The inhibitory effect of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) upon the
metabolism of glucose and fructose by proliferating cells of
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (OSU strain 2) has been examined. By
the use of radiotracer methods, particularly radiorespirometric
techniques, it has been possible to demonstrate that the rate of
hexose assimilation by yeast cells is...
Partial reactions of photosynthesis were examined in the wild
type strain and six photosynthetic mutants (8, 11, 26, 40, 50, a') of
Scenedesmus obliquus, strain D₃. A reproducible procedure for the
isolation of active chloroplast fragments from Scenedesmus was
developed. Several chloroplast reactions were examined, as well
as two in...
It is well -known that a topology for a space can be described in
terms of neighborhood systems, closed sets, closure operator or convergence
as well as open sets. In fact, it is also possible to describe
a topology in terms of interior operator or boundary operator. This
paper is...
Malonaldehyde, a very reactive member of the homologous
series of dialdehydes, is associated with the autoxidative deterioration
of lipids. Its measurement, in autoxidized lipid systems is an
expression of the extent of oxidation, in lipids. Malonaldehyde lends
itself well to such determinations because of the sensitivity and
specificity of its...
The purpose of this study was to investigate factors which
may limit linear programming as a predictive tool. It has specifically centered attention on components of linear programming
models and characteristics of farm operators which create differences
between actual and linear programmed farm organizations.
Twenty farms in Wasco County, Oregon,...
The differential effect of solar radiation on seedling establishment under a forest stand was studied to develop a basis for controlling species composition in the regenerating stand. The study was carried out on the Oregon Coast where current silvicultural practice is to clearcut mature stands and establish Sitka spruce (Picea...
