ascorbic acid is an essential element of the diet
of these fish. Although previous work had been
done on this question, conflicts in the results,
the large reliance upon abnormal symptoms such as
lordosis and...
The atmospheric transport of anthropogenic semivolatile organic compounds (SOCs) from Asian sources to the Western U.S. was investigated. In addition, the SOC extraction method was optimized. Hansen solubility parameter plots were used to aid in the pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) solvent selection of air sampling media in order to minimize...

A simulation study of end-of-aisle order picking AS/R systems
is made with special emphasis on improving the system throughput by
introducing a zone near the home (Input/Output) location on each side
of the aisle, for storing partially picked pallets. The study considered
class-based-turnover assignment policies, one with a zone and...

The teliospore of Tilletia caries germinates to produce a promycelium
with a whorl of primary sporidia at its tip. The time between
emergence of the promycelium and the development of primary sporidia
averaged 2.3 h. Fusion between compatible sporidia occurred within
an additional 3.8 h. Primary sporidia appeared to be...
