▼ Rates of benthic O₂ exchange are important measurements for determining organic matter remineralization, and can shed light on factors driving biogeochemical processes in coastal environments. Measurement of in situ O₂ consumption and production within permeable sediments, such as those found over ~43% of the Oregon-Washington shelf, has traditionally been done using methods that underestimate the flux for environments affected by waves. Modified from atmospheric research, the non-invasive eddy correlation technique can measure O₂ flux across the sediment-water interface without disturbing the natural hydrodynamic flow. In 2009, eddy correlation measurements were made at discrete times over a 7-month period at a 30 m site off Yaquina Head, Newport, OR. The results of this newly developed method are evaluated here, together with properties of sediment cores taken at the study site. O₂ flux was found to be primarily into the bed (-6.2 to -30.7 mmol m⁻² d⁻¹) and was enhanced during periods of higher bottom water O2 concentration. Contributions to O₂ flux were seen in eddy correlation cospectra at surface wave frequencies and dependent on wave height. The sediments were fine sands with permeabilities of 1.3-4.7 x 10⁻¹¹ m². Sediment pigment and organic carbon concentrations were low (chlorophyll-α : 0.03-0.45 μg g⁻¹, phaeophytin-α: 0.6-1.4 μg g-1 and organic carbon: 0.07-0.11 wt %), indicating high rates of organic matter export and/or remineralization. From these results it is inferred that physical forcing and changes in bottom water properties affect the inner shelf sedimentary environment more than seasonal cycles in primary production.

▼ D.Phil.
The determination of several physiologically important molecules has been carried out using an oxygen electrode and various oxidase or oxygenase enzymes. The enzymatic reactions are monitored either by measuring the initial rates of oxygen uptake from the medium or by calculating the total amount of oxygen consumed in the reactions. Because of the use of enzymes, the determinations are rapid and sensitive and each one is highly specific. Versatility of analysis can be introduced into the system by suitable choice of the enzyme. Furthermore, the methods are simple, and colour or turbidity does not interfere, thus enabling even whole blood to be used directly as sample material ...

▼ Many different aspects of the determination of dissolved
oxygen
by controlled potential coulometry were investigated to find a means
of measuring the
oxygen content of natural waters. Rapid
sampling techniques, simplicity of operation, and rugged structural
features were stressed. Cells were designed to operate by either
internal electrolysis or external potential control. A type of steel
flow cell of optimum geometry was designed, and measured
oxygen
in flow streams with 3% accuracy. Periodic sampling was found to
be superior to flow analysis, and the flow cell operated by a method
of periodic entrapment of sample yielded the most promising results.
0.2% reproducibility was obtained for samples which contained one
to five ppm dissolved
oxygen, and 1% reproducibility for samples
below one ppm. The error in the analysis could not be distinguished
from the two percent error in the Winkler titration which was used
to determine the standards. Other sample entrapment cells of a different design and with different cathode materials were studied.
Two vibrating electrode cells were investigated and found to give
no better results than those cells which permit
oxygen reduction in
quiet solutions.
Mercury, gold, platinum, nichrome, stainless steel, and
brass were tested as cathode materials. The polarographic and
coulometric behavior of dissolved
oxygen reduced in cathodes of
these materials is described.
The investigation of mercury as a cathode material led to the
development of an empirical method that relies on the rapid reduction
of
oxygen on a mercury-electrolyte interface. In one case,
0.5% reproducibility was obtained for individual samples determined
at the rate of one every 15 seconds. The utility of these devices,
although the current efficiency is low, is pointed out as their
potential use as flow stream monitors.
The entire work yielded information based on new approaches
for the development of ocean-going devices which will measure
dissolved
oxygen concentrations by controlled potential coulometry
to a better degree of accuracy than the existing methods. Design theory
and cell construction is presented for devices that operate where
rapidity of successive determinations is more important than absolute
accuracy.

▼ The three-body heterogeneous and wall recombination coefficients for atomic
oxygen were measured using an electron paramagnetic
resonance spectrometer to monitor the time dependence of the
atomic
oxygen concentration. This measurement was made for a
pressure range of from .224 to 1.10 torr using pyrolysis of ozone as
a source of
oxygen atoms. The three-body heterogeneous rate constant,
k1, with molecular
oxygen as the third body was determined
independent of ozone concentration to be (5.43 ± . 08) x 10-34 cc 2
molecule-2 sec-1 The wall recombination efficiency, y, for a fused
metaphosphoric acid-sodium metaphosphate mixture, the wall coating,
was found to be 9.1 x 10-6.
The recombination coefficient, k1, resulting from a computer
fit of the data to the usual recombination model is compared to literature
values obtained from discharged
oxygen, ozone pyrolysis, and
chemiluminescence measurements.
The role that ozone concentration plays throughout the atomic
oxygen decay and the possible effects of its neglect is discussed.

