    Extraction and Characterization of Hyaluronic Acid and Collagen from Eggshell Membrane Waste: An Industrial Recycling Process

    Year: 2021, 2021
    Member of: Trent University Graduate Thesis Collection
    Name(s): Creator (cre): Stabler Ogawa, Jayme Larissa, Thesis advisor (ths): Vreugdenhil, Andrew J, Degree committee member (dgc): Wortis, Rachel, Degree committee member (dgc): Rizvi, Ghaus, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>Connecting academia to industry is one important way to advance towards meeting the United Nations (UN) Sustainability Goals (SDGs).1 Sustainability can be applied to all industrial sectors with the SDGs being implemented by 2030.2 This research contributes to the SDGs by investigating a way to remediate an industrial waste stream in the egg-breaking industry. If adopted, this would… more

    UV-Curable hybrid sol-gel materials: The development and application of a 3-methacryloxypropytrimethoxysilane-derived coating

    Year: 2021, 2021
    Member of: Trent University Graduate Thesis Collection
    Name(s): Creator (cre): Scotland, Kevin, Thesis advisor (ths): Vreugdenhil, Andrew J, Degree committee member (dgc): Zenkina, Olena, Degree committee member (dgc): Parnis, Mark, Degree committee member (dgc): Zelisko, Paul, Degree committee member (dgc): Atkinson, Bill, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>This thesis describes the synthesis, application and evaluation of a UV crosslinked 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane-derived coating formulation. This is a two-component sol-gel system with 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MaPTMS) and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). Herein we show that if we change the co-solvent required for solubilizing MaPTMS from the more common methanol and… more

    Frequency-time and polarization considerations in spectral-focusing-based CARS microscopy

    Year: 2021, 2021
    Member of: Trent University Graduate Thesis Collection
    Name(s): Creator (cre): Cole, Ryan, Thesis advisor (ths): Slepkov, Aaron D, Degree committee member (dgc): Atkinson, Bill, Degree committee member (dgc): Vreugdenhil, Andrew, Degree committee member (dgc): Tamblyn, Isaac, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>Spectral-focusing-based coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (SF-CARS) microscopy is a powerful imaging technique that involves temporally and spectrally stretching ultrashort laser pulses and controlling their frequency-time characteristics. However, a broader and more detailed understanding of the frequency-time characteristics of the laser pulses and signals involved, how they are… more
