Studies were conducted under controlled conditions in order
to observe the resulting survival patterns in solid crabmeat of
Salmonella typhosa, Salmonella paratyphi B, and SaImonella wichita
following individual exposure to various doses of gamma radiation.
As shown in their survival curves, these species of Salmonella
exhibited in varying degrees a...
Disc gel electrophoresis of the vegatative cell -free extracts ofstrains of Clostridium botulinum types A, B, C, E, and F and therelated nontoxic group showed limited value as a means for identifyingthese closely related microorganisms, since separation,though not consistent in all cases, could only be based on the numberof protein...
Airfoil flow simulation tests were carried out in a 20-inch
diameter double layer circular electrolytic tank. Results of the
tests indicate that the tank very closely approximates ideal conditions.
The double layer circular electrolytic tank is shown to
generate a very large rectangular tank. Formulas were derived to
show that...
The absorption, translocation and metabolism of a new
herbicide, n-propyl-C¹⁴ N, N-di-n-propyl-thiolcarbamate (PDPC), were
studied in both peanut and soybean plants. These studies were
carried out on plants of different ages and treated at two rates of
application. The residue content of the plants was also determined
from germination to...
Experiments were performed to determine whether a direct
correlation exists between the growth rates of tall and dwarf peas
grown either in the light or in the dark and endogenous gibberellin
(GA) content. Three separate but related experimental approaches
were utilized: (1) the determination of possible qualitative and /or
quantitative...
An examination was made of some reactions involving a transfer
of carbon from boron to carbon. In the case of the reaction of
a C[subscript n] alkylorganoborane with dichlorocarbene the intermediate was
a C[subscript n]₊₁ chloroalkylorganoborane. Oxidation of this intermediate
yielded an homologous acid (33%) and the usual alcohol (66%)....
