Structural Basis for the Regulation of a Conserved TonB-dependent Iron Transport System via Cell-surface Signaling in Gram-negative Bacteria
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Cell-surface signaling (CSS) pathways are highly conserved systems in Gram-negative bacteria that allow the cell to efficiently respond to environmental stimuli through transcriptional regulation. Three distinct proteins ...
Strategic Functionalization of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes to Manipulate their Electronic and Optical Properties
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are unique materials that exhibit chirality-specific properties due to their one-dimensional confinement. As a result, they are explored for a wide range of applications including ...
Ultrasensitive Lateral Flow Nucleic Acid Biosensors Based on Novel Macro-/Nano-Materials
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Video summarizing a Ph.D. dissertation for a non-specialist audience.
Micro-/Nano- Materials Based Ultrasensitive Lateral Flow Nucleic Acid Biosensors
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Ultrasensitive detection of nucleic acids plays a very important role in the field of molecular diagnosis for the detection of various diseases. Lateral flow biosensors (LFB) are convenient, easy-to-use, patient friendly ...
Thiazole vs. Thiophene: Heterocycle Effects on the Properties of Fused-Ring Conjugated Materials
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Conjugated polymers and related molecular materials comprise a field of materials chemistry focused on the development of semiconducting organic plastics that find use in applications such as organic solar cells and organic ...
