Ascorbic Acid And Glucose: Their Relation To Rheumatic Fever In Utah, And Their Relation To Incidence Of Dental Caries In Idaho, Patricia Wood

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Diseases which in the sixteenth century were found to be related to a deficiency of some substance in the natural foods consumed in the diet were later known as deficiency diseases. As early as 1881, Lunin found that rats could not live on a purified diet of carbohydrate, fat, protein and minerals, but could exist on a diet supplemented with certain natural foods. These findings were found to be in agreement with records of early descriptions of deficiency diseases. Scurvy was recognized very early in voyages made across oceans where ships had no means of being re-provisioned. Progress was very …

Factors Determining Fruit Set And Seed Development In Artificially Pollinated Tomatoes, Charles Howard Henry

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Commercial plantings of tomato hybrids will give increases in earliness and yield because of hybrid vigor, but seed costs become a limiting factor. The necessity of hand-pollination makes the production of first generation hybrid tomato seed a costly enterprise. Failures of fruit set and seed development in artificially pollinated tomatoes are two contributing causes for the increased cost of F₁ seed.

The purpose of this investigation is to study some basic factors influencing these failures and to find ways of increasing fruit set and number of seeds per fruit.

The scope in addition to the field studies described includes …

The Effect Of Feeding Sucrose To Beef And Swine On The Percentage Of Carbohydrate, Ph, Color, Texture, And Flavor Of Muscle And Liver, Margaret B. Merkley

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Carbohydrates have long been a part of animal feeding rations. Grains are included in all animal feeding formulas. The by-products of sugar beets have been used for many years in livestock feeding (Kutish 1950b). The use of molasses in commercial feed mixes in 1899 made possible its extended use in animal feeding practices (Hall 1950).

Protein feeds for cattle are relatively high in price and not available in adequate supply. With these facts in mind Culbertson of Iowa State College set up experiments in 1950 to find out whether part or all of the protein supplement could be replaced with …

In about half of the angiosperm species the gamete chromosome number is a multiple of that found in some related species. This and the fact that polyploidy has such a pronounced effect on plant physiology and growth, as pointed out by Noggle, serve only to emphasize the importance of understanding more about polyploid genetics.

Use Of Dk Cheese Starter In Manufacture Of Commercial Cheddar Cheese, Carl Anthon Ernstrom

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Several months' curing time is needed to give cheddar cheese the desirable flavor demanded by the market. The exact length of time required for curing depends upon the flavor intensity desired, but the curing process is always costly and time-consuming.

The practice of making cheddar cheese from pasteurized milk is now common throughout the industry. Many progressive cheese factories are pasteurizing their milk and enjoying the consequent benefits from a higher quality product. Although pasteurization has eliminated many of the quality problems in cheesemaking, it has resulted in even slower curing cheese.

Much of the cheese research now being carried …

Leaflet No 1000 - Rate Of Milking With Machines - Further Results From Western Australian Herds, R. A. Bettenay

Bulletins 1 - 2999

IN an earlier article by this Department (Vol. XXVI No. 2 PP. 99-104) some introductory remarks were made on a study being conducted on the rate of milking by machine, and preliminary findings were recorded. The conclusion was reached that the rate of milking on most farms was too slow, it being considered that in the vicinity of five minutes per cow should be sufficient under machine milking and that, if the teat cups were left on for a longer period than this, damage to the udder was likely to follow.

Liquid Loss From Glass Jars Processed In The Pressure Cooker, Arnold E. Baragar

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Home canners and extension home economists have inquired frequently why much liquid is sometimes lost from glass jars of food processed in the pressure cooker. At an extension service Home Canning Research Conference held at Kansas City, December, 1946, state extension agents requested research on this home canning problem, because no published reports were available. This bulletin is a report of experiments with glass jars processed in a pressure cooker to determine (1) conditions that allow much liquid to be expelled from jars, (2) conditions that reduce liquid loss to a negligible amount, and (3) the physical conditions involved in …

Variable Factors In The Determination Of Fat And Moisture In Cheddar Cheese, William C. Winder

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The rapid growth of the dairy industry which began in the latter half of the nineteenth century necessitated the development of chemical tests for determining the composition of dairy products. Chemists devoted much study and labor in devising methods which would be both accurate and rapid. As a result of these researches a large number of tests were developed. Many of the methods possessed considerable merit and a few were so satisfactory that the rest did not come into general use. The basic principles of all the tests now in use were discovered between 1880 and 1890.

The Vitamin A And Carotene Content Of Nebraska Butter, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The vitamin-A, carotene, fat and moisture concentrations of Nebraska creamery butter were determined at monthly intervals for 25 months. Samples were obtained from 14 creameries located throughout the state. Their vitamin-A and carotene determinations were made with the aid of a spectrophotometer, and their fat and moisture analyses were determined by the A.O.A.C. methods. From a comparison of these data with the results of investigations in other states it was concluded that Nebraska butter was at least equal in vitamin-A value to average United States butter.

Studies On The Riboflavin Content Of Cheese, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The riboflavin concentrations of twenty-seven kinds of cheeses and cheese spreads were determined by feeding these products to rats whose body stores of riboflavin had been depleted by being fed a riboflavin-deficient diet. Fifteen experiments were made in which 1,223 rats were used. The results obtained varied from 13.5 to 1.2 micrograms of riboflavin per gram of cheese (or spread). The samples of Goat, Velveeta, Mel-0-Pure, and Liederkranz had the highest concentrations of riboflavin while the samples of Cream and Pimento Cream had the lowest concentrations.

Freezing Fruits And Vegetables, Minerva Kellogg

Agricultural Experiment Station Home Economics Pamphlets (1943-1957)

More fruits and vegetables have been produced for home use this year than for any previous year for some time, and methods of preserving this food are needed. Canning is, of course, always a good method, but since the homemaker may not be able to obtain tin and rubber for containers, she must seek other ways to save her surplus garden products. The sharp freezing and storage of foods is one of the new and popular methods of preserving fruits and vegetables. Locker plants operating in South Dakota offer freezing service and many of them butcher and package meat. A …

An Evaluation Of The Baking And Boiling Qualities Of Eight Varieties Of Potatoes, Minerva Kellogg, W.F. Buckholtz

Agricultural Experiment Station Home Economics Pamphlets (1943-1957)

In 1942 the Sebago, Pontiac and Sequoia potatoes grown. at Brookings were late blight-resistant and somewhat scab-resistant. The prevalence of scab in Deuel County and a part of Codington County may make it highly desirable to resort to a resistant variety for table stock production in that area. One of the prime requisites of a potato variety is its cooking quality, and varieties differ in their relative response to different methods; for instance baking and boiling. To evaluate these three varieties in that respect, they were scored, when baked and boiled, along side Early Ohio, Irish Cobbler, Bliss Triumph, Katahdin, …
