On The Use Of Tris (Hydroxymethyl) Aminomethane As A Diluent In Quantitative Analyses Of Soil Bacteria, Barry L. Keller

Masters Theses

Introduction

Many investigations have been conducted in the field of soil microbiology during the past.six decades. Most notable among the contributors is S. A. Waksman whose voluminous works have established many of the procedures used in microbial analyses of soil. Yet, the one fact that is foremost to any reviewer of the literature covering this field is that no standardization of techniques for soil analyses exists. The following presentation deals with one method used to estimate the number of bacteria and actinomycetes in soil.

The use of Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (hereafter referred to as "Tris") is not new. Tris currently is used …

The Effect Of Infection With Polyoma Virus On The Protein, Rna, And Dna Of Mouse Embryo Cell Cultures, Lawrence E. Mcconnehey

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

In four separate experiments mouse embryo cell monolayers infected with polyoma virus and uninfected control mouse embryo cells were maintained in Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium for periods of time ranging from 0 to 168 hours. The cell layers were removed from the glass by trypsinization. Samples of the cells were counted in a Coulter Counter and the remainder of the cells frozen after centrifugation, in a button. Later, the buttons were thawed and protein, RNA, and DNA analyses were performed on each sample. The micrograms per million cells of protein. RNA, and DNA were determined for each sample and plotted …

Differential Salt Tolerance Of Hordeum Jubatum, Agropyron Trachycaulum, And Their Natural Hybrid Elymus Macounii, Marian Lucy Hanna

Theses and Dissertations

Because plants show a wide range of variation in growth in the presence of excessive concentrations of soluble salts in the soil, this study was undertaken to determine the effects of various concentrations of NaCL and Na2SO4 on the growth and development of Hordeum jubatum, Agropyron trachycaulum, and the natural hybrid of these two plants, Elymus macounii.

Information—A Problem Of The Research Scientist, Burton W. Adkinson

Journal of the Graduate Research Center

“What you don't know won't hurt you" is a cliche whose lack of validity probably is exceeded only by its age. Think what an unlighted, open manhole at night can do to you! A paraphrase of this old saw that I think can be defended, at least in the context of my remarks today, is that "What you don't need, needn't worry you." The really serious problems are posed by the things and services you need badly and are unable to obtain. It is only because prompt, reliable access to accurate scientific information is so necessary to good research that …

Some Effects Of Ph, Temperature And Light On The Production Of Zoosporagia In Saprolegnia Parasitica Coker, Philip C. Lee

Master's Theses

Pure cultures of Saprolegnia parasitica Coker were grown under varied conditions of temperature, pH, and light conditions. In liquid medium colonies were spherical with a zonal effect in the distribution of zoosporangia.

Near the limiting extremes of pH and temperature, beaded hyphal tips were found in place of normal sporangia. Teorell Universal buffer in the sporulation water inhibited production of sporangia. The pH minimum was 4.0 - 4.1, optimum 6.3 - 7.4, and maximum 8.o - 8.3. The maximum number of sporangia was produced at 15 C. Between 3.4 and 5 C , a delay in sporulation was noted and …

A Manual For Training Food Service Supervisors In Brazil, Rosalynn Case

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

This study was done to develop a manual to be used in instructing food service supervisors in Brazil.

The need for the study was established when the writer was asked to direct a training course for food service supervisors in Brazil. Correspondence with dietitians in Brazil reveled that there was a definite need for a manual which presents current scientific, and technological information.

Current literature was reviewed and studied to determine present concepts in each of the areas of food service supervision and management. A manual of instruction was then prepared which included these concepts.

In the manual suggestions were …

Selected Insecticides In The Control Of Invertebrates Possibly Associated With Avian Botulism, J. Larry Haddock

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Avian botulism or ''western duck sickness" has long been a major problem on duck marshes in the western part of the United States. This has been demonstrated to result from the ingestion of products of metabolism of bacterial cells of Clostridium botulinum type C. These products when ingested by waterfowl act as neurotoxins (Coburn, 1942). Studies have shown that many animal tissues are readily utilized as culture media by Cl. botulinum type C (Bell et al., 1955).

Since 1955 investigations have indicated a close relation between the occurrence of avian botulism and invertebrate population levels. It is thought that when …

An Evaluation Of Antibiotics Upon Selected Dairy Organisms, Roy Brog

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

This study was designed to answer a three-fold purpose. Primarily, it has endeavored to measure the inhibitory effect of three antibiotics (potassium pencillin, dihydrostreptomycin, and oxytetracycline) on lactic acid producing organisms. The lactic acid-producing organisms include Streptococcus lactis, Streptococcus thermophilis, and Lactobacillus bulgaricus.

The determination of an effective dose of a given antibiotic which will inhibit 50 percent of the lactic acid-producing organism (E.D.₅₀) will be established. A 50 percent cut in acid development will certainly lead to an inferior product.

The secondary purpose has related to the detection of inhibitory substances (antibiotics) in milk. What is …

A Survey Of Parasitism In A Population Of Pigeons, Robert Flynn Jochen

Master's Theses

Numerous papers relative to parasites in pigeons can be found in the literature, but information concerning parasitic infections in pigeons of Virginia is scant, and no survey of parasitism has been made. Furthermore, no one survey or parasitism in pigeons of North America has included the incidence of both ectoparasites and endoparasites. Information relative to the incidence of individual parasites or groups of parasites, however, is available in recent literature, as well as information concerning isolated cases of parasitism

The present study was undertaken to (1) determine the nature and extent of parasitism in a population of pigeons in Henrico …

Occurrence And Severity Of The Viruses Of Strawberry In Minnesota, T. H. King, Stephen C.Y. Liu, R. L. Skiles

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Approximately 900 plants of commercially grown strawberries of 45 varieties and experimental seedling selections were collected from various parts of the state of Minnesota and indexed for the presence of viruses. Their presence in these plants was demonstrated by the appearance of symptoms in the indicator plant, Fragaria vesca L., after they were inarch-grafted. 93 % of the plants indexed were virus-infected. Based on symptoms, the viruses have been classified into 14 symptomtypes. It was found that mottle and mild yellow-edge were the two dominant viruses, whereas crinkle and vein chlorosis were of rare occurrence. There was no indication that …

The Effect Of O-Phenylphenol On The Growth Of Some Fungi Occurring In Wood, William Merrill, D. W. French

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

It is often difficult or impossible to obtain cultures of wood rotting fungi from pieces of decayed wood placed on agar media, because other fungi present in the wood grow out rapidly and hide or suppress the fungus or fungi responsible for the decay. Trichoderma viride Pers. occurs very commonly in decayed wood, grows rapidly on agar media suitable for the isolation of wood-rotting fungi, and makes the isolation of wood decay fungi difficult. Russell (2) reported that Ophenylphenol added to the culture medium at the rate of 0.06 grams per liter would inhibit the growth of Trichoderma but permit …
