We have previously shown that diets enriched with (n-3) fatty acids reduced the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) skin reaction to keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH) in geriatric-Beagles. Although the amount of α-tocopheryl acetate in diets of the previous study exceeded requirements, plasma α-tocopherol concentration was significantly lower in dogs fed the high...
The majority of database users interact with database systems by manipulating forms. This paper discusses the fundamental mechanisms underlying forms and considers how these mechanisms affect the behavior of forms. We then review the forms supported by commercial products. None of the packages reviewed provide all of the features that...
Crown gall can develop on grapevines wounded by freezing temperatures, mechanical damage or grafting. Increased demand for grape varieties grafted to phylloxera resistant rootstocks has led to increased incidence of crown gall at graft unions. Therefore a search for plant material that is resistant to crown gall has been undertaken....
This is a bibliography of doctoral dissertations and masters' theses in forestry and related topics issued during the period from July 1981 through June 1990. The colleges and universities included are all accredited by the Society of American Foresters. The actual listings were supplied by the individual institutions. Topics covered...
The Accreditation Board for Engineering Technology (ABET) requires that safety and health be integrated into an engineering curriculum in order to be accredited. These criteria for safety and health requirements, however, are not clearly defined. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has initiated Project SHAPE (Safety and...
The feasibility of managing codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), with mixtures
of Bacillus thuringiensis-based microbial and selected chemical insecticides was
studied under laboratory and field conditions. Joint actions (synergism, additivity and
antagonism) of these mixtures were determined for both egg and larval stages. Higher
rates of microbial control agents (MCAs),...
With increasing numbers ofpeople entering the geriatric years, long-term care facilities need to maximize nutrition services with decreasing malnutrition problem due to poor food intake. This research determines extent ofuse and perceived effectiveness of food intake enhancement strategies in long-term care. Obstacles to implementing strategies and training to teach staff...
Parent-characters in televised family programs set examples for viewers who may re-enact their behaviors with real children. This study attempts to determine how much "desirable" and "undesirable" behavior is modeled on these shows, and whether the behaviors are coupled with responses that might encourage or discourage viewer adoption of the...
The Queen Charlotte Fault system is a segment of the North America - Pacific
plate boundary. From 45 Ma - 5 Ma, plate motion has been primarily translational.
Since 5 Ma, transpression has been the dominant mode of interaction. The plate
boundary west of the Queen Charlotte Islands is characterized...
Recent concern over the potential environmental impact of highway construction
and repair materials on surface and ground waters has lead to extensive laboratory
screening and subsequent testing of a set of new materials and waste amended mixes. As
part of Phase II of a three-phase project for the National Cooperative...
