Algin/Calcium Gels In Solid-Muscle Structured Beef Steaks, Roger C. Johnson Jan 1988

Algin/Calcium Gels In Solid-Muscle Structured Beef Steaks, Roger C. Johnson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Alteration of the inherent characteristics of less preferred beef carcass portions to produce products with greater consumer appeal has been the ultimate goal of structured meat research. Consumer acceptance of structured products has been limited because of (1) low retail visibility, (2) diet/health concerns due to salt addition, and (3) undesirable uncooked product appearance due to discoloration and lack of fiber orientation. Development of solid-muscle structured products would alleviate these limitations and the negative influence the less desirable carcass portions have on total carcass value. Efficacy of a binding gel containing various concentrations of algin/calcium (Alg/Ca) and adipic acid (Ad) …

No Time For Tears : A Look At Death In The Salinas Valley Novels Of John Steinbeck, Bill Anderson Jan 1988

No Time For Tears : A Look At Death In The Salinas Valley Novels Of John Steinbeck, Bill Anderson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Robert F. Weir, in Death in Literature, begins his study by writing about "a Buddhist parable which nicely illustrates the inevitability of death and the perennial problem of accepting death as a fact of human existence". A Buddhist woman, distraught over the death of her child, seeks help from Buddha, who instructs her to collect mustard seeds from any house where death has not occurred. Full of hope because she thinks she will find such a house, she embarks on her task only to learn that death strikes every family; finally she accepts the death of her son. Weir then …

Reproductive Performance Of Anestrous Crossbred Ewes Subjected To Artificial Photoperiod Or Melatonin, Kelly Ann Weiskircher Jan 1988

Reproductive Performance Of Anestrous Crossbred Ewes Subjected To Artificial Photoperiod Or Melatonin, Kelly Ann Weiskircher

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Sheep are seasonal breeders exhibiting estrus in the fall with the decreasing daylength. This characteristic limits the reproductive performance of the ewe. With the decreasing daylength, melatonin is produced by the pineal gland. This hormone is thought to trigger the onset of estral activity. The study herein attempted to alter this seasonal fertility pattern by subjecting ewes to artificial photoperiod and through the oral administration of melatonin and a melatonin ear implant. The lambs in this experiment were born during late fall which is more favorable than the normal lambing season for the survival rate and growth performance of the …

Production Of Triploid Rainbow Trout For Evaluation In South Dakota Waters, Jeff C. Dillon Jan 1988

Production Of Triploid Rainbow Trout For Evaluation In South Dakota Waters, Jeff C. Dillon

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In September 1986, approximately 50,000 rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) eggs were fertilized and subjected to heat shocks to prevent expulsion of the second polar body, theoretically resulting in triploid embryos. Heat shocks were at 26 and 28°c, began 10, 20, 30, or 40 min after fertilization, and lasted for 10 or 20 min for a total of 16 treatments. Another 25,000 eggs served as controls and were handled identically but at a normal water temperature of 12°c. Cumulative hatching rates for eggs that were heat-shocked at 26 and 28° were 64 and 50%, respectively, compared to control eggs which had …

Control Of Downy Brome With Combinations Of Bay-Smy-1500 And Metribuzin, James R. Smart Jan 1988

Control Of Downy Brome With Combinations Of Bay-Smy-1500 And Metribuzin, James R. Smart

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.) is a severe weed problem in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) throughout North America. Downy brome competes for space, light, nutrients in the soil, and most importantly moisture. Rydrych reported that a grower with reasonable control of downy brome can increase yield of winter wheat 6-12 bushels per acre. The lack of selective herbicides which control downy brome in winter wheat and conservation tillage practices have contributed to the spread of downy brome. Some herbicides labeled for downy brome control in winter wheat require incorporation. Incorporation of herbicides may not be compatible with reduced or …

Serum Progesterone Levels As A Means To Study Reproductive Function In Female Lethal Yellow Mice (Ay/A; C57bl/6j), Jon Andrew Gonsor Jan 1988

