Education And Public Health In Mexico And Saudi Arabia: 1950 - 1980., Harry Griggs Hamilton Jan 1983

Education And Public Health In Mexico And Saudi Arabia: 1950 - 1980., Harry Griggs Hamilton

All ETDs from UAB

This paper reviews social policy and its effect on education and public health in Mexico and Saudi Arabia during the period from 1950 to 1980. A case study approach is employed to test the hypothesis that both Mexican and Saudi Arabian social policy was patterned after the Western European model of modernization, and that this emulation approach limited the effectiveness of education and public health efforts as measured by literacy rates, educational level, replacement of expatriates (only in Saudi Arabia), life expectancy, nutritional level, and incidence of disease associated with underdevelopment. It is argued that this approach was inefficient both …

The Role Of Flagellates In Coke-Plant Activated Sludge., Alan L. Mullins Jan 1983

The Role Of Flagellates In Coke-Plant Activated Sludge., Alan L. Mullins

All ETDs from UAB

The activated sludge process is used by the coal-coking industry to treat toxic substances from the wastewater generated by the coking process. High levels of ammonia, phenol, cyanide, and thiocyanate are removed from the wastewater by the activity of a mixed microbial community. Though the microbes efficiently remove the toxic compounds, they in turn create a problem: the removal of the biomass that is generated in the degradation of these compounds. The transport and disposal of the excess sludge results in what is possibly the largest cost factor in the activated sludge treatment of wastewater.Because the microbial community is essential …

A Study Of Asymmetry In Mosquitofish Populations In Polluted And Nonpolluted Environments Using A New Scale Staining Technique., J Mark Brubaker Jan 1983

A Study Of Asymmetry In Mosquitofish Populations In Polluted And Nonpolluted Environments Using A New Scale Staining Technique., J Mark Brubaker

All ETDs from UAB

Levels of fluctuating asymmetry were compared in two populations of mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis) from polluted waters and two populations from nonpolluted waters. Two of the characters studied, pectoral fin rays and lateral line scales, showed no asymmetry in these populations and therefore provided no data for comparisons. A third character, number of pores in the lateral line scales, showed asymmetry in all populations. Asymmetry was quantified in two ways: the absolute difference between counts on left and right sides Id I, and the number of asymmetrical scale pairs, ASP. ASP provided a more sensitive measure of asymmetry than did |d| …

The Effect Of Nutritional Conditions On Floc Formation In Zoogloea Ramigera., Johanna M. White

All ETDs from UAB

The formation of bacterial flocs is of crucial importance in the activated sludge process of biological system, treatment waste treatment. In such a generally begins with the settling of large suspended solids from the influent wastewater. The liquid is then channeled into the reaction basin where soluble organic compounds undergo degradation, which is primarily accomplished by the metabolic activity of bacteria, though fungi, algae and protozoa may contribute to the process. Vigorous agitation facilitates contact between substrate molecules and microbes, and aeration maintains the necessary oxygen tension to sustain the aerobic organisms pertinent to the process. During this stage of …


Restraint As A Predictor Of Intake Patterns Among Obese Women., Shauna Marie Laughna Jan 1982

Restraint As A Predictor Of Intake Patterns Among Obese Women., Shauna Marie Laughna

All ETDs from UAB

Obesity is a label that has different meanings. Sims (1979) has outlined three definitions of obesity. The first is the social definition, based upon visual perception of the individual being labelled. The second is the statistical definition, based upon a population norm and typically specifying the upper 5-20% of what- ever criterion is being used.

Synthesis Of Protected Amino Alcohols And Amino Aldehydes., Charles Freeman Stanfield Jan 1981

Synthesis Of Protected Amino Alcohols And Amino Aldehydes., Charles Freeman Stanfield

All ETDs from UAB

Muscle degeneration and wasting in muscular dystrophy (MD) has been shown to be associated with high levels of proteolytic enzymes called Cathepsins. Antipain and leupeptin, naturally occurring peptide aldehydes, have been shown to be of possible therapeutic value in treatment of MD. The cost of these compounds, however, has made large scale clinical studies impossible. The purpose of this work was to develop a general synthesis of protected amino acid aldehydes, and to apply this methodology to the total synthesis of antipain.An efficient, general method for the synthesis of protected amino acid aldehydes was developed. The key intermediates in the …
