Picture Images Of Girls And Women In Children's Literature, Diane M. Turner-Bowker Jan 1988

Picture Images Of Girls And Women In Children's Literature, Diane M. Turner-Bowker

Open Access Dissertations

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the underlying meanings conveyed by media images to preschool age children in three samples of award-winning picture books. One general hypothesis was that female characters would be underrepresented in illustrations found in children's picture books relative to male characters. A second hypothesis was that female characters would more often be portrayed in subordinate and degrading images than male characters. It was predicted that girls/women would be presented more often than boys/men in traditional and passive roles, shorter, below, behind, in deference (bent over, head tilted), as objects of ownership (arm-lock, shoulder-hold, …


"Dear Uncle George" Ezra Pound's Letters To Congressman Tinkham Of Massachusetts, Philip J. Burns Jan 1988

"Dear Uncle George" Ezra Pound's Letters To Congressman Tinkham Of Massachusetts, Philip J. Burns

Open Access Dissertations

Ezra Pound's correspondence with Congressman George H. Tinkham of Massachusetts, who served from 1915 to 1943, is a substantial body of Pound letters that can be classified as "political correspondence." Extending from February 1933 through the 1940 national elections, these 100 letters provide an extended discussion of many of Pound's economic and political ideas, especially as they relate to his twin efforts to unseat President Roosevelt and head off the impending war.

As the introductory essay shows by placing the correspondence in its historical, biographical, and rhetorical contexts, the Pound/Tinkham letters shed a sustained light on the poet as he …

A Physico-Chemical Study Of The Complexation Of Cyclodextrins With Pharmaceutical Substances, Francois A. Menard Jan 1988

A Physico-Chemical Study Of The Complexation Of Cyclodextrins With Pharmaceutical Substances, Francois A. Menard

Open Access Dissertations

The complexation of drugs with alpha, beta, gamma and hydroxyethyl beta cyclodextrins was investigated using the solubility method described by Higuchi and Connors. Beta cyclodextrin was shown to exhibit the most extensive complexation. The solubility isotherms of complexation were studied at different temperatures and at various pH conditions. The effect of ionization of drugs on complexation was thus evaluated for four drugs viz phenytoin, diazepam, ibuprofen and hydrochlothiazide. In the case of phenytoin and diazepam, both the non-ionized and the ionized species were shown to form a complex with cyclodextrins. The slope of complexation for ibuprofen and hydrochlorothiazide was found …

Polyphenol Oxidase Inhibition By Glucose Oxidase In Pink Shrimp (Pandalus Borialis), Mohammed H. S. Al-Jassir Jan 1987

Polyphenol Oxidase Inhibition By Glucose Oxidase In Pink Shrimp (Pandalus Borialis), Mohammed H. S. Al-Jassir

Open Access Dissertations

The glucose oxidase and catalase (GOX/CAT) enzyme system was studied as an inhibitor of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in extracts of whole pink shrimp (Pandalus borealis).

PPO was isolated from shrimp heads and purified by acetone extraction, ultrafiltration, and gel filtration chromatography. A purification of 7.74-fold was obtained with a recovery of 54.3% activity. The shrimp PPO activity was compared to that of mushroom PPO activity. The shrimp PPO was found to have an optimum pH of 6.0-6.5 and to be stable at 25-35 °C. Below freezing, the shrimp PPO was damaged completely and no activity was obtained.
