Island Of Tranquility: Rhetoric And Identification At Brigham Young University During The Vietnam Era, Brian D. Jackson
Island Of Tranquility: Rhetoric And Identification At Brigham Young University During The Vietnam Era, Brian D. Jackson
Theses and Dissertations
The author argues that beyond religious beliefs and conservative politics, rhetorical identification played an important role in the relative calmness of the BYU campus during the turbulent Sixties. Using Bitzer's rhetorical situation theory and Burke's identification theory, the author shows that BYU's calm campus can be explained as a result of communal identification with a conservative ethos. He also shows that apparent epistemological shortcomings of Bitzer's model can be resolved by considering the power of identification to create salience and knowledge in rhetorical situations. During the Sixties, BYU administration developed policies on physical appearance that invited students to take on …

A Procedural Model For Integrating Physical And Cyberspaces In Architecture, Peter Anders
A Procedural Model For Integrating Physical And Cyberspaces In Architecture, Peter Anders
School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Theses
This dissertation articiilates opportunities offered by architectural computation, in particular the digital simulation of space known as virtual reality (VR) and its networked, social variant cyberspace. The thesis will argue that VR/cyberspace has exacerbated differences between architecture's materialist and idealist practices, widening the gap that separates them. In an effort to bridge this gap it presents a procedural model for how VR and cyberspace may be integrated within the practice and product of architecture. The dissertation presents important developments in architectural computation that disclose concepts and values that contrast with orthodox practice. Virtual reality and cyberspace, the foci of this …

Myosin Heavy Chain And Physiological Adaptation Of The Rat Diaphragm In Elastase-Induced Emphysema., Dong Kwan Kim, Jianliang Zhu, Benjamin W Kozyak, James M Burkman, Neal A Rubinstein, Edward B Lankford, Hansell H Stedman, Taitan Nguyen, Sanford Levine, Joseph B Shrager
Myosin Heavy Chain And Physiological Adaptation Of The Rat Diaphragm In Elastase-Induced Emphysema., Dong Kwan Kim, Jianliang Zhu, Benjamin W Kozyak, James M Burkman, Neal A Rubinstein, Edward B Lankford, Hansell H Stedman, Taitan Nguyen, Sanford Levine, Joseph B Shrager
Department of Pathology, Anatomy, and Cell Biology Faculty Papers
BACKGROUND: Several physiological adaptations occur in the respiratory muscles in rodent models of elastase-induced emphysema. Although the contractile properties of the diaphragm are altered in a way that suggests expression of slower isoforms of myosin heavy chain (MHC), it has been difficult to demonstrate a shift in MHCs in an animal model that corresponds to the shift toward slower MHCs seen in human emphysema. METHODS: We sought to identify MHC and corresponding physiological changes in the diaphragms of rats with elastase-induced emphysema. Nine rats with emphysema and 11 control rats were studied 10 months after instillation with elastase. MHC isoform …
The Cardiotoxicity Of Carbon Monoxide, Ashvin P. Patel
The Cardiotoxicity Of Carbon Monoxide, Ashvin P. Patel
Peninsula Medical School Theses
The mechanism(s) responsible for the cardiotoxicity of CO are not clear and do not appear to arise solely from tissue hypoxia. Tissue hypoxia is produced by CO binding to haemoglobin and reducing the amount of oxygen carried by the blood in vivo. CO-induced hypoxia in vivo may be responsible for producing conditions such as those found during ischaemia/reperfusion (l/R) injury. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during l/R injury is established and responsible for cellular/tissue damage from the oxidative damage. We postulate that oxidative stress is responsible for the CO-associated cardiac morbidities found in some cases following severe acute exposure to …
Risk Factors Associated With The Mucociliary Apparatus In Intensive Care Patients, Ross James Kay
Risk Factors Associated With The Mucociliary Apparatus In Intensive Care Patients, Ross James Kay
Peninsula Medical School Theses
Initially, there were two principal aims of this investigation. A laboratory based project studying the effect of elevated fraction of inspired oxygen on the ciliary coverage of rat trachea in culture and a clinically based investigation of the ciliary coverage and frequency of ciliary ultrastructural abnormalities in the bronchus of intensive care unit patients. The mucociliary apparatus is the main airway defence mechanism protecting the lungs from respiratory infections. It is vital in intubated patients, as they lack the back up clearance mechanism normally provided by the cough reflex. Ciliary coverage and ultrastructural integrity are two key components of effective …

