Zinc-65 uptake by a bacterium isolated from Alder Slough, Columbia River Estuary

Creator:

Tonjes, Stephen Dodd

Abstract:

Bacteria were isolated from water at Alder Slough, Oregon. Of 15 isolates grown successfully in the medium employed, 100% showed measurable uptake of Zn-65. A growth curve was established for one isolate, a gram-negative rod designated AS-1. Increasing Zn-65 uptake was found generally to correspond with increasing growth of AS-1....

Determination of ⁶⁵Zn specific activity in various tissues of the California sea mussel, Mytilus californianus

Creator:

Larsen, Ingvar Lauren

Abstract:

The specific activity of ⁶⁵Zn (nanocuries ⁶⁵Zn/g total Zn) was determined in various organs of the common coastal mussel, Mytilus californianus Conrad, collected from six locations along the Pacific Coast. These organs included the gills, mantle, foot, reproductive organs, adductor muscle, and viscera. After ashing and dissolving with nitric acid...
