Development Of Quantitative Bioanalytical Methods For The Measurement Of Pharmaceutical Compounds Via Hplc-Uv And Hplc-Ms/Ms, Melissa A. Mcculloch

ETD Archive

Research in pharmaceutical treatments for illnesses and disease processes has rapidly grown in the past decade. The field is fueled by advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanics of the human body, coupled with the development of sophisticated scientific instruments which can efficiently generate massive amounts of important data. This has led to an ever-growing need for the development of quantitative bioanalytical methods to measure pharmaceutical compounds. In this work, the theory behind the analytical processes and instruments that make these investigations possible is discussed. Further, the development of two high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methods with both ultra …

Systems Chemistry And Parrondo’S Paradox: Computational Models Of Thermal Cycling, Daniel C. Osipovitch, Carl Barratt, Pauline M. Schwartz

Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Faculty Publications

A mathematical concept known as Parrondo’s paradox motivated the development of several novel computational models of chemical systems in which thermal cycling was explored. In these kinetics systems we compared the rates of formation of product under cycling temperature and steady-sate conditions. We found that a greater concentration of product was predicted under oscillating temperature conditions. Our computational models of thermal cycling suggest new applications in chemical and chemical engineering systems.

Molecular And Morphological Divergence In A Pair Of Bird Species And Their Ectoparasites, Noah K. Whiteman, Vishal S. Dosanjh, Ricardo L. Palma, Joshua M. Hull, Rebecca T. Kimball, Pablo Sánchez, José Hernán Sarasola, Patricia G. Parker

Biology Department Faculty Works

In an evolutionary context, parasites tend to be morphologically conservative relative to their hosts. However, the rate of neutral molecular evolution across many parasite lineages is faster than in their hosts. Although this relationship is apparent at the macroevolutionary scale, insight into the processes underpinning it may be gained through investigations at the microevolutionary scale. Birds and their ectoparasitic lice have served as important natural experiments in co-evolution. Here, we compared mitochondrial and morphological divergence in 2 recently diverged avian host lineages and their parasites. Glapagos hawks (Buteo galapagoensis) are phenotypically divergent from their closest mainland relatives, the Swainson's hawk …

The Chinese Regulatory Licensing Regime For Pharmaceutical Products: A Law And Economics Analysis, Qing Zhang

Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review

China's pharmaceutical market has expanded dramatically in the past twenty years and is expected to become the largest in the world by the year 2050. However, entry to the market remains difficult for many international pharmaceutical manufacturers due to the country's costly and complicated regulatory licensing requirements. This Article provides an overview of the regulatory licensing regime for pharmaceutical products in China. Then, the Article evaluates three key features of the regulatory licensing regime through a law and economics approach. These features include the use of licensing, as contrasted with alternative regulatory and non-regulatory mechanisms; the standards to be met …

Reasons For Seasons: A Creative Component Curriculum Unit, Josh Judisch

Graduate Research Papers

The Reasons for Seasons is a 3rd grade Earth science unit that was constructed with the 5E learning cycle lesson plan. Using learning cycles with the inclusion of inquiry based learning is a great way to move from a teacher-centered classroom to a student- centered classroom. The unit was created following the Masters of Arts in Science Education course work. The course work gave a great deal of insight to the development of this unit. The unit is based in district standards and the Iowa Core Curriculum, an active science reform that provides a guide for teachers to deliver meaningful, …

A Study Of The Morphology Of Tatenectes Laramiensis, A Cryptocleidoid Plesiosaur From The Sundance Formation (Wyoming, Usa), Hallie P. Street

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Tatenectes laramiensis is a cryptocleidoid plesiosaur from the Late Jurassic Sundance Formation. This study primarily concerns a partial skeleton comprised of dorsal vertebrae, ribs, gastralia, and pelvic girdle. Even though the skeleton is incomplete, it is hypothesized that the preserved fossils are sufficient to indicate the overall body shape and also the preferred habitat of Tatenectes. Possibly the most notable of the novel characters is the pachyostotic state of the gastralia. In relation to the ribs and overall size of Tatenectes, in comparison to the gastralia in related taxa, these gastralia are disproportionately robust. The combination of these morphologies suggests …

Review Of John Stuart Mill: Victorian Firebrand, Mark Donoghue

Business Papers and Journal Articles

John Stuart Mill: Victorian Firebrand opens in St James Park, on a warm summer’s morning, with the teenage Mill striding to his office in Leadenhall Street in the financial heart of the City of London. Suddenly, Mill’s attention is caught by a small bundle abandoned beneath an oak tree. Curious, Mill kneels down beside it and unwraps the layers of soiled blankets only to discover a dead, newborn baby. This grisly experience remained etched in Mill’s mind for the duration of his life and was perhaps formative in shaping his views on the twin rights of life and liberty.

Review Of J.S.Mill Revisited: Biographical And Political Explorations, Mark Donoghue

Business Papers and Journal Articles

The commemorative John Stuart Mill bicentennial conference held at University College London in June 2006 has generated renewed interest in the life and work of this notable Victorian personality. In this latest offering, Bruce Kinzer, the veteran of several scholarly works focusing on various aspects of Mill's political thought, has presented his latest deliberations in a work that focuses on two important and overlapping subjects: the first group of chapters cover certain familiar biographical themes relating strictly to Mill's formative years while the latter half of the book dclves into various facets of Mill's political thought and activities in relation …

Assur Is King Of Persia: Illustrations Of The Book Of Esther In Some Nineteenth-Century Sources, Steven W. Holloway

Libraries

The marriage of archaeological referencing and picture Bibles in the nineteenth century resulted in an astonishing variety of guises worn by the court of Ahasuerus in Esther. Following the exhibition of Neo-Assyrian sculpture in the British Museum and the wide circulation of such images in various John Murray publications, British illustrators like Henry Anelay defaulted to Assyrian models for kings and rulers in the Old Testament, including the principal actors in Esther, even though authentic Achaemenid Persian art had been available for illustrative pastiche for decades. This curious adoptive choice echoed British national pride in its splendid British Museum collection …

Learning Styles And Stress Levels Of Cebu Normal University Undergraduate Students, Eva Marie P. Gacasan, Emmanuel V. Hernani, Martin C. Sentina

CNU Journal of Higher Education

This study investigated college students’ learning styles and stress levels through a descriptive-comparative survey design. Students’ demographic characteristics such as college, gender and year level were made as control variables in the study. Two hundred forty-nine (249) students from the three colleges of the university – arts and sciences, teacher education and nursing - participated in the study. Sample selection was done through stratified random sampling. The instruments used in measuring the variables were the Index of Learning Styles (ILS) by Felder and Soloman (1997) and the Student Stress Inventory (SSI) which was researcher-made. Results showed visual and sensing learning …

The State Of The Birds United States Of America 2009, Bob Ford, Paul Schmidt, Miyoko Chu

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

Foreword

Birds Are Important Indicators of Our Nation’s Environmental Health

The United States is blessed with diverse landscapes, a wealth of natural resources, and spectacular wildlife, including more than 800 bird species. Birds are a national treasure and a heritage we share with people around the world, as billions of migratory birds follow the seasons across oceans and continents. Our passion for nature is evident: Wildlife watching generates $122 billion in economic output annually, and one in every four American adults is a bird watcher.

In the past 200 years, however, the U.S. human population has skyrocketed from about 8 …
