The promise and perils of molecular combing
<p>Dynamic Molecular Combing (DMC) is a method of making visible single molecules of DNA. The method stretches the molecules, attaching them to a glass coverslip; labels them with an intercalating dye or fluorescent antibodies; and images the molecules with fluorescent microscopy. After combing, …

Establishing DNA combing to investigate DNA replication stress in vitro
… of replication complex assembly. Finally, DNA combing is established to measure replication parameters. Here we find that the replication fork progresses at 1.3kbp/min in mouse fibroblast cells, consistent with other studies, and quantify replication fork stalling by replication inhibitor …

Estimating antimalarial drug activity in vivo: an interdisciplinary approach combing novel experimental data with mathematical modelling
Malaria infections led to an estimated 627 000 deaths in 2020. Artemisinin-based combination therapies are the current first-line malaria treatments. However, it is urgent to develop better antimalarial because artemisinin-resistant parasites are spreading, and the international efforts to …

Promoting Alcoa Fjarðaál as a workplace
… After interviewing company representatives and combing through data, five recommendations were made to support initiatives to promote Alcoa as a workplace. All recommendations were made in the spirit of transparency.

Davidic references in the Book of Mormon as evidence against its historicity
… by presupposing its historic authenticity, then combing the text for evidence of literary elements that may suggest ancient Hebrew authorship. Chapter 2 surveys current Latter-day Saint scholarship and arguments for internal evidence in support of the historicity of the Book of Mormon. Chapter 3 …

An illuminated workspace for iterative design
… However, these tools lack a means of combing physical and digital representations in order to support the iterative design process. The illuminated workspace provides a self-contained design environment in which a number of physical, computational, statistical, and visual …

Birds, molecules, and evolutionary patterns among Africa's islands in the sky
Combing results from phylogenetic and population level studies suggests that climatic cycling has had a profound influence on montane bird speciation in Africa. The results from this thesis suggest that there is deep genetic divergence between many clades (8-12%) of montane passerine birds in …

Nanoparticle-chiral nematic liquid crystal composites
… Such a system can be created experimentally by combing magnetooptical nanoparticles with a chiral nematic liquid crystal. The fabrication of this material system was advanced through two distinct phases of research. The first phase seeks to produce magnetooptical yttrium iron garnet (YIG) …

Innovation Adoption: Adopting change management techniques to positively impact new product diffusion
… the market. Seven propositions were derived from combing consumer personality types and organizational change management. The propositions were challenged against successful and failed innovation adoption case studies for verification. Findings show that each of the seven propositions can …

La materia fibra de lana - no tejido - y su exploración hacia nuevas configuraciones para aplicaciones sustentables
… a waste of the industrial process of washing and combing the Wool, is not being currently used or taken advantage by the Wool producers. This fiber has the ability of felting and conform a not-knitted fabric from a really simple hand craft technology. This was the start point for the exploration …

Origin of Periclines in the Ozark Plateau, Missouri: A field and numerical modeling
… ultimately only serves to heighten the enigma. Combing the results of numerical models, a more realistic hypothesis is proposed to explain the occurrence of those localized folds. The result of numerical models implies a localized stress enhancement in the transpression zone and the basin and …

Double-stranded RNA uptake in Caenorhabditis elegans
… role for the TGN in environmental RNA uptake. By combing small RNA and transcriptome profiling with developmental studies I identified a novel role for systemic RNAi in worm morphology. A detailed phenotypical analysis ruled out a nutritional role for dsRNA uptake, implying that environmental RNA …

Assessment of damage to thermal protection systems due to micrometeoroid and orbital debris impacts
… resulting penetration depths from these impacts. Combing these two values gives the number of impacts that cause mission failure and the maximum allowable size and speed of impacting particles before mission failure. Results indicate that the critical depth is a strong function of the entry …
