Changes in the federal farm program, in rainfall pattern and quantity, and
increased incidence of herbicide resistant weeds and diseases have generated
increased interest in spring grains in the Pacific Northwest. However, spring grains
have traditionally been treated as minor crops in this region, thus little research has
been done...
The variation in fatty acid composition between the "bound" and
"free" lipid in stored anchovy meal was determined using gas-liquid
chromatographic analysis. A model system of fresh anchovy oil on
powdered lactalbumin was also studied to determine the changes in
extractability and fatty acid composition which occur during oxidation.
All...
Background: Alcohol is a nonessential nutrient widely consumed throughout the world. Chronic alcohol abuse is associated with numerous adverse skeletal effects. However, prior to this study, the effects of alcohol abuse on intracortical bone remodeling in an animal model had not been investigated. Reduced intracortical bone remodeling could impair repair...

Pasteurization radiation offers a new means of extending the
refrigerated storage life of foods. This procedure avoids many of
the undesirable changes which result when sterilization radiation is
used and still eliminates most of the spoilage organisms.
Shrimp was treated with 5 ppm chlortetracycline and subjected
to pasteurization levels of...
The biological preparation of aflatoxins was accomplished by
culturing the mold Aspergillus flavus on various media. Aflatoxin
was isolated by chloroform extraction of the culture, and purified
by column fractionation and crystallization. Rice, wheat, soya bean,
peanut and YES media were found to give high yields of aflatoxin. It
was...
Malonaldehyde, a very reactive member of the homologous
series of dialdehydes, is associated with the autoxidative deterioration
of lipids. Its measurement, in autoxidized lipid systems is an
expression of the extent of oxidation, in lipids. Malonaldehyde lends
itself well to such determinations because of the sensitivity and
specificity of its...
