    • Design and Fabrication of Electrochemical Sensors for Interleukin-6 
      Buckey, Grace; 0000-0002-5643-687X (2023-11-16)
      Department: Chemistry
      Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is an inflammatory cytokine involved in the immune response but when dysregulated becomes problematic. We are interested in IL-6 due to its involvement in preterm birth, musculoskeletal infection, and ...
    • Development of Multianalyte Microphysiometry for the Study of Islets and Toxins 
      Snider, Rachel Michelle (2008-12-22)
      Department: Chemistry
      Multianalyte microphysiometry is a real-time method for evaluating cellular metabolism using the multianalyte microphysiometer (MAMP), an instrument capable of measuring extracellular changes in the flux rates of oxygen, ...
    • Electrochemical Instrumentation for Real-Time Monitoring of Biological Model Systems 
      Cognata, Andrew David (2016-04-11)
      Department: Chemistry
      New technologies for model biological systems aid in drug development and toxicology by providing an in vitro environment that closely mimics in vivo conditions but require new instrumentation to meet needs in monitoring ...
    • Electrochemical Studies of Biosensor Mediators 
      Calhoun, Margaret Caroline; 0000-0002-9750-5931 (2022-03-25)
      Department: Chemistry
      Electrochemical mediators, redox-active compounds used as electron transfer shuttles, are required for various electrochemical applications such as fuel or photovoltaic cells and biosensors. Biosensors, in particular, ...
    • Integration of Photosystem I with Carbon-Based Materials for Solar Energy Conversion Devices 
      Winter, Kevin Matthew (2014-07-25)
      Department: Chemistry
      Photosystem I is a photoactive membrane protein found in higher plants, some algae, and cyanobacteria. It is part of the solar energy conversion mechanism that fuels most life on the planet. It has been shown that photocurrents ...
    • Nanodiamond macroelectrodes and ultramicroelectrode arrays for bio-analyte detection 
      Raina, Supil (2011-12-13)
      Department: Interdisciplinary Materials Science
      Properties such as high electrical conductivity; chemical and electrochemical stability over a wide range of conditions; rapid electron transfer kinetics for different redox systems; and reproducible electrical, microstructural ...
    • New Materials Interfaces and Modeling for Photosystem I-Based Biohybrid Solar Cells 
      Robinson, Maxwell Thatcher (2018-01-04)
      Department: Chemical Engineering
      Photosystem I (PSI) is a naturally abundant protein photodiode that sustains a 1.1 V light-induced reduction potential with nearly perfect internal quantum efficiency. Due to its abundance, stability, and optoelectronic ...
    • Photosystem I From Higher Plants Enhances Electrode Performance 
      Gunther, Darlene (2013-04-01)
      Department: Interdisciplinary Materials Science
