Perceptions And Attitudes Of College Science Students Regarding Carrers In Clinical Laobratory Science, Maureen L. Doran
Theses
Histology as a career offers many challenging and diverse job opportunities but few qualified applicants pursue this vocation. The purpose of this research was to collect data to identify factors impacting this problem. The study investigated the awareness, attitudes and perceptions of community college and university science students towards laboratory health science and histology as a career option. The goal was to develop strategies to identify and recruit potential individuals who are qualified for the histology profession. The researcher surveyed 15 undergraduate science classes from two community colleges and one university in the Midwest. The community colleges and university surveyed …

Identification Of Phytochemical Constituents Of Aegle Marmelos Responsible For Antimicrobial Activity Against Selected Pathogenic Organisms, D. Venkatesan, C. M. Karrunakarn, S. Selva Kumar, P. T. Palani Swamy
Ethnobotanical Leaflets
Antimicrobial activity and phytochemical constituents of an ethanolic extract of Aegle marmelos were investigated. The phytochemical screening of the crude extract revealed the presence of Alkaloids, Cardiac glycosides, Terpenoids, Saponins, Tannis, Flavonoids, and Steroids. The crude ethanolic extract was tested for antimicrobial activity against gram positive organisms of Bacillus subtilis (NCIM: 3471), Staphylococcus aureus (NCIM: 2079), gram negative Escherichia coli (NCIM: 2065) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (NCIM: 2200) at different concentrations levels of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 mg/ml. At the 2.5 mg/ml concentration, gram negative Escherichia coli exhibits a zone of inhibition about 25.7mm; Pseudomonas aeruginosa 19.9mm; gram positive …

Ethnobotanical Leaflets
A dry, whole plant of Vernonia ambigua Kotschy and Peyr was collected from Suleja, Niger State, Nigeria and qualitatively screened for the presence of secondary metabolites using standard methods. Some proximate compositions were also determined. The result showed the presence of alkaloid, tannin, saponin, flavonoid and carbohydrate while terpene, sterol, anthraquinone, phlobatannin, resin, cardiac glycoside, balsam, phenols and volatile oil were not detected. The result of proximate analysis which includes ash value, acid-insoluble ash value, water and alcohol extractive values are reported. Crude extracts of the plant were screened for activity against selected microorganisms. The result is also reported. This …

Drug research has enriched human life in many ways. The health care and resulting social and economic benefits of new drugs to society are most remarkable, are quite well recognized. Drug research has been the driving force for many basic scientific developments, such as that of many new synthetic methods, of the understanding of the physiology and pharmacology of biological systems and has contributed much too molecular recognition. The Uttarakhand Himalayas have a great wealth of medicinal plants and traditional medicinal knowledge. The medicinal plant that has been widely used as veterinary ethno-medicine in Uttarakhand region has been studied. These …

Saturated Lipid Sources In Feeds For Sunshine Bass: Alterations In Production Performance And Tissue Fatty Acid Composition, Jesse T. Trushenski
Saturated Lipid Sources In Feeds For Sunshine Bass: Alterations In Production Performance And Tissue Fatty Acid Composition, Jesse T. Trushenski
Publications
Feeds rich in saturated (SFAs) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) appear to maximize the retention of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in the fillets of sunshine bass (female white bass Morone chrysops × male striped bass M. saxatilis). To determine whether different sources of SFA and MUFA have equivalent effects on tissue fatty acid (FA) profile change, coconut (CO) and palm oils(PO) were evaluated as partial and complete substitutes for fish oil (FO) in feeds for juvenile sunshine bass. After 8 weeks of culture, the production performance of all groups was within the acceptable range for sunshine bass; however, …
Resisting Anti-Intellectualism And Promoting Legal Literacy, Leonard J. Long
Resisting Anti-Intellectualism And Promoting Legal Literacy, Leonard J. Long
Southern Illinois University Law Journal
Professor Long urges everyone involved in legal education, including professors, lawyers, students, and judges, to ask just one question: Of what use is a law school education? Those involved with law school educations should strive to be intellectually curious and well-rounded in education, and not to maintain the narrow view of simply “training lawyers.” For the benefit of society, consumers of legal services, lawyers, and law firms, we must encourage the pursuit of legal literacy. Law students should be encouraged to explore American literature and traditions of Anglo-American law to facilitate their legal literacy and to become cultural elitists. Students …
Is It Time? Reform Of “Don’T Ask, Don’T Tell” And Article 125 Of The Uniform Code Of Military Justice, Levi Bennett
Is It Time? Reform Of “Don’T Ask, Don’T Tell” And Article 125 Of The Uniform Code Of Military Justice, Levi Bennett
Southern Illinois University Law Journal
In 1993 Congress enacted a statutory ban on military service by open homosexuals. President Obama has pledged that this ban will be repealed. A variety of issues arise as a result of this planned repeal, including whether the presence of open homosexuals will have a negative impact on good order and discipline in military units. This Comment discusses these issues and argues that Congress should repeal the current ban and grant regulatory power over service by open homosexuals to the Department of Defense. This Comment also briefly discusses Article 125 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice penalizing sodomy, and …

Ontogenetic Patterns Of Agonistic Behavior In A Guild Of Larval Ambystomatid Salamanders, Cy L. Mott, Donald W. Sparling
Ontogenetic Patterns Of Agonistic Behavior In A Guild Of Larval Ambystomatid Salamanders, Cy L. Mott, Donald W. Sparling
Publications
Agonistic behavior is a common feature of larval amphibians inhabiting temporary ponds. Given the temporally staggered sequence of hatching by pond-breeding amphibians, ontogenetic patterns of aggression can influence coexistence if larvae of certain species or ages are subject to increased aggression. To determine whether aggression changes through larval ontogeny, we observed agonistic behavior of Ambystoma opacum, Ambystoma tigrinum, and Ambystoma maculatum at four stages of development spanning the larval period. We tracked aggression rates among individual larvae to determine whether previous success, in the form of increased aggression, facilitated success in subsequent contests. All species exhibited distinct ontogenetic …

Seed Germination, Foliar Vestiture And Stem Anatomical Features Of Urena Lobata L. (Malvaceae): An Ethnobotanical And/Or Ethnomedicinal Plant Genetic Resource In Nigeria, Gordian C. Obute, Tessy O. Nwaru
Ethnobotanical Leaflets
The seed germination enhancement, foliar vestiture studies and stem anatomical features of Urena lobata L. were investigated against the backdrop of its ethnobotanical and ethnomedicinal applications. Results show that the plant branches profusely thus yielding much of the vegetative parts used for various purposes. Germination of the seeds was enhanced by mechanical scarification and sulphuric acid treatments and the acid treatment elicited greater effects than the mechanical scarification. Leaf morphology especially the type and depth of lobes varied within the species while stellate and sharply pointed trichomes were observed on the abaxial and adaxial foliar surfaces. The possible roles of …
