The formation of cytosine hydroperoxide was detected in
aqueous cytosine solutions irradiated with Co-60 γ-rays at pH 2.
The nucleotide of cytosine, cytidylic acid, forms a hydroperoxide
which was detected in neutral solution. The stability of the hydroperoxides of cytosine, thymine, and their nucleotides was found to
be a function...
Contracting nucleolar vacuoles are a general and consistent
feature of somatic tobacco cells growing in microcultures. Nucleolar
vacuoles were studied in cells from callus tissues of two
single-cell clones, H-196 and H-239, of hybrid tobacco (Nicotiana
tabacum X N. glutinosa). Vacuoles periodically contracted either
completely or incompletely, apparently releasing a...
The aim of the study was to explore the possibility of relationships
existing between social aspiration and the use of clothing for
prestige among lower middle class working women.
A review of the literature dealing with aspirations among
various groups indicated that more aspiring individuals generally
used clothing for prestige...
Application of automatic production techniques to the fabrication
of semiconductor devices has been somewhat limited by the requirements
of conventional alloying techniques. These alloying techniques
require an excessive amount of individual handling.
This thesis investigates the feasibility of applying percussive
welding to the fabrication of metal-semiconductor contacts, as a
solution...
The relationship between sea level and wind stress in a region of
known upwelling was studied for an eleven-month period during
1933-34.
Sea level data, obtained from observations taken by the Coast and
Geodetic Survey, were processed to remove astronomic tidal constituents
and inverted barometer effect. Regression analysis was used...
Studies of some components of test weight in Soft White wheat
revealed distinct subclass differences. Wheat kernels of Soft White
more completely occupied a given volume than did kernels of White
Club. The Soft White kernels were larger and had a higher density
than the White Club kernels. Because of...
