Effect Of Medium On Epigenetics In Fertilized And Cloned Embryos, Ethan Loertscher

Student Research Symposium

• The metabolic pathways that oocytes and embryos take during early development have an important effect on epigenetic events. This leads to the question of whether different cultures affect epigenetics.
• There are some concerns that serum-containing mediums may be correlated with poor health outcomes.
• Acetylation of lysine 9 on histone 3 is associated with chromatin configurations. The intensity of H₃K₉ac is much lower in cloned embryos (somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT)) than what is seen in normal embryos
• This study was aiming to compare IVF and SCNT embryos cultured in a medium containing serum and a medium …

Use Of Different Daily Light Integrals To Study The Water Saving Potential Of Petunia, Anju Chaudhary

Student Research Symposium

• Daily light integral (DLI) plays a crucial role in growth and development of petunia.
• Reducing irrigation volume without compromising plant growth and productivity can decrease water usage in greenhouses.
• Adjusting greenhouse light intensity might offer a potential solution for managing water effectively in petunia production.

E-Cigarette Impacts On Aspects Of Dementia: Basic Research, Daniel S. Da Silva, Lucy N. Scribner

Student Research Symposium

E-cigarettes and Dementia

• Although smoking has declined in recent years, e-cigarette (vaping) use has drastically increased, particularly in youth.
• Smoking escalates risk for vascular dementia, with women more impacted than men.
• Dementia - Impaired capacity to remember, which interferes with the ability to perform daily functions.

A Comparison Of Gray Wolf Home Range Estimates, James Dye

Student Research Symposium

For this study we use GPS collar data from two wolf populations in Turkey and Croatia to compare their home ranges in order to determine which populations home ranges are larger. These two populations live in similar climates but have different impacts from human activity. The wolf population in Turkey experiences larger human presence and almost no natural prey availability, while in Croatia the wolf population exists in a more natural habitat with a substantial natural prey base. This creates an interesting comparison between the two populations and raises the question which average home range would be larger.

Searching For Commonalities In Secondary Structure Of Prmt Targets With Python Programming, Emeline Haroldsen

Student Research Symposium

PRMT is an enzyme that:

• Methylates protein targets without use of a consensus sequence
• Has implications in embryonic development, carcinogenesis, cardiac health and many other diseases^1,2,3
• Has 9 isoforms. Native PRMT1 is tetrameric (figure 1)

The mechanisms underlying PRMT target recognition and binding are unknown, limiting the study of PRMT related diseases. However: •

• Proteomics have identified thousands of PRMT targets⁴
• Commonalities in secondary structure may indicate a recognition element²
• Prior research predicted (with JPred5) a surprising proportion (20.35%) of target methylation sites within alpha helices of proteins (figure 2).

Leavening Agents Substitution In Chocolate Chip Muffins, Cassie Alder, Ashley Dawes, Savannah Harbison

Student Research Symposium

The primary function of leavening agents in baking is to cause the dough or batter to rise, allowing the baked product to be less dense, have more volume and be more aesthetically pleasing.¹ The three main types of leavening agents are baking powder, yeast, and the production of carbon dioxide steam as the product is baked.² These different types of leavening agents behave very differently and the purpose of this experiment was to discover and record the differences that occur in chocolate chip muffins. This research is important because if baking powder is unavailable the research shows what …

Thickened Carbonated Beverages, Adam Hair, Marissa Cook, Clarissa Richins

Student Research Symposium

Dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, affects many individuals around the world with an array of underlying medical conditions, and rates of dysphagia are expected to increase as the population ages^1,2. Dysphagia affects the swallowing reflex, which can lead to a greater risk of aspiration and subsequent infections. In order to mitigate this, thin liquids are thickened following IDDSI standards so they can be more easily swallowed by those with dysphagia. Research has shown that carbonation in beverages improves the swallowing reflex over non-carbonated beverages¹. There are different methods and products that can be used to thicken beverages …

Effects On Cytokine Supplementation On Bovine Embryo Development, Pratt Griffeth

Student Research Symposium

• Artificial reproductive techniques (ARTs), such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF), allow for embryo production beyond what is naturally possible.
• To conduct IVF oocytes must reach maturity via in-vitro maturation (IVM), be fertilized by IVF, and the resulting embryos cultured via in-vitro culture (IVC).
• Modifications in maturation media and culture media are often tested experimentally to increase effectiveness of ARTs.
• Researchers have found that supplementing a group of three cytokines (fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), leukemia inhibiting factor (LIF), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), together known as FLI) in maturation media improved oocyte maturation in pigs and bovine cloning success.^1-2
• Our …

Experiential Learning In Rf Circuit Design, Benjamin Cuebas

Undergraduate Research Conference at Missouri S&T

This research project will explore the intricacies of Radio Frequency (RF) circuitry design, demonstrating acquired insights by constructing a discrete RF amplifier with digital input attenuation control. The study will delve into a multitude of RF topics such as serial communication, digital data storage, transmission line theory, impedance matching, network parameters, amplifier classes, and Smith chart analysis. The RF amplifier will be designed to have an approximately 15dB input gain/attenuation digitally controlled by an external microcontroller. The device will operate at 50 MHz, in the VHF frequency range, with an input and output impedance of 50 . A network analyzer …
