▼ DNA-based bio-analysis is important in the fields of molecular diagnostics, environmental and food safety monitoring, pathogen identification, forensic sciences, etc. Electrochemical DNA-based bio-analysis has the advantages of high sensitivity, compatibility for miniaturization and easy operation. Most of existing electrochemical approaches require a probe immobilization step, which increases preparation time, lowers hybridization efficiency, requires washing steps, hampers multiplexing and therefore limits the application of the technology in point-of-care scenarios. This thesis describes a novel “immobilization-free” approach for electrochemical DNA-based bio-analysis in which no probe immobilization step is required and the hybridization or other interaction between the detection probe and the target occurs in a homogeneous solution phase. The approach takes advantage of the neutral backbone of a ferrocene-labeled peptide nucleic acid (Fc-PNA) probe, utilizing the electrostatic repulsion between the negatively-charged DNA backbone and a negatively-charged ITO electrode to transduce the hybridization between the target DNA and the Fc-PNA into a reduction of the electrochemical signal of Fc, therefore realizing an immobilization-free, signal-off electrochemical DNA detection. Based on the immobilization-free electrochemical DNA detection, an electrochemical melting curve analysis technique is developed, as well as a multiplex immobilization-free electrochemical DNA detection and quantification method. In order to produce more reliable results, the immobilization-free electrochemical DNA detection is transformed to the “signal-on” operating mode by introducing an additional DNA probe and solution-phase competitive hybridization into the system. Furthermore, the application of the immobilization-free electrochemical DNA detection strategy is expanded to the detection of DNA-modifying enzymes (exemplified with DNA polymerase) and aptamer-binding bio-molecules (exemplified with adenosine). Finally, the detection sensitivity of the immobilization-free electrochemical DNA-based bio-analytical platform is improved by using an electrode coated with a positively-charged conducing polymer as well as an interdigitated array electrode. The development of an immobilization-free detection platform is a great leap towards point-of-care applications of electrochemical DNA-based bio-analysis technologies.

▼ This study covers industry analysis, financial analysis and market analysis of Nepal orthodox tea. It aims to evaluate the industry forces, analyze the financial performance of firms, and assess market potential. The study is based on field survey, key informants’ interviews, and participant observation in combination with data from secondary sources. The financial information of 65 tea processing firms was collected using standard financial formats. The production and trade related statistical data were obtained from National Tea and Coffee Development Board Nepal, Trade and Export Promotion Center Nepal, FAOSTAT, International Trade Center and STATISTA. The results of industry analysis indicate that in general, tea processors have low bargaining power against input suppliers and tea buyers. The processing industry was found to be less attractive for new entrants. The threat of substitutes was found to be low. But there is intense internal competition among processing firms for resources and markets. Limited and inefficient production, low economies of scale, unorganized supply chain system, limited access to global market are the major binding constraints identified by this study. The results of the financial analysis found positive returns of investment and increasing returns to scale. However, the average capacity utilization of the processing firms is found to be 33 percent. A Cobb-Douglas production function was used to estimate production potential and the result depicted that a one percent increase in the investment in capital, labor and raw material could increase revenue by 0.20 percent, 0.12 percent and 0.68 percent respectively. Thus, this study revealed that the processing firms can decrease processing costs and increase profits by expanding production. The total factor productivity is found to be 3.67 which is the growth of real output not explained by the increase in capital and labor used in the production. The global tea market is growing at the annual compound growth rate of 3.4 percent by volume, 5.7 percent by price and 9.3 percent by value. About 79 percent of the consumers who purchased Nepalese tea rated it excellent. This study informs that there is a promising export potential due to increased demand, competitive price, unique taste and quality products. However, the study shows that about 90 percent of the total exports go to the low-priced Indian market and only 10 percent are exported to premium market. The analysis indicates that China, India, Sri Lanka and Kenya are the major competitor of Nepal. Similarly, Pakistan, Russia, United Arab Emirates and Morocco are potential markets for volume export whereas European countries and North America are potential lucrative markets for specialty Nepalese tea. As a result of foregoing it is recommended that Nepalese exporters diversify and differentiate their market to enhance their profit potential. The findings of this study are particularly relevant to the Nepalese tea processors to improve their competitiveness, production efficiencies, and… Advisors/Committee Members: Aleksan Shanoyan.

