Gallium-67 tumor scanning is widely employed in the clinical detection and staging of a broad range of solid tumors and malignant lymphomas. As a basis for understanding the molecular mechanism of gallium localization in tumor cells, the aqueous chemistry of gallium(III) was investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Specifically, these studies include: characterization under various experimental conditions (pH, concentration, temperature etc.) of gallium citrate complexes, of gallium phosphate complexes, and of gallium complexes with EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetate), NTA (nitrilotriacetic acid) and lactate etc. The results of these studies demonstrate that all the agents which inhibit in vitro gallium-67 uptake by …

Corrosion has long been recognized as a problem with synthetic, metallic materials for applications in biological environments. This is one of the main reasons type 316L stainless steel and Ti-6Al-4V ELI-grade alloy have emerged as two of the more widely used metallic biomaterials. In recent years with more and more use of metallic implants in patients of younger ages, the time interval over which the implants must function has doubled or tripled.

The hyperactive syndrome is marked by symptomatic patterns of excessive non-goal-directed motor activity, short attention span, easy distractibility, impulsivity, and associated learning and behavioral problems (Satterfield, Cantwell, and Satterfield, 1974). The syndrome is observed early in life and is more common among boys. The child seldom completes a task and frequently shifts from one activity to another (Marwit and Stenner, 1972).

The Uniform Hanging Cable As A Translational Vibration Absorber., Charles W. Springfield Jr
All ETDs from UAB
The small, lateral vibrations of a system consisting of a uniform cable suspended from a mass in a gravitational field and having a lower end mass are considered in this thesis. The frequencies and modal configurations for free vibration were determined. Secondly, a harmonically varying forcing function was applied to the upper mass for the purpose of studying the forced motion of the system. Finally, it was shown that by proper selection of the cable length, the cable-lower mass system can serve as a dynamic vibration absorber for the forced upper mass.

The study of audition has in recent years shifted from the investigation of noise bursts, clicks, and simple tones to that of more complex multicomponent tones and their interrelationships. Early research in auditory processes assumed the simplest form, wherein such parameters as frequency, amplitude, and duration of a simple stimulus were investigated. Although sound sources in the environment rarely generate simple waveforms, the research was relevant in establishing the foundation on which current auditory research of complex tones is based. The auditory system functions in a natural environment where a variety of noises, speech sounds, and music comprises the source …
Effect Of Hand Dominance On Rate Of Learning And Bilateral Transfer., Memory Hammond Gleason
Effect Of Hand Dominance On Rate Of Learning And Bilateral Transfer., Memory Hammond Gleason
All ETDs from UAB
People generally have a dominant and a nondominant hand. Dominance refers to the ability to perform a task better with a particular hand [Hand preference does not necessarily mean hand dominance] (Rigal, 1974). For example, a child may show tendencies to be left hand dominant; however, his parents may insist that he use his right hand. As he grows older, he will use his right hand as his preferred hand, but in fact his left hand will be dominant. It would be advantageous to determine true dominance in order to provide more optimal learning conditions.It has been well established (Cook, …

A Biochemical And Biophysical Comparison Of Fetal And Adult Bovine Liver Plasma Membranes., Jesse J. Edwards
All ETDs from UAB
A combination of the techniques of differential and zonal centrifugation were used to isolate high purity fractions of plasma membrane fragments from homogenates of adult and 5 month fetal bovine liver. Discontinuous sucrose density gradients were used during zonal centrifugation which yielded two fractions of plasma membrane from each source. In both the adult and fetal samples a light plasma membrane fraction banded at 33 percent sucrose, density 1.146, while a heavier fraction was found at 38 percent sucrose, density 1.172.The plasma membrane fractions were identified by enzymatic analyses of (Na+ +K+ )-ATPase and 5’-nucleotidase activities. Following purification of the …
The Optimum Design Of A Step Voltage Regulator., Kenneth M. Mcwilliams
The Optimum Design Of A Step Voltage Regulator., Kenneth M. Mcwilliams
All ETDs from UAB
Optimum designs of voltage regulating transformers can be achieved only when the designer knows the characteristics of the different design parameters and how they affect the total design. The criteria controlling the design of most voltage regulating transformers are not readily available since this information is usually found in company files or the files of individual design engineers. The criteria used are often based on the experience of these engineers and in many cases have never been verified. This thesis presents some of the common design parameters for voltage regulating transformers and computer generated data showing how the total design …

