Background: Chronic heavy alcohol consumption is a risk factor for bone fracture.
Using a non-human primate model of voluntary alcohol self-administration, we have recently shown that alcohol consumption suppresses intracortical bone remodeling. The current study extends this investigation to asses the effect of alcohol consumption on cancellous bone mass, architecture,...
As the western United States continues to experience prolonged drought that is extending water deficits and threatening ecosystem resilience and socioeconomic systems, it will be vital to understand the relationship between water use and transport for proper water resource management. This is especially important to the agricultural areas of the...
Effects of lactobacilli in enteric coated capsules
were studied in piglets (Chapter I). Lactobacillus
acidophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus isolated from a
commercial product were formulated in capsules, enteric
coated, and then given to both Escherichia coli-challenged
and unchallenged baby pigs. Decreased
incidence and severity of diarrhea, and decreased weight
deceleration...
Coastal Oregon is deficient in quality construction aggregate.
There is, however, an abundance of lower quality, or marginal aggregate
available for construction purposes. The purpose of this report
is to develop techniques for upgrading marginal aggregates with portland
cement and methods for evaluating the relative performance of
these stabilized materials...
Met is a prognostic indicator of colorectal cancer patient survival. Therapies that target Met may therefore have beneficial outcomes in the clinic. Recently, EGCG was reported to suppress Met activation, although the mechanisms were not elucidated. HCT116 and HT29 human colon cancer cells were used to examine the relationships between...

Diode lasers have many advantages such as small size, high efficiency and small
angular dispersion of the collimated beam. However they also have some problems like
lack of frequency stability. They can not be tuned in wavelength. An external cavity can
solve these problems and decrease the laser linewidth.
To...