▼ O2(1[delta]g) was produced in a discharge flow system and used to study the kinetics of its interaction with a number of olefins, amines and a sulfide. Rate constants
were determined for the removal of O2(1[delta]g) by a series of olefins at a total pressure of 1.0 torr.
The values obtained were:
1.1 x 10(7) 1mol(-1) sec(-1) by cyclopentadiene; 3.5 x 10(6) 1mol(-1) sec(-1)
by 2,5-dimethylfuran; 1.6 x 10(6) 1mol(-1) sec(-1) by 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene; 1.0 x 10(5) 1mol(-1) sec(-1) by 2-methyl-2-butene; 3.2 x 10(4) 1mol(-1) sec(-1) by cis-2-butene; 1.3 x 10(4) 1mol(-1) sec(-1) by trans-2-butene. Some correlation was found between the ionization energy of the olefin and the magnitude of the rate constant.
For some of the olefins the rate constants were found to increase with increasing pressure. A detailed study of this trend using 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, 2-methyl-2-butene and cis-2-butene showed that the interaction could be analyzed into the following second order and third order processes:
O2(1[delta]g) + Olefin [formula omitted] hydroperoxide; O2(1[delta]g) + Olefin [formula omitted] + Olefin; O2(1[delta]g) + Olefin + [formula omitted] + Olefin.
From the kinetic measurements and a determination
of the ratio of peroxide formed to O2(1[delta]g) removed the
following rate constants were calculated:
( Reactant ) [formula omitted];
2,3-Dimethyl 0.98 x 10(6) 0.3 x 10(6) 1.26 x 10(10); -2-butene;
2-Methyl 1.1 x 10(4); 1 x 10(5) 1.4 x 10(9);
-2-butene
The study was extended to include triethylamine, diethylamine and diethylsulfide, where complications are more easily avoided since no chemical reaction is observed. For these quenching species the following rate constants were obtained:
Quencher [formula omitted];
Triethyl- 1 x 10(6) 3.5 x 10(10) 2 x 10(10) 1.5 x 10(10); amine;
Diethyl- 5.9 x 10(4) 2.7 x 10(8); amine;
Diethylsulfide- 8.7 x 10(9).
Taking into account some earlier quenching studies conducted in the condensed phase and the relative efficiencies of different third bodies, a set of elementary
processes has been proposed which involves the participation of a weakly bound complex between O2(1[delta]g) and the quenchers which displays a third order quenching process.

▼ The electric discharge method of generating, singlet-molecular oxygen was demonstrated to be a useful technique for preparative scale oxygenations of suitable organic substrates. Representative examples of known singlet oxygen acceptors were exposed to discharge-generated singlet oxygen while dissolved in organic solvents at -78⁰ or adsorbed onto solid supports at room temperature. Typical oxygenation products were obtained in generally good yields. The various known methods of generating singlet molecular oxygen and the relative advantages and disadvantages of the electric discharge method are-discussed.
Adsorption of substrates onto solid surfaces appears to have no effect on the course of the addition of singlet oxygen to the organic moiety. The success of this technique is perhaps due to the increase in the surface area of contact between the substrate and singlet oxygen..
Exploratory oxygenations of l,⁴-dienes and epoxides adsorbed onto solid surfaces were all unsuccessful.

▼ Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
Plants being sessile organisms cannot escape abiotic and biotic stresses and therefore have to adapt to the environment in order to enhance survival. In certain plant species, initiation of somatic embryogenesis is a form of morphogenic adaptation in response to stress. In somatic embryogenesis, somatic cells acquire totipotency after dedifferentiation and entry into the cell cycle. The highly regenerable genotype of <i>Medicago truncatula</i> (Jemalong 2HA; 2HA), provides an invaluable experimental system for investigating the processes involved in somatic embryogenesis. Somatic embryogenesis <i>in vitro</i> requires hormones and a stress signal. As a first step in the induction of somatic embryogenesis in the Medicago system, excision of 2HA leaf explants notably causes an oxidative burst induced from the mechanical wounding, and the extracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced is a necessary trigger for regeneration. However, ROS are highly reactive and toxic, excessive amounts can cause damage to biomolecules and eventually leading to premature cell death. Successful regeneration therefore entails the ability of a plant cell to also maintain an optimal subcellular redox environment. Plants as part of their normal aerobic metabolism can produce ROS, but have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to scavenge ROS. In this context, peroxisomes are one of the major sources of ROS produced within a plant cell as part of the photorespiration pathway through glycolate oxidase; but are also involved in various metabolic processes including β-oxidation of fatty acids and biosynthesis of several plant hormones. Additionally, when first discovered, peroxisomes were noted to contain an arsenal of redox antioxidant machinery including site specific catalase. This prompted a consideration of the regulation of peroxisome dynamics during culture of Arabidopsis protoplasts, in the context of their antioxidant capacity; and how these dynamics during dedifferentiation and cell division induction compared to mitochondria and plastids previously investigated in this laboratory. In this thesis, the role of peroxisome dynamics in achieving redox homeostasis, whilst facilitating the acquisition of plant cellular totipotency through dedifferentiation and re-entry into the cell cycle was examined. This encompasses the early stages of somatic embryogenesis initiation. It was demonstrated that explant wounding in Medicago, induces a multiphasic oxidative response predominantly from the plant NADPH oxidase (RBOH <i>protein</i>) during <i>in vitro</i> culture for somatic embryogenesis. This mechanistic wound-induced oxidative burst was also shown during Arabidopsis protoplast isolation. The culture of Arabidopsis protoplasts induces another oxidative burst, and during culture, the role of mitochondria-derived ROS in the initiation of cellular dedifferentiation and cell division has to be considered. Using peroxisome-targeted fluorescent proteins, it was shown that during Arabidopsis…

▼ The quality of healthcare in low-resource countries is often limited by the environment, lack of funds, staff availability, electricity availability, and more. In the words of a Malawian physician, medicine can feel like improvisation, wherein one must make due with available resources rather than desired resources. One prevalent problem among low-resource hospitals is the functionality and longevity of medical equipment. A large percentage of all medical equipment in Malawian hospitals is donated, resulting in a wide spectrum of models, necessary spare parts, and functionality. These machines can break quickly due to heavy use prior to donation, missing user and maintenance manuals, and a lack of replacement parts. Thus, finding necessary life-saving equipment in Malawian hospital wards can be a challenge. One such piece of equipment is the
oxygen concentrator. This device fills many roles in low-resource hospitals, but in many Malawian hospitals it is the most frequently malfunctioning piece of equipment.
A survey was used in hospitals in Malawi’s Central and Southern Regions to collect information on why
oxygen concentrators malfunction. Common reported causes of malfunction were
oxygen concentrators overheating due to clogged exhaust vents, and the unavailability of necessary disposable filters. A stand made from locally-available materials was developed to improve
oxygen concentrator ventilation. Replaceable filter alternatives were researched, designed, constructed, and tested, made from housing materials and filter materials available in Malawi or continental Africa.
A primary source of difficulty for low-resource hospitals is dependence on more developed nations for supplies and aid. This work suggests that designing materials from locally-available materials can lessen this dependency and make necessary medical materials more accessible. Collaboration with material suppliers and engineers in Malawi can provide sustainable designs and systems to help hospitals access the supplies they need to service
oxygen concentrators and other equipment.

