The relative enrichment of skin sebaceous gland lipids with deuterium-labeled α-tocopherol was compared with plasma enrichment to evaluate the delivery of vitamin E to skin. For the first week of this study, each subject consumed a daily dose of deuterated vitamin E (150 mg of an equimolar mixture of RRR-α-[5-(C²H₃)]-(d₃)...
BACKGROUND: Little is known about α-tocopherol’s bioavailability
as a constituent of food or its dependence on a subject’s age.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the α-tocopherol bioavailability from food,
we used collard greens grown in deuterated water (²H collard
greens) as a source of deuterium-labeled (²H) α-tocopherol consumed
by younger and older...
From my personal experiences, I’ve noticed that Latinx students and families are most receptive to college-related information communicated as anecdotes. Latinx students are among the most poorly represented demographic at universities nationwide, which I believe can be mitigated through calculated efforts to increase collegiate literacy and understanding. This project is...
The marine climate of the Galapagos is spatially and seasonally
heterogeneous. A taxonomically comprehensive study of Galapagos zooplankton has
never been done. This study is an initial effort to establish the distribution and
community structure of zooplankton in the Archipelago. I collected zooplankton
samples by vertical tows over the Galapagos...

This technical report summarizes the
results of a three year study of the zooplankton
living in the nearshore zone off
Newport, Oregon. The sampling program was
part of the Early Life History (ELH) project
of the Oregon State University Sea Grant Program
and was designed to study the ecology
of...
A study was done on the zoogeography of species of oceanic
shrimp in the North Pacific from 22°N to 56°N and from 124°W to
145°E, using samples of shrimp collected from 1954 to 1969. These
collections were made during the following cruises: John R. Manning
Cruise 22, and the Hugh...
Local property-owning residents maintain high levels of interest
and awareness regarding a neighboring natural resource complex.
Factors, however, such as proximity, personal interests, use patterns
and economic considerations cause local inhabitants to have an
inaccurate perception of the natural resource complex. The nature
of local resident perception can be analyzed...
