Fatty Liver-Hemorrhagic Syndrome (Flhs) In Caged Laying Hens, Richard A. Nelson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A series of eleven experiments was conducted with caged laying hens to study the effects of diet and strain on production and fat accumulation in the liver. In Experiments 1 to 4, a normal ad libitum feeding regime was used, while in Experiments 5 to 11, a force-feeding technique was used as a procedure to increase the incidence of FLHS. Four commercial hybrid strains and a straightbred SCWL (Regional Control) strain were utilized in this study. Choline supplementation at 1500 mg/kg of diet increased egg production from 1 to 11% while decreasing total liver lipid as much as 50%. Supplementation …
C.S. Lewis's Interplanetary Trilogy: "An Imaginative Realization Of Doctrine", Marcia K. Houtman
C.S. Lewis's Interplanetary Trilogy: "An Imaginative Realization Of Doctrine", Marcia K. Houtman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, and That Hideous Strength are, in a sense, escape fiction; but they are also much more than that. Lewis's Christianity is something that cannot be separated from his fiction; although he perhaps did not begin writing the trilogy with the idea of making it a Christian apologetic and, in fact, claimed that he never started writing anything with a moral in mind, his faith was so completely a part of him that it could not help expressing itself even when he did not have that intention in mind. According to Austin Farrer in his …

Dicamba Use In Relationship To Drift Injury On Soybeans In Southeastern South Dakota, Duane E. Auch
Dicamba Use In Relationship To Drift Injury On Soybeans In Southeastern South Dakota, Duane E. Auch
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The benefits of using herbicides have been demonstrated repeatedly, but less is known about the risks involved in the use of herbicides. Any herbicide movement out of its field of application increases the potential damage to sensitive plants and animals. Herbicides more through the air by herbicide drift. Spraying equipment, application methods, and spray additives have been developed to reduce the amount of drift. Unfortunately, none have been shown to eliminate drift without reducing herbicide effectiveness. Dicamba (3,6-dichloro-o-anisic acid) has the potential to cause drift injury. Dicamba controls certain broadleaf weeds in corn (Zea mays L.), small grain, and pasture, …
The Transmission Of Mycobacterium Avium Among Swine: An Immunologic And Bacteriologic Study, Steven R. Ellsworth
The Transmission Of Mycobacterium Avium Among Swine: An Immunologic And Bacteriologic Study, Steven R. Ellsworth
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Mycobacterium Avium is the major cause of tuberculosis in swine (53). The natural reservoir of this organism is assumed to be birds, particularly poultry. Federal meat inspection records show that efforts to reduce tuberculosis in poultry over the last 55 years have resulted in an accompanying decline of tuberculosis in swine (54). Studies have shown, however, that M. avium infection in swine cannot always be traced to birds, and the disease is common in those regions where tuberculosis in poultry is rare (53). Also serotypes not normally pathogenic for birds are commonly isolated from swine (40, 51, 53). Indeed, many …
Sodium Bentonite, Sodium Bicarbonate And Limestone Supplementation In High-Concentrate Diets For Ruminants, Barry Howard Dunn
Sodium Bentonite, Sodium Bicarbonate And Limestone Supplementation In High-Concentrate Diets For Ruminants, Barry Howard Dunn
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In the past several years, there has been increased interest in what has been referred to by some as the two-phase feeding of ruminants. This includes backgrounding, when animals are fed diets high in roughage during a growing period, followed by high-grain feeding during a relatively short finishing period. An interim period of grain adaptation, usually 2 to 3 weeks in length, is necessary in this feeding system to avoid the deleterious effects of the rumen acidosis associated with abrupt changes from predominantly roughage diets to high-grain diets. Feedlot performance during this adaptation phase is generally lower than desired. The …

Methods of analysis for insecticides and PCB’s included column, thin-layer and gas—liquid chromatography and atomic absorption spectrophotometry for metals. DDE was the most prevalent residue, being detected in 93% of all samples ad averaging 66% of the total residues in the carcass.
In Vitro Analysis Of Pre- And Early Postimplantation Development Of Lethal Yellow (Ay/Ay) Mouse Embryos, Linda L. Johnson
In Vitro Analysis Of Pre- And Early Postimplantation Development Of Lethal Yellow (Ay/Ay) Mouse Embryos, Linda L. Johnson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The dominant AY gene of the agouti locus (linkage group V) in the house mouse (Muse musculus) is one of approximately eleven alleles specifying coat color. Homozygosity of the AY allele is thought to cause death of the embryo in utero around the time of implantation. For this reason the AY/AY genotype is called the lethal yellow mouse. The precise time that the primary gene defect is first expressed is not known. Attempts to pinpoint the phenocritical period in an effort to discover the basic biochemical alteration specified by the lethal gene have thus far …

Solvent Extraction Of Chromium By Salicylic, Thiosalicylic, And Phthalic Acids, Dennis G. Sebastian
Solvent Extraction Of Chromium By Salicylic, Thiosalicylic, And Phthalic Acids, Dennis G. Sebastian
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The use of salicylic, thiosalicycle, and phthalic acids as chelating agents for the extraction of Cr(III) from aqueous solution was investigated. Normal butanol was selected as a solvent due to its relatively low solubility in the aqueous phase. Heating of the metal-ligand mixture was necessary to accelerate complex formation. The efficiency of the extraction process was found to be dependent upon pH, heating duration, and the choice of buffer systems. The % extraction was reduced using some buffer systems due to the formation of non-extractable complexes with chromium. A potassium hydrogen phthalate buffer system was found to yield the highest …
