The economics of alternative fresh beef distribution systems
(1984)
The beef distribution industry is facing rapid changes as a result of a new input relationships and new technology. Because meat processing and distribution are both labor intensive industries, one of the main factors ...
Hypothermic treatment of spinal cord injury : the effect of treatment temperature and duration on tissue pathogenesis
(1984)
After 15 years of research, investigators still do not agree on the value of treating spinal cord injury with hypothermia. While there are many variables in the process from which conflict may arise, this experiment attempts ...
Purification and characterization of a tyrosine aminotransferase from Crithidia fasciculata, a comparative biochemical model for African trypanosomes
(1984)
The catabolism of aromatic amino acids by trypanosomes has been of major research interest because of its involvement in the pathogenesis during chronic African trypanosomiasis. The first step in these pathways is an ...
Electrooculographic measurement, fatigue and variability of performance in simulated aircraft flight
(1984)
Recent aircraft technology has resulted in the development of aircraft with greatly increased range, flight duration capabilities and increased performance. The complexity of operating a highly sophisticated aircraft has ...
Load-induced rotordynamic instabilities in turbomachinery
(1984)
By employing the extended Hamilton principle, both equations of motion and associated boundary conditions are derived for three different models subjected to non-conservative torques: the cantilevered rotor, the uniform ...
Measurement of the FE-deficiency response mechanism in sorghum
(1984)
Growth chamber studies were conducted to develop a visual test for differentiating sorghum cultivar Fe-efficiency in CaCO(,3) buffered nutrient culture. Nine sorghum cultivars were germinated in vermiculite and grown for ...
Flow of electrons in nitrate reductase from Chlorella vulgaris
(1984)
A large-scale culture system for Chlorella vulgaris has been established and growth conditions determined for optimal production of nitrate reductase. Nitrate reductase was purified from collected cells. A novel method for ...
Children's literature in Texas : a history and evaluation
(1984)
Literature written for children and set in Texas began in 1855 and continues to the present, but consideration of it as literature has been confined to cataloging and brief, annotated bibliographies. This study concerns ...
The contribution of standardized extended caution indices to the prediction of performance in college mathematics
(1984)
This study examined the relationships between standardized extended caution indices (ECI2(,z) & ECI4(,z)), mathematical ability, and course performance (precalculus or calculus) to determine whether or not: (a) ECI(,z)s ...
Osmoregulation and genetic polymorphism in Palaemonetes spp
(1984)
The osmoregulatory capabilities of the grass shrimps Palaemonetes kadiakensis Rathbun, Palaemonetes pugio Holthuis and Palaemonetes vulgaris (Say) were compared with steady-state and nonsteady-state experiments conducted ...