▼ This work is concerned with analysing the potential impact of direct changes to large- scale enterprise systems, and, in particular, how to minimise testing efforts on such changes. A typical enterprise system may consist of hundreds of thousands of classes and millions of methods. Thus, it is extremely costly and difficult to apply conventional testing techniques to such a system. Retesting everything after a change is very expensive, and in practice generally not necessary. Selective testing can be more effective. However, it requires a deep understanding of the target system and a lack of that understanding can lead to insufficient test coverage. Change Impact Analysis can be used to estimate the impacts of the changes to be applied, providing developers/testers with confidence in selecting necessary tests and identifying untested entities. Conventional change impact analysis approaches include static analysis, dynamic analysis or a hybrid of the two analyses. They have proved to be useful on small or medium size programs, providing users an inside view of the system within an acceptable running time. However, when it comes to large-scale enterprise systems, the sizes of the programs are orders of magnitude larger. Conventional approaches often run into resource problems such as insufficient memory and/or unacceptable running time (up to weeks). More critically, a large number of false-negatives and false-positives can be generated from those approaches.In this work, a conservative static analysis with the capability of dealing with inheritance was conducted on an enterprise system and associated changes to obtain all the potential impacts. Later an aspect-based dynamic analysis was used to instrument the system and collect a set of dynamic impacts at run-time. We are careful not to discard impacts unless we can show that they are definitely not impacted by the change. Reachability analysis examines the program to see “Whether a given path in a program representation corresponds to a possible execution path”. In other words, we employ reachability analysis to eliminate infeasible paths (i.e., miss-matched calls and returns) that are identified in the control-flow of the program. Furthermore, in the phase of alias analysis, we aim at identifying paths that are feasible but cannot be affected by the direct changes to the system, by searching a set of possible pairs of accesses that may be aliased at each program point of interest. Our contributions are, we designed a hybrid approach that combines static anal- ysis and dynamic analysis with reachability analysis and alias/pointer analysis, it can be used to (1) solve the scalability problem on large-scale systems, (2) reduce false-positives and not introduce false-negatives, (3) extract both direct and indirect changes, and (4) identify impacts even before making the changes. Using our approach, organizations can focus on a much smaller, relevant subset of the overall test suite instead of blindly doing their entire suite of tests. Also it enables testers to augment… Advisors/Committee Members: Wassyng, Alan, Maibaum, Tom, Computing and Software.

▼ In this thesis mass spectral and chromatographic techniques were developed and applied to identify and characterise numerous novel platinum(II) and (IV) compounds designed as anticancer agents. In a novel method for the synthesis of cis-oxalato(trans- -1,2- cyclohexanediamine)platinum(II) or oxaliplatin these techniques could be applied to differentiate between the molecular complex and the autoionised analogue (viz. Ptdach2 2+Ptox2 2-). In another novel synthetic method for the same compound the ligand exchange reactions at various temperatures could be investigated and kinetic curves obtained served to illuminate the chemistry involved, indicating the role of small amounts of water in the essentially non-aqueous solvent systems dmf and isoamyl alcohol respectively. These allowed ligand exchange without resulting in hydrolyses even up to 85°C. The ionisation rate of divalent platinum halide complexes was determined for various amine ligands as well as N-S chelate ligands. A comparison of these could suggest why N-S complexes have poor anticancer action. Ionisation was not only studied for neutral molecular species but also for monocationic ones. Relationships could be found with stereochemical aspects of the chelates used. By investigating results of EV-CAD studies thermodynamic data could be obtained which indicated that bond strength decreases from chloro to iodo analogues although extent of ionisation in aqueous solution, i.e kinetic stability, is the reverse. Products formed by the reaction of NO2 gas with Platinum(II) compounds could be identified and separated which greatly contributed to the understanding of the chemistry involved in the formation of mononitro platinum(IV) complexes.

