  • Inheritance of maternal antibody concentration in the bovine neonate

    Creator:
    Muggli, Noelle Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    Serum samples were collected between 24 and 48 h of age from 408 Hereford calves of a selection experiment and from 200 Angus, Hereford and Red Poll calves of another experimental population (Germ Plasm Utilization project). Concentrations of Immunoglobulin G₁ (IgG₁) were determined by single radial immunodiffusion. Breed or selection...

  • Cytochrome P-450 monooxygenases in the mosquito, Culex pipiens

    Creator:
    Baldridge, Gerald D.
    Abstract:
    A sucrose density-gradient ultracentrifugation technique for obtaining microsomes has been developed. This technique has advantages over the classic differential centrifugation technique, in that it is faster, is better suited to work with small quantities of tissue, and offers the opportunity to work with a defined microsomal sub-cellular fraction, rather than...

  • B-Naphthoflavone induction and its effect on hepatic phospholipid metabolism in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri)

    Creator:
    Harris, Marcia Elaine
    Abstract:
    The induction of drug-metabolizing enzymes is a complex biochemical process manifested not only by increases in various cytochrome P-450 isozymes and related activities, but also by alterations in endoplasmic reticulum membranes. Little work has been done to examine how cytochrome P-450 inducing agents influence other cellular processes, such as phospholipid...

    Abstract:
    Thirty-seven Yorkshire sows were bred to one of six boars; 34 of the sows were verified pregnant at 42 d of gestation. These sows were innoculated with ovine serum albumin (OSA) in Freunds' complete adjuvant at 65 d and later given a second injection in Freunds.' incomplete adjuvant 93 d....

  • p-type transparent electronics

    Creator:
    Valencia, Melinda Marie
    Abstract:
    The objective of this thesis is to contribute to the development of p-type materials for transparent electronics applications. Thin films of ®-BaCu2S2, a p-type semi-transparent semiconductor, are fabricated and characterized. ®-BaCu2S2 has a transmittance of 60% to 80 % in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The mobility, conductivity,...

  • Biological control of purple loosestrife Lythrum salicaria by two chrysomelid beetles Galerucella pusilla and G. calmariensis

    Creator:
    Schooler, Shon
    Abstract:
    In the first part of this study we monitored the development of biological control of purple loosestrife Lythrum salicaria over a six-year period at Morgan Lake in western Oregon. In 1992, two beetles, Galerucella pusilla and G. calmariensis (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), were released to control the wetland weed at this test...

  • Using p-adic valuations to decrease computational error

    Creator:
    Limmer, Douglas J.
    Abstract:
    The standard way of representing numbers on computers gives rise to errors which increase as computations progress. Using p-adic valuations can reduce error accumulation. Valuation theory tells us that p-adic and standard valuations cannot be directly compared. The p-adic valuation can, however, be used in an indirect way. This gives...

  • Decomposition of di-p-toluenesulfonyl-hydrazones

    Creator:
    Bradway, Diane Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    Thermal decomposition of several di-p-toluenesulfonylhydrazones was studied. It was found that the carbene decomposition of tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanedione, di-p-toluenesulfonylhydrazone gave two products resulting from rearrangement. One was identified as 2,5-dimethyl-1,3,4-hexatriene. A tentative structure for the second was proposed. During the course of the study, a more convenient procedure for thermal decompositions was...
