In search of academic voice: the impact of instructional grouping configurations on English language learner academic language production

Brooks, Kathryn A. (Kansas State University, 2006)

This study utilized an ecobehaviorial approach to investigate the relationship between English language learner language use in middle school content area classrooms and instructional grouping configurations. The participants ...
In situ infared [i.e. infrared] studies of catalytic partial oxidation

Cao, Chundi (Kansas State University, 2008)

Catalytic partial oxidation (CPO) has received considerable interest recently both as a way to utilize remote natural gas resources and to provide H[subscript]2 for a fuel cell. Studies on the reactions at lower temperatures ...
In situ remediation of Pb/Zn contaminated materials: field- and molecular-scale investigations

Baker, Lucas R. (Kansas State University, 2008)

The bioavailability of Pb and Zn is linked to the solubility of solid phases and other soil chemical characteristics, which is associated with their environmental risk, suggesting that in situ stabilization of these elements ...
In vitro assessment on the ability of a novel lipopolysaccharide binding compound (EVK063) to inhibit cytokine production in LPS-stimulated equine peripheral blood mononuclear cells

Jones, Phillip D. (Kansas State University, 2009)

Objective: To assess the in vitro ability of a novel lipopolysaccharide binding compound (EVK063) to inhibit cytokine production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated equine peripheral blood mononuclear cells Animals: Eight ...
In vitro digestibility of starch in sorghum differing in endosperm hardness and flour particle size

Xu, Xiaoli (Kansas State University, 2008)

In vitro digestibility of starch in sorghum grains differing in endosperm hardness and flour particle size was assayed by an Englyst resistant starch (RS) method. The starch digestibility increased as the particle size of ...
In vitro effects of canine Wharton’s jelly mesenchymal stromal cells and nanoparticles on canine osteosarcoma D17 cell viability.

Reeds, Kimberly (Kansas State University, 2011)

Objectives – To isolate and maintain canine Wharton’s jelly mesenchymal stromal cells (WJMSCs) in culture, to determine the effects of micellar nanoparticles containing doxorubicin (DOX) on WJMSCs and canine osteosarcoma ...
In vitro elution of analgesic medications from an absorbable gelatin sponge

Baker, Steven Gerald (Kansas State University, 2011)

Objective: To compare the in vitro elution characteristics of six common analgesic medications from a commercially available absorbable gelatin sponge. Study Design: Experimental study. Methods: Gelatin sponges were ...
In-school vaccination clinic at Fort Riley Middle School methods and evaluation

Webb, Megan (2010)

Capstone field experience project with the Fort Riley Department of Public Health (FRPH). This project was two-fold. The first part of the project was to observe, assist with, and develop an understanding of the different ...
In-vessel composting model with multiple substrate and microorganism types

Woodford, Philip Bernard (Kansas State University, 2009)

This research provides a deterministic model of in-vessel composting, based on Monod’s growth kinetics, to mirror biological-mixture decomposition. Existing models predict temperature curves assuming a single temperature-range ...
Inbound wheat railcar loading optimization: an opportunity cost study for ConAgra Mills

Jordan, Erin (Kansas State University, 2012)

The objective of this thesis is to examine the opportunity cost, both financial and efficiency, of inbound railcars of wheat that are not optimally loaded and shipped to ConAgra Mills’ facilities. In performing an analysis ...
Incidence and severity of Arcanobacterium pyogenes injection site abscesses with needle and needle-free injection methods

Gerlach, Bryce Mark (Kansas State University, 2010)

Nursery age pigs (n=198) were used to evaluate the difference in the occurrence of injection site abscesses between needle-free jet injection and conventional needle-and-syringe injection systems. Pigs were fed for 21 d ...
Incidence and spread of insects from bucket elevator leg boots

Tilley, Dennis Ray (Kansas State University, 2013)

In commercial grain elevators and feed mills, the boot and pit areas contribute to commingling of insects with grain that moves through the elevator leg. A pilot-scale bucket elevator leg with a modified removable boot, ...
Incident-response monitoring technologies for aircraft-cabin air quality

Magoha, Paul W. (Kansas State University, 2012)

Poor air quality in commercial aircraft cabins can be caused by volatile organophosphorus (OP) compounds emitted from the jet engine bleed air system during smoke/fume incidents. Tri-cresyl phosphate (TCP), a common anti-wear ...
Inclusion of wet corn gluten feed with physically effective neutral detergent fiber and the resulting effects on production

Sullivan, Michelle Lea (Kansas State University, 2011)

Wet corn gluten feed (WCGF) is commonly included in lactation rations for dairy cattle. Research at Kansas State University has shown that increasing WCGF inclusion decreased ruminal pH. Lack of adequate particle size may ...
Inclusive Community Landscapes in Rural Midwestern Cities : A Design Proposal for Emporia, Kansas

Molaskey, Katherine (Kansas State University, 2013)

The landscape has the opportunity to commemorate new, dynamic cultural identities which are developing in rural cities throughout the Midwest. These communities are experiencing historic demographic changes as a result ...
Incorporating mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems into historic preservation projects - three case studies

Terry, Jason (Kansas State University, 2008)

Architectural engineers face many challenges in the design and implementation of mechanical, electrical, lighting, plumbing, and fire protection systems in buildings. Space and aesthetic coordination must be managed between ...
Incorporating new age technology into campus lighting

Matlack, Daniel W. (Kansas State University, 2009)

Sustainable design and green engineering practices have become a priority in the architectural design industry over the past few years. Energy codes and standards have become more stringent as energy costs rise and buildings ...
Incorporating seismic attribute variation into the pre-well placement workflow, a case study from Ness County, Kansas, USA

Abbas, Mazin Y. (Kansas State University, 2009)

3D seismic surveys have become the backbone of many exploration programs because of their high resolution and subsequent success for wildcat test wells. There are occasions when the predicted subsurface geology does not ...
Increased knowledge about floral preservatives influences customers’ perception of the quality and value of a floral arrangement purchase

Jenkins, Morgan (Kansas State University, 2010)

Despite extensive evidence that appropriate use of floral preservatives extends postharvest longevity of most fresh flowers, their use by traditional full-service florists has been observed to be highly variable. This ...
Increasing the effectiveness of messages promoting responsible undergraduate drinking: tailoring to personality and matching to context
