Characterization of DNA and deoxyribonucleoside adducts formation by phenanthrene-9,10-oxide
Creators: name: Shim, Susan Anita
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The DNA adducts formed by phenanthrene-9,10-oxide (PhO) were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and monoclonal antibody based enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) techniques. Polydeoxyribonucleotides polydG-polydC and polydA-polydT, were analyzed for comparison. The isocratic methanol-water HPLC chromatograms of the adducts of PhO with each of the four deoxyribonucleosides produced very similar HPLC retention times. In contrast, the MeOH and water gradient HPLC chromatograms of the PhO + dN adducts showed reasonably distinctive retention times. The HPLC chromatograms of PhO + DNA showed that there were ten presumed DNA adducts formed by PhO; these adducts were separated by HPLC and collected manually. The values for the 50% antibody inhibition point (I$\sb{50}$) for seven of the ten presumed DNA adducts were approximated in a competitive ELISA. The ELISA results indicated that the antibodies raised against thiol adducts of PhO cross react with PhO-DNA adducts. (Abstract shortened with permission of author.).

description: Der Essay fragt nach der Rolle von Kausalität in der Physik. Zuerst schlage ich einen Ansatz vor, mit dem die zentralen Eigenschaften von Kausalität bestimmt werden können: nämlich durch Rückbezug auf induktive Methodik. Daraus ergibt sich eine Unterscheidung in zwei Kausalbegriffe, auf Grundlage von enumerativer und von eliminativer Induktion. Ersterer führt zur naiven Regularitätsauffassung mit den bekannten Problemen, während letzterer den meisten gängigen Intuitionen bezüglich Kausalität gerecht wird. Mit dem aus eliminativer Induktion abgeleiteten Kausalbegriff lässt sich schlussfolgern, dass vor allem die experimentelle Praxis in der Physik auf kausales Wissen abzielt, während Theorieentwicklung eine eher sprachliche, erfahrungsordnende Funktion hat.

description: This is an investigation of M. Dummett's claim that a theory of meaning based on verification conditions should lead to the abandonment of classical logic in favor of intuitionistic logic. I especially concentrate on his suggestion that, in order to give the meaning of negations and conditionals, we should also take on board falsification conditions. Taken seriously, however, this route takes us not to intuitionistic logic, but rather to one of the Nelson logics.
Isolation of a ribosome-inactivating protein from pearled barley and determination of its suitability for immunotoxin construction
Creators: name: Spryn, Lucinda Ann
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: A ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) was isolated from pearled barley by a modification of the procedures of Roberts and Selitrennikoff (Biochim. Biophys. Acta 696, 239 (1982). A single cation exchange high-performance liquid chromatography step (Polycat A, Poly LC, Columbia, MD) was substituted for the combination of conventional carboxymethyl-Sephadex followed by gel permeation chromatography. The toxin migrated as a single 30 kDa protein band on sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and was judged to be $>$99% homogeneous. The toxicity of the barley toxin approximated that of gelonin and ricin A-chain. For the purpose of evaluating the barley toxin for suitability in immunotoxin construction, the thiolated toxin was coupled to a murine anti-human transferrin receptor monoclonal antibody. The cytotoxicity of this conjugate was comparable to similarly constructed conjugates using ricin A-chain and gelonin as the toxic component. On the basis of these results plus its availability and low cost, it is concluded that barley toxin represents a promising alternative for use in immunotoxin construction.

