Synthesis, Photophysics, Nonlinear Absorption, and Photodynamic Therapy Study of Iridium(III) Complexes
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Video summarizing a Ph.D. dissertation for a non-specialist audience.
Stereospecitic Phototransformations of Axially Chiral Chromaphores
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Video summarizing Ph.D. dissertation for a non-specialist audience.
Synthesis, Photophysics, and Nonlinear Absorption of Platinum (II) and Iridium (III) Complexes
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Square planar d8 platinum(II) complexes and octahedral d6 iridium(III) complexes were synthesized. Their photophysics were studied in detail. Structure-property relationship was studied by varying the substitution on the ...
Ligand Binding and Catalysis in Selected Sirtuin Isozymes
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Due to their intimate roles in survival, longevity as well as pathogenesis via “epigenetic” and “metabolic” regulatory mechanisms, sirtuins have gained considerable interest toward undertaking detailed biochemical/biophysical ...
Synthesis and Characterization of 2,3-Difunctionalized Thieno[3,4-b]Pyrazine-Based Terthienyls Structure-Function Relationships and Side Chain Tunability
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
The ability to tune the physical, electronic, and optical properties of polymer precursors has garnered a great deal of interest in the conjugated organic materials field. The Rasmussen group has previously demonstrated ...
Lateral Flow Nucleic Acid Biosensor for the Detection of Sexually Transmitted Diseases
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Nucleic acid detection is of central importance for the diagnosis and treatment of genetic diseases, infectious agents, bio-warfare agents, and drug discovery. Nucleic acid testing for diseases is exclusively performed in ...
Enhanced Sensitivity of Lateral Flow Strip Biosensors Based on Enyzmatic Reaction and Nanomaterials
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Ultrasensitive detection for trace amount of proteins plays pivotal role in the diagnosis of specific diseases in clinical application, basic discovery research and the improvement of proteomics. Recently, lateral flow ...
Identifying Causes of Dissolved Oxygen Depletion and Determination of Sediment Oxygen Demand in the Souris River
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
The Upper Souris River was placed on the Environmental Protection Agencies (EPA) impaired waters list for low dissolved oxygen (DO). A Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) study was conducted to determine possible causes of DO ...
Iron Waste Based Point-of-Use Device to Treat Pesticides in Water
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Organochlorine pesticide (OCP) contamination in groundwater is a problem worldwide, more severely in rural areas that normally cannot afford centralized water treatment systems. Iron nanoparticles have shown their ability ...
Ultraviolet Disinfection Pilot Study at the Fargo Wastewater Treatment Plant
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
A pilot study was carried out at the Fargo wastewater treatment plant to determine the impacts that flow rate, water quality, and system fouling may have on the efficiency of UV disinfection. A second-order model successfully ...
