Cin-Ty Lee oral history interview and transcript
No full textThis recording and transcript form part of a collection of oral history interviews conducted by the Chao Center for Asian Studies at Rice University. This collection includes audio recordings and transcripts of interviews with Asian Americans native to or living in Houston.Professor Cin-Ty Lee is a professor of geology in the Department of Earth, Environmental,
and Planetary Sciences at Rice University. Professor Lee was born in Taiwan, but quickly moved to
Riverside, California, a rural area with very few Asians at the time. He completed his undergraduate
studies at UC Berkely and following the footsteps of his father, became a geologist. He maintains his
interests in art and birdwatching and hopes to be a mentor to students on campus having had experiences
of discrimination
Ty Matson: Senior Recital, Trombone
No full textThis Senior Honors Project is entitled “Ty Matson: Senior Recital, Trombone.” The author of the project is Ty Matson. The Senior Honors Project was the preparation and performance of my senior trombone recital, with program notes to accompany the traditional program list of pieces. The trombone recital was comprised of seven pieces of varied styles, musical eras, and composers. The program notes that were distributed in addition to the program consisted of background information on the composers as well as the compositions themselves. The recital, not including intermission, lasted approximately 47 minutes

Accurate metabolic flux analysis through data reconciliation of isotope balance-based data
No full textVarious techniques and strategies have been developed for the identification of intracellular metabolic conditions, and among them, isotope balance-based flux analysis with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) has recently become popular. Even though isotope balance-based flux analysis allows a more accurate estimation of intracellular fluxes, its application has been restricted to relatively small metabolic systems because of the limited number of measurable metabolites. In this paper, a strategy for incorporating isotope balance-based flux data obtained for a small network into metabolic flux analysis was examined as a feasible alternative allowing more accurate quantification of intracellular flux distribution in a large metabolic system. To impose GUMS based data into a large metabolic network and obtain optimum flux distribution profile, data reconciliation procedure was applied. As a result, metabolic flux values of 308 intracellular reactions could be estimated from 29 GC/MS based fluxes with higher accuracy.This work was supported by Korean Systems Biology

Systems biotechnology for strain improvement
No full textVarious high-throughput experimental techniques are routinely used for generating large amounts of omics data. In parallel, in silico modelling and simulation approaches are being developed for quantitatively analyzing cellular metabolism at the systems level. Thus informative high-throughput analysis and predictive computational modelling or simulation can be combined to generate new knowledge through iterative modification of an in silico model and experimental design. On the basis of such global cellular information we can design cells that have improved metabolic properties for industrial applications. This article highlights the recent developments in these systems approaches, which we call systems biotechnology, and discusses future prospects.Our work described in this paper was supported by the Korean Systems

New Manufacturing Process for Flexible Printed Circuit Board (PCB) with Cu Conductive Lines of 5 μm pitch
No full textTy Cobb
Full text linkWas he the greatest ballplayer of all time? He thought so and told everyone who would and would not listen that he was. In the first voting for entrance into the Hall of Fame Ty Cobb outpolled all his rivals. Ernest Hemmingway thought him one of the greatest, but also a despicable human being. It is this latter view that dominates the portrayal of Ty Cobb by Tommy Lee Jones in this stunning and deeply disturbing film just released on home video
Influence of continuous aqueous phase on the preparation and stability of colloidal liquid aphrons
No full textColloidal Liquid Aphrons (CLAs) were prepared from various solvents such as nonpolar hydrocarbons, alcohols, and amines. The influence of surfactant type and concentration on CLA preparation were studied and maximum phase volume ratio (PVR: volume ratio of the dispersed solvent phase to the water phase) was also investigated. The CLA preparation from nonpolar hydrocarbons or alcohols was possible with a high PVR regardless of surfactant type. However, stable CLA preparation was possible using cationic or nonionic water-soluble surfactant in case of a basic solvent. Since solvent recovery is as important as selection of solvent in CLA-based process design, the stability of CLAs in a given dispersion was quantified from released solvent volume when CLAs broke up. The effect of surfactant types, concentrations, and solvent types were investigated under various continuous phase conditions. Equation of pseudo-first-order-reaction kinetics was found well to fit the data only when the CLA was made from kerosene or ionic strength of continuous phase was very low.This work was supported by RRC/NMR program of KOSEF in Kongju National University
