A survey was made in Oregon and Washington of the discoloration occurring in noble fir and Western hemlock wood, and the present data are presented as an aid in the inspection of these woods for aircraft and other high-grade lumber.
Recommendations, based on strength tests of similar discolorations in spruce...

Ribosomes are multicomponent macromolecular particles and
are essential for the survival of cells in all organisms. The ribosome's
universal function is to catalyze polypeptide synthesis through
translation of mRNA transcripts. Ribosomes from Escherichia coli,
eubacterial organisms, have a sedimentation coefficient of 70S and are
composed of 30S and 50S ribonucleoprotein...
This investigation attempts to demonstrate that the development
of the early 20th century biological enterprise involved a striving for a
unifying theoretical perspective. A skeletal substantiation of this is
given by an overview of early 20th century biology in which some
biologists began recognizing a multiplicity of different orders of...
Canine Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) makes up 2% of all canine cancers and is the most common cancer of the bladder for dogs.
