Making sense of Computer Supported Cooperative Work: A taxonomy of terminologyWard, Sylvia Ann, s.ward@cqu.edu.au January 2007 (has links)
There are four contributions of this research: 1) confirmation of inconsistent use of
terminology in the Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) research field;
2) the development of a hierarchical terminology technique that extends the idea of
cognitive mapping into a hierarchy of concepts and dictionary of related definitions;
3) a taxonomy of terminology showing the boundary of the CSCW research field;
and 4) a dictionary of definitions relating to the terminology in the taxonomy.
The investigation of prior research in this field found that there was a proliferation of
terms all relating to support of groups, and there was a proliferation of software and
systems that support groups. However, the terminology and definitions used by
researchers were found to be inconsistent, with some terms being defined differently,
but then used interchangeably. Inconsistency makes it difficult to determine what
technology is being used in the research and where a research study fits into the
research field.
Knowledge of any research field is mainly gained through reading published research
documents. This research analysed published documents in Computer Supported
Cooperative Work (CSCW) to determine the scope, structure and meaning of the
terminology used in this research field. The research resulted in a hierarchy of
terminology and a dictionary of definitions. Future research will determine the value
of these structures for new researchers, experienced researchers, and practitioners.
During the investigation of prior research no technique was identified to undertake
such a study. A hierarchical terminology technique (HTT), which is a form of
content analysis process, was developed to structure a hierarchy of concepts to
expose the relationships between terms. This technique includes terminology
identification, analysis and presentation to show the scope of a research field and to
present terminology and definitions to improve consistency. This technique can be
used in other fields of study.

Investigation of the photocatalytic lithographic deposition of metals in sealed microfluidic devices on TiO2 surfacesCastellana, Edward Thomas 15 May 2009 (has links)
The research presented within this dissertation explores the photocatalytic
deposition of metal carried out within sealed microfluidic channels. Micro scale
patterning of metals inside sealed microchannels is investigated as well as nanoscale
control over the surface morphology of the nanoparticles making up the patterns. This is
achieved by controlling solution conditions during deposition. Finally, the nanoparticle
patterns are used in fabricating a sensor device, which demonstrates the ability to
address multiple patches within a sealed channel with different surface chemistries.
Also presented here is the construction of the first epifluorescence/total internal
reflection macroscope. Its ability to carry out high numerical aperture imaging of large
arrays of solid supported phospholipid bilayers is explored. For this, three experiments
are carried out. First, imaging of a 63 element array where every other box contains a
different bilayer is preformed, demonstrating the ability to address large scale arrays by
hand. Next, a protein binding experiment is preformed using two different arrays of
increasing ligand density on the same chip. Finally, a two-dimensional array of mixed fluorescent dyes contained within solid supported lipid bilayers is imaged illustrating the
ability of the instrument to acquire fluorescent resonance energy transfer data.
Additionally, the design and fabrication of an improved array chip and
addressing method is presented. Using this new array chip and addressing method in
conjunction with the epifluorescence/total internal reflection macroscope should provide
an efficient platform for high throughput screening of important biological processes
which occur at the surfaces of cell membranes.

SENSING AND SEPARATING BIOMOLECULES AT BIOINTERFACESJung, Hyunsook 2009 May 1900 (has links)
Ligand-receptor interactions are ubiquitous on cell membranes. Indeed, many
important physiological functions primarily involve such interactions. These include cell
signaling, pathogen binding, trafficking of lymphocytes, and the immune response.1-4
Therefore, studying ligand-receptor interactions at appropriate model membrane is of
importance for both proper understanding of biological functions and applications to
biosensors and bioseparations.
Supported lipid bilayers are composed of the same lipid molecules found in the
plasma cell membranes of living cells and possess the same two-dimensional fluidity as
cell membranes, making them capable of mimicking the cell surface. Moreover,
supported lipid bilayer-based in vitro assays are appealing because they require only
very small sample volumes and they are suitable for multiplexing and high-throughput
screening.
Recently, our laboratory has combined supported lipid bilayer-coated
microfluidic platforms with total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy to obtain
equilibrium dissociation constant data for protein-ligand interactions. Using this method, it was found that equilibrium dissociation constants of antibody-ligand interactions at
lipid membrane interfaces can be strongly affected by ligand lipophilicity and linker
length/structure. These results are described in Chapter III.
Monitoring protein-ligand interactions is routinely performed by fluorescently
labeling the proteins of interest. Protein labeling can, however, interfere with detection
measurements and be highly inconvenient to employ. To solve these problems, a simple
and highly sensitive technique for detection of protein-ligand binding at biointerfaces
has been developed. The method is based upon modulation of the interfacial pH when
the protein binds. This change is detected by pH-sensitive fluorescent dye molecules
embedded into the biointerface. The dye fluoresces strongly in the protonated state but
becomes inactive upon deprotonation. These results are demonstrated in Chapter IV.
Finally, the study of supported lipid bilayer-based electrophoresis is described in
Chapter V. Bilayer electrophoresis is an attractive alternative to gel electrophoresis for
the separation of membrane components such as lipids and membrane proteins because
it is run in native-like environments and avoids exposing the analytes of interest to harsh
chemicals. In this study, lipid rafts of varying size were used as separation matrices to
separate two similar lipids with different alkyl chains. Lipid rafts of varying size were
formed by a process controlled by varying treatment of the solid substrate. Depending on
which method was employed, the results showed that lipid raft size could be modulated
over five orders of magnitude. Moreover, it was found that the electrophoretic separation
of the two lipid components depended on the size of rafts in the bilayer matrix.
