Storage Of Sunflower-Seeds: Variation On The Wax Content Of The Oil, Silvana Martini, Maria Cristina Anon Feb 2005

Storage Of Sunflower-Seeds: Variation On The Wax Content Of The Oil, Silvana Martini, Maria Cristina Anon

Nutrition, Dietetics, and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

Storage conditions of oil seeds before industrial extraction might influence the quality of the crude oil. The objective of this work was to study the influence of sunflower seed storage conditions (temperature and time) on the quality of the resulting oil in terms of its wax content and composition. Sunflower seeds were stored under different conditions, 10, 21 and 37 °C, in sealed recipients. Extractions of the seeds with hexane were made to obtain the oil at different storage times. The amount of oil extracted (25–40%) showed no significant differences with storage conditions. Wax content of the samples was determined …

Comparative Performance Of The Mbita Trap, Cdc Light Trap And The Human Landing Catch In The Sampling Of Anopheles Arabiensis, An. Funestus And Culicine Species In A Rice Irrigation In Western Kenya, Evan M. Mathenge, Gedion O. Misiani, David O. Oulo, Lucy W. Irungu, Paul N. Ndegwa, Tom A. Smith, Gerry F. Killeen, Bart G.J. Knols

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

Background: Mosquitoes sampling is an important component in malaria control. However, most of the methods used have several shortcomings and hence there is a need to develop and calibrate new methods. The Mbita trap for capturing host-seeking mosquitoes was recently developed and successfully tested in Kenya. However, the Mbita trap is less effective at catching outdoor-biting Anopheles funestus and Anopheles arabiensis in Madagascar and, thus, there is need to further evaluate this trap in diverse epidemiological settings. This study reports a field evaluation of the Mbita trap in a rice irrigation scheme in Kenya. Methods: The mosquito sampling efficiency of …


Host Genotype By Parasite Genotype Interactions Underlying The Resistance Of Anopheline Mosquitoes To Plasmodium Falciparum, Louis Lambrechts, Jean Halbert, Patrick Durand, Louis C. Gouagna, Jacob C. Koella Jan 2005

Host Genotype By Parasite Genotype Interactions Underlying The Resistance Of Anopheline Mosquitoes To Plasmodium Falciparum, Louis Lambrechts, Jean Halbert, Patrick Durand, Louis C. Gouagna, Jacob C. Koella

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

Background: Most studies on the resistance of mosquitoes to their malaria parasites focus on the response of a mosquito line or colony against a single parasite genotype. In natural situations, however, it may be expected that mosquito-malaria relationships are based, as are many other host-parasite systems, on host genotype by parasite genotype interactions. In such systems, certain hosts are resistant to one subset of the parasite's genotypes, while other hosts are resistant to a different subset. Methods: To test for genotype by genotype interactions between malaria parasites and their anopheline vectors, different genetic backgrounds (families consisting of the F1 offspring …

Audience Perceptions Of Candidates’ Appropriateness As A Function Of Nonverbal Behaviors Displayed During Televised Political Debates, John S. Seiter, Harry Weger Jr. Jan 2005

Audience Perceptions Of Candidates’ Appropriateness As A Function Of Nonverbal Behaviors Displayed During Televised Political Debates, John S. Seiter, Harry Weger Jr.

Languages, Philosophy, and Communication Studies Faculty Publications

Compared to televised debates using a single-screen format, such debates using a split screen presenting both debaters simultaneously show viewers the nonverbal reactions of each debater's opponent. The authors examined how appropriate or inappropriate such nonverbal behaviors are perceived to be. Students watched one of four versions of a televised debate. One version used a single-screen format, showing only the speaker, whereas the other three versions used a split-screen format in which the speaker's opponent displayed constant, occasional, or no nonverbal disagreement with the speaker. Students then rated the debaters' appropriateness. Analysis indicated that the opponent was perceived to be …

Ethnography As Research Methodology For International Business Studies : Its Complementary Role To The Methodology Based On A Positivistic Paradigm, Noriko Yagi Jan 2005

Ethnography As Research Methodology For International Business Studies : Its Complementary Role To The Methodology Based On A Positivistic Paradigm, Noriko Yagi

Scholarship and Professional Work - Business

A goal of this paper is to introduce ethnography to the Japanese audience as research methodology for international business studies. Ethnography is defined as the study of describing a culture of a group of people. In the United States, ethnography has been established as one of the research methods in organizational studies. This does not apply to Japan, however. Thus, the paper aims to fill the void and inform the Japanese audience about how ethnography can contribute extending our understanding of the complexity of international cross-cultural management. The paper begins with outlining characteristics of ethnography in comparison to research methodology …

New Extremal Self-Dual Doubly-Even Binary Codes Of Length 88, Vanere Goodwin, Vassil Yorgov

College of Health, Science, and Technology

The known structure of the automorphism group of the extended binary quadratic-residue code of length 80 is used for the construction of 36 new extremal doubly-even codes of length 88. All these codes have an automorphism of order five with eight fixed points and are inequivalent to the previously known 34 codes. © 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.


Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design: Crime Free Multi Housing In Arlington, Texas, David Joseph Jusiewicz Jan 2005

Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design: Crime Free Multi Housing In Arlington, Texas, David Joseph Jusiewicz

Criminology & Criminal Justice Theses - Archive

The purpose of this study is to measure and compare calls for service at the apartment communities participating in the Crime Free Multi-Housing Program in the belief that a reduction in calls for service should translate to a reduction in crime. The review of the existing data is a cross-sectional, pre/post study of secondary data using calls for service. This method is preferred as it will represent the actual number of calls handled at each surveyed apartment community. Therefore, the conclusions provided with this data are not based on a complex statistical manipulation rather it provides a snap shot and …

The Role Of Hbcus In The College Choice Process Of African Americans In California, Barbara Tobolowsky, Charles L. Outcalt, Patricia M. Mcdonough

Educational Leadership & Policy Studies Faculty Publications - Archive

The significance of historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) in the educational experience of African American students has been well documented. However, recent court decisions challenge these institutions' continued ability to folfill their historical missions. Therefore, it is more vital than ever to understand the unique role played by HBCUs in the African American community, particularly in the educational plans of students and their families. The current study analyzes interview and focus-group data with African American students, parents, and counselors at 20 southern California high schools. While participants acknowledge that these institutions remain important educational and cultural resources, they also …


A Solvent-Free Baeyer–Villiger Lactonization For The Undergraduate Organic Laboratory: Synthesis Of Γ-T-Butyl-Ε-Caprolactone, John J. Esteb, James N. Hohman, Diana E. Schladaminger, Anne M. Wilson Jan 2005

A Solvent-Free Baeyer–Villiger Lactonization For The Undergraduate Organic Laboratory: Synthesis Of Γ-T-Butyl-Ε-Caprolactone, John J. Esteb, James N. Hohman, Diana E. Schladaminger, Anne M. Wilson

Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS

We present an experiment involving the Baeyer–Villiger oxidation reactionfor a first-year organic chemistry class. The Baeyer–Villiger reactionprovides an efficient method to convert ketones to esters or lactones. Most organictextbooks cover the Baeyer–Villiger reaction but owing to a lack of suitableexperiments, students seldom get to explore the reaction in the undergraduateteaching laboratory. In this experiment, m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid(m-CPBA) and4-tert-butylcyclohexanone are mixed together for 30 minutes under solvent-freeconditions to produce γ-t-butyl-ε-caprolactone in 95%yield. The solvent-free nature of this procedure greatly limits the quantityof waste generated by students and keeps costs low by removing the need for solvent.