▼ Remediation of ground water contamination associated
with industrialization will continue to be a challenge in the 21st
century. As the world’s population grows, it’s use of nitrate
(NO3) and perchlorate (ClO4 in agricultural and industrial
processes will continue to grow with demand. Both oxyanions are
pervasive ground water contaminants owing to their high solubility
and mobility in water. The dimethyl sulfoxide reductase (DMSOR)
family of enzymes utilize high valent Mo(VI-VI) metal centers bound
to two pyranopterin cofactors to catalyze the two-electron
oxygen
atom transfer (OAT) to and from substrates. Nitrate reductase and
perchlorate reductase are oxotransferase enzymes belonging to the
DMSOR family of enzymes that utilize nitrate and perchlorate for
metabolic processes. While MoIV(O) and MoVI(O)2 complexes that
mimic the active site structure and function of oxotransferase
enzymes are prevalent, few of these model complexes can reduce
nitrate or perchlorate through
oxygen atom transfer (OAT)
chemistry. Recent efforts to achieve the biologically and
environmentally relevant nitrate and perchlorate OAT chemistry
utilizing Schiff base and pyridyl thiolate containing
molybdenum-oxo complexes, and the effect of the redox inactive
Lewis acid additive Sc(OTf)3 on the OAT are
presented.

▼ The rapid advance proton exchange membrane fuel cell
technology demand highly efficient platinum based nanoscale
electrocatalysts for fuel cell reactions. In this dissertation,
monodisperse nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using
organic solution phase synthesis methods. Not only the particle
size, shape and composition were precisely controlled, but also the
electronic properties of the surface atoms were finely tuned to
reach the optimal catalytic performance. Moreover, Pt single
crystals and sputtered thin films provide a unique insight into the
structure-function relationship of the complex nanoparticle
surfaces. First, pure Pt nanoparticles were used as a model
catalyst to explore the best surface cleaning method for
nanoparticle activation. The particle size and shape effects on
oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at fuel cell cathode were studied
to optimize particle activity and stability in the ORR condition.
Pt alloy nanoparticles and nanowires with Pt skin layer structure
were produced with enhanced ORR activity. To minimize the Pt use,
core/shell structured Au/PtM (M=Fe, Co, Cu….) nanoparticles were
designed and synthesized. These core/shell nanocatalysts
demonstrated tunable activities with much enhanced stability.
Furthermore, Pt3Sn nanoparticles were also developed as catalyst at
anode to catalyze methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). They exhibited
enhanced CO tolerance and were promising next generation anode
catalyst for MOR.

▼ The increase in energy consumption and the need to decrease the amount of CO2 emitted in the atmosphere, has pushed the world's leading manufacturers in the automotive field to invest in research aiming to find cleaner energy storage devices.
Among them, metal-air batteries has attracted a lot of attention because of their incredibly high energy density.
These systems aim to offer in the future a charming alternative to the high-consumption widespread Li-ion batteries in terms of efficiency, energy density, costs, rechargeability, and safety.
Different metals can be adopted as anode and, for this project, we decided to employ magnesium in our system.
Magnesium batteries, if they will ever truly become a product of commercial interest, will be much smaller than Li batteries, cheaper, and safer, besides ensuring a high energy density.
The purpose of the work is to provide some notion on battery basic working principles and to explore different electrolytes, salts and catalysts which could be good candidates for magnesium-
oxygen battery system.
Different experiments have been carried out to better understand and analyze the evolution of the chemical processes, reduce the polarization gap, and improve efficiency and cycleability.
Many combinations have been considered, utilizing as solvents: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME), tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TEGDME), and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIMBF4); and as salts: trifluoromethanesulfonate, bromide, chloride, and nitrate.
Moreover, the report will analyze the effect of changes in ratio between the solvents and various salts concentrations, plus the use of several salts mixtures in order to promote magnesium plating and stripping.
Finally, cyclic voltammetry experiments have been performed, using MoS2, WS2 and MoxW(1-x)S2 (i.e. different molar ratio) to evaluate their catalytic activity in Mg/O2 batteries.

