The free amino acid content of the intracellular pools in higher
marine fungi was determined by thin-layer and gas-liquid chromatography.
The organisms investigated include:
Ascomycetes; Nais inornata, Leptosphaeria oraemaris, Corollospora
maritima, Haligena elaterophora, Halosphaeria mediosetigera, Halosphaeria
appendiculata, Halosphaeria quadriremis, Lignincola Laervis
and Remispora hamata, and Fungi Imperfecti; Zalerion maritimum and...
Since the isolation of the Oregon sockeye salmon virus (OSV) in
1958, extensive investigations have been undertaken to characterize
the properties of this virus. The results of these investigations
have indicated that OSV is a single-stranded RNA virus which contains
essential lipids and has a density of 1.16 gm/cm³ in...
School systems have an important responsibility to continuously
examine and review their educational programs to determine if the
programs satisfy the needs of the youth they serve. Systematically
collected data derived from former and present students can enable
the school system to appraise its effectiveness in fulfilling the aim

Selenium deficiency in rats results in increased carbon metabolism,
approaching twice the rate of selenium supplemented animals
(normal). This is also reflected in a 50 percent increase in lysosomal
enzyme activity in tissues of selenium deficient animals.
Isolation of rat liver lysosomes shows a 17 percent increase in
membrane thickness...
Pacific madrone, tanoak, and California black oak are the most economically promising native California hardwoods. Volume and value data indicate upward trends in growing stock levels and prices received for their products. These trends are likely to continue. They suggest research is particularly needed for: (1) seed fall and
regeneration,...
The potassium salts of a series of 1-vinylcycloalk-3-en-l-ols were found to undergo ring expanding [1, 3]-sigmatropic shifts at 25° when dissolved in hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) or 1, 2-dimethoxyethane (DME) with 18-crown-6. The yields and reaction rates were compared with those of the corresponding Siloxy-Cope ring expansions. These anionic cases showed about...
