Cell Mechanics in Engineering Mechanics

Cell Mechanics in Engineering Mechanics Cell mechanics is not only a frontier field of biomechanics, but also an important part of tissue engineering. It involves the study of cell membrane,…

Investigating KNOX Gene Expression in Aquilegia Petal Spur Development

Organ growth in many flowering plants progresses through two phases: cell proliferation and cell elongation. Recent work has indicated that class 1 KNOX genes regulate cell proliferation. These genes encode…

Friend or Foe: Investigating the Relationship between a Corn Crop and a Native Ragweed Population

As the demand for food increases with the ever-growing world population, crop production and growing efficiency must also be sustainably increased. Many factors, including energy cost, land allocation, and water…

Durability of the Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII) Patch Adhesive

Diabetes, a serious global epidemic growing at a tremendous rate, affects about 26 million people in the United States. Diabetes occurs when the pancreas cannot produce sufficient insulin or use…

Comparing Suturing And Stapling In Coronary Bypass Grafting Anastomosis

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the number one killer worldwide and is responsible for 12.2% of all deaths. CHD is caused by a plaque buildup in the heart’s arteries, which…

Diamagnetic Solutions Show a Significant Reduction in Flow Rate when Exposed to a Magnetic Field Greater than or equal to 0.7 Tesla

Magnetohydrodynamics describes the complex interactions between water and magnetic fields. These interactions are relatively small in magnitude, and difficult to measure. However, the magnet-water interactions can be seen through the…

Characterization and Phylogenetic Analysis of the Cytochrome B Gene (cytb) in Salvelinus fontinalis, Salmo trutta and Salvelinus fontinalis X Salmo trutta within the Lake Champlain Basin

In 2011, record snowfall and rainfall along with tropical storm Irene damaged trout habitat within the tributaries of the Lake Champlain Basin, causing the Salvelinus fontinalis (brook trout) population to…
