The leaf- cutter bee Megachile rotundata (Fabricius) is an important
alfalfa pollinator in western North America.
This study was designed to provide information on methods of
orientation used by M. rotundata in order to make recommendations
regarding the parameters within which adult nesting populations may
be relocated.
Preliminary studies suggest...
The unique flavor of high quality Swiss cheese is difficult to
reproduce in commercial market cheese. Swiss cheese flavor has
never been duplicated or thoroughly understood. New techniques and
advances in flavor research have enabled better definition and understanding
of food flavors. Therefore, it was desirable to make a detailed...
Numerous investigations have been made on the contribution of
butter cultures to the flavor of cultured cream butter, but production
of uniform cultured cream butter has not been possible in industry.
Therefore, it was desirable to investigate in detail the qualitative
and quantitative chemistry of the flavor of high quality...
The purpose of the study was to develop a schematic model
that would make motivation and learning theories more comprehensible
to beginning theory students by providing a common method of displaying
and integrating theories in such a way that they could claim
a mutual language and could be examined and...
An attempt was made to create a hormonal environment of the
uterus comparable to that near the time of natural laying and to
eliminate the effect of a hard-shelled egg on fertilization. Hens without
hard-shelled eggs in their uteri were injected with the posterior
pituitary hormones, oxytocin and arginine vasopressin,...
The immune system has been identified as a very sensitive target for the toxic effects of 2,3,7,S-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Exposure to TCDD has been shown to disrupt the generation of both cell-mediated and humoral T cell-dependent immunity in laboratory animals; however, the mechanism remains unknown. In this dissertation, the hypothesis is...
The investigation
of impurity effects on the properties of alkali
halide crystals has often been difficult because of the variation of procedures used in various experiments.
The purpose of this work is to
develop a self consistent method of measuring the IV dipole polarization properties of single crystals while eliminating...
Depleted species of rockfish (Sebastes spp.) from the Northeast Pacific experience high discard mortality due to "barotrauma," induced from the rapid change in pressure during capture. Research suggests rockfish have the potential to survive barotrauma if immediately recompressed, but the potential for long-term recovery is unknown. In this project, we...

Depleted species of rockfish (Sebastes spp.) from
This study investigated the effect of first aid instruction on
college students' attitudes toward safety. It evolved from previous
studies of the relationship between first aid and accidents in Canada
and the United Kingdom. These earlier studies were concerned with the
effect of first aid training on accident rates. The...
