A survey of fungal endophytes from healthy branches of Ginkgo biloba
(2019)Ginkgo biloba L. is known for being highly resistant to bacterial, insect, and fungal infestations and thus ginkgo trees are commonly cultivated and planted in urban landscapes. The objective of this study was to determine ... -
A survey of online library tutorials: Guiding instructional video creation to use in flipped classrooms
(American Library Association, 2015)There has been a steady increase in library literature on “flipping the classroom.” This teaching strategy requires students to review course material outside the classroom beforehand, thereby allowing more time during ... -
Survey of Public Health Agency of Canada (Ontario region) employees on their knowledge and attitudes towards the "population health approach" / by Bryanna Scott.
(2007)This study develops and advances an understanding of a population health approach by surveying employees at the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) (Ontario Region). It was expected that the research would provide valuable ... -
Survey of the mainland and island belts, Thunder Bay Silver District, Ontario : fluid inclusions, mineralogy, and sulfur isotopes
(1987)The Thunder Bay Silver District is composed of two curvilinear groups of veins, the Mainland and Island Belts. The veins can be mineralogically divided into the barren, silverbearing, and 5-element association veins. During ... -
Survivable multipath provisioning schemes in mesh transport networks
(2012-11-10)Back to the 1 960s, Internet originated from the military research of survivable, fault-tolerant and distributed computer networks. Half-century later, quarter of Earth' s population use Internet services. International ... -
Sustainability analysis of carbon dioxide emissions on combustion of biomass for electricity
(2022)The transition towards renewable, low-carbon energy is a fundamental element of climate change mitigation. Many countries around the world have set their decarbonization strategies to reduce emissions. The European Union ... -
Sustainable happiness in an ecovillage: exploring the impacts of sustainable living on individual happiness
(2017)While there has been substantial growth in scholarly attention to negative emotional responses to environmental issues such as climate change, limited research has been conducted on the converse, such as how environmentally ... -
Symptoms of depression and social isolation : the consequences of functional hearing impairment in residents of complex continuing care facilities
(2004)Earlier evidence was not conclusive about whether hearing loss is associated with depression and social isolation in elderly residents. The purpose of this study was to determine whether functional hearing impairment ... -
Synthesis and applications of room temperature ionic liquids
(2017)A variety of room temperature ionic liquids have been synthesized and applied to various reactions. Four of these ionic liquids were prepared in a chiral manner: [1-butyl-3- methylimidazolium][L-lactate], [1-butyl-3-me ... -
Synthesis and biodegradation of model compounds related to hydrocarbon-type dielectric fluids
(1981)Uniroyal PA0-20E, an oligomer of 1-octene, is a dielectric fluid proposed as a replacement for polychlorinated biphenyls. No studies on its biodegradation have been reported in the literature to date. This thesis ... -
Synthesis and characterization of donor-acceptor oligothiophenes
(2005)The field of organic conductors is multidisciplinary in nature. This thesis introduces and characterizes new conducting materials based on heterosubstituted oligothiophenes. Substituted bithiophenes, terthiophenes, and ... -
Synthesis and cytotoxic activity of diosgenyl saponin analogues
(2008)Saponins are naturally occurring glycosides that are widely distributed in the plant kingdom and lower marine organisms. Saponins consist of a carbohydrate chain attached to either a steroid or triterpene aglycone. Diosgenyl ... -