▼

Discriminant analysis uses labelled observations to infer the labels of unlabelled observations in a population. Despite many advances in unsupervised and, to a lesser extent, semi-supervised learning over the past decade, discriminant analysis is often employed using approaches that date back to very well-known work of Fisher in the 1930s. One notable exception is mixture discriminant analysis, where the labels are estimated using parametric finite mixture models, commonly the Gaussian mixture model. The supposed advantage with mixture discriminant analysis is that multiple Gaussian components can be used for each class, hence providing a work around when a class is not Gaussian. This thesis makes several contributions to ``modern" discriminant analysis. Three robust discriminant analysis methods are introduced using mixtures of multivariate t-distributions, mixtures of multivariate power exponential distributions, and mixtures of contaminated Gaussian distributions, respectively. This provides an appealing framework for handling varying tail-weights and peakedness in the classes that may also contain mild outliers. To facilitate the modelling of asymmetric classes, we also explore robust discriminant analysis via finite mixtures of generalized hyperbolic distributions and mixtures of multivariate skew-t distributions. These approaches are tailored towards skewed classes but also have the added advantage of modelling symmetric classes where necessary. Finally, we introduce an approach that combines support vector machines with mixture discriminant analysis. This approach defines class boundaries in the labelled observations and, in some sense, improves mixture discriminant analysis performance. Crucially, in all of our mixture modelling work, we consider the case where the number of components per class is one. The utility of the approaches introduced is demonstrated on simulated and real data sets.

▼ Although the term complaining represents an ostensibly straightforward behaviour, it has come to obtain a range of meanings within academic and commercial works which have directed research toward understanding the behaviour and attempting to improve the way that it is undertaken, particularly in commercial environments where complaint handling constitutes an important field of commercial practice for many firms. It is proposed in this thesis that such variation in the way that complaining is approached is problematic, as it is treated ways that frequently underemphasise the fundamental point that it is overwhelmingly conducted in interpersonal interactions using language as its primary vehicle (Edwards, 2005). This thesis offers an approach to complaint handling and complaining that eschews such approaches in favour of an empirically grounded account based on the principles of ethnographic analysis, conversation analysis, and discursive psychology. Through investigating the complaint handling procedures as practiced by employees in an institution expressly dedicated to the receipt of complaints and enquiries from customers by employing participant observation and interviews, an account of complaint handling is developed that identifies how a range of forces works to impact on the way that it is performed in an institutional environment, furnishing complaint handling with a level of detail not currently offered in managerial literature dedicated to developing the practice. Next, two research chapters present the investigation of two different aspects of complaint interactions themselves. The first of these focuses on call openings as customers and institutional agents work to align themselves to the project of the call, demonstrating varying orientations to institutional complaining as callers demonstrate their own procedures for complaining (and enquiring) which may not match the institutional prerogatives and procedures of the agents receiving the calls. The final research chapter offers an analysis of a recurrent practice in the complaint calls themselves: callers’ use of self-disclosure in the service of rendering matters as problematic and warranting complaint. This finding adds to existing discursive understandings of how complaining is done. Taken together the findings offer an alternative approach to investigating complaint handling by treating it as an indexical practice bound to local demands. This offers a detailed depiction of complaint handling and complaining ‘in situ’ that may offer researchers and commercial entities a new approach to investigating how it is that complaining is done and how, in commercial or institutional contexts, complaint handling may be improved through the methods employed in the thesis.

▼ Stent implantation is an alternative invasive technique for treating the narrowed artery or stenosis in carotid artery to restore blood to the brain. However, the restenosis process is usually observed after a few weeks of carotid stenting due to abnormal progression of atherosclerosis and thrombosis. Many studies reported that the activity of atherosclerosis and thrombosis is majorly influenced by the geometrical strut configuration. Thus, this study was carried out to determine the haemodynamic performance on different geometrical stent strut configurations based on numerical modelling and statistical analyses. Six different stent strut configurations were 3-D modelled and simulated in different physiological conditions; normal blood pressure (NBP), pre-hypertension (PH) and hypertension stage one (HS1) through computational fluid dynamic (CFD) method. The haemodynamic performance of stent was analysed based on parameters namely time averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS), time averaged wall shear stress gradient (TAWSSG), oscillatory shear index (OSI), relative residence time (RRT) and flow separation parameter (FSP). Meanwhile, Pictorial Selection Method was used to evaluate the best haemodynamic stent performance based on a scoring system. From observation, stent Type VI was seen to show the highest score for TAWSS, which was 2.98 in overall physiological condition. For TAWSSG, the lowest score was observed for Type V stent with 0.51. Furthermore, Type VI stent displayed the highest score for OSI while Type IV has the lowest score for FSP with 2.08 and 0.28, respectively. On the other hand, RRT was seen varying according to the physiological condition where the highest score in NBP and PH conditions were achieved by Type I while HS1 condition was achieved by Type V. In conclusion, Type VI has the best stent performance, whereas Type IV has the worst stent performance according to the scoring system based on haemodynamic parameters. Further, Type I, Type II, Type III and Type V stents showed moderate hemodynamic performances for all physiological conditions.

