Riboflavin Production By Molds, George L. Peltier, Raymond Borchers

Department of Biochemistry: Faculty Publications

Very little information is at hand regarding the ability of molds to synthesize riboflavin. Few citations pertaining directly to riboflavin production by true

molds are available. Pontovich (1943) found as much as 2 mg riboflavin per g

of Aspergillus flavus mycelium. Tanner et at. (1945) determined the quantity of

riboflavin in the submerged fermentation media of Penicillium chrysogenum.

The highest value found was 1. 36 mg per ml. The primary purpose of this study

was to screen several hundred isolates, recently obtained from soil, crop residues,

and composts, for their ability to produce riboflavin on a wheat bran substrate.

The Goss Lemming Mouse, Synaptomys Cooperi Gossii (Goues), In Nebraska, Edson Fichter, Merle F. Hansen

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum (1924–2023)

In the course of studies on the cestode parasites of microtine rodents by one of the authors (Hansen), specimens of mice were sent to the United State National Museum where they were identified by Dr. David H. Johnson. Two of these microtines proved to be Synaptomys cooperi gossii (Coues). These specimens of Synaptomys (U.S.N.M. Nos. 282343 and 282344), collected at Lincoln, Lancaster County, Nebraska, on September 16, 1946 (male) and November 20, 1946 (female), respectively, are the first ones to be identified from Nebraska.

Andrya Sciuri N. Sp., A Cestode From The Northern Flying Squirrel, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Among helminths taken from four northern flying squirrels (Glaucomys sabrinus macrotis Mearns) were two cestodes belonging to the genus Andrya. These represent an undescribed species. The infected flying squirrels were collected in or near tamarack bogs during February, 1947, near Millston, Jackson County, Wisconsin.

A Redescription Of Taenia Taxidiensis Skinker, 1935, Robert Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Since the original description of Taenia taxidiensis Skinker, 1935,2 was based on an incomplete and apparently immature cestode, a redescription seems desirable.

The following description is based on 28 cestodes, taken from three infected badgers, Taxidea taxus (Schreber), all collected in southern Wisconsin. Of these, only one strobila had gravid segments, the others being immature. Most of the data given below are based on the single mature specimen, with additional measurements, where Possible, from the immature worms. No sections were made of these specimens, and the measurements given were taken fl·om stained wholemounts.

The Geologic History Of The Bison In The Great Plains (A Preliminary Report), C. Bertrand Schultz, W. D. Frankforter

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum (1924–2023)

THE GEOLOGIC history of the bison in North America is a subject which has received little attention to date. Osteological rather than geological problems have been the main concern of most writers who have so far published. If the geologic history of the bison is to be learned, it will be necessary to devote more time and effort in the field in determining the age of the deposits in which various specimens have been discovered and in making more extensive collections from deposits of known age. Unfortunately the majority of the type specimens have been surface finds and little attempt …

Pig Typhus (Salmonellosis Suis), L. Van Es

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Salmonellosis suis or pig typhus, also designated as pig typhoid, infectious necrotic enteritis, or "necro," is an infectious disease among young pigs. It constitutes a major factor in the mortality of juvenile swine, and as such must be regarded as a more or less perennial hazard in swine production. Infectious necrotic enteritis caused by Salmonella suipestifer is the subject of the present publication.

Studies On The Validity Of Swine Erysipelas Culture-Vaccines, L. Van Es, J. F. Olney, I. C. Blore

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

In countries where vaccination against swine erysipelas has been practiced during the last half century, there is a consensus among veterinarians that the best results are obtained when the live culture-vaccine is not only fresh and highly virulent but is endowed also with a good capacity for growth on artificial culture media. Apparently avirulent culture-vaccines are apt to engender only a transitory immunity or fail altogether. The problem presented by undesirable culture-vaccines was deemed to be of such importance to the swine industry that this Station undertook a series of experiments, to determine what influences might be accountable for the …

Ec1534 Revised 1946 D D T As A Household Insecticide, Martin Muma

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Extension Circulation 1543 Revised 1946 is called DDT As A Household Insecticide and is about how DDT is showing more promise in the control of many household pests than other materials. The most outstanding feature is its lasting effect. DDT takes a several minutes or even ours to take effect on the pest. It then talks about the effects on flies, mosquitoes, bedbugs, silverfish, cockroaches, fleas, ants, clothes moths, and carpet beetles.

United States Department of Defense Military Intelligence

During World War II, the Ordnance Department was one of the army technical services. There were a number of technical services including the Chemical Warfare Service, the Army Medical Department, the Corps of Engineers, the Quartermaster Corps, the Signal Corps, and the Transportation Corps. The technical services were bureaus providing weapons, equipment, and services to the Army. They managed the careers of officers in their corresponding branches, and organized special military units. They also ran schools to train individual and military units in their specialty.

During World War II the emphasis of technical intelligence was foreign weapons and equipment. The …
