The Synthesis And Polymerization Of N-Vinylacrylamide., Chen Chang
All ETDs from UAB
The subject of this thesis is the synthesis of N-vinylacrylamide and, eventually, the cyclopolymerization of this monomer which, upon hydrolysis, should yield the alternating copolymer, poly(acrylic acid-co-vinylamine). N-vinylacrylamide was prepared by condensing two moles of acrylamide with one mole of acetaldehyde to give the intermediate, N,N’-ethylidenebisacrylamide, which was pyrolyzed at approximately 140°C, 20 mm. The N-vinylacrylamide was identified by NMR, IR, and elemental analysis. The spin decoupling technique was used to analyze the N-vinylacrylamide proton pattern which was complicated by isomerism. The attempted cyclopolymerization of this monomer with azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator afforded an insoluble polymer, possibly because of the difference …

Muscle degeneration and wasting in muscular dystrophy (MD) has been shown to be associated with high levels of proteolytic enzymes called Cathepsins. Antipain and leupeptin, naturally occurring peptide aldehydes, have been shown to be of possible therapeutic value in treatment of MD. The cost of these compounds, however, has made large scale clinical studies impossible. The purpose of this work was to develop a general synthesis of protected amino acid aldehydes, and to apply this methodology to the total synthesis of antipain.An efficient, general method for the synthesis of protected amino acid aldehydes was developed. The key intermediates in the …

Criminologists and historians generally conclude that the present is neither the best nor the worst as far as crime is concerned. Durkheim (1964) made a memorable observation on the inevitability of criminal acts when he said, "Crime is normal because a society exempt from it is utterly impossible" (p. 67).

In the past 25 years our society has had an increased interest in issues of human sexuality. One facet of this interest has been the development of sex education programs for children and adolescents. Conflicting opinions regarding such issues as what topics should be taught or in what context they should be presented has made the area of sex education one of controversy.

Autism is a syndrome that has received widespread attention from the media and from the medical and educational professions in recent years. Though it has often been surrounded by much mystery it is, in fact, one of the most devastating of the developmental disorders.
Effects Of Restraint Stress On Sleep In The Mouse., Debra Lee Weiler
Effects Of Restraint Stress On Sleep In The Mouse., Debra Lee Weiler
All ETDs from UAB
The purpose of the present study was to systematically evaluate the effects of repeated restraint stress on awake, slow-wave sleep (SWS), rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep and total sleep time (TST) in the mouse. In contrast to the anecdotal notion that stress uniformly produces insomnia, it was hypothesized that stress induced sleep disruptions would vary as a function of the intensity and chronicity of stressor exposure. A repeated measure (i.e., chronicity) design crossed with three levels of stressor intensity was employed in order to test this hypothesis. Forty-eight male random-bred Swiss mice weighing between 25 and 35 grams were implanted with cortical …

2-Azido- and 3,6-diazido-10-methylacridinium salts were synthesized in good yield from the corresponding nitro- and diaminoacridines. The synthetic scheme involved reduction of the nitro group to an amino function, acetylation of the primary amino group, methylation of the ring nitrogen with subsequent removal of the protecting group and diazotization of the primary amine followed by nucleophilic displacement of the diazonium salt with sodium azide.Synthesis of 4-azido-9-amino-10-methylacridinium chloride was unsuccessful at the methylation stage due to steric hindrance of the 4-acetamido group. An improved yield of 4-nitro-9-aminoacridine is also reported.

The behavioral repertoire of Fundulus grandis includes 32 acts, 5 of which are found only in the male. The acts are described and categorized by function.Male-male and male-female pairs were observed for agonistic and reproductive behaviors, diel rhythms of behavior, endogenous hormone levels (testosterone for males; estrogens for females), and male coloration frequencies.In male-male pairs, dominance was quickly established and was not reversed. The dominant male often used homosexual behavior in addition to dominant agonistic acts to express dominance. Coloration frequencies were significantly higher in the dominant male. Testosterone levels were positively associated with degree of dominant agonistic behavior. Additionally, …

Selenium was J.J. Berzelius. discovered in 1817 by the Swedish chemist It was identified in a red deposit that had collected on the floor of a room in which sulfur, obtained as an industrial waste product from a copper mine, had been used; its similarity to tellurium had caused it to have been mistaken for that element. Since the name tellurium had been coined from talus, the Latin word for "earth," Berzelius named his discovery after the Greek word for "moon," selene.

The indiscriminate discharge of industrial wastewaters such as those containing high levels of ammonia, has resulted in toxicity to animal and human life and in eutrophication of receiving streams. Stringent government regulations now limit effluent volumes of affected industries. The destructive distillation of coal to produce coke, which is used as a reducing agent for iron and steel production, may result in ammonia levels above 300 mg/L in the wastewater. iron and steel industry has therefore been required to seek an effective and economical method of removing the ammonia from its effluent. The limitations, including high costs of various physiochemical …

Many surgical procedures require muscle relaxation as part of the anesthesia. The reduction in muscle tone resulting from the administration of muscle relaxants renders the surgical field more accessible. Presently, muscle relaxation is commonly achieved and maintained by repeated bolus injections, by continuous infusion of muscle relaxants at a constant rate, or by a combination of these. The dosage of the drug is usually determined by relatively simple clinical guidelines, such as patient weight, height, and girth. The level of relaxation is often monitored by observing the evoked response (twitch) to periodic peripheral nerve stimulation (Katz & Katz, 1975).Present procedures …
