Improving the Delivery of Camptothecin through the Blood-Brain Barrier via Modulation of Paracellular Pathway using E-Cadherin Peptide
(University of Kansas, 2014-12-31)The successful treatments of brain tumors and many other brain disorders have been limited due to the presence of barricade from microvascular endothelium called the blood-brain barrier (BBB). It was estimated that over ... -
Synthetic Control and Bioconjugation of Magnetite Nanoparticles for the Development of an in vivo Glucose Sensor
(University of Kansas, 2014-08-31)In this work, an examination into the synthesis, functionalization, and utility of iron oxide nanoparticles was conducted for the development of an in vivo glucose biosensor based on the catalytic cycle of glucose oxidase ... -
PALLADIUM-CATALYZED DECARBOXYLATIVE ALLYLATIONS OF ESTER ENOLATE EQUIVALENTS AND PALLADIUM-CATALYZED CYCLIZATIONS VIA CO2 AND SILYL ACTIVATION
(University of Kansas, 2014-08-31)Palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative allylation (DcA) has received much attention as an alternative C-C bond formation method to traditional metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Among various nucleophilic partners that ... -

Solid State and Solution Characterization of Copper and Cobalt Complexes with Amide and Thioamide Ligands
(University of Kansas, 2012-12-31)Low molecular weight ligands have been extremely useful for mimicking active intermediates. While often times these low molecular weight compounds are synthesized with ligands that do not always fully mirror the active ... -
Synthesis of Densely Functionalized Cyclopropanes via Diastereoselective Nucleophilic Additions to in Situ Generated Cyclopropenes
(University of Kansas, 2013-12-31)This thesis is concerned with the development and application of methods for the diastereoselective synthesis of substituted cyclopropanes. The methodology described in this dissertation is based on the addition of ... -
Formamidine Reactions
(University of Kansas, 1913-05-15)This thesis represents work done in the organic chemistry research laboratory during the years 1911-1912 and 1912-1913. Many of the preparations were made by Dr. F. B. Dains and in all cases the work was under his close ... -
Development of an On-Animal Separation Based Sensor using On-line Microdialysis Sampling Coupled to Microchip Electrophoresis with Electrochemical Detection
(University of Kansas, 2014-05-31)Microdialysis is a sampling technique that can be employed for the continuous monitoring of compounds both in vivo and in vitro. The online-coupling of microdialysis to microchip electrophoresis provides an attractive ... -
Development of Microfluidic Devices Incorporating Electrochemical Detection
(University of Kansas, 2014-05-31)Neurological disorders affect millions of people worldwide every day. These disorders range from issues affecting mental health, like depression to degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The ... -
Identification and Modeling of Parameters that Influence Microdialysis Sampling in vitro and in vivo
(The University of Kansas, 1995-10-11)Microdialysis sampling has matured into a standard technique for sampling the rat brain in vivo. Microdialysis is beginning to be used for sampling from other tissues in laboratory animals. It has also been used in humans. ... -
Nanoscale Manipulation of Surfaces and Interfaces: Engineering Electrical Properties Through Nanofabrication
(University of Kansas, 2013-05-31)Nanotechnology interest and research has increased dramatically over the last decade, but there remain fundamental limitations and barriers to the fabrication of ever smaller devices. To overcome these limitations, new ... -
