Vitamin K₅, 4-amino-2-methyl-1-naphthol hydrochloride, a
water soluble analog of vitamin K has been shown to possess an antimicrobial
activity toward many bacteria, molds, and yeast. Much
of the work reported in the literature is on its use as a food preservative,
and it was the purpose of this study to...
Compounds belonging to the vitamin K family possess anti-hemorrhagic
property, and are used in treating patients suffering
from hypoprothrombinemia and obstructive jaundice. Some of
these compounds also exhibit marked antimicrobial activity toward
various microorganisms. Vitamin K₅, 4-amino-2-methyl-
1-naphthol hydrochloride, a water-soluble analog of vitamin K
has been shown to possess...
Several bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) strains, presumably
not transmissible by aphids, were studied to determine the biological
and environmental conditions which would possibly result in aphid
transmission of these strains. Investigations were made to study the
effect of different aphid rearing conditions on the transmission
frequency of BYMV. Also,...
Equilibrium data for the sucrose-potassium chloride-water
system were taken for Dowex 50 W X 4 resin at 90° C. The sugar
concentration was varied from 0% to 60% by weight, and the salt content,
from 0% to 6% by weight. Because shrinkage of the resin due
to salt absorption was...
The purpose of this investigation was to compare some of the
properties of a spore-forming mutant of Bacillus cereus 569R with
the wild type. The strains were grown under identical conditions in
liquid medium. The mutant, strain 45, was characterized with
respect to growth rate, pH changes in the medium,...
This thesis reports a portion of a general ecological study of
a stream under conditions of controlled flow and low levels of organic
enrichment. It is concerned with the effects of experimental variations
of light intensity and concentration of soluble organic enrichment
imposed on seasonal variations of temperature and total...
This research deals with individuals who have remained in independent
housing after retirement. The study attempted to describe
the physical characteristics of their housing, to study the stated satisfaction
and to study the relationship of the satisfaction with housing,
retirement, and income. Three main areas were considered: 1) a
description...
