A complex and sometimes serious problem facing modern day forest
managers is that of estimating and analyzing potential on-site impacts
which result from forest activities. A major type of adverse impact
is man-Initiated forest erosion. This consequence can be substantially
magnified when forest harvest and road activities are implemented in...
Six species of Cystangium, a genus of
sequestrate taxa related to Russula, were collected
in Patagonia (Argentina and Chile) during autumn
2001. Two species, C. depauperatum Singer & A.H.
Sm. and C. nothofagi (E. Horak) Trappe, Castellano &
T. Lebel, were already known from this region, while
four new species,...
An abundant fruiting of a black morel was encountered in temperate northwestern New South Wales (NSW), Australia, during a mycological survey in Sep 2010. The site was west of the Great Dividing Range in a young, dry sclerophyll forest dominated by Eucalyptus and Callitris north of Coonabarabran in an area...
The unique flavor of high quality Swiss cheese is difficult to
reproduce in commercial market cheese. Swiss cheese flavor has
never been duplicated or thoroughly understood. New techniques and
advances in flavor research have enabled better definition and understanding
of food flavors. Therefore, it was desirable to make a detailed...
Ion exchange chromatography methods which have been
developed in recent years appear to offer a sensitive technique that
can be utilized very advantageously in studies on various proteins
and their properties. The application of such a procedure for the
successful fractionation of bovine sarcoplasmic proteins should stimulate
interest and research...
Recent studies have shown that when milk fat is heated, a
homologous series containing the n-alkyl members of methyl ketones
with odd numbers of carbon in their chains are produced (48; 44; 38;
and 3). The same series of compounds also is found in evaporated
and dried whole milk and...
A method is described for the determination of N-nitrosoproline
(NOPRO) in cured meat products. NOPRO was extracted with ethyl
acetate from a slurry of cured meat and water after the addition of
ammonium sulfamate and acid. This nitrosamino acid was converted
to the methyl ester and after further purification, it...
Traditional interpretations of James Joyce's Dubliners have often focused on the pervasive "paralysis" of the city, covered in the stories' range of "childhood, adolescence, maturity, and public life." However, these approaches have limited their focus on the women in the stories, often spotlighting the male characters--and the author--through a Freudian...
