Several methods for estimation of the potential
shelf-life of pasteurized fluid milk products were evaluated
for their efficacy in this investigation. These methods
were evaluated and compared to sensory, biochemical and
bacteriological indices through a series of experiments
conducted on different brands of commercially pasteurized
fluid milk. The methods evaluated...
The effect of reducing sodium chloride in Cheddar cheese was
studied. Milled curd from a split-lot was salted at selected NaCl
concentrations and analyzed through aging by sensory and rheological
tests. Estimation of differences in compositional analysis, lactic
acid populations, degree of proteolysis, water activity, and pH were
also determined....
Heat resistant sporeforming psychrotrophic bacteria were
isolated from raw milk samples from 59 Grade A farms in Oregon.
Forty-nine of the 59 (83%) raw milk samples in this survey
contained sporeforming psychrotrophic bacteria; isolates from
twenty-four (40%) of the samples exhibited proteolytic properties. Populations of sporeforming psychrotrophic bacteria ranged
from...
The Ataspaca prospect is in the Cordillera Occidental, 45 km northwest of Tacna, Peru. Epizonal intrusions satellitic to the Caplina- Ataspaca pluton were emplaced 41 m.y. ago into limestones of the Lower Jurassic Pelado Formation along the northeast-trending Chucchuco fault system. Depths of emplacement ranged from 4.5 to 6.0 km....
Dyphylline is an analog of theophylline and the latter
is the most popular member of the methylxanthine family in
use for the treatment of asthma. Although dyphylline is
devoid of some problems associated with theophylline, a
reported short half-life has made it's clinical usefulness
limited. To avoid this problem a...
The purpose of this study was to determine if the preferences in
clothing fabrics and preferences in home furnishing fabrics are
similar or different in color, design size, and line. The
relationships of age, education, and training in color and design to
agreement of clothing fabrics and home furnishing fabrics...
The primary purpose of the study was to examine

among the residents. Based on the furniture arrangements
that encourage social interaction, recommendations were
made for the placement of furniture in the lounges of
institutions for...
The purpose of this research was to evaluate the
