The Effect Of Insulin, Fluoride And Methyl Xanthines On The Hypothalamic-Parotid Gland Endocrine Axis, Reagan Ondler Jun 1975

The Effect Of Insulin, Fluoride And Methyl Xanthines On The Hypothalamic-Parotid Gland Endocrine Axis, Reagan Ondler

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of insulin and fluoride on dentinal fluid movement (FM) in high-sucrose fed rats as mediated through the hypothalamic-parotid gland endocrine axis. In conjunction with the fluoride study, the possible involvement of cAMP was examined through the use of several methyl xanthines which are recognized as phosphodiesterase inhibitors.

Twenty-one day old, male Sprague Dawley rats were maintained on a high-sugar diet (62% sucrose) for 8-9 days at which time intravenous or arterial infusions of insulin, fluoride or the methyl xanthines were performed. Additional procedures included collecting plasma from rats which had …


Control Of Insects In Cotton, D G. Shedley, D. L. Hardy, P. J. Michael Jan 1969

Control Of Insects In Cotton, D G. Shedley, D. L. Hardy, P. J. Michael

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Results of two experiments at the Ord Irrigation area in 1968 indicate that farmers may be spending more than necessary to obtain economic control of cotton pests in some seasons.

One experiment clearly demonstrated the relationship between low insect numbers and improved cotton yields—the second indicated that a moderate but well timed spray schedule, especially during the early part of the season, can result in more economic insect control than an intensive spray schedule.

Cleansers For The Milking Machine, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

WITH the opening of the flush season dairy farmers should make sure milking machines are working at maximum efficiency.

Machines not working efficiently can cause production losses and damage to cows as well as wasting farmers' time.
