The objective of this study was to determine the internal consistency
rating for the Film Test for Understanding Behavior (FUB)
and the three subscales within the test. An estimation formula which
contrasts sums of squares generated from an analysis of variance
was used to compute the internal consistency reliability coefficients...
Interactions between paralytic shellfish poison (PSP) and
components of the butter clam (Saxidomus giganteus) were studied to
determine which component was involved in the binding and retention
of PSP by the butter clam, and to characterize the nature and
strength of the interaction. A simple and accurate assay for PSP...
Several approaches to the synthesis of methymycin were
investigated. Segment A (39), containing functionality corresponding
to C-9, 10, and 11 of methynolide was made in
six steps from propionaldehyde in an overall yield of 37%.
Oxidation of 34 with silver nitrate gave 35 which, upon hydroxylation
with hydrogen peroxide, gave...
