Voter preference on the issue of comprehensive land use
planning in Oregon was analyzed through various population
characteristics in order to determine the factors
contributing to public preference in this issue and how they
were distributed spatially. Two statistical models were
developed to analyze the correlations between voting outcome
in...
This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
An exact integral solution for the moisture profile in growing fingers in sandy soil is derived from Richards' equation. The solution provides moisture content along a finger as a function of position and time and provides applicable results, including the calculation of the asymptotic matric potential of a growing finger...
Beer, nonfat dry milk, fried bacon and microwave baked fish were
treated under simulated gastric and extreme nitrosation conditions to
estimate their capacity for generation of endogenously formed
N-nitrosamines. The level of nitrosamines in beer increased from 0.1
ppb N-nitrosodimethylamine to 0.4 ppb N-nitrosodimethylamine (p < 0.05) under simulated gastric...
Dimethylamine (DMA), in addition to the alkaloids hordenine
and gramine, has been suggested as a potential precursor of nitrosodimethylamine
(NDMA) in malt. Analytical procedures were adopted
and applied to extract and quantify DMA from malt, green malt,
malt roots and raw barley. Ground malt was extracted at room
temperature with...
Amines formed by biosynthesis in germinated barley have been
suggested as precursors for N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in barley
malt dried by direct-fired kilning. This hypothesis was verified by
germinating raw barley and exposing the resulting malt roots and
clean malt to nitrous acid. Quantitation of the NDMA formed indicated
that malt...
