A Covalent Modification Technique for Protein-Ligand Binding Analysis Using Mass Spectrometry-Based Proteomics Platforms
(2009)Currently there is a dearth of analytical techniques for studying protein-ligand interactions on the proteomic scale. Existing techniques, which rely on various calorimetry or spectroscopy methods, are limited in ... -
A randomized trial of supplemental parenteral nutrition in underweight and overweight critically ill patients: the TOP-UP pilot trial.
(Crit Care, 2017-06-09)BACKGROUND: Nutrition guidelines recommendations differ on the use of parenteral nutrition (PN), and existing clinical trial data are inconclusive. Our recent observational data show that amounts of energy/protein received ... -
Improved Function With Enhanced Protein Intake per Meal: A Pilot Study of Weight Reduction in Frail, Obese Older Adults.
(J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci, 2016-10)BACKGROUND: Obesity is a significant cause of functional limitations in older adults; yet, concerns that weight reduction could diminish muscle along with fat mass have impeded progress toward an intervention. Meal-based ... -
Multiphase, Multicomponent Systems: Divalent Ionic Surfactant Phases and Single-Particle Engineering of Protein and Polymer Glasses
(2011)This thesis presents an analysis of the material properties and phase behavior of divalent ionic surfactant salts, and protein and polymer glasses. There has been extensive interest in understanding the phase behavior of ... -
Self-Assembled Protein-Based Biomaterials with Tailorable Physical Properties
(2015)Soft biomaterials are used in a variety of applications such as scaffolds for cell growth and coatings for implants or transplants. We aim to create a protein hydrogel that will self-assemble upon the mixing of two different ... -
Tailoring nutrition therapy to illness and recovery.
(Crit Care, 2017-12-28)Without doubt, in medicine as in life, one size does not fit all. We do not administer the same drug or dose to every patient at all times, so why then would we live under the illusion that we should give the same nutrition ...
