Comparison Of The Effects Of Introversion, Extraversion And Anxiety On Conditioning., Hugh Boyd Wicks Jan 1984

Comparison Of The Effects Of Introversion, Extraversion And Anxiety On Conditioning., Hugh Boyd Wicks

All ETDs from UAB

Extraversion, anxiety, and two different experimental conditions were varied independently in a 2 x 2 x 2 study of eyeblink conditioning and extinction. The Eysenck Personality Inventory and the Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scale were given to 167 college students of both sexes to measure individual differences in extraversion and anxiety, respectively. Students who scored in the upper or lower quartiles on these tests were classified as either anxious extraverts, non-anxious extraverts, anxious introverts, or non-anxious introverts. Subjects learned under one or the other of two sets of conditions. One set--partial reinforcement, low UCS strength, and short CS-UCS interval--is expected to …

The Electrical Stimulation Of Bone Formation., Elie K. Chamoun Jan 1984

The Electrical Stimulation Of Bone Formation., Elie K. Chamoun

All ETDs from UAB

In 1957 Fukada demonstrated that bone has piezoelectric properties, that is, bone produces electric current and potential in response to mechanical forces. The same phenomena were reported in 1962 by Bassett who found that the potentials developed in the area of compression were negative, and positive in the area of tension. In 1968 Cochran performed experiments on wet bone as well as in vivo experiments on cats. There was no difference between the potential patterns from dead or living bone in response to a mechanical force. In 1971 Marino suggested that collagen was the source of a piezoelectric potential.

The identification of individual source is one of the main objectives of the forensic serologist when analyzing blood, bloodstains, or other body fluids. Certainly, the more we know about a specific blood sample, the more we can learn about an alleged criminal act. All individuality is due to variations between people or things, and blood is no exception (Sensabaugh, 1982). Numerous enzymes and other proteins occur in various forms in the blood and other body fluids. These different forms of proteins in a population (polymorphism) exhibit demonstrable genetic variation.

Frequently the need to identify or exclude an individual arises in criminal cases. Historically, fingerprinting has been a universally acceptable method of individual identification. Unfortunately, fingerprints are not always found at the crime scene ; therefore, other methods for identification of an individual are needed. One of these is the typing of body fluids, particularly blood, for genetic markers that may distinguish one individual from another.

Localization Of Fc Receptors On Murine Spermatozoa., John Lawrence Hinton Jan 1984

Localization Of Fc Receptors On Murine Spermatozoa., John Lawrence Hinton

All ETDs from UAB

Studies on the localization of acrosomal enzymes have shown that a heat stable component in non-immune serum binds to the acrosomal region of spermatozoa of a number of species (Weil and Finkler, 1959; Edwards, 1960). Beck et al. (1962) demonstrated by immunofluorescent techniques that this serum component is an immunoglobulin molecule and it can bind to both the acrosome and tail region of homologous and heterologous spermatozoa. Symons and Herbert (1971) characterized it as IgG in the mouse, while Johnson (1968) showed it to be IgG2 in the guinea pig. IgM and IgA do not show detectable binding to mammalian …

Flow Injection Analysis Of Sulfur Dioxide., Thomas Hughes Jan 1984

Flow Injection Analysis Of Sulfur Dioxide., Thomas Hughes

All ETDs from UAB

The objective of this study was to develop an automated and microprocessor-controlled flow injection analysis system for sulfur dioxide using a West-Gaeke method. Two systems were developed for this purpose: The first system allowed continuous reagent flow into the carrier stream, while the second system allowed programmed injection of reagent into the carrier stream.

Fundulus Grandis Response To Exogenous Lh Injection., Mary Claire Reddington Jan 1984

Fundulus Grandis Response To Exogenous Lh Injection., Mary Claire Reddington

All ETDs from UAB

Piscine responsiveness to exogenous mammalian gonadotropin injection was assessed in Fundulus grandis, the Gulf killifish. Responsiveness was measured through the reproductive parameters of plasma sex steriod levels (estrogen for the female and testosterone for the male animals) as well as gonadalsomatic indexes, GSI. Females were also evaluated on the microscopic and macroscopic appearance of the ovary. Injections of ovine luteinizing hormone (o-LH) were made at different times of the day (early, midday, and late) as well as during times of differing reproductive condition (different times of the year). Additionally, a dose response curve to the o-LH was determined on both …

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 …