▼ Cesium adsorption on Pt(111) and its coadsorption with iodine and
oxygen is studied in this dissertation. The work function during Cs dosing first decreases and at Δφ≈ 3 eV ( Cs = 0:15) the surface undergoes surface transition between a disordered anomalous state (Pt(111)(anom)-Cs) and islands of a Pt(111)(2 x 2)-Cs causing a change in the slope of the work function curve. The work function curve reaches minimum at -5:5 eV where the surface is fully covered with the Pt(111)(2 2)-Cs structure (θCs = 0:25). Further Cs dosing results in a work function increase and the surface undergoes a phase transition to Pt(111)(p3 p3)-Cs. The Cs saturated structure (Pt(111)(ihcp)-Cs) has an hexagonal symmetry with the unit cell vector aligned with the h1; 0i direction of the substrate. Cs in the anomalous state desorbs from the surface in a high-temperature TDS peak (> 1000 K). When the lock-in
TDS detection technique is used, this peak appears to be phase shifted by 180 when compared to the desorption peak of normally adsorbed Cs ( Cs > 0:15) . This phase shift is a consequence of a positive charge of desorbing Cs. The TDS and work function behavior were explained by a Monte Carlo desorption model incorporating di¤erent desorption behavior for all four observed adsorption phases.
When O2 is dosed on a Pt(111)-Cs surface, the maximum coverage of
oxygen bonded to the surface is significantly increased in comparison to Pt(111). Anomalously adsorbed Cs activates the O2 bond but does not interact strongly with coadsorbed O. However, when O2 is dosed on Pt(111)(ihcp)-Cs, the
oxygen first adsorbs to a sub-layer adsorption site and strongly interacts with Cs. The
oxygen in this state is responsible for thermal stabilization of coadsorbed Cs. When iodine is coadsorbed on a Pt(111)-Cs surface, it also strongly interacts with and thermally stabilizes Cs. During the desorption of Cs,I layers, some Cs and I desorb together in the form of a CsxIy cluster.
The surface structures observed by LEED during the coadsorption of Cs and I are in good agreement with atomic arrangements predicted for ionic layers. The validity of this conclusion and the general behavior of ionic layers was checked by an electrostatic energy calculation for various structures.

▼ This thesis focuses on understanding the
relationship between the active site structure and function in the
heme-containing enzyme chlorite dismutase from Dechloromonas
aromatica (DaCld). DaCld decomposes chlorite (ClO2-) into chloride
(Cl-) and
oxygen (O2) via an efficient reaction that is nearly
diffusion controlled. Due to the existence of
advanced structure-activity models for heme peroxidases and the
similarity of the behavior of peroxide and chlorite as substrates,
we initiated our structure-function studies in 2008 by analogy to
these enzymes. In 2009, the crystal structures of DaCld and a
second Cld were solved for the first time, allowing us to consider
the influence of structural elements directly. We investigated the
role of an arginine residue (Arg183) in the pocket above the heme
plane in catalysis using diverse biochemistry, molecular biology
and spectroscopy techniques (notably stopped-flow, resonance Raman,
UV/Visible). We mutated this residue, which has an alkylguanidinium
side chain, to lysine (primary amine), glutamine (alkylamide), and
alanine (methyl), and studied both the native (wild type, WT) and
modified forms. We had found earlier that the rate of catalysis and
several spectroscopic properties of the WT protein are
pH-dependent. We proposed that this was either due to acid/base
chemistry at Arg183 (analogous to an active-site His in
peroxidase), or to the mobility of its side chain due to
pH-dependent hydrogen bond formation/cleavage. The latter model was
most consistent with the available data; particularly resonance
Raman (rR) data for the ferrous carbonyl form of WT and mutant
proteins. By reacting the protein with peracids, we were able to
characterize Compound I (oxoferryl porphyrin radical) which decays
to a Compound ES-like species where the porphyrin radical migrates
to a nearby tryptophan residue. We mutated three conserved
tryptophan residues in DaCld’s active site in order to attempt to
block off radical migration and stabilize Compound I.
The ability of DaCld to produce such a great
amount of
oxygen can be used for other needs, for example in the
prevention of tissue necrosis. DaCld offers the possibility of
production of O2 in situ in a regulated fashion and without
generation of toxic byproducts.

▼ Optical pH and
oxygen sensors have various advantages over Clark amperometric
oxygen electrodes, including portability and utility in aqueous environments unsuitable for the Clark electrode. The goal of this study was to affordably develop a dual pH and
oxygen-sensing probe that could be used in a variety of settings. This study resulted in the development of the
oxygen-sensing component of such a device. This component consisted of Platinum (II)-meso-tetra (2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorophenyl) porphyrin (PtTFPP) suspended in a polystyrene-based matrix. A 405 nm LED excited the PtTFPP phosphorescence and a Hamamatsu Digital Color Sensor S11012-01CR recorded the resultant emission intensities of the porphyrin. A code was written for an Arduino Uno ® microcontroller, to control the LED and color sensor, while recording the appropriate data. The
oxygen-sensing component showed expected
oxygen sensitivity during
oxygen depletion studies.

▼ M.S. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2013.
The filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 is a Gram-negative prokaryote that performs oxygenic photosynthesis. In addition to being an obligate phototroph, Anabaena is capable of differentiating specialized nitrogen-fixing cells called heterocysts. The development of terminally-differentiated heterocyst cells occurs in the absence of fixed nitrogen and forms a one-dimensional pattern along the filament of vegetative cells. The exchange of intercellular signals controls the regulated spacing of the heterocyst cells that on average arise every tenth cell along the filament (Figure 1). The formation of heterocyst cells effectively separates the oxygen-labile nitrogenase complex from oxygen-evolving photosynthesis that occurs in vegetative cells. Heterocysts and vegetative cells are mutually interdependent. Heterocyst cells lack photosystem II and the capacity to fix carbon and must rely on the vegetative cells for sources of reductant. In return, heterocysts supply the filament with fixed nitrogen (Cumino et al. 2007; Marcozzi et al 2009). The development of two distinct cell types in a simple one-dimensional pattern makes Anabaena a simple example of cellular differentiation and pattern formation.

