Methylmercury (MeHg), a known neurotoxicant, is found in seafood, leading to regular exposure of humans to this compound. Many of the molecular targets and detoxifying components of MeHg toxicity, including glutathione ...

Cost as an Independent Variable (CAIV) is a way to develop systems in which the cost for the system is fixed and all other system attributes are traded off to meet the fixed cost. The Government has required CAIV to be ...

It is plausible that calcium intake and the calcium: magnesium (Ca:Mg) intake ratio play an essential role in the development of colorectal cancer. The first project of this dissertation was to determine the role of calcium ...

In this work, molecular simulations are used to calculate the vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) of polymer-grafted nanoparticles under a wide range of conditions, with the main goal to explore the balance between nanoparticle-polymer ...

The present technique to correct for instrument variations between fiber-optic probe based Raman spectroscopic systems is through the use of a NIST tungsten calibrated lamp spectrum. This method does not accurately correct ...

Call Me When You Land is a collection of eight short stories that explore the passage of time, what it means to leave or return home, the feeling of being adrift in the world, and the search for human connection. In “Shelby ...
