The thermal decomposition of tungsten hexacarbonyl was
investigated in an apparatus which allowed a solid sample of the material
to be sealed into a preheated batch reactor. Because the reaction occurs
with an increase in the number of moles of gas, it was possible to monitor
the progress of the...
Evaluations of body form and measures of milk production were
recorded for 188 Holstein lactations and 77 Jersey lactations in the
Oregon State University Dairy Herds. Components of body form
included general appearance, dairy character, body capacity, and
mammary system and 34 sub-components of these four traits plus body
weight...
The entire human population is chronically exposed to various
contaminants, including lead and chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides.
Studies were undertaken to assess the effects of chronic exposure to
lead on the toxicities of two such pesticides, lindane and dieldrin.
Mice were given lead as the acetate in drinking water, at levels...
Bicyclo [6.1.0] non-4-ene was prepared by two routes; (1) reaction
of cis-cis-1, 5-cycloöctadiene with methylene iodide and zinc-copper
couple, (2) sodium-methanol reduction of 9, 9-dibromobicyclo-[6.1.0] non-4-ene. The bicyclononene was characterized by its infrared
spectrum, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum and common
physical properties. The olefin was hydrogenated to bicyclo [6.1.0] -...
A fluorescent dye, 1-dimethylaminonaphthalene-5-sulfonyl
chloride (dansyl chloride), was covalently bonded to polylysine. The
dansyl tagged polylysine was complexed to DNA by gradient dialysis.
The polarization and intensity of fluorescence of the dansyl and the
turbidity of the complex were measured as a function of salt concentration
for a variety of...
