Porapak Q, Chromosorb 102, and Tenax GC, three porous
polymers commonly used as adsorbents in headspace analyses were
investigated. The retention times of various low-boiling compounds
relative to water were measured on the collection columns to determine
which compounds would be lost during the water removal step
employed after sampling...
Few Americans are aware of the tremendous
recreation potentials along the banks of the Intracoastal
Waterway, mainly because they are unaware of
the existence and extent of the toll-free Waterway.
This study attempts to categorize and locate some of
the attractions that can be explored along the two
thousand miles...
Flavor profiles of canned and frozen whole kernel sweet corn were
obtained by entraining the volatile compounds on Porapak 0 traps and
by subsequent analysis on temperature-programed, 500' by 0.03" ID
capillary columns (SF-96 or Carbowax 20M). Identification was based
on GC/MS data, retention indices (I[subscript E]'s) and retention times....
Tree and shrub revegetation on mining spoils of an abandoned
gold placer mine at Sterling Creek, Jackson County, Oregon were examined.
Point-centered quarter and line-intercept methods of vegetation analysis
were used to compile species lists and determine species density, frequency,
mean basal area and dominance. A relation exists between the...
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a
labyrinthine dysfunction, with and without visual cues, on underwater
submergence. The subjects utilized were fifteen bilateral
neural deaf males, nine conductive deaf males and sixteen hearing
males. Following a series of pre-tests, administered to determine
balancing difficulties, each...
