An Experimental Investigation Of Highly Undercooled Magnesium Silicate Chondrule-Like Spherules, Harry Nicholas Planner
An Experimental Investigation Of Highly Undercooled Magnesium Silicate Chondrule-Like Spherules, Harry Nicholas Planner
Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs
A series of experiments, involving molten magnesium silicate spherules that were subjected to high initial cooling rates and allowed to nucleate at high temperatures (985-1350°C), were performed so as to compare their thermal histories to the resulting internal features. Such comparisons could be used to decipher the thermal history of chondrules and the conditions surrounding their formation based on their mineralogy, crystal morphology, and overall texture. Various features of the spherules were correlated with the initial high cooling rate process, nucleation temperature, and the maximum temperature attained during the recalescance to demonstrate the restrictions resulting from or their sensitivities to …
Geochemistry And Petrology Of The Orbicular Rocks, Sandia Mountains, New Mexico, Robert David Enz
Geochemistry And Petrology Of The Orbicular Rocks, Sandia Mountains, New Mexico, Robert David Enz
Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs
Orbicular rock located on the west side of the Sandia Mountains, New Mexico, at W. long. 106° 29' 30", N. lat. 35° 13' 04", was first reported by Fitzsimmons (1966). Recently Thompson and Giles (1974) published a paper describing.three types of orbicular rock in the locality which they believed to have been formed by a metasomatic process. Without knowledge of the work of Thompson and Giles, this thesis was initiated as a detailed field, petrographic, geochemical and geochronologic study of these orbicular rocks.
Four types of orbicular rock, including another previously unreported occurrence of orbicular granite about 2 km north …

Public Access To The Beaches Of Connecticut, Don W. Oswalt
Public Access To The Beaches Of Connecticut, Don W. Oswalt
Theses and Major Papers
Elements of the public of Connecticut are engaged in direct conflict against private and municipal property rights over the issue of increased public access to beaches of the state. In Connecticut, as well as the nation, definite solutions to the problem are slow to materialize. The public's right to the whole beach is being clarified by only a few states, while public access under common law remains a clouded issue nationwide. The research study I am proposing would examine in detail the legal issues involved, the state and federal legislative actions, geographical considerations, etc. I feel that the resulting collation …

Models For Estimating Psychiatric Bed Needs, Patricia A. Brenneman
Models For Estimating Psychiatric Bed Needs, Patricia A. Brenneman
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
Inland Counties Comprehensive Health Planning Council wished to estimate the psychiatric bed needs by type (such as state hospitals, board and care homes, etc.) in San Bernardino County from the distributions of patient arrivals and of lengths of stay. A statistical description of the system during 1973 was considered the first step toward estimating future bed needs. A computer simulation model using IBM's programming language General Purpose Simulation System (GPSS) was developed and was found to be unsatisfactory.
Theorems were then developed for a statistical model, seeking to predict future bed needs. The most convenient of these theorems states that …
Debris Slides And Related Flood Effects In The 4-5 August 1938 Webb Mountain Cloudburst: Some Past And Present Environmental Geomorphic Implications, Carl A. Koch
Masters Theses
On the night of 4-5 August, 1938 a cloudburst occurred over Webb Mountain, Tennessee, that lasted three hours with a rainfall in excess of twelve inches. This sudden deluge caused considerable debris sliding and flooding which resulted in the loss of eight lives and extensive property damage in the narrow valleys below the slide area. Over 100 individual slide scars were identified in the study area, 40 of which occurred in the Matthew Creek watershed.
The debris slide movement is thought to have been initiated by sliding at the head of the scar, with the mass of moving rock, soil …

Unusual Lavas From Molokai, Hawaii: Alkalic Olivine Basalts Transitional To Hawaiites And Strontium-Rich Mugearites, Paul Frank Hlava
Unusual Lavas From Molokai, Hawaii: Alkalic Olivine Basalts Transitional To Hawaiites And Strontium-Rich Mugearites, Paul Frank Hlava
Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs
ABSTRACT
Systematic data has recently been published on the compositions of major mineral phases in rocks of the tholeiitic, alkalic, and nephelinic suites from the island of Maui, Hawaii. The present study was initiated to provide similar data from the rocks of Molokai, Hawaii, from which the nature of interisland variations could be established. During the study, it became obvious that many of the rocks were unusual and so this study also provides information on the bulk rock, trace element, and mineral compositions of alkalic olivine basalts transitional to hawaiites and Sr-rich mugearites.
From a total of 14 basalts collected …

