I. The Effect of Artificial Photoperiod on Eating Behavior and Other
Behavioral Observations of Dairy Cows.
Twenty-eight cows were randomly assigned to a dairy photoperiod of
18 h light and 6 h darkness or to continuous light and observed 1 d each
month from December 1981 to February 19.82. Lighting...

A sensitive technique for the determination of As(III) and As{V)
at μ/L and sub-μg/L concentrations from a single sample aliquot
has been developed. This technique is based on the hydride
generation atomic absorption (HGAA) spectrophotometry. The hydrides
of the arsenic species are generated in a reaction vessel by mixing
the...
The variable length, six-electrode plasma source for atomic
emission spectroscopy described here is operated from three
compact, simple, and inexpensive direct current power supplies. The
vertical arcs formed between the three electrode pairs completely
entrain the sample and are typically operated at 40 V and 20 A.
Three concentric quartz...
The interference of sulfide with the colorimetric determination of
nitrite, by the method of Bendschneider and Robinson (1952), can be
eliminated by passing the samples through a cationic exchange resin,
Dowex 50W-X8, in the zinc form. This resin retains sulfide without
affecting nitrite and the technique can be applied to...
The Enterobacter are often found in the feces of man and
other warm blooded animals but have limited use as indicators
of fecal contamination of foods and water since they are also
often found as natural flora of non-fecal environments such
as water and plants. This study proposes a method...
A study of the effects of structural modification at
the alpha position of ethyl 2-bromocarboxylates on their
rates of addition to two alkene pairs was undertaken. In
the competition between 3-propoxypropene and 1-octene at
70°, a 37% increase in selectivity was observed in going
from carboxylates generating primary radicals to...
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 scope of this project was to build a high
energy impulse generator to be used for educational
and research purposes, such as small scale modeling
of lightning and switching surges or small scale
simulation of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP).
A one-stage impulse generator was designed to
deliver a voltage...