▼ The third component of guinea pig complement (C3) was isolated from EDTA-plasma by poly(ethylene)glycol precipication, depletion of plasminogen on Sepharose-L-lysine, chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, and gel filtration on Sepharose CL-6B. IgG was removed in a final step with Protein A-Sepharose. The recovery of functional activity was 56% with a purification of 81-fold. SDS-PAGE indicated an a3 chain structure. The apparent molecular weights of the alpha- and beta-3-chains were 115,000 ± 12,000 and 65,000 ± 7,000, respectively. When compared with human C3, the alpha-chain was of similar size, but, the guinea pig beta-chain was significantly smaller. This difference may in part be due to carbohydrate since guinea pig beta-chain, unlike human beta-chain, failed to stain for carbohydrate following periodic acid oxidation. The alpha- and beta-chains were separated on a column of Sepharose CL-4B equilibrated in 0.2% SDS and the amino-terminal structure of each was determined by Edman degradation. The structure of each chain was highly concordant with the corresponding chain of human C3. Incubation of guinea pig C3 with (14C) methylamine resulted in a final uptake of 0.76 moles/mole into the alpha-chain with the simultaneous acquisition of a free sulfhydryl group (SH). Human and guinea pig (14C) methylamine-inactivated C3 were immobilized on activated Thiol-Sepharose and digested with porcine elastase. SDS-PAGE of bound material released with L-cysteine revealed a primary band with a molecular weight of 33,000 (C3d) which retained the (14C) label. Amino-terminal structure of human and guinea pig C3d indicated 92% homology for the 29 residues identified. The (14C) label was released with a Glx residue at step 26 and the SH group, which appears upon nucleophilic inactivation, was released with cysteinyl residue at step 23. This indicates that a thiolester site is located at this position in the amino-terminal region of C3d. For human, a 35 residue tryptic peptide containing the thiolester site was previously isolated and the positions 1-16 reported (Tack et al., 1980, PNAS 77: 5764). The complete sequence of the 35 residue peptide is reported here and commences with the histidyl residue at position 15 in C3d.

