UVB Radiation Affects the Quality of the Female Sexual Attractiveness Pheromone of the Red-Sided Garter Snake

Creator:

Vigeland, Anna E.

Abstract:

In this study, pheromone and skin lipid samples collected from red-sided garter snakes (Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis) were exposed directly to either full-spectrum light or full-spectrum plus UVB light. In addition, female and male snakes were exposed to daily doses of either full-spectrum or full-spectrum and UVB light, after which the...

Substitution of germanium for boron in suspension-cultured carrot cells

Creator:

Durst, Robert W.

Abstract:

Boron has been recognized since 1923 as an essential micronutrient for vascular plants, but its function is still not known. Many diverse roles have been proposed, but none of these has been definitively shown. Problems that have made the study of the function of boron difficult include, no useful radioisotope,...

Vacuum ultraviolet absorption studies of model sugar compounds

Creator:

Dickinson, Helen Rose

Abstract:

Vacuum ultraviolet absorption spectra of 13 model sugar compounds were measured in the energy range of 50 to 80 kK. The model sugars included three simple alcohols, four simple ethers, four cyclic alcohol-ether compounds, and two dioxanes. All spectra show transition bands in the energy region 50 to 65 kK....
