New methods, sensors, and devices based on redox indicators were developed to
monitor redox conditions in anoxic and anaerobic laboratory systems and the subsurface
environment. The primary application was monitoring redox conditions
during the dechlorination of tetrachioroethene (PCE) to ethene (ETH) in packed
columns and microcosm bottles containing an enriched...
The purpose of this study was to determine how the popular writer Wilkie Collins used dress and appearance to bring to light concerns about mental illness in his 1859-60 sensation novel The Woman in White. The method of narrative analysis was used to complete this study. Data sheets were developed...
This thesis is the first third of a coming of age novel called i. In this selection the central character, Bea Bouvier, prepares to see her estranged mother on a cruise ship to the Bahamas. She hopes her parents will decide to reunite as a family, though it becomes increasingly...
Several aspects of the potent inhibition of bovine plasma amine
oxidase (PAO) by hydrazines were investigated by kinetic and preparative
means. The inhibition was classified as pseudo-irreversible
by the method of Ackerman and Potter (Proc. Soc. Exptl. Biol. Med.
72, 1 (1949), and was found to exhibit Zone B kinetic...
In this work we apply the finite temperature formulation of quantum
statistical mechanics to an analysis of the de Haas-van Alphen effect
in the quantum limit. A new expression is derived for the differential
magnetic susceptibility which clearly shows the individual contributions
of zero-temperature and non-zero temperature terms.
Interactions have...
During years 2005, 2006, and 2007 ewes of predominantly Polypay breeding were bred to either Dorper or Polypay rams for spring lambing. Ewes were assigned to single-sire mating groups based on age and genotype. Internally generated replacements were added to the flock for the 2007 lambing season and bred to...
A comparison of alternative pharmacy fee systems in a
community hospital was studied.
A retrospective analysis of FY 80 financial reports for
an 83 bed community hospital was used. This data base was used
to determine the economic impact of various pharmacy charging
systems in a typical community hospital and...
