The effects of improved oral hygiene on the nutrition of 23
elderly institutionalized men and women were investigated. An experimental
group of 12 received professional oral hygiene treatments
three times weekly for a period of five weeks, while a control group
of 11 received only placebo work. Changes in taste...
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...
This study Is a rhetorical analysis of ten documents of Joseph
Smith, Jr's. early revelations spanning the period of 1829 to 1831
to determine the extent to which he used demagogic rhetoric in pursuit
of his goals. A definition of demagoguery is provided and is
applied in an analysis of...

Lithium serves an unparalleled role for high energy-density storage applications and is vital for the continued advancement of the world economy. However, global supply is heavily reliant on lithium deposits situated in select locations, creating unpredictability in the price and concerns for the sustained production of the resource. Additionally, future...
Research has been completed which identifies qualitatively and
quantitatively the deposition, persistence and fate of polynuclear
aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAH) on burned clear-cut sites in Oregon.
Eight PNAH were identified and quantified in post-burn litter samples
taken from four slash-burned sites. Deposition of lower
molecular weight, 3-4 ring compounds was considerably...
Abstract:
Resource managers and policy face challenges in forecasting the demand for natural resources replenishment (where possible) of natural resources due to changes in human lifestyle, population change and economic development. The year 2020 demonstrated this challenge on several fronts, including the realm of natural resources. Additionally, much competition for...
Lycopodium alkaloids have generated enormous amounts of interest from the scientific community, both as synthetic targets and for their medicinal properties. Herein is described work towards a unifying approach to large segments of the Lycopodium family. An organocatalyzed intramolecular heteroatom Michael reaction method, for the construction of piperidine and piperizine...
Effective methods for the enantiopure formation of substituted piperidine rings are significantly important due to their presence in alkaloid products. A valuable method to form these ring systems would be via an intramolecular heteroatom Michael addition from the corresponding enone or enal. Described herein is a methodolgy that has been...
Cyclopropenoid fatty acids (CPFA) are natural components of
cottonseed oil, a major food oil in the United States. The ability of
CPFA to cause abnormal biochemical and physiological effects when
fed to laboratory and farm animals has prompted an investigation of
their effects on mice.
Between 0.05 and 0.55% CPFA...
