This study was designed to determine the survival of Vibrio
parahaemolyticus in salted oysters as prepared in Korea. Three
levels of salt concentration were included; 3.0%, 6.8%, and 10.6%
of the weight of the raw oysters. Two methods were used to inoculate
the products, surface-inoculation and injection into the oysters,...
The history of entomopathogenic nematology is briefly reviewed. Topic selections include early descriptions of members
of Steinernema and Heterorhabditis, how only morphology was originally used to distinguish between the species; descriptions of the
symbiotic bacteria and elucidating their role in the nematode- insect complex, including antibiotic properties, phase variants, and...
Remote-access computer file serials, often referred to simply as electronic serials, possess characteristics that challenge our definition of the term “serial” and our ability to catalog them according to the established cataloging code. These challenges are reflected in the library science literature, where cataloging and indexing issues have generated thoughtful...
Interest in the distribution of Clostridium botulinum type E
was heightened by the sudden outbreak of human botulism from
smoked whitefish chubs and canned tuna fish in 1963. The question
arose as to how widely the organism is distributed among fish
and shellfish in the Northwest and what potential hazard...
Gamma irradiation inactivation kinetics were studied using
fifteen organisms naturally contaminating seafoods. Survival curves
for seven Salmonella, three Shigella, two Streptococcus species and
a Staphylococcus, Escherichia and Proteus species were determined
using Hartsell's broth and fresh oysters. Also, the Shigella species
and one species of Streptococcus, Escherichia and Proteus were...
