The purpose of this study was to isolate and characterize any
segregants of the heterogenotes formed from sexduction by an F'
donor. Following the mating of F' W4520, carrying an F' gal₁⁺
gal₂⁺ factor, with W3350, a gal₁⁻ gal₂⁻ recipient, a number of
recombinant clones were picked and examined for...
A countercurrent, liquid-solids contactor was constructed,
operated and evaluated for a continuous ion-exchange operation.
The exchange of cupric and sodium ions between aqueous solutions
and Dowex 50W-X8 ion exchange resin was studied.
The countercurrent contactor consisted of two, three-inch
diameter columns with active sections ranging from one to four feet...
A new method for determining ion exchange equilibrium
data by liquid scintillation counting of the equilibrated solution
phase is described. This method has been applied to determine
equilibria between Dowex 50W X8, a commercial strong cation exchange
resin, and binary and ternary solution containing the varying combinations
of H⁺¹, Cs⁺¹,...
Experiments were carried out to purify and characterize the
galactosidase of the Streptococcus lactis 7962. Purification was
accomplished using standard procedures; however the lability of
the enzyme to numerous treatments limited the techniques that could
be used and the amount of active enzyme recovered. Gel filtration
revealed that the enzyme...
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%)....
This dissertation is concerned with the synagogue-affiliated
Jews of Portland, Oregon. Employing an elaborate questionnaire
this writer examined the ritual practices (home and synagogue) and
traditional beliefs of Judaism as practiced or accepted by the Orthodox,
Conservative, and Reform Jews of Portland and thereby attempted
to reach a conclusion whether...
Rapid acid production by lactic streptococci used in the manufacture of fermented dairy products is essential to the economy of the
industry and to the public health of consumers.
There remains to
developed, however, an adequate laboratory procedure to detect and
distinguish between slow and fast strains of these bacteria....
