An extensive theory of symmetric error control coding has been developed in the last few decades. The recently developed VLSI circuits, ROM, and RAM memories have given an impetus to the extension of error control coding to include asymmetric and unidirectional types of error control. The maximal numbers of unidirectional...
Three stations, at ∼80 m water depth on the Oregon shelf between 44.7°N and 43.9 N, were studied under hypoxic conditions in late spring and summer of 2009 to determine benthic oxygen consumption rates. Oxygen fluxes were derived from eddy correlation (EC) measurements made from an autonomous lander deployed for...
Three stations, at similar to ~80 m water depth on the Oregon shelf between 44.7 degrees N and 43.9 N, were studied under hypoxic conditions in late spring and summer of 2009 to determine benthic oxygen consumption rates. Oxygen fluxes were derived from eddy correlation (EC) measurements made from an...
This investigation was conducted to differentiate the esterases
in a water extract of freeze-dried green beans on the basis of inhibitor
and substrate specificities. An attempt was made to classify
these esterases according to the criteria used for animal esterases.
Activity of the esterases was measured manometrically using
the Gilson...
Scaling characteristics of calcium carbonate on a heated surface
in a deluged dry cooling system were investigated. Bulk temperature
of the deluge water was maintained constant at 90°F. Air flow velocity was maintained constant at 181 cfm., and deluge water flow was
maintained at the minimum level that provided thorough...
This thesis is an account of investigation on the natural products deriving from various marine algae and has resulted in the discovery of eleven novel bioactive metabolites. Isolation and characterization of these new molecules were carried out using different chromatographic techniques and by analyses of different spectroscopic data, respectively. Using...
The influence of polyphosphates upon the emulsification of
enzymatic hydrolyzates of casein and lactalbumin and upon salt-soluble
meat proteins was determined by a model system in which
oil-in-water emulsions were formed.
Sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium tripolyphosphate and
sodium hexametaphosphate were mixed together in a weight ratio
of 4:2:4, respectively, to...
This report presents the analysis of ceramic heat
exchangers for use in a combined-cycle, wood-fired power
plant. The combined-cycle system investigated is
characterized by having a wood-fueled combustor, an
indirect-fired gas turbine, and a Rankine steam cycle.
The direct use of low-grade fuels, such as wood, in
present gas turbines...
Adenosine 3', 5' -cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP, cAMP) and guanosine 3', 5' -cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP, cGMP) were quantitated in the central nervous system (CNS) of the insect Manduca sexta by competitive protein binding techniques. The M. sexta CNS was found to contain a strikingly high level of cGMP, about...
