 1988 demonstrated that providing a Macintosh workstation environment to some sections of EE 267 (Digital Logic Design Laboratory) was both useful and feasible on a small scale. The goals of the EE Student Workstation project this past Summer and Fall were: A. To provide all sections of EE 267 (approximately 200 students) with a Macintosh workstation environment for the simulation of digital logic circuits and for the preparation of reports. B. Tb provide a useful Macintosh workstation environment to other Electrical Engineering students. C. To transfer responsibility for operational aspects of the Macintosh …


Quantitative Effects Of Iron Chelators On Hydroxyl Radical Production By The Superoxide-Driven Fenton Raction, Jean Blair Smith, Joanne C. Cusumano, Charles F. Babbs Jan 1989

Quantitative Effects Of Iron Chelators On Hydroxyl Radical Production By The Superoxide-Driven Fenton Raction, Jean Blair Smith, Joanne C. Cusumano, Charles F. Babbs

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

Iron bound to certain chelators is known to promote the conversion of superoxide radicals (O2) to hydroxyl radicals (HO') by the superoxide-driven Fenton reaction. The production of HO' by various iron chelates was studied using the reaction of dimethyl sulfoxide and HO' to produce methane sulphinic acid. Methane sulphinic acid was quantified by use of a simple colorimetric assay and used to determine the amounts of HO' produced. Superoxide was generated from 200 M hypoxanthine and 0.05 U/ml xanthine oxidase in the presence of 0-100 M iron and 100 M of each chelator. The results of this preliminary investigation illustrate …


Effect Of Oxygen Concentration On The Formation Of Malondialdehyde-Like Material In A Model Of Tissue Ischemia And Reoxygenation, Steven C. Salaris, Charles F. Babbs Jan 1989

Effect Of Oxygen Concentration On The Formation Of Malondialdehyde-Like Material In A Model Of Tissue Ischemia And Reoxygenation, Steven C. Salaris, Charles F. Babbs

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

This study was conducted to explore the functional relationship between oxygen concentration during tissue reoxygenation after ischemia and the extent of postischemic lipid peroxidation, an indicator of reoxygenation injury. Excised rat liver or kidney tissue was rendered ischemic for 1 h at 37°C, minced into 1 mm3 fragments, and then reoxygenated for 1 h in flasks of buffered salt solution containing various amounts of oxygen. Production of malondialdehyde-like material (MDA) was measured to indicate lipid peroxidation. MDA production was minimal at oxygen tensions less than 10 mmHg, increased sharply from 10 to 50 mmHg, and plateaued at approximately 100 mmHg. …


Lethal Hydroxyl Radical Production In Paraquat-Treated Plants, Charles F. Babbs, Jo Ann Pham, Ronald C. Coolbaugh Jan 1989

Lethal Hydroxyl Radical Production In Paraquat-Treated Plants, Charles F. Babbs, Jo Ann Pham, Ronald C. Coolbaugh

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

Bipyridinium herbicides, including paraquat and diquat, are believed to act by generating highly reactive, oxygen-centered free radicals within chloroplasts when treated plants are exposed to sunlight. This hypothesis has not yet been confirmed by direct chemical measurements of specific free radicals. We studied paraquat-treated plants using a new method able to detect and quantify formation of highly reactive and deleterious hydroxyl radicals (HO*), in which dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is used as a molecular probe. DMSO is oxidized by HO* to form the stable, nonradical compound, methane sulfinic acid, which can be easily extracted from plant tissue and measured spectrophotometrically. Initial …


Measurements Of Carrier Generation-Recombination Parameters In Silicon Solar Cell Material Using Mos Techniques, W. M/ Au, R. F. Pierret, R. J. Schwartz, F. Sanii Jan 1989

Measurements Of Carrier Generation-Recombination Parameters In Silicon Solar Cell Material Using Mos Techniques, W. M/ Au, R. F. Pierret, R. J. Schwartz, F. Sanii

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

Modified and new measurement techniques were developed for determining the carrier generation-recombination (G-R) parameters in silicon solar cell material under carrier deficit and low-level carrier excess conditions using MOS-based test structures. The structures mainly consisted of ring-dot MOS Capacitors (MOS-C) and Schottky-Drained Gate-Controlled Diodes (SGCD). Sample G-R parameters were extracted from n-type high quality silicon solar cell material. Additional measurements were also performed on low-quality ntype silicon substrates for comparison purposes. The photoaccelerated MOS-C Capacitance-time (C-t) transient measurement technique, modified from the standard C-t method, allows one to drastically reduce the observation time in deducing the carrier generation lifetime (Tg) …


Effective Minority‐Carrier Hole Confinement Of Si‐Doped, N+‐N Gaas Homojunction Barriers, H. L. Chuang, M. E. Klausmeier-Brown, Michael R. Melloch, Mark S. Lundstrom Jan 1989

Effective Minority‐Carrier Hole Confinement Of Si‐Doped, N+‐N Gaas Homojunction Barriers, H. L. Chuang, M. E. Klausmeier-Brown, Michael R. Melloch, Mark S. Lundstrom

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

he electrical performance of Si‐doped n+‐n GaAs homojunction barriers grown by molecular‐beam epitaxy (MBE) is characterized and analyzed. We employed a successive etch technique to study hole injection currents in GaAs n+‐n‐p+ solar cells. The results of the analysis show that minority‐carrier holes in our MBE‐grown material have a mobility of 293 cm2/V s for an n‐type Si‐doping level of 1.5×1016 cm−3 at 300 K. The interface recombination velocity for these homojunction barriers is estimated to be less than 1×103 cm/s, and it appears to be comparable to that recently observed for …
