Characterization of an arsenite-oxidizing caballeronia sp. soil bacterium and its mutualistic relationship with trifolium pratense for arsenic remediation
(2021)
The proposed application of the mutualistic interaction between a native arsenicoxidizing soil bacteria and Trifolium pratense in Northwestern Ontario mine sites is a novel
approach to remediation. This thesis studies the ...
Studies on cultivation, cell wall development, and gene analysis of marine microalgae pleurochrysis carterae and isochrysis zhanjiangensis
(2021)
In last decade, the mankind has been intensively facing the climate changes in the whole
world, because the demand for fuel and greenhouse gas emissions isincreasing dramatically,
especially the amount of carbon dioxide. ...
Enhanced hydrolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics by ozone and ultrasound pretreatment
(2021)
The rapidly accumulating post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics
pose a great threat to our environment as they constitute one of the most used products in
our day-to-day life. As a result, degradation ...
Recovering the proteome of archived biomedical specimens
(2021)
While several proteomic studies have undertaken the challenge of analyzing formalin fixed
paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue, few have developed optimized protocols for studying
FFPE human brain tissue. This study will ...
Efficacy of a multimolecular extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue
(2021)
As the genetic basis and gene expression components are being discovered for an increasing
number of diseases and disorders there is a rising interest in using multiomic approaches to
better understand these conditions. ...
Abundance, transportation, and preservation of Mysis diluviana eDNA in freshwater ecosystems
(2021)
Environmental DNA (eDNA) has proven to be a valuable tool in detecting rare or
invasive species, particularly within the Great Lakes and surrounding aquatic ecosystems.
Recent work has shown that sedimentary eDNA (sedDNA) ...
Study of the activation of the inflammasome protein complex by Haemophilus influenzae Type a
(2021)
Haemophilus influenzae (Hi) is a gram-negative bacterium capable of causing
severe invasive infection such as meningitis and is classified by the presence or absence
of polysaccharide capsule. The polysaccharide capsule ...
Isolation of arsenite-oxidizing bacteria with plant growth promoting characteristics to enhance phytoremediation of arsenic
(2021)
A common strategy for remediation of arsenic is bacterial remediation by oxidation of As(III) to
the less toxic As(V). Another widely accepted technique for arsenic remediation is
phytoremediation however in highly ...
