Organization (WEDO). Dr. Shiva has also initiated Diverse Women for Diversity, an international movement of women working for food and agriculture. Internationally, Dr. Shiva serves on Prince Charles’s expert group on Sustainable Agriculture and was a member of President Zapatero’s Scientific Committee in Spain. Dr. Shiva advises governments worldwide, and is currently working with the Government of Bhutan to make Bhutan 100% organic. She is also working with the Governments of Tuscany and Rome to create a

8 – Oct 6: PLU Faculty Show Oct 13 – Nov 10: University of Puget Sound Printmaker Janet Marcavage’s new work uses patterned imagery and the repetitive process of printmaking to explore the routines and surroundings of everyday life. Nov 17 – Dec 15: Juried Student Exhibition Feb 9 – Mar 9: Ceramicist and PLU alumna Heather Cornelius juxtaposes the human figure with other organic forms, drawing out truths about the feminine condition and human life in general. Mar 16 – Apr 13: Tacoma sculptor

of hazardous wastes, most hazardous materials cannot be held longer than 180 days in the storage areas. Acutely hazardous wastes in excess of the QEL of 2.2 lb. can be held only 90 days. 4. Containers Each hazardous waste must be stored in containers appropriate for that material. Specific categories of organic solvent wastes can be combined into a common collection vessel. Chemically compatible solvents can be accumulated into the same container. Common, compatible solvents from the maintenance

citrate-reduced and thiosulfate-reduced gold nanoparticles, and commercially produced gold nanoparticles were also tested as possible MALDI-TOF MS matrices for the detection of small molecules. Organic dyes, including rhodamine 6G (MW = 444 Da), crystal violet (MW = 372 Da), and cresyl violet (MW = 321 Da), were used as analytes because of their propensity to adsorb onto the gold nanoparticles. Rhodamine 6G with 5nm in diameter commercially available gold nanoparticles gave the best signal intensity

reactions Faculty mentor: Neal Yakelis, Chemistry Diels-Alder reactions are common reactions used in organic synthesis. However, they often require harsh reaction conditions or expensive and hazardous metal catalysts. Recent works have shown that photocatalysts can allow Diels-Alder reactions to be run at room temperature by irradiating the reaction vessel with blue LED light, producing high yields. Fluorenone is one such catalyst that has been investigated in recent literature. Our work seeks to

Jaynne Boand Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Washington Newborn screening for lysosomal storage diseases can catch the diseases early in life when treatment options work best. We have developed novel chemistries and assays for newborn screening of lysosomal storage diseases. The assays are used worldwide in newborn screening labs. The assays make use of synthetic organic chemistry to design reagents, and tandem mass spectrometry for assay readout. The talk will go from the

Transition Temperature in Oxanorbornene Dicarboximide Based Polymers Andrew Riedl, Capstone Senior Seminar Solid polymer electrolytes are a promising alternative to small molecule organic electrolytes to increase safety in lithium ion batteries. Two polymers have been synthesized by ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) to study the decoupling of segmental motion and ion conductivity with an increase in backbone rigidity due to pi stacking. These polymers have an oxanorbornene dicarboximide

produce that came from a farmer they know. In a bad season, they’ve invested in a farmer whom they want to stick around for future harvests. O’Brien said he’s bought a share at Zestful Gardens, a Tacoma-based organic farm owned by PLU alumna Holly Foster ’96, for about seven years. He said she is always growing something, even in less fruitful seasons. “It’s an investment, and it’s insurance on their part,” O’Brien said of the annual cost. “I know she’s going to grow. She can always grow something
