Transition from classical methods to new strategies: Mechanistic evaluation of inhibitors against Mycobacterium tuberculosis shikimate kinase 

René Fuanta, Ngolui (2018-07-24)
Tuberculosis (TB) still stands as one of the leading causes of mortality resulting from an infectious agent. In part, this stems from the emergence of multidrug and extensive drug-resistant strains of tubercle bacilli, ...

Transition Fronts in Time Heterogeneous Bistable Equations with Nonlocal Dispersal: Existence, Regularity, Stability and Uniqueness 

Shen, Zhongwei (2015-04-30)
This dissertation is devoted to the existence, regularity, stability and uniqueness of transition fronts in nonlocal bistable equations in time heterogeneous media. Instead of existence, we start our study with ...

Transition Metal Manganese and Main Group Gallium Complexes as Catalysts for Alkene Epoxidation 

Jiang, Wenchan (2013-04-29)
Epoxides are important organic synthesis precursors and widely used in industry. Alkene epoxidation has been under extensive investigation over decades. Synthetic models have been established for catalytic epoxidations, ...

Transition Outcomes of Students with High Incidence Disabilities in Alabama

This study examined factors associated with the engagement of former students with high incidence disabilities in Alabama from rural and nonrural school systems. The investigation was conducted using 119 students with ...

Translating and Applying Recent Research on Military Family Life: A Preliminary Examination of the Efficacy of Mobile-Application-Based Professional Development for Military Human and Family Service Professionals 

Quichocho, Davina (2022-08-09)  ETD File Embargoed
A new mobile application (app) was developed by the Military REACH team. It delivered research-backed professional development content to practicing human and family service providers over the course of eight weeks. The ...

Translocating Captive Female White-tailed Deer & Training and Experience Increase Classification Accuracy in White-tailed Deer Camera Surveys 

Elliott, Jace (2022-01-06)
Thousands of captive white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) facilities exist across North America for the purpose of producing trophy-quality deer (i.e., exceptionally large-antlered). Many of these deer get marketed ...

Translocation of E. coli in Whole Muscle Non-Intact Beef 

Johns, Danny (2010-05-05)
Beef striploins were inoculated on the lean side with 8.2 to 10.1 log CFU/mL ranging from 6.4 to 7.2 mL of a nalidixic resistant Escherichia coli. Total CFU inoculated on striploins ranged from 1.12 X 109 to 9.10 X 1010. ...
