description: Tyrosinase is a multi-copper enzyme found in plants, animals and microorganisms, plays a critical role in the melanogenesis and browning process critical to cosmetics and food industries. Many natural, semi-synthetic and synthetic inhibitors have been discovered. To this end, a small library of symmetrical Bis-Azo-Azamethine hybrids 5a–j was synthesized and characterized through spectroscopic and analytical data and explored for mushroom tyrosinase and free radical scavenging activity. All of the molecules 5a–j explicated better potential compared to the standard Kojic acid. On the whole, compound 5i having IC50 value 0.002 ± 0.004 µM was found to be the most potent derivative. The Kinetic studies were performed for 5i and indicating the mode of inhibition in a competitive manner. Structure Activity Relationship (SAR) analysis and docking studies were carried out. Thus compound 5i bearing bulky naphthyl groups was most potent and, The molecular docking indicated formation of two hydrogen bonds with Arg268 and one hydrophobic interaction with Glu322. The carbonyl oxygen of 5i interacts with Arg268 and form two hydrogen bonds having lengths 2.44 and 2.62 Å, respectively. In the same way, compounds 5a–j were appraised for DPPH free radical scavenging ability and five of them 5d, 5e, 5h, 5i and 5j were found to exhibit higher % scavenging potency compared with vitamin C, as the standard. Interesting compound 5i was again the most potent in the series. The current investigation points towards the role of naphthyl group in design of new inhibitors of melanogenesis and the antioxidants with improved efficacy. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
Applications of Multilayer Hypernetworks in the Context of EEG

description: This project aims to develop and apply multilayer hypernetworks as a tool for analysis of electroencephalography data (EEG). The approach of network connectivity for neuroscience has pushed the computational sphere forward and multilayer networks can extend this approach to work through time. EEG data was collected from participants during two cognitive tasks (updating and inhibition) embedded with stimuli of different valences (positive, negative, and neutral). The EEG signal was decomposed into the time-frequency domain to focus on alpha (8-12Hz) and theta (4-8Hz) frequency bands. Within-band phase lock values (PLVs) between electrodes (nodes) and a probabilistic analysis was done to determine if high PLVs repeated in certain times or conditions. The results showed that conditional probability is statistically significant between all valence groups in alpha and two valence groups in theta. This suggests that the role of alpha is broader in the context of emotional information in the task. Further research is required to see if these findings extend to power and other metrics. A conditional probabilistic approach was shown to have a lot of potential for further insight into network connectivity. Specifically, hypernetworks can contain this information and be predictive of neural activity across timepoints.

“Landing on the moon:”  The African American Students Foundation Exchange Program, 1959-61

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2024

description: In early September of 1960, Wangari Maathai, who would later become a renowned Kenyan environmental activist and the first African woman to win a Nobel Peace Prize, described arriving to New York City as “landing on the Moon.” Maathai arrived in NYC apart of the African American Students Foundation (AASF) exchange program. The AASF was founded in 1959 and was the result of a partnership between moderate Kenyan labor politician, Tom Mboya and American businessman, William Scheinman. The AASF sought to address the lack of higher education in Kenya while also preparing a bureaucratic class for independence. The program initially financed itself through a vast mailing campaign, spearheaded by civil rights leaders such as Jackie Robinson, Harry Belafonte, and Sidney Poitier. The program was created and sustained through the work of a plethora of different actors, especially the students themselves. In 1960, as the U.S. presidential election loomed, the AASF somehow found itself caught in the middle of both candidates.