▼ With the high requirement of increasing people’s living standards and building a more sustainable society, electrochemical energy storage devices with large energy density, high power density, and long term durability are greatly needed to mitigate the consumption of fossil fuels. Among all those well-known energy storage systems, zinc-air batteries are one of the most appealing candidates due to sufficient and inexpensive resources applied, promising energy density, as well as the high reduction potential of zinc. However, Zn-air batteries always suffer from relatively high overpotential, which is predominantly originated from the sluggish kinetics of oxygen electrocatalytic reactions. Enormous efforts have been devoted to the development of active bifunctional electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER).
Although noble-metal catalysts, such as platinum, iridium, and their alloys have been proved to own outstanding electrochemical performances for oxygen electrocatalysis, their insufficient catalytic bifunctionality, rarity and high cost hinder the commercial utilization. As a result, the design and synthesis of cost-effective, robust and highly stable bifunctional electrocatalysts to replace noble metal catalysts for zinc-air batteries are greatly desirable to realize the commercialization of Zn-air batteries. In recent years, the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are burgeoning as attractive precursors for the fabrication of transition-metal based bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts with controllable nanostructures due to the structural and compositional advantages of the MOF.
Herein, a layered Co-hexamine coordination framework is prepared and used as an efficient precursor to synthesize high-performance ORR/OER bifunctional electrocatalyst featured with cobalt oxide and cobalt phosphide heterostructured structure (denoted as CoO/CoxP).

▼ Two decades of observations in the eastern South Pacific show changes in
oxygen concentrations and apparent
oxygen utilizations (AOUs) in the lower thermocline 26.5-27.0 sigma-theta. The 2013 GEOTRACES O2 and AOU data along ~12°S from the
oxygen deficient zone (ODZ; O2 < 50 umol/kg) are compared with repeat hydrography data from the 1990s to the 2010s; the recent data add detail and process information to earlier work. In 2013, transient tracer ratio ages suggest renewal times of over two decades at the core of the ODZ as compared with being at least 7 years younger at the same densities in the subtropical gyre. Related to the age differences in the two regions, we observe
oxygen parameters changing in different directions over the two decades, also different processes and forcing dominate. Similar to earlier studies, we found subtropical gyre
oxygen concentrations increase and AOUs decrease due to increases in ventilation between 1990s and 2013, coupled to changes in southern hemisphere westerlies. In the core of the ODZ,
oxygen concentrations decrease at an annual rate of 0.2 umol/kg/yr, AOUs increase between 1990s and 2013, and the 5 umol/kg contour reaches ~300 m deeper in the water column. ODZ changes are estimated to be due to increased biological consumption, consistent with increased upwelling corresponding to increased trade winds during that period. Thus, the difference in
oxygen between the 1990s and 2013 is due to - proximity of the ODZ to coastal upwelling and longer ventilation time scales in the ODZ than gyre. In the gyre, water masses are closer to their sources and ages are younger. Whereas, the ODZ is more isolated from water mass source regions, and it takes more than two decades for the ventilated gyre waters to reach the ODZ. We have shown that in the South Pacific changes in
oxygen parameters in the ODZ and subtropical gyre – to date – appear to be due to independent processes and forcing acting in each region. Continuing ocean observations are needed to monitor changes in gases such as
oxygen that are critical to life.

▼ Ceria (CeO2) is a fluorite type oxide that has been used extensively as an oxygen storage media in three-way catalysts, as an oxygen partial pressure regulator, as a fuel additive for the reduction of soot and for the production of syn-gas from water and carbon dioxide. It is known that exposing ceria powders to low pO2 and/or high temperature conditions will cause ceria to partially reduce. This partial reduction leads to the formation of oxygen vacancies, which up to a limit, do not significantly influence the crystal structure. When partially reduced ceria is exposed to high pO2 environments, such as open air, the ceria powders will readily reoxidize even at room temperature. The reoxidation effectively fills the oxygen vacancies with new oxygen. To analyze this process, we have devised an experimental procedure utilizing triple oxygen isotope labeled initial ceria powders. These powders are heated (700°C) and cooled under vacuum prior to exposure to air. By combining the results from independent experimental sets using different initial oxygen isotope labels we have determined the kinetic isotope fractionation factors for both high temperature reduction and low temperature reoxidation using a graphical method. Our results indicate that there is a 1.5‰ ±0.8‰ increase in the δ18O value of the remaining ceria upon heating in vacuum at 700°C for one hour. When the vacuum is broken at room temperature, the heated ceria will take in 3% to 19% oxygen from air, with a δ18O of 2.6‰ (-5.3‰; +8.3‰). These fractionation factors are consistent with a kinetic fractionation model. The issue associated with room-temperature reoxidation renders ceria a poor choice of exchange medium for oxygen isotope analysis of CO2 or other oxygen-bearing gases.

▼ The global effort to
improve the lifetime, power densities and energy
efficiency of energy storage and conversion technologies,
such as batteries, fuel cells and supercapacitors, has
become dramatically more extensive with increased demand
from portable electronics and the electrification of
transportation. Currently, lithiumoxygen (Li-O2)
batteries have been viewed as the most promising
next-generation electrochemical energy storage technology
to meet the transportation application in the near
future. Unlike traditional Li-ion batteries, Li-O2
batteries abandon the intercalation electrodes and Li
ions react directly with O2 from the air in a porous
electrode. This unique battery chemistry and electrode
architecture induce an extremely large theoretical
specific energy ~ 3600 W h kg-1, which may be capable of
providing enough energy storage capability for electric
vehicles to drive more than 500 miles (per charge). Such
high specific potential energy density is several times
higher than that possible Li-ion battery technology and
can even match the 1700 W h kg-1 for a gasoline energy
system. To date, the main challenges faced by the Li-O2
batteries are the cycling-instability of electrolytes and
the low round–trip efficiency which could be increased by
optimizing cathode catalysts and structures. These
shortcomings will hamper the commercialization of this
technology. In the past ten years, many advances have
been achieved, but the challenges remain. In this
doctoral work, several promising efficient
carbon-supported catalysts for Li-O2 batteries have been
synthesized as novel cathode catalysts and their
electrical performance have been investigated in detail.
These include MnO-carbon nanotube, graphitic
C3N4-graphene, and B4C nanowires-carbon nanotubes
composites. Meanwhile, onedimensional AgPd-Pd composite
porous nanotubes were also prepared by galvanic
replacement reaction and applied in rechargeable Li-O2
batteries. These porous nanotubes show favourable
rechargeability and excellent energy efficiency,
facilitating rapid O2 and electrolyte diffusion through
the nanotubes, as well as forming a continuous conductive
network throughout the whole energy conversion process.
In addition, the lack of stable electrolyte for Li-O2 is
another enormous challenge to be overcome. The properties
of formulated electrolytes are crucial for the
interfacial structure between the electrodes, O2 gas, and
non-aqueous electrolytes and accordingly govern the
performance of Li-O2 batteries. The most widely used
electrolytes for Li-O2 batteries are almost…

