Rosette Nanotubes (RNTs) are a class of self-assembled organic nanomaterials generated through the spontaneous hierarchical organization of guanine-cytosine (G˄C) bases with a built-in self-assembling ability. Driven by non-covalent intermolecular forces in solution, G˄C bases self-assemble into...

McKnight-Whitford, Anthony Nicholai
Arsenic is a widespread environmental contaminant whose toxicity depends on its valence and its chemical form. Arsenic species have been typically determined using high pressure liquid chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICPMS), however ICPMS cannot...

My thesis research focused on the development and application of analytical methods that enabled arsenic speciation in biological and environmental samples. A set of complementary chromatographic separation techniques were combined with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and hydride...

An organoarsenic compound, 3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenyl arsenic acid (also known as Roxarsone), has been used as a feed additive. Roxarsone was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to control diseases in poultry, and to improve weight gain, feed efficiency, and meat pigmentation....

Arsenic Speciation Towards Understanding the Environmental Fate of 3-Nitro-4-hydroxyphenylarsonic Acid
DownloadSpring 2013
A common practice in the poultry industry has been the addition of phenylarsenicals to the feed for the animals. However, the fate of these arsenicals is not clear. This thesis focuses on the identification and quantitation of arsenic species in litter of chickens that were fed either a basal...

Detection of biomolecules that are over- or under-expressed in diseases is an important field for early diagnosis, monitoring treatment, and improving patient prognosis. The main goal of my thesis is to utilize DNA nanotechnology combined with nanomaterials to provide sensitive and specific...

A thorough overview of esters and their reductions is presented. A large focus was placed on reductions via homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation. Although several ester hydrogenation systems have been developed, the production of highly enantioenriched alcohols has generally relied upon the usage...