Serum Progesterone Levels As A Means To Study Reproductive Function In Female Lethal Yellow Mice (Ay/A; C57bl/6j), Jon Andrew Gonsor

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This research concentrated on the reproductive problem associated with the Ay. Granholm and Breck reported that lethal yellow females never produced more than three litters when put into production at puberty. Ay/a females are as reproductively efficient as their a/a littermates at a young age. Ay/a females progressively become obese and reproductively senescent beyond the age of 120 days. The obese Ay/a females beyond 120 days exhibit lower uterine weights and depressed ovulation. Upon treatment with exogenous pituitary gonadotropins, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (IH), the reproductively senescent AY/S! females' ovulatory rates were restored to near control levels. …

Development Of An Analytical Method For The Trace Determination Of Mycophenolic Acid By High Performance Liquid Chromatography Following Extraction Of The Compound From Feedstuffs, Tesfamichael Zeccarias Kahsai Jan 1988

Development Of An Analytical Method For The Trace Determination Of Mycophenolic Acid By High Performance Liquid Chromatography Following Extraction Of The Compound From Feedstuffs, Tesfamichael Zeccarias Kahsai

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Mycophenolic acid is toxic to animals consuming it beyond a certain level and possesses antitumor activity. Not many methods for its trace analysis in feedstuffs and agricultural products have been reported. Thus, it is desirable to develop a standard analytical technique for such important compounds. The purpose of this investigation is to develop a technique or method sensitive enough to determine trace quantities of the compound. The method developed is based on solvent extraction from feedstuffs and detection by high performance liquid chromatography. Solvent extraction methods have given good results with low background interferences when cleaned up by column chromatography …

South Dakota Periodicals Index: 1982-1986, Clark N. Hallman, Mary E. Caspers, Lisa F. Lister, Deb Gilchrist

Hilton M. Briggs Library Faculty Publications

The South Dakota Periodicals Index is a subject and author index to selected periodicals and annuals published in South Dakota. Its purpose is to facilitate the location of information about the people, places, events, and issues that make South Dakota a special place. As reference librarians at South Dakota State University we are aware of the difficulty of finding specific information about South Dakota. National periodical indexes provide very limited coverage of South Dakota, and it is not unusual to search through many different indexes without finding a single reference to the state.

Pik Certificates And Cattle Feeding, Donald Peterson Jan 1987

Pik Certificates And Cattle Feeding, Donald Peterson

South Dakota Beef Report, 1987

The primary objective of this study was to determine the optimal cooking rate and endpoint temperature of a precooking regime for beef roasts which maximizes consumer acceptability and storage stability. Percentage cooking loss and TEA values were minimized when roasts were precooked to the lowest endpoint temperature (45 C, 112 F). I n addition, long-term cooking (heating rate = 16 min/C) improved TEA values (Thiobarbituric acid, a test for oxidative rancidity) for precooked beef roasts. Sensory qualities did not differ (P>.05) due to cooking rate or endpoint temperature. Findings suggest that a low-temperature long-term cooking method optimizes (Pc.05) cooking …

Evaluation Of Varying Levels Of Hereford, Simmental And Angus Breeding Cows, D.M. Marshall, C.A. Dinkel

South Dakota Beef Report, 1987

Cow size, reproductive performance and calf performance to weaning were evaluated for Simmental-Hereford cows (25 to 38% Hereford) mated to Hereford bulls, Simmental-Hereford cows (50% Hereford) mated to Hereford bulls, Simmental-Hereford cows (62-7!5% Hereford) mated to Simmental bulls, Angus-Hereford cows (25.38% Hereford) mated to Hereford bulls, Angus-Hereford cows (50% Hereford) mated to Hereford bulls and Angus-Hereford cows (62-75% Hereford) mated to Angus bulls. Simmental cross cows were heavier and taller and produced heavier calves at b i r t h and weaning than Angus cross cows. Pregnancy rate, calf preweaning survival rate and calf birth date did not vary significantly …