▼ The reactions of xanthydrol with various amino acids were investigated. Spectrophotometric measurements indicated that reactions occurred between xanthydrol and the amino acids arginine, asparagine, cysteine, glutamine, histidine, lysine and tryptophan. No reaction occurred with the amino acids alanine, ?-alanine, glycine, leucine, praline, hydroxy proline, threonine or the dipeptide glycyl-L-leucine. S-Xanthyl-cysteine was isolated as the hydrochloride. The xanthyl derivatives of N-carbobenzoxy-L-asparagine and N-carbobenzoxy-L-tryptophan were prepared in crystalline form. Hydrogenation of these compounds to remove the carbobenzoxy group was unsuccessful. N-Xanthyl nicotinamide was also prepared. The reaction products of xanthydrol and the amino acids were found to be quite unstable in solution pH 8.0 when placed in a water bath at 25? for 120 minutes or heated to 95? for 60 minutes at pH 2.5 with the exception of the tryptophan product. The violet-colored material isolated from a reaction between xanthydrol and tryptophan was stable in a mixture of 12N HC1 and glacial acetic acid or 6N NaOH when refluxed for 24 hours. Cytochrome c isolated by the producer developed by Keilin and Hartree (21) found to be electrophoretically homogeneous at pH 7.3 and pH 10.68 but inhomogeneous at pH 8.5. Chromatography on IRC-50 was effective in increasing the iron content of cytochrome c from 0.13% to 0.47%, It, too, was electrophoretically homogenous at pH 7.3 and pH 10.68 but was inhomogeneous at pH 8.5. Xanthydrol was found to react with cytochrome c. The xanthyl-cytochrome c was inactive when assayed in the succinoxidase system. A 2.66 molar excess of xanthydrol was found to cause a 63% inactivation whereas a 2 molar excess if xanthydrol caused none. Xanthydrol had no apparent effect on cytochrome c when assayed chemically. Xanthyl-cytochrome c was prepared by the reaction between xanthydrol and cytochrome c in 66% acetic acid. An average of 1.8 xanthyl residues were found per mol of cytochrome c. The xanthyl-cytochrome c had a mobility of +3.8cm.2/V/sec. x 10-5 at pH 7.3 compared with a mobility of +4.8 cm. 2/V/sec. x 10-5 of cytochrome c at the same pH. Numerous differences were noted between the absorption spectra of cytochrome c and xanthyl-cytochrome c. Xanthyl-cytochrome c was found to be an inhibitor of cytochrome c in the succinoxidase system. The chemically reduced xanthyl-cytochrome c could be oxidized enzymatically and did not inhibit the enzymatic oxidation of reduced cytochrome c. Oxidized xanthyl-cytochrome c could not be found in reduced enzymatically and inhibited the enxymatic reduction of oxidized cytochrome c. A three-fold excess of xanthyl-cytochrome c caused a 35% inhibition of cytochrome c in the succinoxidase system. Oxidized xanthyl-cytochrome c was not reduced by a soluble DPNH-cytochrome c reductase prepared from beef heart.

▼ There is a bit of deception, at once familiar and enjoyable, in the finale of Haydn’s Quartet, opus 33, number 2, which causes amusement every time it is heard. The uninitiated listener is thrown off guard while the initiated enjoys watching the former’s good natured embarrassment. Here is how the deception works. Towards the end of the movement, after one of the many returns to the main theme of this rondo, Haydn introduces a few measures of Adagio followed by the “a” theme of the quick tempo, this time spelled out a phrase at a time with two measures of general rest separating each phrase. Like students in a class in harmonic dictation we hear phrase one – two measures of rest (all four instruments silent), phrase two– two measures of rest, phrase three– two measures of rest, and then phrase four with an unmistakable final phrase; and this is really the end. In Siegfried’s Funeral Music from Wagner’s Twilight of the Gods, there are long, solemn phrases between somber sounds, as though Time not measured off by sound were an Eternity, or No-Time. In the sixth measure of Debussy’s Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun there is a languorous wait before a reusing out of reverie. In Schubert’s Unfinished Symphony there is a tapering off at the end of the passage where the violins have taken up the lyrical second theme after its announcement by the cellos. The sound is left dangling on the last half beat of the measure by virtue of the full measure of G. P. which follows, which, in turn, is interrupted by a C minor chord, fortissimo-diminuendo and tremulant. The common ingredient in all these examples is a segment where all sound is stopped; there is a total silence in all voices, and the silence is of long enough duration that we are made aware of the silence for its own sake. Reflection on this device as used in these particular pieces, and in others, stimulated the author’s curiosity as to how widespread the use of silence is among composers, and as to how long a history it has in instrumental music. Speculation as to the possibility of classifying the musical situations under which such silences are encountered and noting trends of usage with individual composers or within entire periods has led to the present investigation. Little need be added to the implication of the title as to the scope of this thesis, save, perhaps, that the term “instrumental” here includes keyboard works as well as works for orchestra, chamber music ensembles, and the like. Procedure is as follows: Chapter I includes a discussion as to what constitutes silence in music, and a classification of silences based upon the points at which they occur in forms, the nature of the passages in which they are included, and the effects, subjective or otherwise, they may produce. Subsequent chapters deal with individual composers or with convenient groups of composers showing the manner or frequency of their use of this device. Statistical data contained in this study is approximate and should be given broad interpretation.

