Anti-Dna Antibodies In Systemic Lupus, Michelle Fay Cavallo Jan 2019

Anti-Dna Antibodies In Systemic Lupus, Michelle Fay Cavallo

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019

Two novel methodologies were developed for purification and functional (DNA hydrolytic) assessment of anti-DNA antibodies of IgG isotype from patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Earlier protocols for purification and analysis of antibody hydrolytic abilities were lengthy, laborious, and potentially disruptive to antibody function. Purification protocols failed to capture all four IgG subclasses and produced multiple bands outside the range of IgG on electrophoretic separation. Hydrolysis assays were discontinuous increasing the likelihood of introducing error and making them better suited to analysis of endpoint kinetics rather than reaction kinetics. A two-step, affinity-based purification protocol was developed which utilized magnetic Dynabeads …

Carbon Mountains And Silicon Valleys: Reality Imagined In The Age Of Technological Reproducibility, Raven Doyle

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019

Realism, defined by its most influential theorist André Bazin has been, and continues to be, a dominant and defining cinematic discourse. However, the lack of regard for animation is in need of retrospection. No genre of film adheres more to the original principles of cinema’s intention than animation, yet it is discredited because of its derivative form. The purpose of this paper is to propose a redefinition of the impression of reality in cinema to create inclusion and space for animation and new, emerging technologies. This reality, redefined, is divided into two categories: the carbon and the constructed. Analyzed through …

Children’S Moral Sensitivity: An Examination Of The Suspected Link Between Altruistic Punishment And Moral Judgments, Charles Dukes Jan 2019

Children’S Moral Sensitivity: An Examination Of The Suspected Link Between Altruistic Punishment And Moral Judgments, Charles Dukes

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019

Developmental research on moral psychology has long been driven by the classic studies of Lawrence Kohlberg with an almost exclusive focus on reasoning. The adoption of an evolutionary perspective has opened moral psychology to investigations into the deep roots of morality. From this perspective, it is thought that group living (cooperation), evolved psychological mechanisms, disgust, emotion, and punishment make for the complex building blocks that is morality. Based on this notion, it is quite possible that morality is present early in life and driven by the forces of natural selection. Thus, moral development may be understood by taking a different …
