Adsorption of hexavalent and trivalent chromium to a clayey silt soil : batch kinetic and equilibrium studies

Creator:: Bean, Gregory R.
Abstract:: Chromium, an element of widespread use, is toxic in some forms. Improper disposal of waste chromium products has resulted in contamination of many sites throughout the United States, including the United Chrome Products Superfund site in Corvallis, Oregon. A better understanding of chromium chemistry is needed to facilitate the remediation...

An analysis of risk management strategies for southern Alberta feedlots

Creator:: Freeze, Brian S.
Abstract:: Feedlot finishing of beef cattle in Southern Alberta involves income risk due to the variability of prices of feeders, feed and finished cattle. Several strategies are available to reduce this risk, including hedging of cattle on feed, participation in a Federal- Provincial government and producer established income stabilization program for...

Two studies concerning rare earth elements : I. Rare earth DTPA complexes as estuarine hydrological tracers : II. Rare earth elemental concentrations in some Pacific Northwest rivers

Creator:: Keasler, Kenneth M.
Abstract:: Two studies were conducted involving rare earth elements. In the first study, the use of rare earth diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) complexes as stable actiable tracers, a method of stable-isotope tracing with post-sampling neutron activation analysis, was explored. The persistence of rare earth DTPA complexes in estuarine waters was measured in...

The production of surimi from Pacific whiting (Merluccius productus) and evaluation of kamaboko gels

Creator:: Chang-Lee, Maria Virginia
Abstract:: Yield, proximate composition, and proteolytic activity were determined in each unit operation during production of surimi from Pacific whiting. Preliminary studies involved the addition of protein adjuncts such as egg white (EW), whey protein concentrate (WPC), and soy protein isolate (SPI), at different levels, to kamaboko gels in order to...

Habitat use and densities of cavity-nesting birds in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Nelson, S. Kim
Abstract:: I studied abundance patterns and habitat use of eight cavitynesting bird species in the Coast Ranges of Western Oregon during the spring and summer of 1985 and 1986. Three age classes of unmanaged Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) stands were selected for study: young (40-80 yrs), mature (80-200 yrs), and old-growth (>200...

Characterization of factors affecting pectinmethylesterase activity in cucumber fruit

Creator:: Turk, Farzaneh
Abstract:: Pectinmethylesterase (PME) activity in fresh cucumber fruit was determined. The effects of several cationic species, temperature, pH, and acetic acid on the activity of cucumber PME was investigated. The efficacy of blanching, infiltration with CaCl₂ or acetic acid, and fermentation with 0 and 40 mM CaCl₂ on inhibition of cucumber...
