The partitioning of body fluids in the Pacific hagfish was investigated
using several experimental techniques. Direct measurement
of the blood volume was obtained through the simultaneous use
of tagged red blood cells and plasma proteins labeled with Evan's
blue dye. Blood cells obtained from donor animals were incubated
with L-methionin-methyl-C¹⁴...
The zirconium-chromium phase diagram was investigated in the
region between 40% and 85% chromium. The ZrCr₂ intermetallic
compound which has been the source of some controversy was especially
considered. It was found that ZrCr₂ transforms from the low
temperature C-15 (MgCu₂, FCC) structure to the high temperature
C-14 (MgZn₂, HCP)...
