Six groups of goats were used in the study. These were the normal group (Saanen, French Alpine, and Nubian breeds), 1/4 pygmy group (first backcross to normal), 1/2 pygmy group (F1) 3/4 pygmy group (first backcross to pygmy), 7/8 pygmy group (second backcross to pygmy), and pygmy group0 The mean...
A computationally efficient algorithm has been developed for
determining exact or approximate solutions for large scale generalized
fixed charge problems. This algorithm is based on a relaxation
of the Benders decomposition procedure, combined with a linear
mixed integer programming (MIP) algorithm specifically designed to
solve the problem associated with Benders...
Fluorescence polarization measurements on beef liver glutamate
dehydrogenase conjugated with pyrene butyric acid demonstrate that
the association of the enzyme is adequately described by a reversible
indefinite association with a single equilibrium constant. The data
obtained with protein concentrations up to 0.7 mg/ml in 0.05 M
potassium phosphate, pH 7....
The genome composition and DNA base sequence homologies
of several diverse species of fish were examined. The fishes were
characterized from spectrophotometric studies of reassociation and
hybridization of their DNAs and from the thermal stabilities of hybrid
duplexes.
Spectrophotometric studies indicated that repeated sequences
comprise 35-40% of the genomes of...
Corn oil (CO) and Sterculic foetida oil (SFO) fed rats were
injected with [9, 10-methylene-¹⁴C]sterculic acid. Less than 1%
of the label was expired as carbon dioxide. The majority of the
label was excreted in the urine as short-chain dicarboxylic acids with
an intact cyclopropane ring. The major metabolites for...
Observations were made on silage pH, chemical composition and 24hr in vitro dry matter digestion (IVDMD) to evaluate effects of various additives ensiled with annual ryegrass straw. Additives were compared in factorial designed trials utilizing .95 1 glass jar silos. Selection of additives used in each subsequent trial was based...
A radix 2n non-restoring division algorithm is described. The
algorithm is designed to be compatible with hardware multiprecision
multiplication methods currectly used in high speed digital computers.
This enables the use of the same hardware, with only changes in
control logic, to be used to implement both multiplication and
division....
Purpose: This investigation was conducted to determine
whether or not teachers and students perceive the environmental press
of a secondary school differently, and whether or not teacher groups
and student groups vary in their perceptions.
Conceptual Framework: "Press" i s a construct which expresses
the assumption of elements in the...
