Characterization of putative recognition components of echinoderm coelomic fluid: agglutinins in Strongylocentrotus purpuratus

Creator:: Pierce, Laura G.
Abstract:: Due to an interest in the evolutionary origins of vertebrate mechanisms of immunorecognition, researchers have frequently turned to deuterostome invertebrates as model organisms. The purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea), was selected for this study of putative immunorecognition molecules in a deuterostome invertebrate. Hemagglutinins, molecules which agglutinate red blood...

Immunological perspectives of a host-parasite system : studies on the humoral and cellular components of Biomphalaria glabrata, New World host for Schistosoma mansoni

Creator:: Boswell, Carl A.
Abstract:: The host snail Biomphalaria glabrata and the parasitic trematode Schistosoma mansoni are valuable subjects for studies evaluating and defining immunological parameters that determine the outcome of individual host-parasite encounters. In this thesis, both soluble and cellular components of the snail's hemolymph were examined to gain insight into the basis for...

Neural regulation of immunity in teleosts

Creator:: Flory, Craig M.
Abstract:: It has long been observed that stress can increase our susceptibility to infectious diseases and cancers. Recent experimental evidence suggests that this increased susceptibility is due to suppression of immunity. A variety of neuroendocrine products are released during periods of stress, and a large number of these are now known...

Bacterial clearance in the sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus

Creator:: Yui, Mary A.
Abstract:: Characteristics of bacterial clearance were investigated in the purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea). Primary clearance kinetics were determined for three bacteria, a marine Gram negative motile rod, a marine Gram positive non-motile rod, and a fresh water fish pathogen, Aeromonas salmonicida. Various doses of live bacteria were injected...

Kraft pulping of Douglas-fir with soluble anthraquinone

Creator:: Dutta, Tapas
Abstract:: Several additives have been used in research and on an industrial scale to improve the pulp yield and to increase the rate of delignification. One such additive is 1,4- dihydro- 9,10-dihydroxyanthracene (DDA), also called soluble anthraquinone. This chemical is widely used in Japan and some other countries, especially with the...

A hierarchical stream habitat classification system: development and demonstration

Creator:: Frissell, Christopher A.
Abstract:: Classification of Streams and stream habitats is useful for research involving establishment of monitoring stations, determining local impacts of land use practices, generalization from site-specific data, and assessment of basin-wide, cumulative impacts of human activities on streams and their biota. This thesis presents a framework for a hierarchical classification system,...

Mean fronts and frontogenesis near the Asian east coast

Creator:: Marlia, J. Christopher
Abstract:: The association of frontal formation, development, and movement with large scale baroclinity is well documented. This investigation deals with the mean large-scale baroclinic zones near the Asian East Coast for the last two weeks of February 1975. Two deep, large-scale baroclinic zones are found to be situated along the axis...

Thermally modulated biliary excretion of taurocholate in rainbow trout

Creator:: Kemp, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Biliary excretion of taurocholate in thermally acclimated rainbow trout was stimulated at higher environmental temperature (18 vs. 14 or 10° C)e Acute 4° C shifts in body temperature produced more pronounced changes in biliary excretion. Thermally modulated biliary excretion was negatively correlated with plasma half live of taurocholate. Absorption of...

Genetic diversity and interactions in populations of plants and pathogens

Creator:: Knott, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Two experiments involving interactions between wheat (Triticum aesitivium L.) cultivars and rust pathogens were investigated. One experiment evaluated the aggressiveness (measured by infection efficiency and latent period) of populations of Puccinia recondita Rob. when inoculated on the cultivar they were isolated from, their "own" cultivar, and when inoculated onto other...
