Seasonal Differences In Function Of The Hypothalamic-Hypophysial-Ovarian Axis In Weaned Primiparous Sows, Jeffrey D. Armstrong, J. H. Britt, N. M. Cox Jan 1986

Seasonal Differences In Function Of The Hypothalamic-Hypophysial-Ovarian Axis In Weaned Primiparous Sows, Jeffrey D. Armstrong, J. H. Britt, N. M. Cox

Office of the President Scholarship

Primiparous sows were fed to appetite during lactations that occurred during winter or summer, and 11.4 ± 0.4 pigs per litter were weaned at 23.5 ± 0.1 days of age. Sows were slaughtered at 0 or 72 h after weaning or blood samples were collected until 24 h after onset of oestrus. Sows that lactated during summer consumed less food and lost more (P < 0.05) weight, heartgirth and backfat than those that lactated during winter. Weaning-to-oestrus interval was greater (P < 0.05) in summer (224 ± 25 h) than in winter (93 ± 13 h). Content of GnRH in the hypothalamus and concentrations of LH in the anterior pituitary and serum were lower (P < 0.05)after weaning in summer than winter. The numbers of visible ovarian follicles < 5 mm in diameter at weaning were lower (P < 0.05) in summer than in winter. In contrast to LH, FSH concentration in serum was higher (P < 0.10) in summer than winter, but FSH values in the anterior pituitary were lower (P < 0.05) in summer than in winter. Post-weaning patterns of secretion of oestradiol and follicular development differed between winter and summer. For example, in some sows weaned during the summer, transient surges of oestradiol occurred repeatedly during 0 to 280 h after weaning without provoking surges of LH. These results indicate that the period of post-weaning anoestrus in summer is prolonged because of altered activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, possibly because of changes in sensitivity to the feedback of oestradiol. Lower feed intake during lactations that occur during summer may predispose the endocrine system to the aberrations.

Evaluation Of Two Models For Light Transmission In Biological Materials, R. A. Cavaletto, S. Upadhyaya, M. O'Brien, T. Cahill Dec 1985

Evaluation Of Two Models For Light Transmission In Biological Materials, R. A. Cavaletto, S. Upadhyaya, M. O'Brien, T. Cahill

BioResource and Agricultural Engineering

Two light transmission models for biological materials are developed and evaluated. The energy balance model showed promise. It's developed as a 3 coefficient model permitting varied sample absorption and scattering properties. The second model performed unsatisfactorily.

Helium-4 Solid-Liquid Interface Mobility And Ultrasonic Energy Absorption Mechanisms, M. B. Manning, Matthew J. Moelter, C. Elbaum Dec 1985

Helium-4 Solid-Liquid Interface Mobility And Ultrasonic Energy Absorption Mechanisms, M. B. Manning, Matthew J. Moelter, C. Elbaum

Physics

The first measurements of acoustic reflection, together with acoustic transmission at the solid-liquid interface of 4He, are used to determine the total relative acoustic energy absorption at the interface as a function of temperature. Based on these results, a new mechanism for the temperature dependence of the kinetics of growth and interface mobility is proposed.

Physics Of Some Environmental Aspects Of Energy, David W. Hafemeister Nov 1985

Physics Of Some Environmental Aspects Of Energy, David W. Hafemeister

Physics

Approximate numerical estimates are carried out on the following environmental effects from energy production and conservation: (1) The greenhouse effect caused by increased CO2 in the atmosphere; (2) Loss of coolant accidents in nuclear reactors; (3) Increased radon concentrations in buildings with very low air infiltration rates; (4) Acid rain from the combustion of fossil fuels; and (5) Explosions of liquified natural gas (LNG).


Energy Conservation In Large Buildings, A. Rosenfeld, David W. Hafemeister Nov 1985

Energy Conservation In Large Buildings, A. Rosenfeld, David W. Hafemeister

Physics

As energy prices rise, newly energy aware designers use better tools and technology to create energy efficient buildings. Thus the U.S. office stock (average age 20 years) uses 250 kBTU/ft2 of resource energy, but the guzzler of 1972 uses 500 (up × 2), and the 1986 ASHRAE standards call for 100–125 (less than 25% of their 1972 ancestors). Surprisingly, the first real cost of these efficient buildings has not risen since 1972. Scaling laws are used to calculate heat gains and losses of buildings to obtain the ΔT(free) which can be as large as 15–30 °C (30–60 °F) for …
