The infrared absorption spectra in the out-of-plane
bending (v₂) region of potassium nitrate were studied for
three phases. Several types of sampled were used: nujol
mulls, fused samples, and N¹⁴-N¹⁵ isotopic mixtures. The
existence of three of the reported polymorphic phases was
confirmed by the spectra. The transitions between phase...
The study of the obstructive factor by Hawkes (11) showed a relation
between the obstructive factor and velocity using a continuous
method. Later, Bowers and Hawkes (12) developed a similar method with
some improvements in the apparatus and found out that the obstructive
factor was not flow dependent. This study...
The effects of different levels of copper in the diet on growth
rates, blood and liver copper concentrations, hemoglobin levels,
and cytochrome c oxidase activities were determined in the cotton
rat. The response of the cotton rat to different levels of copper was
analagous to that of the common laboratory...
Diffusion of short chain n-alkanes was found to be faster in the
polydimethylsilicone elastomer SE-30 than in the polydimethylsilicone
oil SF-96-2000. The opposite was true for the longer chain n-alkanes
suggesting that choice of stationary phase for gas chromatography
would depend on the chain length of sample components. The dependence...