▼ Oxygen is one of the most important molecules in human beings. Our research is focused on how the human body can respond and adapt to the physiological challenge posed by a lack of oxygen. Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is one of the most important and considered the most effective water-soluble, chain-breaking antioxidant in human plasma, with the capacity to prevents damage by free radicals. This thesis presents four studies investigating the phenomenon of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) generation in the many different surgical conditions in the animal and in the human. Study one investigated the geometry and thermodynamic properties of vitamin C. Calculations were carried out at the restricted and unrestricted B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP/EPR-II levels for two conformers (1 and 2) of L-ascorbic acid and their respective oxidation products to monodehydroascorbates of ab-initio methods by Gaussian O3W package. Conformer 1, free radical properties are compared with previously published calculations in the gaseous and aqueous solution states and with experimental EPR values. Calculated molecular structures, EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy), the vibration spectral and energetic properties and all are reported including some proposed changes to previous EPR assignments. Conformer 2 of L-ascorbic acid is predicted to have lower energy than Conformer 1, under the method and basis sets used, by between 11 and 26 kJ mol-1 and is stabilised by internal hydrogen bonding. Relaxed potential energy surface (PES) scans were carried out for two proton transfer processes and relative energies of stable minima and barriers between them determined. Hydrogen transfer is predicted in two systems with favourable spatial arrangements of O–H and O groups for which relaxed potential energy surface scans are reported. Calculated vibrational wavenumber values are provided for selected C=C, C=O, C–H and O–H modes assigned to particular groups and significant calculated EPR hyperfine coupling constants (HCC) values for splitting by H(1) and C(13) for radical species are also reported. These calculations contribute to a better understanding of the complex role of L-ascorbic acid and its various oxidised, neutral, ionic and radical forms in biochemistry and medicine. Study two examined if vitamin C could ameliorate the damaging effects of I-R on myocardium and we postulated that the mechanism of vitamin C protection against iii I-R-induced cell death involved quenching of ROS. In the vitamin C group after 5 min of reperfusion a significant, sudden increase of diastolic pressure in the heart was noted and reached a maximum of 77 mmHg after 12 min of reperfusion and then gradually decreased to 51 mmHg after 60 min of reperfusion period but was quicker than in Control group reaching 37 mmHg by the end of the reperfusion period. The level of A·− (ascorbate free radicals) sudden and massive increased at the time of reperfusion in the Vitamin C group. This increase was associated with poor mechanical function in hearts…

▼ For the last several years drugs based on monoclonal antibodies have been manufactured using Chinese Hamster Ovaries (CHO) cells by the bio-pharmaceutical industries to treat cancer and other autoimmune diseases. Several control strategies are used to increase the productivity and efficiency in bio-pharmaceutical manufacturing. Cell growth can be controlled by adjusting the feed rate based on
oxygen uptake rate of the cells in the bioreactor. Determining the volumetric mass transfer coefficient and
oxygen saturation concentration is vital in correctly estimating
oxygen uptake rate. Thus, a robust and efficient method to determine volumetric mass transfer coefficient and
oxygen saturation concentration, which uses common industrial sensors, is desired.
In this thesis, a new method to determine volumetric mass transfer coefficient is proposed and implemented on simulated and laboratory experiments. Using this method, volumetric mass transfer coefficient can be calculated independently of
oxygen saturation concentration. The fitting parameters required to estimate volumetric mass transfer coefficients are estimated using only the estimated
oxygen mole ratio of input gas, the measured
oxygen mole ratio of the off-gas and the dissolved
oxygen concentration in the bioreactor. A modified version of Savitzky-Golay filtering is used to determine the change in
oxygen concentration in the bioreactor liquid. Another algorithm is used to reduce the variations between estimated OUR (<i> OUR </i>) and <i>OUR
linfit</i> signal to estimate the
oxygen saturation concentration in the liquid. Finally, both these signals are used to estimate final OUR signal.
The performance of these algorithms were validated by simulated experiments and lab experiments. A Simulink model was used to simulate bioreactor experiments and the values obtained after implementing the algorithm on simulated experiment data were compared with known values from the Simulink model to verify algorithm accuracy. High accuracy was obtained in all the simulated experiments even in presence of noise. The variation and noise in estimated OUR was significantly reduced when these algorithms were employed. The algorithm could also be used in cases when there were sudden gas mix changes by estimating OUR using parameters estimated just prior to the gas mix change. The algorithm was applied to laboratory experiments and it showed consistent results over short periods of time. Since the
oxygen saturation concentration is important information required to estimate OUR and control the growth rate of cells, these algorithms have the potential of proving useful in implementing robust controller to increase the productivity and efficiency of the monoclonal antibody manufacturing process using CHO cells.