Antibodies Against Affinity-Purified, Surface-Exposed Outer Membrane Proteins Of Edwardsiella Ictaluri Block Invasion Into Fathead Minnow Epithelial Cells, Ramona T. Skirpstunas, Thomas J. Baldwin
Antibodies Against Affinity-Purified, Surface-Exposed Outer Membrane Proteins Of Edwardsiella Ictaluri Block Invasion Into Fathead Minnow Epithelial Cells, Ramona T. Skirpstunas, Thomas J. Baldwin
Animal, Dairy, and Veterinary Science Faculty Publications
Surface-exposed outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Edwardsiella ictaluri were isolated by selective solubilization of inner membrane proteins from total membrane preparations. Purification of biotin-labeled, insoluble, surface-exposed proteins using streptavidin columns was performed, and single-dimension sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) showed four major OMPs, with apparent molecular weights of 22, 31, 59, and 72 kilodaltons (kDa). Purified surface-exposed proteins corresponded to proteins isolated from total outer membrane preparations resolved by SDS–PAGE, showing that surface-exposed proteins are within the outer membrane fraction and can be successfully isolated using affinity purification. Polyclonal antiserum against these surface-exposed OMPs was produced in New Zealand …

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
In this study, the effect of vitamin E usage (75 days, 45 mg/day of vitamin E (DL-\alpha tocopheryl acetate)) on the myofibrillar proteins in male Morkaraman lamb meat was investigated. SDS-PAGE gels indicated that vitamin E supplementation to the diet did not have any effect on actin and myosin; however it had a fractional effect on tropomyosin. For pH values, no differences were observed between the control and vitamin E supplemented groups.

Evaluation Of Three Different Vaccination Regimes Against Newcastle Disease In Central Anatolia, Osman Ergani̇ş, Uçkun Sai̇t Uçan
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
A change in the vaccination strategy used in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey to combat the effects of infections with endemic virulent Newcastle disease virus (NDV) in maternally immune birds is described in this retrospective work. A novel vaccination schedule was applied to approximately 2,230,000 chickens from different breeds. The alterations were based on the use of an inactivated NDV + infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) and the application of aerosol vaccines with different timings compared to traditional programmes. In a district in which Newcastle disease (ND) epidemics had been occurring, a satisfactory humoral protection (mHI titre >log 2^7) …

Three Legal Frameworks For Regulating Genetic Technology, Wilson R. Huhn
Akron Law Faculty Publications
The Genetic Age promises another exponential increase in human knowledge and potential. ... This article describes three frameworks the law uses to regulate genetic technology: (1) Individual Rights and Duties; (2) Scientific Regulation by Administrative Agencies; and (3) Legislative Preemption. ... This framework involves the lowest level of government oversight over genetic technology. ... At present, the FDA and National Institutes of Health (NIH) administer regulatory control of genetic technology as applied to human beings, but the jurisdiction of these agencies is limited. ... Attorney Judith Cregan has recorded a number of "serious problems" with FDA and NIH regulation of …

Biological habitats and mineral resources in deep-waters should be identified, summarized into a database and their locations mapped. Comprehensive maps of deep-water resources are a prerequisite for managing these areas and their associated resources. In addition, this type of information is useful in mitigating conflicting user-group interests and protecting biodiversity. In the South Atlantic Bight (SAB), biological habitats of importance to deep-water fisheries resources include coral mounds, “live bottom” areas, rock outcroppings, man-made structures, tilefish mud bottom, and possibly mineral deposit areas such as manganese nodules and pavement sites. Congressional mandates, such as the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) provisions of …
