Signals from the R/V Langseth’s tuned airgun array were recorded on an array of 33 EarthScope FlexArray seismometers deployed in the Oregon Coast Range from 43.5° to 45°N as part of the 2012 Ridge2Trench experiment to image the structure of the Juan de Fuca plate. This segment of the Juan...
BaCuChF (Ch = S, Se, Te) materials are chalcogen-based transparent conductors with wide optical band gaps (2.9 – 3.5 eV) and a high concentration of free holes (10¹⁸ – 10²⁰ cm⁻³) caused by the presence of copper vacancies. Chalcogen vacancies compensate copper vacancies in these materials, setting the Fermi level...
Two lots of six White Leghorn male chickens were fed diets containing
7.3% linoleic acid and either .075% ethoxyquin (lot 1) or 32.4
mg/kg of added vitamin E (lot II) for 47 weeks both of which were
designated as positive controls. A third group (lot III) containing 30
males received...
In 1967, Doi et al. proposed the hypothesis that 'yellows type
diseases' are caused by mycoplasma. Since then more than 60
yellows diseases have been associated with mycoplasma-like bodies
(MLB) (Maramorosch, 1973). The majority of these associations are
based upon electron microscopic observations of mycoplasma-like
bodies in situ. However, little...
In experimentally exposed mice, the environmental contaminant 2,3,7,8 tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) produces significant suppression of adaptive immune responses at low doses. However, the underlying biochemical and cellular mechanisms of TCDD-induced immunotoxicity have remained elusive since the identification of these effects nearly 30 years ago. Antigen-presenting cells (APC) constitute various populations of...