description: In silico studies are attracting considerable interest due to their ability to understand protein–ligand interactions at the atomic level. The main principal tools of this in silico analyses are molecular docking and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation. This paper examines how can natural compounds that are derived from Salviae miltiorrhizae to block Neisseria adhesion A Regulatory protein (NadR). In molecular docking analysis, only four compounds were found in higher binding affinity with NadR among 10 candidates (tanshinol B, tanshinol A, lithospermic acid and tournefolal were −7.61, −7.56, −8.22 and −7.81 kcal/mol, respectively, compared to −7.23 kcal/mol of native ligand). Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion (ADME) and toxicity properties, medicinal chemistry profile, and physicochemical features were displayed that tournefolal contains good properties to work as a safe and good anti-adhesive drug. Therefore, the complexes of these four ligands with NadR protein were subjected to 100 ns of MD simulation. RMSD, RMSF, RG and hydrogen bonding exhibited that tournefolal showed stable binding affinity and molecular interaction with NadR protein. In light of these results, there is now a need to conduct much more in vitro and in vivo studies about the efficacy of tournefolal. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: Here, we report on a computational comparison of the receptor-binding domains (RBDs) on the spike proteins of severe respiratory syndrome coronavirus‐2 (SARS-CoV-2) and SARS-CoV in free forms and as complexes with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as their receptor in humans. The impact of 42 mutations discovered so far on the structure and thermodynamics of SARS-CoV-2 RBD was also assessed. The binding affinity of SARS-CoV-2 RBD for ACE2 is higher than that of SARS-CoV RBD. The binding of COVA2-04 antibody to SARS-CoV-2 RBD is more energetically favorable than the binding of COVA2-39, but also less favorable than the formation of SARS-CoV-2 RBD-ACE2 complex. The net charge, the dipole moment and hydrophilicity of SARS-CoV-2 RBD are higher than those of SARS-CoV RBD, producing lower solvation and surface free energies and thus lower stability. The structure of SARS-CoV-2 RBD is also more flexible and more open, with a larger solvent-accessible surface area than that of SARS-CoV RBD. Single-point mutations have a dramatic effect on distribution of charges, most prominently at the site of substitution and its immediate vicinity. These charge alterations alter the free energy landscape, while X→F mutations exhibit a stabilizing effect on the RBD structure through π stacking. F456 and W436 emerge as two key residues governing the stability and affinity of the spike protein for its ACE2 receptor. These analyses of the structural differences and the impact of mutations on different viral strains and members of the coronavirus genera are an essential aid in the development of effective therapeutic strategies.

Evaluating the Ability of Choline Supplementation to Prevent Learning and Neurochemistry Deficits Following Adolescent Intermittent Ethanol Exposure
Creators: name: Lester, Brooke A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2024

description: Exposure to high intermittent levels of alcohol during adolescence results in cognitive and 
neurochemical deficits that persist into adulthood. Notably, adolescent intermittent ethanol (AIE) 
exposure in rodents results in impairments in behavioral flexibility and reversal learning. AIE 
exposure also results in reduced expression of cholinergic markers such as choline 
acetyltransferase (ChAT). ChAT converts available intracellular choline and acetyl coenzyme A 
to acetylcholine, the major neurotransmitter of the cholinergic system that modulates input to 
regions of the brain that are critical for behavioral flexibility, such as the prefrontal cortex. A 
promising intervention for the cognitive deficits associated with alcohol exposure is dietary 
choline supplementation, which has been shown to be able to protect from and rescue deficits 
resulting from prenatal ethanol exposure. The ability of choline to protect from AIE exposure has 
not been explored. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that choline supplementation, 
when administered concurrently with AIE exposure, can protect from behavioral and 
neurochemical deficits, and more specifically, reversal learning impairments and reductions in 
ChAT expression. Male and female Sprague-Dawley rats received either AIE exposure or water 
(control). Concurrent to this exposure, rats received either choline dissolved in sweetened 
condensed milk, pure sweetened condensed milk, or no treatment (treatment-naïve).  Behavioral 
flexibility and reversal learning were assessed with an attentional set-shifting task. ChAT 
expression in the basal forebrain was assessed with immunohistochemistry. Regardless of 
exposure group, choline and milk groups exhibited improved behavioral flexibility, indicating 
that sweetened condensed milk supplementation is sufficient to improve reversal learning. 
Additionally, this study found that without AIE-induced changes in ChAT expression, there are 
no reductions in reversal learning, indicating that AIE-induced changes in ChAT expression may 
be necessary for previously observed reductions in reversal learning. Finally, this work 
demonstrates that without the presence of AIE-induced alterations in ChAT+ cell expression, 
concurrent choline supplementation does not improve reversal learning performance, indicating 
that the protective abilities of choline supplementation are dependent on the existence of 
reductions in ChAT+ expression.