▼ Routine testing of the urine of diabetic patients for the presence and amount of sugar and acetone is a standard procedure on hospital wards. However, studies have demonstrated a significant human error factor in the results of these tests. The purpose of this study was to measure the presence and degree of bias on urine sugar and acetone tests as performed by hospital nursing personnel. The two types of bias considered were (1) the influence of the concentration of sugar in the urine on the interpretation of acetone concentration, and (2) the influence of prior knowledge of a patient’s past urine sugar and acetone on subsequent urine tests. The sample 122 included 51 registered nurses, 47 licensed practical nurses, and 24 nurse’s aids or orderlies in staff positions in two general hospitals. Each subject test six urine specimens previously prepared to exact concentrations by the investigator. A questionnaire designed to measure the subject’s knowledge of diabetic urine test, his educational preparation, and the frequency with which the subject performed the test on hospital wards was completed by each subject following completion of the urine testing. The influence of these variables on the amount of bias was examined. Variation in sugar concentration from high to low did not influence (or bias) the interpretation of acetone concentration by hospital nursing personnel. This lack of bias on acetone was maintained when the actual concentration of acetone was varied from moderate to negative. Prior knowledge of a patient’s past acetone values was found to bias subsequent acetone readings by nursing personnel. The bias was in the direction of earlier tests. Prior knowledge of the sugar values did not, however, show a influence on subsequent readings. Neither the subject’s knowledge about diabetic urine tests nor his educational preparation was found to have any relation to the degree of bias he possessed. However, the frequency with which the subject performed urine test on the hospital wards had a positive correlation to the amount of bias. A mean error score of 34 percent was shown in answer to test items measuring the subject’s knowledge of basic facts about diabetic urine tests. Licensed practical nurses had a statistically greater error score than did registered nurses. No statistical difference between any of the groups on accuracy in performance of the urine tests was found. However, the overall mean error score for all 122 subjects on performance of the 1 2 urine test was 4.3, meaning 36 percent of all reported readings were in error. This study thus demonstrated that significant errors in urine testing for sugar and acetone are made by all groups of nursing personnel employed in an adult medical-surgical hospital service. These errors bear no relation to the educational level attained by the individual tested, and they appear to be increased with those individuals who perform the test most frequently. Furthermore, the reliability of these tests is impaired when the subject has knowledge of the patient’s…

▼ Analysis of hair for the detection of illegal and therapeutic drugs has become a widely accepted alternative or complementary method to traditional urinalysis. Hair pigmentation has been shown to play a role in the incorporation of drug into hair. Drug basicity has increased the incorporation of certain basic compounds, such as cocaine, codeine, amphetamine, and phencyclidine, into pigmented hair compared to non-pigmented hair through their interactions with melanin in hair. However, the nonbasic cannabinoids should not show the same differential incorporation as do some basic drugs. We hypothesized that delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 11 -nor-delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THCA) incorporated into hair by a mechanism independent of melanin binding. THC and THCA in pigmented and nonpigmented hair collected from Long-Evans rats administered THC did not statistically differ. Cultured pigmented melanocytes (PM) and nonpigmented melanocytes (NPM) were employed to examine the effect of pigmentation on the influx and efflux of THC and THCA into and out of hair cell types. There was no difference in the influx of THC and THCA into PM and NPM, with the exception of THC in NPM at 15s and 150 min The efflux of THC and THCA further support the hypothesis that factor/s other than pigmentation effect cannabinoid retention in PM and NPM. There was no significant difference between the amount of THC effluxed from PM and NPM. THCA efflux from PM was significantly greater than NPM at 1,5, 30, and 60 min. Indirect immunofluorescence was used to observe sites of THC and COC (positive control) localization within the hair follicle. No fluorescence was evident in either pigmented or nonpigmented hair follicle sections at any time after a single dose of THC. After multiple administrations, THC was localized with epidermal keratins and sebaceous glands, not the melanosomes of the hair follicle. In contrast to THC, COC associated with the dense population of melanosomes in the cortex of the pigmented hair follicle. In conclusion, the data presented in this dissertation demonstrate that THC and THCA incorporate into hair by a mechanism independent of hair pigmentation, and suggest its incorporation is influenced by the indirect deposition via sebum and skin.
