This paper describes the development of structural layer coefficients
for open graded asphalt emulsion surfacing layers which can be used with
the AASHO pavement design method, as modified by the U. S. Forest Service,
Region 6.
A field survey conducted to document the history, performance and
material characteristics of in-service...
Triplicate groups of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) fed six
diets; five based on fish protein concentrate (FPC) ranging in caloric
density from 4.36 to 6.19 kcal/g, and one based on vitamin free
casein with a caloric density of 5.26 kcal/g were evaluated with
respect to diet ingredient utilization. The parameters...
Selected parameters that affect crude toxin production in both
primary culture (growing cell culture) and resting culture were
examined during efforts to produce sufficient crude toxin for purification.
The parameters included carbohydrate and label source and
concentration, cell concentration, incubation time and temperature
and shaker speed. A higher yield of...
Dietary protein intake has been observed to influence the induction
of cancer in animals exposed to carcinogens, presumably by affecting the
activities of enzyme systems which metabolize them. One such carcinogen
is aflatoxin B₁ (AFB₁) a mold metabolite and frequent contaminant of
foodstuffs. Variations in the levels of dietary proteins...