Clustering in Monitored Hands-on Exercises to Find Common Paths and Outliers
Creators: name: Zhou, Zeqi
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2024

description: Interest in computer science has been growing, leading to increased enrollment in computer science courses. Hands-on coding exercises are a key component of these courses, allowing instructors to evaluate student understanding and track progress. Code clustering is an effective method for grading, providing collective feedback, and identifying common errors or unique solutions. Despite its benefits, existing research on code clustering lacks quantitive evaluations of clustering methods and outlier detection. Our study assesses the accuracy and performance of three clustering methods and ChatGPT-4 using a newly created labeled dataset. In addition, we propose a new outlier detection algorithm, Weight-based Agglomerative Clustering (WAC), designed to identify unique or erroneous code solutions. We compared our algorithm's accuracy and performance with existing outlier detection methods. Our results demonstrate a clearer understanding of the effectiveness of the evaluated clustering methods. Moreover, the evaluation result shows that our outlier detection algorithm outperforms existing methods.

description: In this work, Combining coumarin and thiazole with 3-tertiary butyl salicylaldehyde into in a single molecule, new Schiff base (CTS), and its metal complexes with palladium and platinum were synthesized and characterized by using well-known spectroscopic techniques such as 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, FT-IR and LC-MS. And also, the formation of these complexes were confirmed by magnetic moment and conductivity measurements. The photophysical properties of CTS were studied and it was observed that the Schiff base has a sensitivity to CN−, F−, and AcO− anions. The quantum chemical calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) were done for explaining some experimental, structural, and spectroscopic data of the dyes. Also, to evaluate the binding interactions between the ligand (CTS) and its metal complexes and enzymes, molecular docking studies were performed and all the compounds tested to determine its inhibition potential against the cholinesterase (AChE and BChE) and pancreatic cholesterol esterase (CEase) enzymes. Both in vitro and in silico the results showed that all of the compounds could act as potent inhibitors of AChE, BChE, and CEase. The Pt (II) complex showed the most potent inhibitory property against all of the enzymes with IC50 values of 12 µM for AChE, 23 µM for BChE, and 21 µM for CEase. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: Supercapacitors (or electric double-layer capacitors) are high power energy storage devices that store charge by the non-faradaic adsorption of ions at the interface between porous carbon electrodes and an electrolyte solution. The development of new electrode materials and electrolytes with improved performances is an active area of research today, yet there are relatively few studies of the molecular mechanisms of the charge storage process. In this work, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is developed for the study of the charge storage mechanisms of supercapacitors. Importantly, NMR experiments show that electrolyte ions adsorbed inside the pores of the carbon electrodes can be resolved from those in bulk electrolyte for a range of supercapacitor electrode materials. Chemical shift calculations show that the adsorbed species are subject to ring current effects, whereby the delocalised electrons in the carbon shield the nearby nuclei. The calculated effects depend on the local carbon structure, helping to rationalise the variations observed when different porous carbons are studied experimentally, and allowing structural information to be extracted from the spectra. NMR experiments performed on electrodes extracted from ionic liquid-based supercapacitors with different applied voltages allow the numbers of adsorbed ions to be measured upon charging. It is shown that supercapacitor charging involves the migration of both anions and cations in and out of the carbon pores in each electrode, with the anions dominating the charge storage process. When combined with lineshape measurements, which offer information about the diffusion of adsorbed ions, the power performances of supercapacitor devices with different electrolytes are rationalised. In situ NMR methods are then developed to allow mechanistic studies of working supercapacitors as they are charged and discharged inside the NMR magnet. The experiments reveal that the charge storage mechanism depends on both the electrolyte and the electrode material studied. During charging, reversible chemical shift changes are also observed, arising from the introduction of paratropic ring currents. Finally, cross polarisation experiments allow the selective observation of the adsorbed electrolyte species, and show that their motion slows down during supercapacitor charging. Overall, the NMR approach offers unique insights into the molecular mechanisms of the supercapacitance phenomenon.

description: 'Making' in STEM education promotes project-based learning and engineering design, encourages creativity, and, in some cases, can increase the engagement of marginalized students. Our research examines the legitimacy of using 'making' to engage traditionally marginalized students using survey data indicating student excitement for and experience with 'making' prior to participation in a making-based project in introductory geoscience. Student status as Pell Grant recipients, first-generation college students, and/or transfer students were used as proxies to categorize at-risk and/or marginalized students. Data from a survey conducted by Plenge et al. 2021 was used to compare the experience and excitement of students within these groups (n=265) with non-marginalized students (n=536). Statistical analyses were conducted using JASP and Excel to differentiate between attribute groups and the non-attribute student population. The participants' demographics in this project represented the incoming student body population, indicating generalizability. Preliminary findings demonstrate that transfer students consistently reported higher experience scores when compared to the other attribute groups and the non-attribute population. Transfer students had significantly more experience with "taking something apart to see how it works" than non-attribute students, with an effect size of .73. Other findings suggest variability in 'making' experience in other attribute groups compared to the non-attribute population. Our interpretation of the observed variation in 'making' experiences in these attribute groups is informed by a theoretical framework categorizing all 'making' into necessity, creative, and academic types. We infer that higher experience scores reported by transfer students are illustrative of the diverse lived experiences of students with additional barriers that shape their interest in, experience with, and perceptions towards making. This research aims to contribute to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) discourse in geoscience education by connecting academic making with student experiences and excitement.

