The induction of drug-metabolizing enzymes is a
complex biochemical process manifested not only by
increases in various cytochrome P-450 isozymes and
related activities, but also by alterations in
endoplasmic reticulum membranes. Little work has been
done to examine how cytochrome P-450 inducing agents
influence other cellular processes, such as
phospholipid...
Computer control of a robot arm's motion requires kinematic algorithms for relating the state of a particular arm's joints to the position and orientation of its tool in three-dimensional space. To design such algorithms requires mathematical formulation of the kinematics of the arm. The resulting long, tedious algebraic manipulations suggest...
The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of dress and queer women and how their sexual identity influences their appearance management behaviors. I answered the following research questions: (1) How is gender identity constructed and negotiated in different spaces for queer? (2) Does sexual identity influence dress...
We examine variability observed in heat flow determinations collected on hot spot
swells. We find substantial scatter in heat flow at wavelengths of a few hundred kilometers
and less at both Hawaii and Reunion, where closely spaced data exist, and large variability
in the regional heat flow surveys at Cape...
The War Production Board issued limitation order 85 in April 1942 in order to conserve fabric and manpower needed for the war effort. The L-85 order froze the silhouette so no major style changes in women's wear would occur during the war. It is clear that on the one hand...
Twelve Acrilan acrylic, twelve Orlon acrylic, and twelve wool
blankets were studied to determine the effect of laundering on thermal
insulation value. The thirty-six blankets used in this study
were selected and purchased by Florence Petzel for use in the study
of the effects of maintenance on wool and acrylic...
The 134-year old Frantz-Dunn House in Hoskins, Oregon is an intact, well-preserved example of rural Gothic architecture in the Willamette Valley. The old farmstead sits on a former Civil War Fort site and represents a link in the history of the region to the larger patterns of expansion in America...
