Development and Applications of Mass Spectrometric Methods for Proteome Analysis and Protein Sequence Characterization
DownloadFall 2013
Mass spectrometry (MS) is widely used in proteomic work for protein identification and characterization. A key to the success of MS for protein analysis is related to sample preparation. Current sample preparation methods do not meet all the needs of protein or proteome analysis. My thesis work...

Fall 2013
This dissertation describes the use of a novel Pt deposition to prepare nickel- and carbon-supported platinum catalysts. The deposition is referred to herein as the platinum counter electrode deposition. The source of platinum is the sacrificial dissolution of a blacked platinum counter electrode...

A New Approach to Molecular Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts: Allyl-capped Trialkylphosphoranimide-bridged Late First-row Transition Metal Clusters
DownloadFall 2017
A series of new trialkylphosphoranimide allyl-capped clusters [M(ƞ3-allyl)(NPR)3]2, (M = Fe, Co or Ni, R = Et, tBu or Ph) were synthesized. The nickel dimers [Ni(ƞ3-allyl)(NPR3)]2, R = Et, Ph are diamagnetic and have been fully characterized using NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography,...

The Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Multivalent Heterobifunctional Ligands Specific for Shiga Toxin 1 and Shiga Toxin 2
DownloadSpring 2014
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a potential life-threatening condition caused by infection with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7. There are two major types of Shiga toxins, namely, Shiga toxin 1 (Stx1) and Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2), of which, Stx2 is clinically most closely associated...

Directed Evolution Approaches for Improved Genetically Encoded Fluorescent Calcium Ion and Voltage Indicators
DownloadFall 2014
Fluorescent proteins (FP) have revolutionized our imaging technologies and facilitated visualization of biochemical and physiological processes occurring in complex biological systems, which has opened up a new and unprecedented era in cell biology. Although FPs mainly serve as passive...
