Use of antimicrobial agents in a novel cattle washing system
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Antimicrobial agents, 0.5% L-lactic acid and 50 ppm chlorine, along with water wash treatments (single or double) were evaluated in a cattle washing system for their effectiveness in reducing Aerobic Plate Counts (APC), ...
Impact of nutrient loading from point and non-point sources on water quality and lotic ecosystem health in Texas' north-Bosque watershed using a bio-indicator response approach
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Nutrient enrichment in the LakeWaco/Bosque watershed in north central Texas has resulted in declining water quality, and ecological degradation of stream habitat. This study was conducted to characterize the spatial and ...
Lithic reduction trajectories at La Hueca and Punta Candelero sites, Puerto Rico
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
One of the most intensely debated issues in Caribbean archaeology in the last two decades has been concentrated on addressing if there was either one or two migrations of ceramic bearers to the West Indies following the ...
Relationships between potassium, chloride, and disease incidence in St. Augustinegrass and bermudagrass
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Potassium and chloride both suppressed Rhizoctonia blight in St. Augustinegrass and the two combined together as KCl was superior to K or Cl applied separately. Potassium applied as K₂SO₄ showed little disease suppression. ...
The relationship between perseverance and academic attainment in agricultural education
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
This study was designed to examine the perseverance level of agricultural education educators nationwide. The study design was descriptive-correlational with data collected using a written questionnaire that was mailed ...
A novel millimeter-wave beam-steering technique using a dielectric-image-line-fed grating film
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
This thesis introduces a novel, broadband, low-cost technique for beam steering at millimeter-wave frequencies using a moveable grating film fed by dielectric image line. An excellent radiation pattern is maintained over ...
Rat colonic reactive oxygen species production and DNA damage are mediated by diet and age
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Colon cancer is the second leading cause of death from cancer in the United States. Studies suggest that oxidative damage to DNA caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a critical initiating event in carcinogenesis. ...
