Chemometric Methods for the Determination of Volatile Organic Compounds with Microsensor Arrays.
(2008)
This research addresses critical chemometric modeling and data analysis functions needed to guide the design and implementation of novel meso-scale and micro-scale instrumentation that incorporates chromatographic separation ...
Pharmaceutical Cocrystal Eutectic Analysis: Study of Thermodynamic Stability, Solubility, and Phase Behavior
(2010)
Cocrystals are an emerging solid-state form to change physicochemical and biopharmaceutical drug properties. This dissertation focuses on the thermodynamic stability and solubility of pharmaceutical cocrystals. Specifically, ...
Dendron Avidity Platforms with Orthogonal Focal Point Coupling Site.
(2010)
This thesis explores the design and synthesis of bifunctional or modular platforms from poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrons. PAMAM dendrons with an orthogonal focal point are evaluated, testing several click chemistry ...
Micro-hydrodynamics of deformable objects.
(2011)
We use a bead-spring model simulated by Brownian Dynamics (BD) with hydrodynamic interactions represented by the Rotne-Prager tensor, or simulated by Stochastic Rotation Dynamics (SRD) to study the dynamics of a wide range ...
Engineering the Quantitative PCR Assay for Decreased Cost and Complexity.
(2011)
The quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is an assay of target nucleic acid concentration. Clinical applications of quantitative PCR include measurement of HIV viral load, measurement of bacterial infection, and ...
Formal Cycloadditions Driven by the Homolytic Opening of Strained, Saturated Ring Systems
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-01-23)
The field of strain-driven, radical formal cycloadditions is experiencing a surge in activity motivated by a renaissance in free radical chemistry and growing demand for sp3-rich ring systems. The former has been driven ...
Superior Metal-Organic Framework Activation with Dimethyl Ether
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-12-23)
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are demonstrated to be readily activated by treatment with the low surface tension, low boiling point solvent dimethyl ether (DME). The mildness of the method enables access to high surface ...
Transparent and Self-Healing Elastomers for Reconfigurable 3D Materials
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-12)
Transparent soft materials are widely used in applications ranging from packaging to flexible displays, wearable devices, and optical lenses. Nevertheless, soft materials are susceptible to mechanical damage, leading to ...
Top-down enrichment of oil field microbiomes to limit souring and control oil composition during extraction operations
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2022-12)
Microbial processes sour oil, corrode equipment, and degrade hydrocarbons at an annual global cost to the oil and gas industry of nearly $2 billion. However, top-down control of these microbial processes can reduce their ...
Photochemical C(sp2)−H Pyridination via Arene–Pyridinium Electron Donor–Acceptor Complexes
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-11-14)
This report describes the development of a photochemical method for C(sp2)−H pyridination that leverages the photoexcitation of electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complexes. Experimental and DFT studies show that black light ...
