Chlordecone belongs to the class of persistent organochlorine pesticides that are remarkably resistant to environmental degradation. Even though their use was banned in the United States in 1978, these compounds can still be detected in both humans and wildlife throughout the world. Previous work has shown that the pretreatment of...
This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
Thirteen healthy adult males, ages 20-40, consuming self selected
diets, were given instructions to take one 500 mg tablet of ascorbic
acid three times a day with their meals for a period of ten weeks. The
effect of this daily supplementation on copper status was investigated.
An estimation made from...
A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
procedure using a LiChrosorb-NH₂ column and a eluant
buffer of 75:25 (v/v) of acetonitrile:0.05 M KH₂P0₄, pH
5.95, was developed for the successful separation and
determination of ascorbic and erythorbic acids in selected
food samples.
Application of the method, which is sensitive, rapid
and...
This thesis examines a range of generic influences in William Shakespeare's Richard II. By exploring the play's references to conflicting interpretations of history from different generic perspectives, I hope to advance a more nuanced reading of the play's dynamic staging of history. In Chapter One, I suggest that Richard II...
The Whale Cove Site, 35LNC60, is a shell midden, showing
occupations from 3010 B.P. to 330 B.P., spanning the Early and Late
Littoral Periods. Analysis of mammalian faunal remains, bone and
antler tools, lithics and discriptions of recovered shellfish
artifacts allows for chronological refinement of the previously
mentioned archeologically defined...
Object oriented programming features information hiding and encapsulation, meaning that 1) each object hides the the implementation details tram access from outside and only a set of methods (interface routines) are visible outside of the object, and 2) changes to the implementation of the object do not require changes to...
