The spectrophotometric titration of the tyrosine residues,
their reaction with N-acetylimidazole, and the effect of pH on the
thermally induced conformational transition of ribonuclease T₁ have
been investigated. The results of spectrophotometric titration in
0.20 M KCl/0.001 M sodium phosphate suggest that titration of the
tyrosine residues occurs in two...
Verticillium dahliae Kleb. incites a vascular wilt disease of
mints. Susceptible Mentha piperita L. , resistant M. crispa L.,
and intermediate hybrid 148 were used to study 1) the site of differential
resistance and 2) the role of polygalacturonase (PG) in the
disease syndrome.
Many more V. dahliae propagules were...
The vertical reference system being considered utilizes a two-degree-of-freedom gyroscope configured as a vertical gyro. Each
gimbal erection circuit forms a second-order feedback control system.
Gyros are susceptable to a number of error sources. In view
of the closed loop application being considered, all error sources are
of negligible consequence...
Sporadic outbreaks of diacetyl off-flavor in beer are a serious
economic problem to the brewing industry. Studies were carried out
in an attempt to improve the understanding of the problem and to experiment
with new ways of controlling this defect.
The Owades and Jakovac method of diacetyl determination as
modified...
The mathematical technique of overrelaxation is used here to speed the convergence of a numerical method for solving viscous, incompressible fluid flow problems. The method, called MAC, involves approximating the complete two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with analogous finite-difference equations. The MAC method was developed by the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory...
An improved procedure for the preparation of β-(3-cyclohexenyl) propionic acid from 4-vinylcyclohexene was developed. The
Friedel-Crafts cyclization of β-(3-(3-cyclohexenyl) propionyl chloride
with aluminum chloride was shown to give one bicyclic chlorine
containing ketone in 41% yield. This ketone was identified by a combination of spectral and chemical methods as a...
The approximation problem of network synthesis is considered
in four parts. First, the problem is identified. Second, the several
existing methods of solving this problem are briefly discussed. This
discussion is necessary because the well known methods have inherent
limitations if they are to be ultimately applied to the other...
Comparisons were made of the abilities of Streptococcus lactis,
Streptococcus cremoris and Streptococcus diacetilactis bacteriophages
to endure various laboratory isolation and storage treatments.
Neutralization of Cottage cheese whey containing phages offered no
survival advantage over unneutralized samples, refrigeration of
neutral and acid whey samples increased the survival of only the...
The use of bromoxynil (3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile)
to control broadleaf weeds in cereal crops has become widespread.
This herbicide has not always performed satisfactorily for reasons
which were not clearly evident.
The effects of temperature, light and humidity on the herbicidal
activity of bromoxynil on coast fiddleneck, Amsinckia intermedia,
were studied. Fiddleneck...

Controlled environment chamber and laboratory studies were
carried out to evaluate selectivity and chemodynamics of bromoxynil
(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile) in winter wheat (Triticum
aestivum L.) 'Nugaines', a tolerant species, and coast fiddleneck
(Amsinckia intermedia Fisch. & Mey), a susceptible species.
A comparison of ED₅₀ values, based upon reduction of whole
plant growth,...
The purpose of this study was to test a proposed procedure for
providing seniors in small high schools of Oregon with information
in regard to the private colleges and universities of the state. It included
the development of an audio-visual technique and its trial on
a sample group.
Scope and...
A preparative method for a new compound n-octadecylcycloazadi-boron (CAB), in high yield has been developed. CAB was isolated as
an intermediate in the octadecylamine-catalyzed hydrolysis of pentaborane.
The most probable structure of CAB can be regarded as a
derivative of the three membered ring cycloazadiboron with a
n-octadecyl group substituted...

A Cr₂0₃, and cellulose fibre mixture was used with cattle, in
three grazing and two semi-restricted experiments, to study the mode
of its excretion, the possibility of using it in a once-daily dosing and
grab-sample regime to estimate fecal output and in a field experiment
to test a hypothesis involving...
The purpose of this study was to compare the quality of data
obtained from individual oral and group written administration of a
classroom simulation test. The individual oral procedure involved
one group of subjects taking the simulator test individually and responding
orally, while the group written procedure involved another
group...
Phospholipids and cerebrosides of the normal chick sciatic
nerve were extracted by Folch procedures and separated with silica
gel thin-layer chromatography using various chloroform-methanol
solvents. The subsequent chemical assays were expressed as a function
of the developmental stages of the chick from 15 days of incubation
to 7 days after...
The presence of diacetyl in sufficient concentrations to cause
off-flavor in beer is a serious economic problem affecting the brewing
industry. Research was carried out in an attempt to provide an
industrially acceptable method for reducing diacetyl to safe levels
in beer, with additional applications to frozen concentrated orange
juice,...
The purposes of this study are:
1. To determine guidelines for producing 8mm continuous
loop films through the production of
loop films for home economics classes.
2, To show how the 8mm loop film as a visual technique
is suited to home economics, especially
to individualize instruction.

The system of partial differential equations which governs the
motion of a Newtonian fluid has been known for over a century. Yet,
due to the complexity of the equations, an analytical solution is known
only for a few simple geometries or a few special cases such as very
slow motion....