It is well known that mutant genes and environmental agents acting alone will induce developmental malformations. Within the past twenty-five years, more attention has been given to the interaction of the whole genome and specific mutant genes with either chemical or physical teratogens. Results of such studies have been reported in chickens, Drosophila and mammals (Landauer, '48, '60, '65; Goldschmidt and Piternick, '57; Barber, '59; Beck, '63, '64; Dagg, '66, '67, '72; Forsthoefel, '72, '75; Johnson, '70; Hamburgh et al., '70; Winfield and Bennett, '71; Musgrove, '73). Based on these investigations, several generalizations have been made concerning gene-teratogen interactions: (1) …

Ultrasonic Attenuation In As-Deposited Inconel 182 Weld Metal And Recommended Techniques For Discontinuity Evaluation., Richard Lamar Lawrence
All ETDs from UAB
This thesis reports on a study of the problems associated with the ultrasonic evaluation of full penetration welds in pressure retaining bi-metallic and tri-metallic joints involving as-deposited austenitic weld material. The weld joint design was one simulating a component on a nuclear reactor known as a safe-end-to-nozzle. Because the joint is part of a nuclear reactor, explicit design requirements are set forth by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III. Furthermore, ultrasonic examination guidelines are prescribed in ASME Sections III and XI.

Preaxial polydactyly is one of the most frequent limb anomalies in man, and sporadically occurs in poultry, pigeons, and in the hindlimbs of cats, dogs, mice and guinea pigs (Carter, 1954). Polydactyly is detectable by the stage of footplate morphogenesis, but it is inducible before hind-limb bud formation by irradiation of mouse embryos at 8 and 9 days of development (Russell, 1950). Russell's observations are significant because they suggest that polydactyly results from more than minor local disturbances of footplate morphogenesis.

Production Of Ultra-Thick Sodium Nitroprusside Absorbers For The Determination Of Mã¶Ssbauer Transmission Integral Parameters., George Phillips O'Brien
All ETDs from UAB
At the 1974 Moessbauer Methodology Symposium, a paper by Agresti et al., introduced a novel method for determining recoil-free fractions, namely, the spectra of a series of thicknesses of absorbers are fitted simultaneously under a least squares minimization criterion to the transmission integral. This technique, when applied to 151Eu (source) and EU2O3 (absorber) to determine their recoil-free fractions, produced internally consistent values for these parameters. However, verification of the values obtained was not easily accomplished due to the lack of literature for comparison. It has been the objective of the research reported here to make a series of absorbers which …

Curvature Contingent Color Aftereffects., John Fred Whirley
Curvature Contingent Color Aftereffects., John Fred Whirley
All ETDs from UAB
This paper will deal with curvature contingent color aftereffects (AE), a development from the pattern contingent aftereffects reported by Celeste McCollough (1965). After McCollough’s findings are described briefly, the relative importance of spatial frequency characteristics in inducing AE will be discussed. Then attention will be given to AE contingent on direction of curvature of curved line patterns (Riggs, 1973). Riggs’ explanation will be contrasted with those of other authors who attempt to explain his curvature AE in terms of orientation contingency reported in the earlier studies. The lack of attention given to possible frequency interaction in curvature studies is discussed, …

Concerning The Dedekind Cut Proposition., Condi C. Hosey
All ETDs from UAB
The purpose of this thesis is to prove the Dedekind Cut Proposition using two axioms and a few basic definitions. The Dedekind Cut Proposition states that if H and K are two subsets of the arc AB such that each point of AB belongs to H or K in the order from A to B on AB, then either H has a last point or K has a first point in that order.