Creators: name: Eigner, Corinna
Year: 2013

description: In dieser Arbeit wird das aktuelle österreichische Animationsfilmschaffen untersucht. Dabei werden Arbeiten aus den letzten fünf Jahren in Bezug auf Inhalt, Ästhetik und Technik analysiert. Zusätzlich werden die Filmschaffenden kurz vorgestellt. Da die meisten dieser Arbeiten im Zuge eines Animationsstudiums entstanden sind, gibt diese Arbeit außerdem einen groben Überblick über die Möglichkeiten Animation in Österreich zu studieren. Bei der Untersuchung der filmischen Arbeiten wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwiefern sich aktuelle Animationsfilme von ihren historischen Vorgängern unterscheiden und wie sich die Arbeitsweise im Laufe der Zeit verändert hat. Um die neuen Entwicklungen zu verdeutlichen, gibt es zu Beginn dieser Arbeit einen geschichtlichen Abriss, der das österreichische Animationsfilmschaffen der letzten hundert Jahre grob skizziert. Dabei wird immer wieder auf wichtige Stationen im internationalen Animationsfilmschaffen verwiesen, die Einfluss auf jenes in Österreich ausübten. Zum besseren Verständnis wird diesen beiden Teilen der Diplomarbeit ein Kapitel vorangestellt, das den Begriff ‚Animation’ erklärt, sowie die Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt, die diese ‚Filmgattung’ mit sich bringt. Des Weiteren werden unterschiedliche Animationstechniken erläutert, die für die beiden darauf folgenden Kapitel relevant sind.

description: In his Contributions to the Analysis of the Sensations (Mach 1885) the phenomenalist philosopher Ernst Mach confronts us with a difficulty: "If we regard the Ego as a real unity, we become involved in the following dilemma: either we must set over against the Ego a world of unknowable entities […] or we must regard the whole world, the Egos of other people included, as comprised in our own Ego." (Mach 1885: 21)In other words, if we start from a phenomenalist viewpoint, i.e., if we believe that the manifold of sensations we are confronted with is ontologically fundamental —as Mach clearly does: "For us, colors, sounds, spaces, times,… are the ultimate ele-ments" (Mach 1885: 23)—then we are in danger to end up in solipsism. Unless, that is, we assume that some underlying thing-in-itself substratum from which matter, we ourselves, and all the others emanate.The only other alter-native seems to be—and Mach advertises it vehemently for he denies any "mons-trous notion of a thing-in-itself" (Mach 1885: 6)1—that we get rid of the Ego. For, if there is no Self in the first place, then the question whether there are others dissolves. To put it the other way round, it is ok that the others do not exist because, really, I do not exist either. If the Ego is a Myth solipsism is not just wrong but nonsense.There are two questions this paper wishes to address: first, do we need independent additional support for the denial of the Self or is the avoidance of solipsism reason enough to assume the Ego’s non-existence? I will argue that we do need additional reasons and I will evaluate those that Mach indeed gives to prove that "the primary fact is not the I, the Ego, but the elements (sensations)" (Mach 1885: 19). Second, is the deconstruction of the I, even if further sufficient support can be found, really adequate to stop us from worrying about solipsism? The doubt I will put forward is that the illusion of a Self might conjure up enough of an Ego—just like feeling a pain is having a pain, even if it is located in a phantom limb—to start us wondering whether it also occurs elsewhere.

description: Reports of the increasing prevalence of eating disorders in Western, industrialized societies have recently led to investigations among non-European ethnic groups (e.g., Blacks, Asians) within such societies. Such studies have revealed a lower prevalence of disturbed eating habits and attitudes in these groups. The present study sought to extend such comparisons by including subjects who live in a society that may not predispose its members to developing pathological eating. A total of 310 participants from one of three groups were used: Greek women residing in Greece, Greek-American women, and American women with a Western-European background. Measures included dieting concern, binge-eating tendencies, and body image dissatisfaction. A final measure investigated cultural standards for ideal body size. Results suggested no differences among the groups in abnormal eating attitudes and behaviors, or in cultural ideals of body size.Chairperson: James Gray.

