Conversion of solar energy to mechanical power through the use of
thermostatic bimetals and linear Fresnel lenses was found to be both
theoretically and experimentally feasible. Using linear Fresnel lenses
to concentrate sunlight on bimetallic coils caused a simple sun powered
motor to produce rotational shaft power. However, continuous rotational...
The assumption of constant quartz accumulation for the deep-sea
sediment core Y69-106P, taken in the Panama Basin, has been
used to date the core and construct a sedimentation rate versus time
curve for it. Stratigraphic control for the calculated time scale
includes three carbon-14 measurements, the extinction of the
radiolarian...
Glutenin protein molecules can form a large "macropolymer" which forms the elastic component of the gluten complex in wheat flour doughs. Little work has been done to investigate relationships between glutenin macropolymer (GMP) and noodle processing. GMP was isolated from flour of 4 wheat varieties; 3 hard- and 1 soft-grained...

The hemlock woolly adelgid, Adelges tsugae, is causing widespread mortality of eastern hemlock, Tsuga canadensis, in the eastern United States. In the West, A. tsugae causes negligible damage to western hemlock, Tsuga heterophylla. Host tolerance traits and presence of endemic predators may be contributing to the relative tolerance of western...
This study was designed to determine whether
dietary protein is a nutritional factor influencing the
bioavailability of dietary fluoride. To accomplish
this, a factorial experiment was conducted with
weanling rats fed a purified diet to determine the
influence of dietary protein type (casein or
lactalbumin) and level (12% or 36%)...
Nutrition and diet are significantly interrelated with oral health and disease.
The control of diet and nutrient intake and good oral hygiene are important elements
in the prevention and treatment of dental caries and periodontal disease.
Prevention of dental disease is the major focus of dentistry today, and dietary counseling...
