Enzymatic determination of itoic acid, a Bacillus subtilis siderophore, and 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid.
(East Carolina University, 1993-07)A specific enzymatic method to determine the amounts of itoic acid, a Bacillus subtilis siderophore, and 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,3-DHBA) was devised. A sample was incubated first with hippurate hydrolase andthenwith ... -
Epigenetic Effect of Modified Diet and Exercise on Drosophila Metabolic Phenotype and Cardiovascular Health
(2015-04)Obesity is a growing world-wide epidemic. Overweight populations are prone to a variety of morbid conditions including diabetes type 2, cardiovascular diseases, and cancers. The catastrophic increase in obesity rates, which ... -
ESTABLISHING LINKAGE BETWEEN GINS COMPLEX SUB-UNIT Sld5 AND CHECKPOINT PROTEIN Chk2 (loki) USING DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER AS MODEL ORGANISM
(East Carolina University, 2012)Eukaryotic DNA replication is controlled by a number of proteins that ensures the process takes place accurately. GINS, a hetero-tetrameric protein complex is known to be essential for the initiation and progression of ... -
Evaluating Land Use Effects On The Stinging Sea Nettle : Chrysaora Quinquecirrha: Are Shoreline Hardening Structures Creating New Habitat For A Nuisance Species?
(East Carolina University, 2015)There is considerable debate as to whether global jellyfish populations are experiencing an overall population growth due to human activities or have been pulsing in a long-term natural rhythm. Empirical data to support ... -
Evaluating Spatial and Temporal Overlap Between Larval Alosines and Potential Zooplankton Prey in Lower Roanoke River and Albemarle Sound, North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2011)Spatial and temporal overlap between zooplankton and larval American shad (Alosa sapidissima), river herring (alewife A. pseudoharengus and blueback herring A. aestivalis), and hickory shad (A. mediocris) was evaluated in ... -
Evaluating The Essential Functions Of The Replication Factor Mcm10 In Drosophila Melanogaster
(East Carolina University, 2015)Often referred to as miraculous, life as we know depends not upon miracles but on a series of highly orchestrated and regulated biochemical processes collectively known as the cell cycle. It is through these series of ...
