(2008-05-22)The purpose of this research is to find more definitive answers about relationship violence as it occurs among dating couples. More specifically, this research seeks to understand how relationship violence may be different ...
-
(1983)The concern of this research is the social influence of observation of other's performance and the modelled self-reward standards on a child's own self-reward standards. It has been noted in previous research that children ...
-
(1998)The following explores the first systematic research conducted at Texas A&M University studying preparation techniques of the bulk La₁₋ₓCaₓMnO3±δ colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) family. Three sample sets of bulk La₁₋ₓCaₓMnO3±δ ...
-
(1989)This study investigates the circumstances under which people use a holistic (overall similarity) or an analytic (feature representation) mode of processing in a concept learning task. Three experiments were performed on ...
-
(1979)A study of available nonterrestrial materials, general processing methods for those materials, and a specific study of centrifugal phase separation is presented in this report. Nonterrestrial materials studied are the moon ...
-
(1997)In today's cinematic world, elaborate digital special effects are so commonplace that most viewers ignore them. Despite their widespread use, computer-rendered effects cost no less per shot at major studios today than they ...
-
(1985)This research project focused on the production of monoclonal antibodies to the holoenzyme aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase) and to its component catalytic and regulatory subunits. The hybridoma cell lines were prepared ...
-
(1978)Immunology is the study of the host's resistance to disease. This resistance has been traditionally divided into two branches: humoral and cell mediated. Humoral resistance involves the inactivation of invading organisms ...
-
(1980)The sharply rising cost incurred in the production of quality software has brought with it the need for the development of techniques used during program design and implementation. The two most efficient techniques for the ...
-
(1998)The use of Propionibacterium acnes as an immunostimulant has been documented in various in vivo studies. Used frequently in the equine industry as a prophylactic treatment against Equine Respiratory Disease Complex (ERDC), ...
-
(1984)A study was conducted to determine the optimum protein to energy ratio for red crawfish (Procambarus clarkii). Six experimental diets were formulated which contained 20, 30, or 40% protein and 2500 or 3500 kcal/kg gross ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)In this post-genomic era, researchers are striving to find new ways to use the enormous amounts of data that have been collected. One obvious way is with proteomics, the large-scale identification of expressed proteins. ...
-
(1979)Three species of decapods: Callinectes sapidus, Menippe mercenaria, and Clibanarius vittatus, were examined for protozoan and metazoan symbionts. An examination for endosymbionts revealed two cysts, probably trematode ...
-
(1983)The psychological effects of chronic illness were examined using the Jr.-Sr. High School Personality Questionaire. The scores from a group of 20 adolescents who have Cystic Fibrosis were compared to the scores of a control ...
-
Purification and Characterization of a Palmityl-CoA Thioesterase from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides (1982)A palmityl-CoA thioesterase from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides has been purified 625-fold. The enzyme was homogenous as judged by both a constant ratio of thioesterase activity to absorbing material at 280 nm in fractions ...
-
(1993)A conserved histidine residue at position 331 of rat tyrosine hydroxylase was changed to glutamine by site-directed mutagenesis. The mutant enzyme, TOH-H331Q, was expressed in E. coli with a pET3b-based vector. The level ...
-
(1979)The studies reported in this paper examine the metabolic reorientation of purine nucleotide metabolism during the development of the cellular slime mold, Dictyostelium discoideum. There appears to be an energy oriented ...
-
(2006-08-16)Control over reproduction is obviously not the only component in the fight for women’s equality. However, control over one’s body is essential to control over one’s destiny. This control is essential for a person desiring ...
