Isocitrate-NADP oxidoreductase activity in mitochondrial and
soluble fractions was determined for hearts, livers and brains of
chick embryos at various stages of development. One-half to two-thirds
of the activity in brain and liver homogenates is located in the
soluble fraction. Supernatant activity increases in these organs to a
maximum during...

transportation practices of manufacturers, processors, and carriers
in the Willamette Basin. Emphasis was placed on determining
the adequacies of current transport facilities and the direction of
future needs.

This study was conducted to discover whether two elementary
school districts, one committed to career education and the other not
committed, would show a significant difference in their response to
60 statements about career education and its practice. The study
was also designed to determine to what degree students and...
Objective- To determine the average flexion and standing extension measurements for each limb articulation of alpacas and llamas and determine if there was any significant difference between the species’ measurements. Animals- Alpacas (n=6) and llamas (n=6) of the Oregon State University teaching herd. Methods- Each articulation was measured four times...
Compacted aggregate trenches are a method of soil improvement that could be substituted for commonly used aggregate piers in certain geometrical arrangements of shallow foundations. However, this type of ground improvement has little research to support the understanding of their contribution to improved strength of an unimproved clay soil. This...
Herbicides were tested for the selective control of bentgrass in
Kentucky bluegrass turf under three levels of competition. Best control
in zero competition was obtained with a winter treatment of
bromacil at two pounds per acre. Under circumferential and direct
competition, best control was obtained with a summer and fall...
