Is The Clean Air Act Unconstitutional?, Cass R. Sunstein

Michigan Law Review

This Article deals with two linked questions. The first involves the future of the Clean Air Act. The particular concern is how the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") might be encouraged, with help from reviewing courts, to issue better ambient air quality standards, and in the process to shift from some of the anachronisms of 1970s environmentalism to a more fruitful approach to environmental protection. The second question involves the role of the nondelegation doctrine in American public law, a doctrine that shows unmistakable signs of revival. I will suggest that improved performance by EPA and agencies in general, operating in …

Biotechnology And The Environment: Issues And Linkages, Sandra S. Batie, David E. Ervin

Economics Faculty Publications and Presentations

The rapidity of change has left scant opportunity for investigation of the consequences of biotechnology adoption on long-term ecosystem or economic system functioning. Economic theory suggests that, if the "Biotechnology Revolution" is left to market forces alone, there will be neglected public goods. Theory and limited empirical evidence suggests that there are significant incentives for private firms to discount and neglect negative environmental impacts and to develop products that meet only the needs of those able and willing to pay. Negative distributional impacts on rural societies and economies will not normally enter the private calculus nor will the long-term problems …

Mechanisms Of Gene Transfer Mediated By Lipoplexes Associated With Targeting Ligands Or Ph-Sensitive Peptides, Sérgio Simões, Vladimir Slepushkin, Pedro Pires, Rogério Gaspar, Maria C. Pedroso De Lima, Nejat Düzgüneş

All Dugoni School of Dentistry Faculty Articles

Association of a targeting ligand such as transferrin, or an endosome disrupting peptide such as GALA, with cationic liposome-DNA complexes ('lipoplexes') results in a significant enhancement of transfection of several cell types. Although these strategies can overcome some of the barriers to gene delivery by lipoplexes, the mechanisms by which they actually enhance transfection is not known. In studies designed to establish the targeting specificity of transferrin, we found that apo-transferrin enhances transfection to the same extent as transferrin, indicating that internalization of the lipoplexes is mostly independent of transferrin receptors. These observations were reinforced by results obtained from competitive …

Altered, Pamela Bentzien

Theses

This thesis explores, through photography, the question: What will the landscape of next generations look like? What are we leaving behind for future generations? The author created images which impart a ponderous mood which reflects on how individual lifestyles affect our natural environment. Are we leaving behind any natural resources for our future generations?

Rising Above The Herd - An Analysis Of The Western Australian Beef & Cattle Industry, Andrew Quinn, Ashley Manners

Animal production and livestock published reports

This report has been produced at the request of the Agriculture Western Australia, Meat Program Partnership Group. The intention of the report is to set out a number of priority areas for concentrated Agency and industry attention to assist with the development of the Western Australian beef and cattle industry.

• Global per capita consumption of beef is currently flat to slowly reducing, with total consumption volumes rising in line with population and wealth increases.

• Global trade in live cattle is experiencing a slow, steady increase in volumes influenced by trade factors encouraging in-country processing and finishing of cattle, and a …

Immune Cd8+ T Cells Prevent Reactivation Of Toxoplasma Gondii Infection In The Immunocompromised Host, Imtiaz A. Khan, William R. Green, Lloyd H. Kasper, Kathy A. Green, Joseph D. Schwartzman

Dartmouth Scholarship

Toxoplasma gondii remains a serious cause of morbidity and mortality in individuals that are immunosuppressed, patients with AIDS in particular. The cellular immune response, especially by gamma interferon (IFN-γ)-producing CD8⁺ T cells, is an essential component of protective immunity against the parasite. In the present study the role of CD8⁺ T cells during the reactivation of Toxoplasma infection in an immunocompromised murine model was evaluated. Chronically infected mice were challenged with LP-BM5 virus, and the kinetics of CD8⁺ T-cell function was studied. At 10 weeks after viral infection, mice showed obvious signs of systemic illness and began …

New York-An Immigrant's Account, Rosa Schupbach

Swiss American Historical Society Review

After I had volunteered at our annual meeting last year to tell you today something about my life as an immigrant in New York City, I forgot all about it until recently when Leo [Schelbert] asked me to give him the title of my lecture. My goodness, I thought, I really put my foot in this time, but I am glad I did because after the very serious discussion we just had, we all need to relax, to wind down, and even laugh a little. For about two years now I have given similar lectures with slides to various groups …

Slow-Binding Inhibition Of The Aminopeptidase From Aeromonas Proteolytica By Peptide Thiols: Synthesis And Spectroscopic Characterization, Kristi M. Huntington, David L. Bienvenue, Yaoming Wei, Brian Bennett, Richard C. Holz, Dehua Pei

Physics Faculty Research and Publications

Peptide-derived thiols of the general structure N-mercaptoacyl-leucyl-p-nitroanilide (1a−c) were synthesized and found to be potent, slow-binding inhibitors of the aminopeptidase from Aeromonas proteolytica (AAP). The overall potencies (K_I*) of these inhibitors against AAP range from 2.5 to 57 nM exceeding that of the natural product bestatin and approaching that of amastatin. The corresponding alcohols (2a−b) are simple competitive inhibitors of much lower potencies (K_I = 23 and 360 μM). These data suggest that the free thiols are involved in the formation of the E·I …

Quantitation Of Yohimbine Utilizing Capillary Electrophoresis. Method Development Through Statistical Design., Jonathan Cooper

Theses

In an effort to combat the rising cost of health care in the United States by encouraging preventative and self-care, the federal government passed the Dietary Supplement Health Education Act of 1994. This act essentially deregulated the natural product market allowing herbs, including yohimbine, to be sold over the counter without undergoing the same strict evaluation as a traditional synthetic drug candidate. As the full potential of these natural products is realized, including possible harmful side effects, a need arises for the identification and quantitation of the active components from commercial preparations. Commercial samples were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed for …

Whose Who? The Case For A Kantian Right Of Publicity, Alice Haemmerli

Duke Law Journal

Rapidly developing technological opportunities for unauthorized uses of identity-from "virtual kidnapping" to digitalcasting-coincide with growing demand for a preemptive federal right of publicity that can replace the existing welter of inconsistent state laws. Progress is impeded, however, by intractable doctrinal confusion and academic hostility to the right as allegedly inimical to society's cultural need to manipulate celebrity images. Because the right of publicity is traditionally based on Lockean labor theory and analogized to intellectual property in created works, it is vulnerable to such attacks; to date, no serious attempt has been made to elaborate an alternative philosophical justification that can …

Reclaiming The Beautiful Island: Taiwan's Emerging Environmental Regulation, Michael Scott Feeley

San Diego Law Review

In this Article, Mr. Feeley, provides an introduction to the Taiwanese environmental regulatory scheme emerging from Taiwan's unique circumstances (economic influence and ecological crises) and the potential economic impact that may result. The author reviews the development of the centuries-old colony into an independent and powerful state. He then provides an overview of the specific environmental laws, regulations and policies already in place and previews those being developed. Lastly, he discusses potential economic effects of the new environmental scheme. In conclusion, the author envisions the shrewd commercial acumen and diligence which fueled Taiwan's rise in the world market as a …
