An evaluation of benzo(a)pyrene metabolism in an oyster (Ostrea edulis)-bacteria system

Creator:: Bunting, Diane Leigh
Abstract:: The overall objective of this research project was to evaluate the metabolism of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) by the European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis)-bacteria system. Individual oysters exist in nature as "systems" with commensal microorganisms and should be recognized as such when the metabolism of a specific environmental contaminant is being studied....

An autoradiographic study of cell renewal in a freshwater mussel, Margaritifera margaritifera, using high specific activity tritiated thymidine

Creator:: Tomasovic, Stephen Peter
Abstract:: High specific activity tritiated thymidine (40-60 Ci/mM) and autoradiographic techniques were used to study cell renewal systems in the freshwater mussel, Margaritifera margaritifera. Groups of mussels were injected with tritiated thymidine (1.0 [μ Ci/g) and then serially sacrificed. Tissues from selected areas of the body were routinely processed, and slides...

Effects of X- and gamma irradiation on the juvenile pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas

Creator:: Trenholm, Steve Ray
Abstract:: Two separate studies were conducted during this research project. Oysters were irradiated with 500 and 1000 rads and 5, 10, 20, 50, 75, 100, 150, and 200 krads in the first study in order to determine the effects of ionizing radiation on survival and growth rates. Two periods of high...

The effects of tritiated seawater on development of the goose barnacle Pollicipes polymerus

Creator:: Abbott, David Thomas
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of tritiated seawater (HTO) on selected developmental stages of the goose barnacle, Pollicipes polymerus. Barnacle embryos were cultured in Millipore cytology monitors with HTO concentrations of 0, 10⁻⁵, 10⁻³, 10⁻¹, and 10¹ μCi/ml. After 22 days, hatching was complete and...

Lamarck's approach to an understanding of man

Creator:: Dobson, Christopher Michael
Abstract:: Jean Baptiste Lamarck (1744-1829) is considered here in the context of the Enlightenment effort to develop a science of man. His Philosophie zoologique (1809) and the Systeme analytique (1820) are the two principal relevant works examined in depth to discover how he meant to base a science of man on...

The GEK signatures of lowest mode internal waves

Creator:: Lipparelli, Michael Arthur
Abstract:: Present GEK (Geomagnetic Electrokinetograph) theory is extended to include internal waves of the lowest mode. The predicted towed electrode GEK signal is determined to second-order for long-crested internal waves in a finite but deep ocean. The analysis includes the determination of GEK signatures for small amplitude and finite amplitude interfacial...

An assessment of rival British theories of biogeography, 1800-1859

Creator:: Kinch, Michael P.
Abstract:: At the beginning of the nineteenth century most theorizing British naturalists supported a Biblical account of the distribution of life which was based upon the notion that life had been dispersed from the resting place of the ark. This implied a relatively even dispersion of life about the Earth, but...

The visual response of the purple shore crab, Hemigrapsus nudus, to ionizing and non-ionizing radiation

Creator:: Jordan, Neil Michael
Abstract:: Bioelectric responses from the isolated eye of the purple shore crab were measured by the electroretinogram with stimulation by light from wavelengths of 250 to 800 nm, strontium-yttrium-90 beta radiation, 17.5 keV x-radiation, and 3-cm microwaves. Peak sensitivities to light stimulation were found at 350 and 500 nm. These peaks...

The influence of ionizing radiation, photoperiod, and environmental temperature on cell proliferation in the intestinal epithelium of the rough-skinned newt (Taricha granulosa)

Creator:: Filipy, R. E.
Abstract:: Kinetics of cell division in the intestinal epithelial proliferative cells (cell nests) of the rough-skinned newt, Taricha granulosa, were studied using tritiated thymidine autoradiography and the mitotic arresting properties of colcemid. Percent labeled mitoses (PLM) curves were drawn from the autoradiographic data from two separate experiments in which the newts...
