.05 M NaAc, pH = 6.9-7.2, .15 M or p = .15 with NaCl) resulted
in a decrease in ceruloplasmin (EC 1.12.3) p-phenylenediamine
oxidase activity within one hour of injection.
Maximal decrease (40%) occurred within six...
β-chitin/chitosan extracted from newly utilized jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) pens were investigated in respect to their physicochemical properties, polymeric structures, deacetylation and depolymerization characteristics, and antioxidant and antibacterial activities. These functional properties were further compared with α-chitin/chitosan prepared from shrimp shells. Due to the low mineral content (< 1%) and...
In this study, we compared the behavior of bottle fed lambs verses mother fed lambs in three testing scenarios; the sociability test, the paired attachment test, and the mismatch attachment test. The tests sought to determine if a familiar human can serve as a secure base for lambs in a...
BACKGROUND:
Drosophila suzukii is a major pest of cherry in the western United States. We evaluated whether the addition of sugary baits could improve the efficacy of two classes of insecticides not considered to be sufficiently effective for this pest, diamides and spinosyns, in laboratory and field trials in cherry....
With a little patience and a lot of practice, sales presentations
can become one of your most productive selling tools.
Success depends on your capacity to listen, the depth of your knowledge of your company and its products, and your ability to ask the right
questions.
These changes aren’t characteristic of only large
companies. Entrepreneurs and small companies are seeing
the same kinds of changes. Yet, most companies have not made
the internal changes needed to address and more effectively
embrace these important changes.
You can enhance your sales success significantly by better
understanding your own personality and style of selling
as well as the personality and buying styles of your customers.
This understanding can provide you with strategies for
approaching, and selling to, different buyer types.
Three months following sowing, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings were transplanted into pots with controlled-release fertilizer (CRF) applied at rates of 0, 8, 16, and 24 g/2200 cm3 soil as a single uniform layer beneath the root system. Seedlings were destructively harvested periodically, and roots were divided into vertical...
A method was developed for the measurement of 19 parent PAHs (PAHs) and 34 hydroxylated
PAHs (OH-PAHs) in urine and personal air samples of particulate matter less than 2.5 um in
diameter (PM[subscript 2.5]) using GC-MS and validated using NIST SRM 3672 (Organic Contaminants in
Smoker’s Urine) and SRM 3673...

This paper is aimed at determining the impact of the variability of marine environment conditions on the
capture of a vessel that exploit the red seabream fishery of the Strait of Gibraltar. This paper estimates
first and second order elasticities of a Translog approximation of a Stochastic Distance Functions of...
