A novel mouse model of acute antibody-mediated transplant rejection shows simultaneous complement activating and anti-inflammatory effects of donor specific IgG antibodies
DownloadFall 2013
We developed a small animal model of pure antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) by utilizing fully major histocompatibility complex (MHC) mismatched kidney allografts in mice. By examining resultant ABMR pathology, we show that terminal complement products C5a and C5b-9 are crucial in establishing...

An examination of linking and blocking procedures for use in deflection cantilever array-based protein detection
DownloadFall 2011
In this project common linking and blocking procedures were examined for use in multiplexed deflection cantilever array-based detection of proteins. A human interferon gamma (INF-γ) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the linking and blocking...

Atomic Electronics With Silicon Dangling Bonds: Error Correction, Logical Gates, and Electrostatic Environment
DownloadSpring 2020
With the potential to unleash a new basis for electronics that are more energy efficient, faster, and at the ultimate scale in size density, single atoms as building blocks for miniature circuity have long been a technological holy grail. Preventing significant development have been various...

Atomic Force Microscopy Characterization of Hydrogen Terminated Silicon (100) 2x1 Reconstruction
DownloadFall 2015
Non-contact Atomic Force Microscopy (NC-AFM) is a Scanning Probe Microscopy tool offering unique non-perturbative analysis of surfaces and adsorbates at the atomic scale. AFM precisely oscillates a sharp tip above a sample. By monitoring the shift in resonance frequency of a quartz tuning fork...

The kidneys regulate total body fluid volume, acid-base status, and electrolyte composition through the filtration of large amounts of plasma by glomerular capillaries, followed by selective reabsorption of solutes and water by renal tubules. To sustain filtration, the hydraulic pressure within...
