The restoration of rivers and streams should be based on a
strong conceptual framework. Streams are developing systems. As
such, streams exhibit temporal behaviors that change with changing
stream environments. Underlying the dynamic development of streams is
potential capacity. Streams express this capacity as an array of
habitats over time...
The purpose of this study was to explore possible differences
in value patterns of students residing in four types of university living
environments--residence halls, Greek houses, cooperatives, and off campus
dwellings. The Rokeach Value Survey was utilized as the
major measurement tool for identification of the value patterns of
students....
The susceptibility of milk to copper-induced or accelerated off-flavors is well known. Other animal products, including meats have not been so extensively studied. In this study different species of animals (pigs, calves, lambs and rabbits) were fed on normal rations with and without supplements of copper sulfate. During the course...
An investigation was undertaken to determine whether
potassium is indeed necessary for the in vivo synthesis of a
specific protein. The effects of univalent cations on the
inductive formation of nitrate reductase and on the level of
activity of representative non-adaptive enzyme are presented.
Cultures of Neurospora crassa were grown...
H₂-uptake positive strains (122 DES and SR) and H₂-uptake negative strains SR2 and SR3 of Rhizobium japonicum were examined for ribulosebisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase and H₂-uptake activities during growth conditions which induced formation of the hydrogenase system. The rate of ¹⁴CO₂ uptake by hydrogenase-induced cells was about six times greater in...
The rotating flighted cylinder (RFC) was investigated
as a potential wastewater treatment deVice. A RFC is a
rigid tube with a helically-wound fin attached to the interior
surface and operates by flowing wastewater through
the tube as it rotates.
An 8-inch and 24-inch
diameter RFC was tested for
solids-liquid
separation,...
This study was undertaken to compile a comprehensive
review of the literature and to gain a better understanding
of the host-parasite relationship in corynebacterial kidney
disease of salmonid fishes. An indirect fluorescent antibody
technique was developed which allowed differentiation
of intra- and extracellular bacteria. This technique was
used in combination...