title: Familienleben auf Briefpapier
Creators: name: Friedl, Walpurga Elisabeth
Year: 2021

description: In dieser Diplomarbeit werden 148 Familienbriefe der 1938 vom NS-Regime in die USA vertriebenen Kunsthistoriker/innen Hans Tietze und Erika Tietze-Conrat aus dem Zeitraum 1936–1958 hinsichtlich familialer Herstellungsleistungen (Doing Family) ausgewertet. Doing Family ist ein praxeologisches Familienkonzept, das noch nicht auf Briefstudien angewendet wurde. Nach einer theoretischen Heranführung an die Themen Exil, Doing Family, (transnationales) Familienleben sowie Briefe als Kommunikationsmedium und Quelle werden die verschiedenen Stationen des Lebens in den USA aufgezeigt. Anschließend werden die Briefe anhand der von David A. Gerber aufgezeigten für Briefkontakte notwendigen Verhandlungsebenen auf Kommunikationspraktiken untersucht. In der Analyse der familialen Herstellungsleistungen werden einerseits transnationale generationenübergreifende Fürsorgeleistungen wie Geld- und Warensendungen sowie die Einbindung ‚familienfremder‘ Personen ins Familienleben aufgezeigt. Die Arbeit beweist, dass nicht verwandte oder nicht rechtlich (bspw. durch Adoption oder Ehe) an die Familie gebundene Personen durch die Übernahme von Care Teil einer Familie werden können und Familienbindungen nicht nur aufgrund von Verwandtschaft entstehen können.
description: In this diploma thesis, 148 family letters written between 1936 and 1958 by the 1938 exiled art historians Hans Tietze and Erika Tietze-Conrat are analyzed in regard of family practices (Doing Family). Doing Family is a praxeological family concept that has not been applied to letter studies yet. Following a theoretical introduction to the topics exile, Doing Family, (transnational) family life and letters as communication medium and source, different stages of life in the USA are identified. Subsequent, the letters are examined for communication practices on the basis of negotiations in letter contacts, as identified by David A. Gerber. In the analyses of family making practices, on the one hand, transnational, cross-generational care-activities, such as sending goods and money, are shown. On the other hand, the integration of ‘non-family-members’ in the family life is shown. This academic work proves that unrelated persons or persons not legally bound to the family (e. g., through adoption or marriage) can become part of a family by taking on care. It also shows that family ties can not only arise on the basis of kindships.

Identifying Correlates of Food Waste and Barriers to Food Waste Reduction Across the Socioecological Framework
Creators: name: Vandersip, Sara

description: Objectives:
Food waste is a critical problem to address for planetary and human health. Young adults are a key demographic to target with food waste interventions, given that young adulthood is when many people adopt shopping and cooking behaviors. The objective of this study was to evaluate self-reported food waste and barriers to reducing food waste among young adults. 

Design:
We conducted an online survey with a convenience sample of young adults ages 18-25 years (n=2,132). We examined the prevalence of self-reported food waste and food waste-related behaviors, perceptions, intentions, and barriers. We used logistic regression to evaluate the relationship between socio-demographic characteristics and self-reported food waste and to perceived difficulty reducing food waste.

Results:
The majority (65%) of respondents reported wasting 10-20% of their personal food. Most (77%) participants reported they were concerned with food waste, but only 45% of participants reported they were likely to reduce their food waste in the next 30 days. Key barriers to reducing food waste included not having a way to save food for later (26.4%), not being motivated to avoid throwing away food (18.2%), not knowing how to avoid throwing away food (16.7%), and not having enough community resources to repurpose food (15.6%). With regard to socio-demographic correlates, a higher percentage of non-Hispanic Black participants report wasting significantly more food than Non-Hispanic White participants (14 percentage points, 95% CI = 8%, 20%), and a lower percentage of participants who reported meeting their financial needs but having little left over perceived wasting significantly less food compared to those in a comfortable financial situation (7 percentage points, 95% CI = -12%, -2%).

