The public health and economic significance of rapid acid production
by lactic streptococci in controlled dairy fermentations is well
known. However, the fast acid-producing characteristic of these organisms
is not stable, and cultures of fast organisms have been shown

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the nature of the
chemical constituents of incense cedar bark with the hope that such an endeavor
would spur future research, development and use of a now neglected
natural raw material.
The bark from nine trees, which were separated into three age...
A technique is presented for obtaining high resolution root locus plots and Bode diagrams. This is done by translating the origin of coordinates to the area of interest by an appropriate change of variable. The method is applicable to hand calculations or use of a potential analog computer. Examples include...
Recent investigations indicate that several latent viruses of
apples exist in common commercial apple stocks, but these viruses
and their relationships are incompletely understood. This thesis
describes investigations of crab apples as indicators of latent viruses
of apples.
Eighty-eight varieties and species of crab apples were tested
as indicators of...
