Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (libs): an innovative tool for studying bacteria
… rapidly determining the elemental composition of samples with minimal or no sample preparation. In this dissertation, I will describe the benefits of using LIBS for the rapid discrimination and identification of bacteria (both pathogenic and non-pathogenic) based on the relative concentration of …

Utilizing Haplotypes For Sensitive Snp Array-Based Discovery of Somatic Chromosomal Mutations
… levels of contaminating normal cells in tumor samples, which limit the fraction of cells carrying informative mutations. The method presented here is the first method to utilize population-based haplotype estimates to discover low-frequency somatic kilobase- to megabase-size CN alterations and …

Effects of Coarse Aggregate Morphological Characteristics on Mechanical Performance of Stone Matrix Asphalt
… performances of stone matrix asphalt (SMA) mixtures constituted; (3) investigate the relationship between the uncompacted void content of coarse aggregates and morphological characteristics. To achieve the first research objective, a Fourier Transform Interferometry (FTI) system was adopted …

Andean sediment response to natural and anthropogenic changes at the catchment scale
… land under natural vegetation. All source and mixture samples were analysed using Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (WD XRF) to produce geochemical fingerprints. Following this, the geochemical fingerprints were used alongside the MixSIAR unmixing model to apportion sediment sources for …

Spectral fingerprinting
… For the sediment fingerprinting approach, soil samples were collected from potential sediment sources within the Isábena catchment, a meso-scale basin in the central Spanish Pyrenees. Undisturbed samples of the upper soil layer were measured in situ using an ASD spectroradiometer and …