description: Das Web 2.0 und insbesondere die Sozialen Netzwerke stellen die moderne politische Kommunikation vor neue Chancen und Herausforderungen. Der Handlungsspielraum hat sich für politische AkteurInnen bei der Kommunikation im Internet deutlich erweitert. Die zentralen Merkmale des Web 2.0 - Interaktivität, Multimedialität, Dynamik und Aktualität – stellen Parteien vor neue vielfältige Möglichkeiten bei der politischen Kommunikation im Internet. Insbesondere die Responsivität zwischen Parteien und den potentiellen WählerInnen und eine ungefilterte und reichweitenstarke PR und Informationsvermittlung erweisen sich als zentrale Chancen bei der Kommunikation im Sozialen Netzwerk. Die vorliegende Magisterarbeit geht der Frage auf den Grund, wie und in welchem Maße die deutschen Parteien die Piratenpartei und Bündnis 90/Die Grünen das Soziale Netzwerk Facebook für ihre politische Kommunikation nutzen.

description: Data from the Stanford Heart Transplantation Study and our own study on brain tumor include time-dependent covariates like transplantation, which may switch only once, and others changing their value several times during follow-up. But classical analyses never used this additional information. In a comparative study we applied the time-dependent Cox model, pooled Cox regression and the linear counting process by Aalen to these data sets. All methods do show similar results when they are carried out in their 'fixed' version, i.e. using baseline information only, or when covariates are being treated as time-dependent. But the estimated effects do differ remarkably between fixed and time-dependent approaches, thus leading to different interpretations of risks.
A survey analysis of clinician attitude, knowledge, and potential bias toward Vietnam veteran patients and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Creators: name: Bauer, Martin Nicholas
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: A Washington, D.C. area sample (N = 453, 21% response rate) of mental health clinicians responded to a survey on Vietnam veterans and PTSD. Although the three clinician groups (psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers) differed in their attitudes about the war and its veterans, most clinicians surveyed (across the three groups) held well-established beliefs that were resistant to biasing through exposure to simple statements of stereotypical views on this subject. The clinicians in this sample were relatively well-informed and, for the most part, did not endorse formerly prevalent unfavorable stereotypes about the Vietnam veteran. However, beliefs tended to cluster based on individual experience, clinical interest in this population, and emotional investment in particular viewpoints. The clinicians overall supported community-based Vietnam veteran outreach services and saw the need for further research and professional training to work with Vietnam veterans and other potential sufferers of PTSD.

description: We propose a new method for estimation of unknown functions within the generalized linear model framework. The estimator leads to an adaptive economical description of the results in terms of basis functions. Our proposal extends the soft--thresholding strategy from ordinary wavelet regression to generalized linear models and multiple predictor variables. Several sets of basis functions, tailored to specific purposes, can be incorporated into our methodology. We discuss semiparametric statistical inference based on generalized soft--thresholding. An algorithm which produces a sequence of estimates corresponding to increasing model complexity is developed. Advantages of our approach are demonstrated by an application to German labour market data.

description: This study attempted to assess the impact of popular women's magazine and textbook presentations of bulimia nervosa on women's attitudes towards individuals with bulimia nervosa and towards bulimia nervosa. One hundred women read articles from popular women's magazines, one hundred read textbook chapters, and one hundred read articles unrelated to bulimia nervosa. The attitude toward individuals with bulimia nervosa was significantly lower for the textbook group than for the other two groups, but no significant differences were found between the magazine and control groups. It was suggested that the magazine and control groups did not differ significantly because the subjects had previously read an average of eight articles on bulimia nervosa, most likely from mass media sources, and thus the magazine articles simply confirmed their prior attitudes. Suggestions for changing the stereotypical portrayal in the media of women with bulimia nervosa were made.

