Use of surfaces functionalized with phage tailspike proteins to capture and detect bacteria in biosensors and bioassays
DownloadFall 2010
The food safety and human diagnostics markets are in need of faster working, reliable, sensitive, specific, low cost bioassays and biosensors for bacterial detection. This thesis reports the use of P22 bacteriophage tailspike proteins (TSP) immobilized on silanized silicon surfaces, roughened at...

Use of Temperature data for assisted history matching and characterization of SAGD heterogeneous reservoirs within EnKF framework
DownloadFall 2012
The Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF), a parameter estimation approach using the real-time DTS temperature observations is proposed for automatic history matching and quantitative reservoir characterization of SAGD reservoirs. EnKF algorithm is coupled with the discrete cosine transform (DCT) for...