▼ ZnO thin film is a suitable material for the phosphor layer of green emission of the electroluminescence (EL) device. Therefore, the luminescence mechanism of green emission of ZnO thin film is a key issue to be investigated.
In this thesis, ZnO thin films are deposited on SiO2/Si substrates using sol-gel method and sputtering technology, and then post-annealed by a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process under various annealing temperatures (200â~900â) and atmospheres (vacuum, ambient atmosphere and
oxygen). The physical and photoluminescence (PL) characteristics were first discussed. Secondly, the relationship between the chemical composition and the PL properties were also investigated to figure out the dominant luminescent center of ZnO thin film. Finally, ZnO thin film was applied as the phosphor layer of AC thin film EL device and the characteristics were discussed.
According to the experimental results of ZnO thin film prepared using sol-gel method and RTA process, the XRD patterns show a preferred (002) orientation after annealing. The grain size became larger with the increasing annealing temperature. From PL measurement, two ultraviolet (UV) luminescence bands were obtained, and the intensity became stronger when the annealing temperature was increased. The strongest UV light emission appeared at annealing temperature of 900â in
oxygen. The X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) demonstrated that a more stoichiometric ZnO thin film was obtained upon annealing in
oxygen and more excitons were generated from the radiative recombination carriers consistently, and resulted in the strong UV emission. However, no green emission was obtained from ZnO thin film prepared by sol-gel method.
The XRD patterns also exit an excellent preferred (002) orientation of ZnO thin film deposited using sputtering and RTA process. The grain size of ZnO thin film annealed at 200â~500â increased with the increasing annealing temperature, and then exhibited a melting state with the temperature of 600â~700â. A large and complete grain was observed at the temperature of 900â. The PL spectrum illustrated that a stronger UV emission intensity appeared at annealing temperature of 500â. On the other hand, the green light emission could be obtained as ZnO films were annealed above 500â and reached a maximum intensity at 900â. Based on the XPS analysis, the O1s peak of ZnO film revealed that the concentration of
oxygen vacancy increased with the annealing temperature from 600â to 900â under an ambient atmosphere. The PL results demonstrated that the intensity of green light emission at 523nm also increased with temperature. Under various annealing atmospheres, the analyses of PL indicated that only one emission peak (523nm) was obtained, indicating that only one class of defect was responsible for the green luminescence. The green light emission was strongest and the concentration of
oxygen vacancies was highest when the ZnO film was annealed in ambient atmosphere at 900â.
According to the experimental results manifested above, room temperature…

▼ Three stalagmites, JSD 01, JSD 02, and L12, were collected from Libo county in the southern Guizhou provence. JSD 01 and JSD 02 are 14cm long stalagmites from Golden Lion Cave and L12 is a 7.1cm long stalagmite from Dragon Spring Cave. Subsamples were drilled along the central axis for JSD 01V while subsamples of JSD 01H were obtained along the horizontal axis. Subsamples were analyzed for carbon and
oxygen stable isotopes. The age determination for stalagmites were done by U-Th dating. The JSD 01 dates range from 93,700 to 95,200 yr B.P.; the JSD 02 dates are from 87,900 to 88,200 yr B.P.. The L12 dates are from 750 to 9,560 yr B.P..
The stalagmite record from Golden Lion Cave is correspondent to the marine isotope stage 5 (MIS 5) in age. The δ18O values of stalagmite JSD 01 record in MIS 5c are ranging from -6.58‰ to -5.17‰ ; δ13C values are from -9.19‰ to -6.84‰. Stalagmite JSD 01H records are ranging from -8.11‰ to -5.7‰ for δ18O and from -9.67‰ to -2.46‰ for δ13C. The δ18O values for stalagmite JSD 02 record in MIS 5c are from -8.15‰ to -7.12 ‰ and are from -9.09‰ to -5.19‰ for δ13C. The results indicate a warm and wet climate prevailing during MIS 5c and MIS 5b in Guizhou. An intensification of summer mosoon would increase in precipitation and vegetation above the cave. Result from JSD record shows data obtained from the horizontal axis may be younger in age than vertical axis in terms of sampling direction.
The stalagmite L12 contains two sections: (1) Dates range from 700 to 2,400 yr B.P. between top and 35mm: the δ18O values are ranging from
-8.23‰ to -7.07‰ while δ13C values are ranging from -11.61‰ to -6.98 ‰; (2) The δ18O values are ranging from -10.52‰ to -7.54‰ and δ13C values are from -10.75‰ to -6.98‰ between 35mm and 71mm. Results suggest a warm and wet climate prevailing during 9,000-9,600, with lighter δ18O values reflecting a strong summer monsoon. A decline of summer monsoon occurred around 9,000 yr B.P. as shown by a sharp increase in the δ18O. This sudden climatic change might lead to a decrease in vegetation and soil loss above the cave, resulting in the cease growth of the stalagmite. Around 2,400 yr B.P. the growth of stalagmite was resumed. The lighter δ13C values and heavier δ18O values represent a cooler and drier climate in late Holocene. After ~1,000 yr BP, a deforestation event occurred in the area probably which was induced by human activity.

