An Analysis Of Retention Rates And Demographics Of Graduates Of The Air Force Institute Of Technology, Christopher A. Beres, Marion G. Camacho Sep 1992

An Analysis Of Retention Rates And Demographics Of Graduates Of The Air Force Institute Of Technology, Christopher A. Beres, Marion G. Camacho

Theses and Dissertations

This study analyzes the retention rates and demographics of Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) graduates. The sample includes 5,071 Air Force officers graduating between 1973 and 1987. Actual retention rates of AFIT graduates are compared to retention rates of mission support officers provided by the Air Force Military Personnel Center. A proportional hazards regression analysis is performed to study the relationship between specific factors and a graduate's length of service after graduating from AFIT. The results of this analysis show that graduates of the School of Engineering (EN) are nearly two years younger, on average, than their counterparts in …


Influence Of 2,5-Hexanedione, Acrylamide, Tri-O-Tolyl Phosphate, Leptophos And Methylmercury On Endogenous Levels Of Tryptophan, Serotonin And 5-Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid And Serotonin Turnover Rates In Rat Brain, Craig H. Farr May 1992

Influence Of 2,5-Hexanedione, Acrylamide, Tri-O-Tolyl Phosphate, Leptophos And Methylmercury On Endogenous Levels Of Tryptophan, Serotonin And 5-Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid And Serotonin Turnover Rates In Rat Brain, Craig H. Farr

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Several industrial and environmental chemicals cause distal and/or central neuropathy among other diverse toxic effects. Spague-Dawley derived rats were fed doses of 2,5-hexanedione, acrylamide, tri-o-tolyl phosphate, Leptophos and methylmercury via gavage. The dose levels and administration periods were established in previous experiments designed to assess clinical neuropathy using rats trained to walk on a rotorod apparatus fitted with an electrode floor. After intravenous injections of 3H-Tryptophan, whole rat brain homogenates were analyzed using liquid scintillation and spectrofluorometric techniques for levels of tryptophan, serotonin and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid. Serotonin turnover rates were calculated using the specific activities of tryptophan and serotonin …