description: The assembly of the classical, polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I moleculesin the endoplasmic reticulum requires the presence of peptide ligands and ~2-microglobulin(~2m). Formation of this trimolecular complex is a prerequisite for e~cient transport to thecell surface, where presented peptides are scanned by T lymphocytes. The function of the otherclass I molecules is in dispute. The human, nonclassical class I gene, HLA-E, was found to beubiquitously transcribed, whereas cell surface expression was dif~cult to detect upon transfection.Pulse chase experiments revealed that the HLA-E heavy chain in transfectants, obtained withthe murine myeloma cell line P3X63-Ag8.653 (X63), displays a significant reduction inoligosaccharide maturation and intracellular transport compared with HLA-B27 in correspondingtransfectants. The accordingly low HLA-E cell surface expression could be significantly enhancedby either reducing the culture temperature or by supplementing the medium with human ~2m,suggesting inefficient binding of endogenous peptides to HLA-E. To analyze whether HLA-Ebinds peptides and to identify the corresponding ligands, fractions of acid-extracted material fromHLA-E/X63 transfectants were separated by reverse phase HPLC and were tested for their abilityto enhance HLA-E cell surface expression. Two fractions specifically increased the HLA classI expression on the HLA-E transfectant clone.

"Grandeur barren": The inner and outer world of Gerard Manley Hopkins
Creators: name: Bess, Jennifer
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Many of Gerard Manley Hopkins' early poems praise God's presence in nature and suggest that Hopkins desires His presence in himself. The poet, however, also writes poems that express his inability to feel God's love and to reflect the Christ-like virtues he sees in nature and heroic figures. Looking at Hopkins' prose, biographical accounts and poetry, together, enables the reader to identify a pattern in the poet's artistic duality. When Hopkins feels optimistic that he will become Christ-like through his ecclesiastical career, he praises God's manifestations; however, when he feels he is not reflecting the Christian ideal, he reveals his feelings of inadequacy. The reader concludes that Hopkins views his life from a critical perspective, so that the poet's opinions concerning himself and his environment depend on how he feels about his ability to be saintly. Both his prose and poetry change focus with his emotions.

The effects of learned helplessness induction on self esteem and cognitive/motivational deficits were also examined. Generally, females reported more depression than males after learned helplessness induction regardless of social problem solving ability. Effective social problem solving ability was associated with less depression only for males after learned helplessness induction. Female ineffective social problem solvers displayed the most deficits in cognitive motivational/functioning after learned helplessness induction. Self esteem was positively correlated with depression, problem solving confidence and personal control, but was not affected by subject sex or training.

description: Reservoir fluids are considered to be in a state of equilibrium before the
start of production. In some cases the gravitational forces are considerable with
respect to the equilibrium compositions with depth. Thick reservoirs with
volatile oil and significant vertical permeability are especially prone to
component segregation with depth, even if no phase change is observed. Such compositional variations can lead to considerable errors in the estimation of the quantity of oil initially in place, as well as to non-optimum exploitation
methods.
After thorough research of the existing literature, simulation software in the
MATLAB® computing environment was developed for the estimation of
equilibrium compositions with depth in gravitational oilfields. The software
used a cubic EOS coupled with an isothermal GCE algorithm to simulate the
case of a Greek oilfield reservoir located in the Mediterranean Sea. An EOS fluid
characterization was developed by tuning the EOS to match measured data
from conventional PVT experiments. The simulation results were compared
with the ones derived from commercial PVT software. The comparison
indicated that the developed software can accurately predict variations in
pressure and fluid composition along the depth of the reservoir.
description: Τα πετρελαϊκά ρευστά πριν την έναρξη της παραγωγικής εκμετάλευσης του
ταμιευτήρα θεωρούνται πως βρίσκονται σε κατάσταση ισορροπίας μεταξύ της
βαρύτητας και της διάχυσης των συστατικών στο χώρο. Σε ταμιευτήρες με μη
αμελητέα διαπερατότητα ως προς την κατακόρυφο, συχνά παρατηρούνται
διαφοροποιήσεις της σύστασης τους λόγω βαρύτητας, παρόλο που τα ρευστά
παραμένουν μονοφασικά. Τέτοιου είδους διαφοροποιήσεις της σύστασης
μπορούν να επιφέρουν σημαντικά λάθη στην εκτίμηση των διαθέσιμων
αποθεμάτων του κοιτάσματος καθώς και λάθη στην επιλογή των καταλλήλων
μεθόδων εκμετάλλευσης.
Μετά από πλήρη βιβλιογραφική ανασκόπηση επί του θέματος, αναπτύχθηκε
ένα υπολογιστικό πρότυπο σε περιβάλλον MATLAB® για την πρόβλεψη των
μεταβολών στη σύσταση και πίεση διαφόρων ταμιευτήρων με το βάθος. Το
πρότυπο βασίζεται σε μια κυβική καταστατική εξίσωση σε συνδυασμό με έναν
αλγόριθμο για την περιγραφή της θερμοδυναμικής και βαρυτικής ισορροπίας, με
σκοπό την προσομοίωση ενός υπεράκτιου πετρελαϊκού κοιτάσματος στην
περιοχή της Μεσογείου. Το υπολογιστικό πρότυπο αναπτύχθηκε “ρυθμίζοντας”
την κυβική καταστατική εξίσωση επάνω σε πειραματικά δεδομένα από
συμβατικά εργαστηριακά πειράματα. Πραγματοποιήθηκε σύγκριση μεταξύ των
αποτελεσμάτων του αναπτυχθέντος λογισμικού και εκείνων που προέκυψαν με
χρήση εμπορικού λογισμικού. Η σύγκριση απέδειξε οτι το αναπτυχθέν λογισμικό
δύναται να προβλέψει με ακρίβεια τις πιέσεις αλλά και τις συστάσεις του
ρευστού καθ’ όλο το πάχος του ταμιευτήρα.

