This compilation of theses and dissertations (a part of the OSU Bibliographic Series) for the period 1970-1977 reflects this university's emphasis on research and graduate study. It may be viewed as an indicator of the contributions made to the state of Oregon through graduate study and research at Oregon State...
The purpose of this study was, first, to investigate whether there
is a vitamin B-6 requirement for carnitine synthesis and, second, to investigate
the effect of fasting on vitamin B-6 metabolism. An experimental
group of 72 rats (6 per group) were fed either a vitamin B-6 deficient
diet (-B6) (ad...

Effects of lactobacilli in enteric coated capsules
were studied in piglets (Chapter I). Lactobacillus
acidophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus isolated from a
commercial product were formulated in capsules, enteric
coated, and then given to both Escherichia coli-challenged
and unchallenged baby pigs. Decreased
incidence and severity of diarrhea, and decreased weight
deceleration...
Replication associated protein and enzyme activity levels increase as cells enter
S-phase of the cell cycle and diminish as cells leave S-phase. Accordingly, replication
associated functions decrease as myoblasts withdraw from the cell cycle to terminally
differentiate. In an effort to understand signals effecting growth associated expression
of genes, the...
A column which contains a series of three fluidized
beds for counter-current contacting of solid particles with
a gas stream has been studied. Successful, independent
control of solids holdup on each stage has been achieved by
manipulating the field of a magnetic distributor-downcomer
on each stage. Two methods to manipulate...
