Lactobacilli are microorganisms with many applications in the
fermented food and dairy industries. In addition to the actual
fermentation of food products, lactobacilli are involved in the
metabolic breakdown of lactose in dairy products, enabling a large
population of lactose-intolerant humans to ingest milk. Lactobacilli
are also used as health...
The focus of this research is to design and develop a microcomputer-based information management and production planning system for a discrete parts manufacturing facility. The information management module is based on relational database concepts. This information is used by the scheduling module to generate initial production schedules based on manufacturing...
The vascular system of Aplysia californica is a simple visceromotor system with three main arteries innervated by a small pool of identified neurons. I used this system to
study the functions of neuropeptide transmitters and their actions on neural and muscle tissues. A central finding of this study is that...
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of theological
education on philosophy of human nature among Sunday school teachers in
the Church of the Nazarene. Research materials consisted of Wrightsman's
Philosophy of Human Nature scale and a demographic questionnaire

Oregon's endemic freshwater fishes. is restricted to the
Willamette and Umpqua rivers and their tributaries.
Specimens from the two rivers have traditionally been
considered the same species. The goal of this study was to
re-examine that assumption and determine if the Willamette

own destiny?, or, "Am I only a victim of circumstance, a speck of dust in the universe's
whirlwind of fate?"
Each view is...
The electrochemistry of cadmium at a Reticulated Vitreous
Carbon (RVC) electrode has been studied to determine the suitability of
RVC as a working electrode for the electrochemical preconcentration of
cadmium in the corrosive environment of zirconium dissolved in
hydrofluoric acid.
The electrochemistry in this investigation deals with deposition
of solid...
