Assessment of g14-3-3 multimerization in vitro. by Annarita Fiorillo (140695)

“…Similarly, the presence of either phosphorylated T214 in the endogenous g14-3-3 or the glutamic acid at the same position in the T214E mutant decrease the theoretical Ip from 5.09 to 5.03 and 5.01, respectively, thus accounting for the increased migration of the proteins in the gel. …”

Dependence of measurement precision on signal intensity by G. Hamilton (28103)

“…Within each exposure the intensities of the elements range over 4 U in A as in , and between exposures they decrease by exactly the expected factor of 10. Careful examination of the points that are individually distinguishable in the two highest exposure times show that they have nearly identical relative locations, indicating very low random noise in the entire analytical process. …”

Thromboelastography (TEG) measurements of coagulation. by Clare Selden (453350)

“…The alpha angle (angle of slope of r to k denotes rate of clot formation); in Group 1, pigs had an increased angle with BAL treatment, in Group 2 animals the angle decreased with time <b>(E)</b>. MA is the maximum amplitude on the trace, reflecting the absolute strength of the clot; Group 1 pigs showed a stronger clot compared with Group 2 animals <b>(F)</b>.…”

Detecting the Influence of Initial Pioneers on Succession at Deep-Sea Vents by Lauren S. Mullineaux (115165)

“…Pioneer colonists included two gastropod species: <em>Ctenopelta porifera</em>, which was new to the vent field, and <em>Lepetodrilus tevnianus</em>, which had been rare before the eruption but persisted in high abundance afterward, delaying and possibly out-competing the ubiquitous pre-eruption congener <em>L. elevatus</em>. A decrease in abundance of <em>C. porifera</em> over time, and the arrival of later species, corresponded to a decrease in vent fluid flow and in the sulfide to temperature ratio. …”