Metal ion chromatography using mobile phases containing 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid
Creators: name: Eckel, William
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The compound 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid (HQS) is added to the mobile phase as a complexing and ultraviolet detection reagent in metal ion chromatography. The optimum detection wavelength is 362 nanometers. The chromatography is complicated by formation of both neutral and anionic metal-HQS complexes for metals with large complexation constants, resulting in broad or multiple peaks using certain mobile phase formulations. The sample injection causes a peak by disturbing the adsorption equilibrium of HQS on the column. The effect of HQS and potassium nitrate concentration and flow rate on retention times and chromatographic efficiency is explored. Injection of more than one metal resulted in increased retention times, presumably due to competition for a fixed concentration of HQS in the mobile phase, and slower mass transfer out of the stationary phase.Chairman: James E. Girard.

description: The exercise briefly describes observations of the sociopolitical realities of developed western countries made by authors whose common trait lies in their attempt to point out current trends which markedly distinguish today from yesterday. Such perceptions--cautiously labeled "visions of post-modernity"--are considered under three main categories: death of ideologies, new political praxis, and crisis of the state. The general overview of the Brazilian political scene--now very active after twenty-one years of authoritarian military rule--follows the same structure in dealing with the local manifestations of those perceived contemporary tendencies. Facts and numerous works by specialized social scientists indicate that rather than mere visions, such tendencies are clearly present in that country, either in concrete forms of political engagement, or as models inspiring relevant positions and proposals. This study intends to demonstrate that a complete analysis of politics in Brazil must, therefore, include the examination of these "post-modern" trends.

WAIS-R patterns in schizophrenia
Creators: name: Goldberg, Elaine Sue
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: While there have been many investigations of patterns of intellectual deficits in schizophrenia as measured by the Wechsler-Bellevue and the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, few have been conducted using the more current Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R). In addition, earlier studies did not employ standardized diagnostic criteria in their subject selection. The present study examined WAIS-R performances of 76 DSM III-diagnosed chronic schizophrenic patients using both univariate and multivariate procedures. The results showed that Verbal IQ was significantly higher than Performance IQ. The variability in Verbal IQ among the schizophrenic range was within the expected range for the normal population, whereas the Performance IQ scores were uniformly lower in the schizophrenic patients than those of the age-matched standardization group. No strong correlations or clusters were found between psychiatric symptom ratings, demographic variables, handedness, or DSM III subtype of schizophrenia. Prospective studies of children at high risk for developing schizophrenia are needed to determine whether this pattern predates the onset of the illness or reflects differential deficits which result from schizophrenia.
