Production of weaning food from composites of pearl millet and cowpea
(1990)
Weaning food from pearl millet and cowpea composites was produced using extrusion and press-drying. Sorghum malt was added to the composites to produce drinkable weaning foods. Millet was decorticated and then extruded at ...
Relationship of epipelic algae populations and shrimp culture at Corpus Christi, Texas
(1990)
The unchecked growth of diatoms and cyanobacteria is a major concern in shrimp mariculture. Diatom blooms are often stimulateded, to increase productivity in ponds; at the same time, mariculturists may try to control ...
MRI study of imbibition flooding using carbonated water
(1991)
Recoverable oil reserves remain trapped in fractured reservoirs of dual porosity with very low permeability rock matrix blocks, 0.10 md or less, and a fracture system. Conventional secondarty methods cannot be applied to ...
Changes in growth, invertase, and carbohydrates in salt stressed Cucumis sativus
(1991)
Cucurbits are moderately sensitive to salinity stress. Experiments were done to examine the physiological effects of NaCl on the growth and development of cucumber leaves and roots. Sodium chloride shock caused an inhibition ...
Modulation of replication and RNA-protein interactions in brome mosaic virus
(1993)
The 3' termini of the three genomic RNAs of BMV contain cis-acting elements essential for the promotion of (-)-strand synthesis. To understand the biological significance of the maintenance of specific base differences in ...
A screening technique for detecting levels of resistance in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) to belly rot induced by Rhizoctonia solani Kuehn
(1988)
A procedure for detecting cucumber fruit resistance to belly rot induced by Rhizoctonia solani is described. Inoculum in an unsterilized soil, naturally infested with Rhizoctonia solani Kuehn, AG-4, was increased by placing ...
Electron field emission in porous silicon
(1991)
Anodization of a heavily doped silicon wafer followed by oxidation can build a structure of an insulated layer with vertical voids on the substrate. When a positive potential is applied on the top of the insulating layer, ...
Submersed weed management with triploid grass carp in waterlily production ponds
(1990)
Weed control by triploid grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella Val.) in waterlily (Nymphaea cultivars) production ponds was investigated and simulated. The 4 x 2 factorial experiment involved eight duplicated treatments ...
Granulosa cell lines as models of ovarian carcinogenesis
(1990)
Cell lines derived from rat ovarian granulosa cells were established as an epithelial model system for studies of in vitro transformation. A series of experiments focused on analysis of an unusual nuclear distribution of ...
Studies on the expression and modulation of gap junctions in rat myometrial cell cultures
(1993)
The expression and modulation of myometrial gap junctions remain poorly understood. However, the availability of new molecular and biochemical tools including cDNAs and antipeptide antibodies permits extensive characterization ...