Conclusion:
Most young adults perceive they waste just 10-20% of their food, substantially less than what is wasted in the average US household, yet most also report facing barriers to reducing food waste. Improvements to young adult education, behavior, and community resources are needed to reduce food waste in the US and foster behavior change.

title: Die kleinpolnischen Dialekte in regionalen Erzählungen und Liedern aus dem 19. und 20. Jahrhundert im Vergleich
Creators: name: Nemeth, Dominica
Year: 2021

description: Der kleinpolnische Dialekt ist einer von sieben Dialekten der polnischen Sprache. Er ist, im Gegensatz zu anderen polnischen Dialekten, in viele unterschiedliche regionale Kulturen und Mundarten unterteilt. Das Ziel dieser Masterarbeit ist es, die regionalen Mundarten Kleinpolens zu erforschen und sie miteinander zu vergleichen. Analysiert wird anhand von regionalen Erzählungen sowie Volksliedern, die eine ähnliche Thematik haben. Im theoretischen Teil werden die wichtigsten dialektalen Merkmale präsentiert und anhand kurzer Textausschnitte dargelegt. Im praktischen Teil werden drei Erzählungen und zwei Lieder aus sechs verschiedenen Regionen auf dialektale Eigenheiten geprüft und anschließend miteinander verglichen. Dabei soll erforscht werden, inwieweit der kleinpolnische Dialekt in den Texten verankert ist und welche Rolle die Textsorte sowie das Motiv spielen.

title: Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Rechtsextremismusprävention im Politischen Bildungsunterricht
Creators: name: Mayrhofer, Marie Antonia
Year: 2021

description: Rechtsextremismus unter Jugendlichen ist in der österreichischen Gesellschaft ein ernstzunehmendes Problem. Dadurch sind insbesondere Lehrerinnen und Lehrer der politischen Bildung gefordert nicht nur mit rechts(extrem) orientierten Jugendlichen umgehen zu lernen, vielmehr tragen sie auch die Aufgabe, ihre Schülerinnen und Schüler vor rechtsextremen Orientierungen, Strukturen und Einflüssen zu bewahren. Um Rechtsextremismusprävention im Unterricht erfolgreich einbauen zu können, sind neben einem hohen Fachwissen, vor allem auch hohe pädagogische und didaktische Fähigkeiten erforderlich. Dabei sind die Lehrkräfte in der Praxis jedoch mit vielfältigen inhaltlichen und strukturellen Hindernissen konfrontiert, die sich dem Einflussbereich der einzelnen Lehrperson entziehen. Diese Arbeit zielt darauf ab, die Möglichkeiten aber auch die Grenzen der Rechtsextremismusprävention im Rahmen der politischen Bildung in Österreich zu untersuchen. Ein qualitatives Interview mit einer praktizierenden Lehrperson gibt Aufschluss darüber, wie Lehrerinnen und Lehrer Rechtsextremismusprävention in den Unterricht der politischen Bildung integrieren können und mit welchen Grenzen sie dabei konfrontiert werden können. Sie soll mögliche Wege, wie mit manchen von ihnen umgegangen werden kann aufzeigen und gesellschaftlichen, sowie politischen Handlungsbedarf aufzeigen.
description: As right-wing extremism among young people is a problem taken to be seriously in Austrian society, teachers of political education in particular are thus not only challenged with being confronted with right-wing (extremist) oriented young people. Instead, they also carry the task of preventing (all of) their students of right-wing extremist orientations, structures and influences. In order to successfully integrate right-wing extremism prevention in the classroom, a high level of pedagogical and didactic skills is required in addition to a high level of expertise. Still, in practice teachers are often confronted with a variety of obstacles in terms of content and structure that are beyond the influence of the individual teacher. This research aims to examine the possibilities, as well as the limits of right-wing extremism prevention in the context of political education in Austria. A qualitative interview with a practising teacher sheds light on how teachers can integrate right-wing extremism prevention into the political education classroom and what hurdles they may face in doing so. It is intended to show possible ways of dealing with some of them and to point out the need for social and political action. The results of the interview are embedded in current scientific right-wing extremism theory.
