conditions of a novel organic pseudo-condensation synthesis by varying the temperature, metal stabilizing group and solvent used. In doing so, yields of above 80% were realized. Further, substrate scope analysis was performed and potential enzymatic inhibition was investigated via computer modeling. 1:40 pm - Effect of Dithiocarbamate Ligands on Cadmium Selenide Nanospheres and Nanobelts Jenny Stein, Senior Capstone Seminar We study how ligands bind to different shapes of cadmium selenide nanocrystals

best it provides a false sense of security.

For written work, Turnitin’s Originality Check (via Sakai Assignments) is a popular tool to discourage plagiarism and cheating. An option for multiple choice assessments is to use “question pools” where assessment questions are drawn randomly from a large pool of
