The purpose of this study has been to develop
insight into the aims and goals of public library service by
considering one particular type of library activity--work
with adult groups.
To determine the influence of historical events on
such service, consideration has been given to group work of
the past...
Seven species of microorganisms indigenous to fish were inoculated into sterile fish muscle, obtained from Sebastodes alutus and Sebastalobus alascanus, and the production of total volatile acids (TVA) and total volatile bases (TVB) was determined during storage at 1 C. No production of TVA and TVB was noted in sterile...
Substrate and inhibitor specificities have been used to classify
esterases. The purpose of this work was to determine the substrate
and inhibitor specificities of the esterases in an aquous extract of
lyophilyzed carrots.
Esterase activity was determined manometrically at 37°C. The
optimum pH of the carrot esterases with several substrates...
This report is concerned with environmental and animal internal temperatures in the intertidal zone at low tide. Daily sea surface temperatures at Agate Beach, Ore., are compared to weekly measurements made near-by. Greater range and fluctuations are revealed by daily measurements. Data are provided on animal internal temperatures at low...
PART I. A chemical examination of the materials toxic to fish in
kraft pulp mill wastes has been made as part of a water pollution
study. Thirty gallons of "foul condensate" from a typical kraft mill
gave 14 g of organic material when extracted with methylene chloride,
and an additional...
Plecoptera were collected from four sampling stations selected
to represent a range of conditions on Oak Creek, a small woodland
stream originating in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range. The
elevation of Site I was 700 ft. while the lowest site was located at 225
ft. Monthly benthos samples...
This investigation was conducted to differentiate the esterases
in a water extract of freeze-dried green beans on the basis of inhibitor
and substrate specificities. An attempt was made to classify
these esterases according to the criteria used for animal esterases.
Activity of the esterases was measured manometrically using
the Gilson...
Although esterases have been reported in peas, their properties
have not been studied. The purpose of this investigation was to
determine the substrate and inhibitor specificity of the esterases
present in a water extract of lyophilized peas, and to determine if
pea esterases could be classified according to the criteria...
Four species of sponge from the coasts of Oregon and Washington
were studied and dissected for inhabitants and associates.
All four species differed in texture, composition, and habitat, and
likewise, the populations of associates of each species differed,
even when samples of two of these species were found adjacent to...
