William Keith Brooks (1848-1908) : a case study in morphology and the development of American biology

Creator:: Benson, Keith Rodney
Abstract:: The major historical studies that have examined American biology have emphasized the development of experimental biology at the end of the nineteenth century. In this characterization, the descriptive branch of biology has often been treated as less than important and, in several cases, as a hindrance in the application of...

Privacy-Sensitive Robotics

Creator:: Rueben, Matthew R.
Abstract:: This dissertation focuses on personal privacy in human-robot interaction, which we call "privacy-sensitive robotics." Our understanding of "privacy" is very broad, including not just information privacy but also physical, psychological, and social privacy. We begin by surveying the scholarly literature on privacy and talking about why it applies to interactions...

Transcriptional regulation of the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene

Creator:: Guo, Chunxiao
Abstract:: Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...

Mechanisms of uptake and some factors influencing the toxicity of 2-chloro-2', 6'-diethyl-N-(methoxymethyl) acetanilide (alachlor) for selected plant species

Creator:: Groenwold, Bareld Egge, 1939-
Abstract:: A number of studies with ¹⁴C-labeled 2-chloro-2', 6'-diethyl- N-(methoxymethyl) acetanilide (alachlor) were conducted to obtain information about the mechanisms of uptake of this herbicide. In other studies, technical alachlor as well as the emulsifiable concentrate formulation of the chemical were used to investigate the effect of several factors on the...

A comparative study of the factors relating to post high school educational pursuits of selected American Indians : some characteristics and self-perceptions

Creator:: Hathhorn, James Robert
Abstract:: A unique aspect of this study is that it involves an unusually large number of individuals of American Indian descent. The sample population was composed of those Indian members of the 1962 high school graduating class from a six-state area. The selected graduates came from local public, Bureau of Indian...

Early detection of weed resistance : pattern-thinking and rapid microcalorimetric assay

Creator:: Suwanagul, Duangporn
Abstract:: Weed resistance is usually diagnosed after a weed control practice has lost efficacy and weed populations begin to increase rapidly. Prediction and validation in the field at a very early stage of resistance development is a promising method for preventing an uncontrollable problem. Pattern-thinking helped individuals connect their experience of...

Influence of marine environment on age and size at maturity, growth, and abundance of chum salmon, Ohcorhynchus keta (Walbaum), from Olsen Creek, Prince William Sound, Alaska

Creator:: Helle, John H.
Abstract:: Effects of the marine environment on age and size at maturity, early marine growth, and abundance of chum salmon, Oncorhynchus keta, were studied at Olsen Creek during 1959-77. Chum salmon returned to Olsen Creek as predominately 3-, 4-, and 5-year fish; however, age composition varied from year to year. The...

The effects of actinomycin D on the primary and secondary immune responses induced in vitro

Creator:: Thompson, William Carl
Abstract:: In order to assess the importance of RNA synthesis in the induction and antibody-producing phases of immune responses, actinomycin D was used to inhibit the primary and secondary in vitro immune responses of mouse spleen cells against heterologous erythrocytes. The presence of actinomycin D (0.1 or 0.125 μg /ml) throughout...

Genetic diversity in coastal cutthroat trout and Dolly Varden in Prince William Sound, Alaska

Creator:: Griswold, Kitty E.
Abstract:: Genetic diversity of two salmonid species, Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) and coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki) in Prince William Sound, Alaska were examined at multiple spatial scales with three molecular markers. Pleistocene glaciers covered what is now Prince William Sound 8,000- 12,000 years ago and both species colonized the...
