Investigation Into The Scope, Limitations, And Mechanistic Aspects Of A Regioselective Acylation Of Cycloplatinated Complexes
(East Carolina University, 2015)
In the reaction of N-isopropyl-N-phenyl-2,2'-bipyridin-6-amine with potassium tetrachloroplatinate, the selective C-H bond activation was complicated by the low selectivity of sp² C-H bond activation in acetonitrile and ...
Uncertainty In Qualitative Risk Analysis And Rating Systems : Modeling Decision Making Determinants
(East Carolina University, 2015)
As workplace risk assessment is pivotal to ensure the safety and health of workers, adopting a reliable technique in performing this assessment cannot be overemphasized. The qualitative risk analysis is considered the most ...
Assessing The Monophyly Of Red Algae And Green Plants Via Core Conserved Informational Genes
(East Carolina University, 2015)
For well over a century the existence of a monophyletic relationship between red algae and green plants has been debated. Many scholars have sought to address this issue, however, a consistent solution to the problem has ...
Genome-Wide Identification And Expression Analysis Of TCP Transcription Factors In Cotton
(East Carolina University, 2015)
TCP proteins are plant-specific transcription factors known to perform a variety of physiological functions during plant growth and development. In the current study, we performed for the first time the comprehensive ...
Genetic control of cell fate specification in Caenorhabditis elegans germline.
(East Carolina University, 2015)
The precise regulation of germ cell fates (sperm or oocyte) lies at the heart of reproduction and fertility. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans hermaphrodites produce a discrete number of sperm during larval development ...
Proposed regulatory role of noncatalytic Adams in ectodomain shedding
(East Carolina University, 2015)
Members of the ADAM (A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease) protein family uniquely exhibit both proteolytic and adhesive properties. Specifically, ADAMs catalyze the conversion of cell-surface proteins to soluble, biologically ...
Runtime Monitoring On Hard Real-Time Operating Systems
(East Carolina University, 2015)
This thesis will compare and evaluate different approaches in integrating runtime monitors into processes running on a hard real-time operating system. The host system is a single board computer (SBC) with a VxWorks 653 ...
General And Device-Specific Quality Of Life In Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy Patients : The Impact Of Shock And Sex
(East Carolina University, 2015)
Background: Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heritable cardiac condition that weakens the heart and results in frequent and often life-threatening arrhythmias, requiring the placement of an ...
The Relation Between Child Behavior, School Engagement, And Perceived Barriers And Parent Involvement
(East Carolina University, 2015)
There are positive outcomes for children whose parents are involved in school. Factors such as socioeconomic status (SES), child externalizing behaviors, parent perceptions on school engagement, and perceived barriers can ...
Investigating Scuba Divers' Attitudes To Sustainable Shipwreck Diving In North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2015)
This study examined the ways in which NC scuba divers identify sustainable shipwreck diving activities to gain a better understanding of how their behavior impacts sustainable cultural tourism on the coast of North Carolina. ...
