THE DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS OF PHOSPHONATE-BASED INHIBITORS OF NUCLEOTIDYLYLTRANSFERASES
(2013-07-22)Nucleotidylyltransferase inhibitors are designed to target enzymes responsible for one step of cell wall biosynthesis in Gram-positive, Gram-negative and mycobacteria. Glucose 1-phosphate thymidylyltransferase Cps2L/RmlA ... -
DESIGN AND TESTING OF LOW DIVERGENCE ELLIPTICAL-JET NOZZLES FOR USE IN CREEP-FEED GRINDING
(2013-12-05)A novel method was developed to design and fabricate nozzles capable of producing low-divergence fluid jets. Nozzle apertures were elliptical, and jets exhibited elliptical cross-sections with divergence varying predictably ... -
DESIGN AND USABILITY TESTING OF A NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION-BASED BEDSIDE MEDICATION ADMINISTRATION AND CLINICAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
(2018-08-17)Medication administration errors are a critical issue that can lead to significant clinical consequences. In nursing practice, the three major causes of medication errors in the administration stage are failure to confirm ... -
DESIGN FOR INNOVATIVE ENERGY EFFICIENT FLOOR HEATING SYSTEM
(2010-09-09)The ongoing search for energy conservation in built structures and during the construction process prompted this thesis work to explore the use of sustainable technologies for floor heating systems. The thesis work explores ... -
DESIGN OF 3D-PRINTED MULTI-CATHETER GYNECOLOGICAL BRACHYTHERAPY APPLICATORS WITH CUSTOMIZABLE CATHETER POSITIONS
(2023-08-30)Brachytherapy patients with asymmetric gynecological targets are often planned with vendor-supplied applicators and templates, known as the Miami or MUPIT applicator. This research designed multi-catheter applicators with ... -
Design of a Cardiovascular Flow Mimicking Pump
(2016-09-12)In vitro testing is an important part of the development of new cardiovascular prosthesis designs. One important aspect of simulating the cardiovascular system is properly modeling the pulsatile flow created by the heart. ... -