▼ Abstract
Dissolved organic matters are important photosensitizer for the photochemical reactions in natural water. In this study, the photochemical reactions sensitized by seawater were collected from Kaoshiung harbor and coastal areas. The steady-state concentrations of singlet
oxygen [1O2]ss were determined by using furfuryl alcohol as a trapping agent. PNAP-PYR actinometer were used to measure the integrated intensity incident on the sample during sunlight irradiation. The objectives of this study are :
ï¼1ï¼ Measure the mean [1O2]ss of seawater in the Kaoshiung sea area.
ï¼2ï¼ Test the correlation between TOC and [1O2]ss
ï¼3ï¼ Test the correlation between UV-VIS A370 and [1O2]ss
ï¼4ï¼ Test the correlation between fluorescence and [1O2]ss
According to the experimental results, we have found that sunlight of different seasons have quite an influence to [1O2]ss. Dissolved organic matters play an important role in photochemical reactions in natural waters although the results show non-significant correlation between dissolved organic matters and [1O2]ss. Then we use SPSS to calculate the correlation of [1O2]ss and TOCãUV-VIS A370ãfluorescence. Only UV-VIS A370 and [1O2]ss is apparently correlated ï¼Pï¼0.05ï¼. We suggest that [1O2]ss can be estimated via the following equation [1O2]ssÃ1015 ï¼ 11.81A370ï¼6.49. On November 2000, the mean [1O2]ss of seawater observed in Da-Lin-Pu outfall area and Tso-Ying outfall area are 6.91 Ã 10-16 M and 2.13 Ã 10-16 M respectively.

▼ Oxygen sensing mechanisms are important for organisms to adapt their survival strategy when faced with low
oxygen conditions. These survival strategies are morphological, physiological and biochemical adaptations to the lack or reduction in
oxygen.
Oxygen is a major electron acceptor that is needed for the aerobic metabolism. For plants during floods,
oxygen diffuses slower in water than in air, creating an
oxygen deficit. This results in the plant’s biochemical adaptation from an aerobic to an anaerobic respiration. This is achieved through the glycolysis and the fermentation pathway. During flooding, ethylene also accumulates and serves as a signal to activate hypoxic responsive-genes. Other organisms such as bacteria, fungi and animals have
oxygen sensing mechanisms. In these mechanisms, the heme protein plays a central role as an
oxygen sensor. For plants, the group VII of ethylene response factor (ERF) transcription factors seems to have an important role as a mediator for
oxygen sensing. The group VII of ERF transcription factors are regulated through the N-end rule proteolysis pathway. The N-end rule pathway has an
oxygen dependent sequence which would be responsible for
oxygen sensing. The conserved sequence of the N-end rule pathway is responsible for the degradation of the ERF under aerobic conditions. When there is no more
oxygen available, the oxidation of cysteine in the N-end rule pathway cannot occur. This leads to the inhibition of the degradation pathway. The research around direct
oxygen sensing mechanisms for plants still needs to be completed, but I believe that recent studies are close to find the answer behind the ‘unknown’ factor that is behind the activation and regulation group VII of ERF transcription factors and/or N-end rule proteolysis pathway.

▼ PQQ is an exogenous, tricyclic, quino-cofactor for a number of bacterial dehydrogenase reaction. It has also been proposed to play a role as a bacterial vitamin. The following work has defined 144 bacteria species that contain the machinery to form PQQ. PQQ formation is based on a conserved operon, pqqABCDEF, in Klebsiella pneumoniae. The last enzymatic step in the PQQ biogenesis pathway is catalyzed by PqqC and involves a ring closure and eight electron oxidation of the substrate AHQQ. Wild type (WT) PqqC and various active site mutants have been studied. The asparagine and alanine mutations at the histidine 84 position have supported the published mechanism and shown a new role for H84 as an active site acid. This was shown by anaerobic reactions, where H84A was capable of proceeding to a quinol intermediate anaerobically, but the more conservative H84N mutation was not. Aerobically, both mutations were able to form PQQ. Recent X-ray investigations of PqqC variants Y175F (with PQQ bound), H154S (with PQQ bound) and a R179S/Y175S double mutant (with AHQQ bound) show that the enzyme is alternately in a closed, open and open conformation, respectively. Though R179S/Y175S does not form the characteristic closed conformation seen in the WT-PQQ structure, it is still able to inititate a ring closure with AHQQ. Using apo-glucose dehydrogenase to assay for PQQ production, none of the mutants are capable of product formation. Spectrophotometric assays give insight into the incomplete reactions being catalyzed by the mutants. Active site variants Y175F, H154N and R179S form a quinoid intermediate anaerobically. Y175S is capable of reaction further and forms a quinol intermediate anaerobically after forming a quinoid. Y175F, H154N and R179S require O2 to proceed to the quinol intermediate. None of the mutants preclude substrate/product binding. Indicating that in all cases, oxidative chemistry is impeded because no mutants can react fully to form quinone even in the presence of O2. The residues targeted are proposed to form a proteinaceous core O2 binding structure that also contributes to O2 activation.

▼ Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are chemically reactive molecules that contain oxygen. ROS are naturally generated as a byproduct during mitochondrial oxidative metabolism as well as by cellular responses to a variety of inflammatory stimuli. Intracellularly formed ROS plays an important role in maintaining homeostasis and in cell signaling but, ROS are challenging to quantify. Phagocytic cells such as macrophages may produce H2O2 during the action of bacterial engulfment. Here UV-Vis versus LC-ESI-MS detection methods for an enzyme-linked, cellular assay of H2O2 production in cultured macrophages are compared. In the presence of Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP), Amplex Red (AR) reacts with H2O2 in a 1:1 stoichiometry to produce the red-fluorescent oxidation product resorufin that can be measured by UV/Vis at an absorbance of 570 nm or by LC-ESI-MS at 214 m/z [M+H]+. RAW 264.7 macrophages were stimulated by microscopic foreign particles, with the addition of 0.1mM of Amplex Red substrate and 10 ng/mL of HRP to the cellular media to enzymatically detect H2O2 production. The oxidation product resorufin can be detected by the colorimetric method as low as 50 pmol while liquid chromatography with electrospray ionization and mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) was able to detect as little as 0.2 pmol in vitro. Thus, it was possible to measure low levels of H2O2 released by cells using an enzyme coupled cellular assay with LC-ESI-MS.
