Erin Madden, Senior Capstone Seminar There is a discrepancy in the literature whether porous carbon electrodes store more electrochemical capacitance with a disordered or an ordered pore design.
cells. Characterization of the nanoparticles was performed using FT-IR, XRD, TEM and DLS, and cell targeting was observed using Prussian blue staining and MRI in mice. The modified nanoparticles were found to decrease cytotoxicity and macrophage cell capture and increase colloidal stability and hydrophilic properties in mice suggesting beneficial use in specific tumor targeting. 4:00 pm - Synthesis and Reactivity of 2-ethenyl-2-cyclohexenolEmily Tollefson, Senior Capstone Seminar It is proposed that

Sukhbir Randhawa, Senior Capstone Seminar Many different factors cause DNA damage in cells. UV radiation is one of the major factors; if a cell's DNA repair system does not keep repairing the
applications. Molecules called ligands bind to the surface of nanocrystals during their synthesis. Previous studies have demonstrated that these ligands can be exchanged, resulting in an alteration of nanocrystal characteristics—one of which being photoluminescence (PL) intensity. We synthesized both colloidal CdSe nanocrystals and nanobelts then exchanged their surface ligands with pyridine and dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). This enabled us to look at whether ligands have similar effects on nanocrystal PL

an increase in reactive oxygen species. This observation correlates with the experimental determination that when cells lack the ability to repair certain types of oxidative damage as a result of gene knockout, we see an increase in replicative mutation rates and adaptive mutation frequencies when compared to the wild type cell line. 2:55 pm - Synthesis of a 2,5-Disubsituted Tetrazole for Bioorthogonal Terpene Detection via Photoclick Chemistry Angelina Gladchuk, Senior Capstone Seminar
