The practice of dietetics has changed over the
past several years to include an increasing number of
dietitians working in private practice. The 1986 census
of The American Dietetic Association identified
2,383 (4.3%) of the membership as active in the Consulting
Nutritionist in Private Practice group. Private
practice opportunities have...
The environmental fate of conifer resins and their natural product compounds as mixtures is of importance for source, alteration, and transport studies. The compound compositions of resins of the common Callitris species (Cupressaceae) based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry have not been reported. Results show that diterpenoids were the most abundant...
In the United States, the wild horse population exceeds the recommended carrying capacity by about 60,000 horses.
• Current contraceptive methods include: surgical (removal of ovaries), hormonal (progesterone, GnRH), and immunologic (porcine zona pellucida, GnRH).
• SPACA3 is a sperm surface membrane protein involved in sperm-egg plasma membrane adhesion and...
An industry panel tasting of wine from the 1987 Pinot noir maturity trials (see previous article by Watson et al this issue) was conducted at OSU in April, 1988. Thirteen winemakers participated in the half-day tasting which involved both the description of the aroma and flavor of the wines and...
Vegetation at the aquatic–terrestrial interface can alter landscape features through its growth and interactions with sediment and fluids. Even similar species may impart different effects due to variation in their interactions and feedbacks with the environment. Consequently, replacement of one engineering species by another can cause significant change in the...
Environmental contributions to cancer development are widely accepted, but only a fraction of all pertinent exposures
have probably been identified. Traditional toxicological approaches to the problem have largely focused on the effects of
individual agents at singular endpoints. As such, they have incompletely addressed both the pro-carcinogenic contributions
of environmentally...

Coastlines have traditionally been engineered to maintain structural stability and to protect property from storm-related damage, but their ability to endure will be challenged over the next century. The use of vegetation to reduce erosion on ocean-facing mainland and barrier island shorelines – including the sand dunes and beaches on...
The 2011 M[subscript W] = 9.0 Tohoku-oki earthquake generated a large number of unique soil liquefaction case histories, including cases with strong ground motion recordings on liquefiable or potentially liquefiable soils. We have compiled a list of 22 strong motion stations (SMS) where surface evidence of liquefaction was observed and...
Background: The impact of vertical programs on health systems is a much-debated topic, and more evidence on this complex relationship is needed. This article describes a research protocol developed to assess the relationship between the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, routine immunization, and primary health care in multiple settings. Methods/Design: This...
