(2012-05-11)Intellectual Property Rights Governance (IPRG) is fast becoming an important part of both education and enterprise-based activities (i.e. multimedia-based student portfolios, library learning commons, media assets ... -
Ice nucleating active bacteria reduce the cold-hardiness of the freeze-intolerant Colorado potato beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).
In laboratory experiments, a freeze-dried concentrated form of the icenucleating active bacteria, Pseudomonas syringae, was used to decrease the supercooling capacity of field-collected diapausing Colorado potato beetles, ... -
Ice nuclei in soil compromise cold hardiness of hatchling painted turtles, Chrysemys picta.
Hatchling painted turtles (Chrysemys picta) commonly overwinter within their natal nests and survive exposure to temperatures as low as -12 degrees C by supercooling. We report that the supercooling capacity of hatchling ... -
Ice-nucleating active bacteria decrease the cold-hardiness of stored grain insects.
This report provides further evidence that a freeze-dried, concentrated form of Pseudomonas syringae, an ice-nucleating active bacteria, reduces the cold tolerance of stored grain insect pests. Application of ice-nucleating ... -
Ideas for Action: Creating and Collaborating for Inclusive Teaching
The process of embedding anti-racist practices into library instruction is vitally important, especially as we and our students navigate ongoing systemic injustices at our institutions, in our communities, and on a national ... -
Identification and expression of a putative facilitative urea transporter in three species of true frogs (Ranidae): implications for terrestrial adaptation.
Urea transporters (UTs) help mediate the transmembrane movement of urea and therefore are likely important in amphibian osmoregulation. Although UTs contribute to urea reabsorption in anuran excretory organs, little is ... -
Identification of ice nucleating active Pseudomonas fluorescens strains for biological control of overwintering Colorado potato beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).
Laboratory studies were conducted to identify ice-nucleating active bacterial strains able to elevate the supercooling point, the temperature at which freezing is initiated in body fluids, of Colorado potato beetles, ... -
Identification of Urine Metabolic Biomarkers for Hypoxia-Induced Acute Kidney Injury Mouse Model
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) refers to the rapid decline of renal filtration and urine production due to functional and/or structural damage. Kidney damage is often due to sepsis, respiratory failure, heart failure, trauma, ... -

(2012-04-27)The concept of equality between men and women is a controversial and important subject for continued business and psychological research. This study aimed to gain greater insight into gender bias by surveying college ... -
Identifying subgroups of age and cohort effects in obesity prevalence
The obesity epidemic represents an important public health issue in the United States. Studying obesity trends across age groups over time helps to identify crucial relationships between the disease and medical treatment ... -
The identity of contemporary society:Digital age utopia
This is a futuristic, anti-heroic and pro-consumerist architectural dialog. My understanding of architecture is solely expressed through hypothetical project in this thesis in an attempt to reveal the reality of living ... -

Imagining democratic futures for public universities: Educational leadership against fatalism’s temptations
At current rates, almost all U.S. public universities could reach a point of zero state subsidy within the next fifty years. What is a public university without public funding? In this essay, Kathleen Knight Abowitz ... -
Impact of a Library Instruction Session on Bibliographies of Organic Chemistry Students
(2014-06-16)Students in Chemistry 254: Organic Chemistry for Majors were required to write a paper about an organic name reaction (a reaction named after the chemist who discovered it). Before turning in this assignment, students had ... -
The impact of general perceived self-efficacy on regret
The purpose of this study was to shed light on the relationship between perceived self-efficacy and regret. I measured regret by its two subcomponents, cognitive regret and affective regret . I hypothesized first that as ... -

Impact of Social Service Staffing on Nursing Home Quality and Resident Outcomes
Social service staff play a key role in nursing homes and are responsible for providing psychosocial services to residents and their families. This brief report highlights findings from a study that utilized national data ... -
The Impact of State Nursing Home Bed Relocation Policy in Ohio
As Ohio’s population aged and shifted across county lines, an imbalance in the supply of nursing home beds to 65+ population has occurred. For example, in 2008 the ratio of nursing home beds to 65+ population varied from ... -
Implementation of an Information Retrieval System (ANIRS) with Ranking and Browsing Capabilities
(1992-04-01)This report describes an implementation of a cluster based information retrieval system with statistical ranking facilities, ANIRS. ANIRS uses the vector space model to represent the document database. In this model, the ...
