Spring 2012
Gold and silver dressing alloys were created by DC magnetron sputtering and compared with pure silver nanocrystalline dressings using conventional biological and physical characterization techniques. While the gold/silver dressings were weaker antimicrobials than the pure silver nanocrystalline...

Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy Study of Electron Transport Through Diazonium Derived Films and Mixed – Mode Bonded Layers on Gold and Carbon Surfaces
DownloadSpring 2012
For Molecular Electronics to become a viable replacement or complitment to current elec- tronic devices a fundamental understanding of device operation and functionality is needed. This work explores electron transport through diazonium derived molecular junctions via conductive atomic force...

Cryo-electron microscopy of SERCA interacting with oligomeric phospholamban and oligomeric sarcolipin
DownloadFall 2011
In 2007, heart disease was the second leading cause of death in Canadians. In heart muscle cells, calcium (Ca2+) is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) during contraction and must be replenished for relaxation to occur. Three proteins restore Ca2+ to the SR following contraction: the...

Dependence of the Interfacial Adhesion between Two Different Types of Material on their Electron Work Function and Electrical Conductivity
DownloadFall 2021
We observed and investigated a novel interfacial phenomenon related to the dependence of interfacial bonding or adhesive force (Fad) between two substances on the difference in their Electron Work Functions (EWF) or Δφ, and developed a model to quantify such a dependence. First, using...

Diagenetic Controls on Hydrothermal Fluid Flow in the Osiris, Isis, and Isis East Carlin-Type Gold Showings, Nadaleen Trend, Yukon
DownloadFall 2015
Following ATAC Resources Ltd.’s 2010 discovery of the gold prospects in the Nadaleen Trend (Central Yukon), company geologists and consultants determined that Precambrian carbonate rocks within the trend contain large endowments of gold located in the hinges of anticlines and fault zones. ...

Geochemical Characterization and Fluid History of the Tiger Zone; a Tertiary Distal Carbonate-Replacement Intrusion-Related Gold Deposit, Central Yukon
DownloadSpring 2013
A paragenetic and geochemical study has resulted in the classification of the Tiger zone as a Tertiary-aged intrusion-related gold deposit. Gold-bearing mineralization occurs in two geochemically and temporally distinct assemblages. The first assemblage contains carbonate-replacement,...

Indicators of gold mineralization in the Yellowknife greenstone belt: a lithogeochemistry and mineralogy study
DownloadSpring 2021
Geochemical signatures within an economic deposit are an important indicator used in the exploration of high-grade mineralization. In this study, we aim to identify elements that can act as geochemical indicators for orogenic gold within the Yellowknife greenstone belt that allow the...

Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel-based etalons and etalon arrays for determining the molecular weight of polymers in solution
Download2013
Serpe, Michael J., Islam, Molla R.
Positively and/or negatively charged poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-based microgels were deposited on a single substrate and isolated regions of Au overlayers were deposited on top of the microgels. Each spatially isolated Au overlayer region had a different thickness to make an etalon array. We...

This thesis is concerned with applications of modern solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Investigations of three quite different types are undertaken, each of which attempt to advance knowledge in the fields of chemistry and NMR. The goal of each project is to obtain insight into the effects of...
