The genome composition and DNA base sequence homologies
of several diverse species of fish were examined. The fishes were
characterized from spectrophotometric studies of reassociation and
hybridization of their DNAs and from the thermal stabilities of hybrid
duplexes.
Spectrophotometric studies indicated that repeated sequences
comprise 35-40% of the genomes of...
An attempt was made to differentiate between runs of steelhead by comparing the reassociations of their DNA. Conditions for the reassociation were studied using E. coli DNA, and observations
were made spectrophotometrically. Of the five buffers examined, 1.0 molar sodium perchlorate plus one-hundredth molar tris-HCl, pH 7.1, at 60° or...
Nitrogen deficiency during the winter where winter wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) follows wheat and large amounts of straw
have been plowed down has been a factor limiting yield in the
Willamette Valley of western Oregon. Field experiments were
established to determine if an application of N on the stubble or...
A feedlot cannot retain its manure byproduct indefinitely.
Eventually some method of disposal must be used. A case study
approach to this problem confronting a cattle feeding operation
representative of those in the area was used to determine volume
relationship among different product forms in order to maximize
net revenue...
A computationally efficient algorithm has been developed for
determining exact or approximate solutions for large scale generalized
fixed charge problems. This algorithm is based on a relaxation
of the Benders decomposition procedure, combined with a linear
mixed integer programming (MIP) algorithm specifically designed to
solve the problem associated with Benders...
We explored relationships between photophysical processes and solar cell characteristics in solution-processable bulk heterojunctions (BHJs), in particular: (1) polymer donor:fullerene acceptor:small-molecule (SM) nonfullerene acceptor, (2) polymer donor:SM donor:SM nonfullerene acceptor, and (3) SM donor:SM nonfullerene or fullerene acceptor. Addition of a nonfullerene SM acceptor to “efficient” polymer:fullerene BHJs led to...
We report on the effect of various guest molecules added to a functionalized anthradithiophene (ADT) host on photoexcited charge carrier dynamics in solution-deposited thin films, from ~100 ps to >100 μs after photoexcitation with 100 fs laser pulses. An addition of 2 and 5 wt % of C60 to a...
Polarization-dependent absorption spectra of two functionalized derivatives of fluorinated anthradithiophene, diF TES-ADT and diF TDMS-ADT, were studied in the crystal phase using a Holstein-like Hamiltonian. For both molecules, the primary contribution to the lowest energy absorption was found to be the S-0-S-1 excitonic transition perturbed by an intermolecular coupling of...
