(1982)The relationship of sugar levels to ozone resistance in 13-day-old primary leaves of water-stressed bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris cv 'Pinto') was investigated. Solutions of 40%, 30%, 20%, 10%, 5%, 1%, and 0.1% (w/v) ...
-
(1985)The emphasis of this study was to develop a procedure for detecting the adulteration of nonfat dry milk with whey protein products. It was necessary to determine the effects of mastitis and heat processing as these are two ...
-
(1978)The superconducting transition temperature of a La.₈₀Ga.₂₀ alloy thin film prepared by the vapor-quench technique has been measured. An annealing curve of film resistivity as a function of temperature is inconclusive as ...
-
(2001)Thirty six gestating Fallow does (Dama dama; BW=51.3kg) were allotted into groups: 1) Control (C; No Supplement; n=12), 2) Supplement (S; 4:1, corn:soybean meal; n=12), or 3) Rice Bran (R; 3:1:1, corn:soybean meal:20% fat ...

-
(1997)Dr. Jeff Kelly's laboratory has been using 4-(2-aminoethyl)-6-dibenzofuran propoinic acid an unnatural amino acid to initiate 𝛽 sheet folding. The unnatural amino acid mimics a 𝛽 tum in an antiparallel 𝛽 sheet structure. ...
-
(1977)Naturally occuring peptides with C-terminal aldehyde functions have been shown to inhibit serine and thiol proteases possibly by reacting with the hydroxyl or sulfhydryl group in the active site. Tri-peptides were synthesized ...
-
(1981)The synthesis of the dihydro- and 7-Halodihydroanalogs of the antibiotic, antimetabolite Furanomycin was investigated. Stereochemistry of the resulting compounds was compared to Furanomycin. Initial biological testing of ...
