Trimethylselenonium Chloride Metabolism And Toxicity In The Rat, Boyd D. Obermeyer
Trimethylselenonium Chloride Metabolism And Toxicity In The Rat, Boyd D. Obermeyer
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Historically the interest in organic derivatives of selenium has been primarily centered on selenium analogs of sulfur compounds, the selenium analogs of the sulfur-containing amino acids. Experimental studies of the metabo1ism of seleno-organic compounds have been limited to a large extent by their unavailability. Dimethyl selenide is the only organic selenium compound that has been identified as an exhalation product from a laboratory animal injected with an inorganic form of· selenium. Although the toxicity of selenium has been known for many years, the mode of action of the element has remained a mystery. Many investigations on the toxicity of selenium …
Wedge Flows Of Power-Law Fluids, Joseph H. Cothern
Wedge Flows Of Power-Law Fluids, Joseph H. Cothern
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Many solutions exist for the laminar boundary-layer flow of Newtonian fluids. This is verified in literature by Schlichting. However, some fluids do not obey the Newtonian postulate that the stress tensor is directly proportional to the rate of deformation tensor. It is as likely, in fact, that non-Newtonian fluids could be pumped into an industrial complex as the more common Newtonian fluids. This is partly due to the growing use of synthetics and petroleum products in modern day living. The use of non-Newtonian fluids, however, does not have to be limited to problems of internal flow. The fluid in the …

An Inquiry Into School-To-Home Communications Among Selected South Dakota Communities, Larry K. Tennyson
An Inquiry Into School-To-Home Communications Among Selected South Dakota Communities, Larry K. Tennyson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The demand for information about schools is increasing dramatically. War and cancer are the only subjects that claim greater public interest today," according to Leslie J. Stiles, professor of inter-disciplinary studies at Northwestern University. This opinion is shared by others in the field of educational public information, some of whom question the topical-coverage allocation and the display given to educational news by the press and by school officials The contrast between what parents want to know about schools and what is disseminated to them about schools has been described by researchers for nearly forty years. Yet, Stiles says, little progress …
Biological Activity Of Trimethylselenonium-Selenium And Influence Of Vitamin E On Its In Vivo Formation In Rats Using A Torula Yeast Diet, David Ding Tsair Tsay
Biological Activity Of Trimethylselenonium-Selenium And Influence Of Vitamin E On Its In Vivo Formation In Rats Using A Torula Yeast Diet, David Ding Tsair Tsay
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
During recent times, many efforts have been extended to investigate the metabolism of selenium compounds-in microorganisms, animals and plants. Several investigators (1-3) have proposed some hypothetical metabolic pathways for selenium. However, the role of selenium in the life function of animals remains unknown. Liver necrosis, as induced by the feeding of a Torula yeast diet which is unsupplemented with vitamin E and selenium, is known to be a fatal symptom in rats (4-6). The addition of either vitamin E or selenium to the diet is associated with the prevention of this condition. Schwarz (7) has suggested that vitamin E and …

A Study Of Land-Grant University Alumni Magazines And Of Reader Responses To The Montana Collegian Of Montana State University, Jeffrey B. Nelson
A Study Of Land-Grant University Alumni Magazines And Of Reader Responses To The Montana Collegian Of Montana State University, Jeffrey B. Nelson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study was confined to the current state of affairs in alumni publishing at Land-Grant universities, for several reasons. Perhaps the main one is that the author is an alumni editor at one of these universities (Montana State University) and is also an alumnus of another one (South Dakota State University). Brought in from the newspaper field in the summer of 1967 as the Montana Collegian's first "professional" editor, the author had a broad mandate from the president of the institution, from the alumni director and the public relations director. Change the magazine, broaden its coverage and content and improve …

What did Hopp and the Press do for Brookings area development? What type of man was George W. …
The Status Of Journalism In North Dakota High Schools, Neil Rae Mcfadgen
The Status Of Journalism In North Dakota High Schools, Neil Rae Mcfadgen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
With the mass media exerting a tremendous influence on our day-to- day living, scholastic journalism with its emphasis on mass communication becomes a vital part of any high school curriculum. Career literature written about opportunities in journalism strives to motivate the high school student to consider professional journalism as his life' s work. Even though the percentage of high school students who have been active in journalism functions and then elect professional journalism as a career has been small in the past, there has been a decided increase in the college journalism enrollments since the year 1951. According to the …
