. 4:00 pm - Investigating the Effects of Glutaraldehyde on Lysozyme Crystal Structure with Atomic Force Microscopy Jace Mason, Senior Capstone Seminar Glutaraldehyde, a common cross-linking reagent used in biological sciences, was investigated for its role in stabilizing protein crystals for X-ray crystallography. A model lysozyme protein was used to grow crystals in a phosphate buffer solution at two pH values promoting the formation of a monocyclic tetragonal crystal structure. Optical

ability to compatibilize blends was examined with cloud point measurements to determine the affect on a blend’s phase boundary temperature, and with atomic force microscopy to qualitatively see the affect of limiting phase separation. The higher molecular weight tetrablock was found to lower the phase transition temperature of a low molecular weight PS/PB blend from 112C to below room temperature with the addition of 8% (w/w) tetrablock, showing that it is an effective compatibilizer. The lower

The PLU EXPLORE! Retreat supports PLU’s commitment to a campus education environment rich with reflection and dialogue about meaning and purpose in life. The EXPLORE!
take a long time, but the important thing is to continue the journey. Having “the answer” to these questions is not the goal, because as you go through life, your question can be answered in different ways. Big Enough Questions are questions that force us to pause and to ponder. They keep us awake at night. They represent questions about who we are, about what our place is in this world, and how to bring these two ideas together. Got Questions? Email us at explore@plu.edu.

TACOMA, WASH. (January 12, 2016)- Sylvia May ’18, a doctoral student at Pacific Lutheran University, was one of just eight students in the country to receive the Armed Forces Health Professions Scholarship in 2015. The prestigious scholarship will cover her tuition, books and other fees…
still at peace – there must be something greater I thought to myself. Then they all at once shouted, “You were SELECTED, CONGRATS!” My eyes filled with tears and I was beyond thankful that the hard work paid off and that I had not given up during this long, hard journey. I experienced a sense of accomplishment because the road I had traveled that year was not an easy one. What motivates you to serve in the Air Force versus as a civilian nurse? There’s nothing like a challenge in life, and my