The Development Of An Arsenic(V) Selective Electrode, Sandra Gee Kang
The Development Of An Arsenic(V) Selective Electrode, Sandra Gee Kang
Dissertations and Theses
The object of this research was to develop an arsenic(V) selective electrode. The electrode is based on a solid state membrane prepared by pressing a precipitate of silver arsenate-silver sulfide into a pellet. After the electrode was made, experiments were designed to check for three general characteristics of the electrodes: dependence of potential on pH for constant arsenic(V) concentration; dependence of potential on arsenic(V) concentrations at constant pH and extent of interference due to phosphate and arsenic(III) ions. From these measurements, it was found that Ag2HAs04 was formed originally in the membranes containing a small fraction of …
The Thermal And Photolytic Rearrangements Of Isatoic Acid Diazide, Ana Alejandre Ciereszko
The Thermal And Photolytic Rearrangements Of Isatoic Acid Diazide, Ana Alejandre Ciereszko
Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses & Dissertations
The primary objective of this research has been the thermolysis and photolysis of isatoic acid diazide 1. Thermolysis in low boiling solvents produced the acylazido benzimidazolone 10, while refluxing in high boiling solvents gave rise to the imidazoindazoline 31, presumably via Curtius rearrangements.
Photolysis of the diazide in methylene chloride gave rise to two photo products, 10 and 31, while photolysis in tetrahydrofuran produced only 31.
A study of the spectral and chemical characteristics of these products have been carried out.
Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, John Gibson
Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, John Gibson
Honors Theses
Solid phase peptide synthesis is a relatively new biochemical process for polymerization of amino acids. It involves the selection of amino acids, blocking groups, and resins. This procedure was first investigated by R. B. Merrifield in an attempt to simplify previous methods of peptide synthesis. Since other methods involved amino acids, peptide esters, and diketopiperazines, peptide synthesis had been limited by amino acid selection and a host of technical problems. Solid phase synthesis alleviates many of these difficulties and limitations by supplying a faster and simpler stepwise addition of a wide variety of naturally occurring and synthetically prepared amino acids …

Theses and Dissertations
Methylmalonyl CoA mutase has been purified over 2300-fold from bovine brain using fractional precipitation, ion exchange resins, and gel filtration procedures. The crude extract had an equal mixture of mutase in the halo- and apoenzyme form. After the final purification step the ratio had changed to 86% holo-enzyme and 14% apoenzyme. The mutase enzyme had a pH optimum of 7. 0 in Tris-HCI buffer. The Km values for L-methylmalonyl CoA and succinyl CoA were 7.7 x 10^-4 M and 1.8 x 10^-4 M respectively. The equiIibrium constant in the direction of succinyl CoA formation was 19. Inhibition with N-ethylmalei-mide was …
Characterization Of Zinc-Containing Metalloproteins By Resonance Raman Spectroscopy, Robert Edward Derry
Characterization Of Zinc-Containing Metalloproteins By Resonance Raman Spectroscopy, Robert Edward Derry
Dissertations and Theses
Cobalt-substituted carboxypeptidase and carbonic anhydrase were chosen as candidates for resonance Raman spectroscopy because they possess visible absorption due to the Co(II)-protein complex. However, no evidence for resonance-enhanced peaks due to the cobalt-containing chromophore was found with laser excitation near the visible absorption bands (514.5 nm) or closer to the ultraviolet absorption bands (457.9nm).
Arsanilazocarboxypeptidase and model azotyrosine compounds were selected for a Raman spectroscopic investigation because they have intense absorption bands in the visible region. All of these substances yielded similar resonance Raman spectra. Although there was no evidence for specific zinc-ligand vibrations, shifts in vibrational frequencies of the …

Prenatal Instruction Of Breast Feeding Mothers, Anita Berry
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
This experimental study tested the effect of prenatal instruction on the success of a group of mothers who desired to breast feed their infants. It was hypothesized that mothers receiving information on how to nurse their infants, how to prevent complications and how to cope with common problems of breast feeding would have a higher success rate than those not so instructed.
Criteria for success was that the mothers would have an adequate supply of milk to meet the nutritional demands of their infant without supplementation, would have fewer and less severe complications, and would express a higher degree of …

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
A descriptive-comparative survey using content analysis of medical records has been done to determine the frequency with which emotional disorders are identified by medical personnel in the population hospitalized in small general hospitals in north-central Nebraska.
A systematic, random sample of medical records was taken from two hospitals arbitrarily included in the study on the basis of bed capacity and distance from mental health facilities.
Each medical record that was reviewed has been placed in a category based on whether an emotional disorder was identified in it by the medical personnel, or whether it contained recorded behaviors that could indicate …
Alumina-Catalyzed Cope Rearrangement, Paul Jhy-Shing Wang
Alumina-Catalyzed Cope Rearrangement, Paul Jhy-Shing Wang
Dissertations and Theses
The alumina-catalyzed Cope rearrangements of meso- and dl-3,4-diphenylhexa-1,5-diene were examined in detail, following up a preliminary observation by H. Berg at Portland State University. Commercial column-chromatography grade alumina was employed, and was further activated before use by heating at 650-700° for four hours.
Using a ratio of 20 mg of dl-3,4-diphenylhex-l,5-diene to 1 g of alumina in heptane, the Cope rearrangement was complete within 15 minutes at room temperature to give exclusively trans,trans-1,6-diphenylhexa-1,5-diene. This was identified.by melting point, infrared spectroscopy and vapor phase chromatography.
The catalyzed rearrangement of meso-3,4-diphenylhexa-l,5-diene was run using the same diene …
The Effects Of Pentachlorophenol On The Electrical Conductivity Of Lipid Bilayer Membranes, William Harvey Perman
The Effects Of Pentachlorophenol On The Electrical Conductivity Of Lipid Bilayer Membranes, William Harvey Perman
Dissertations and Theses
The effects of pentachlorophenol (PCP), a widely used pesticide, on the electrical characteristics of lipid bilayer membranes has been studied. When a small amount of PCP (even at a concentration of a few micromoles per liter) is present in the electrolytic solution surrounding the membrane, the electrical conductivity of the membrane significantly increases. The present work was concerned with detailed measurements of the changes in the conductivity caused by PCP under chemically controlled conditions. The experimental results were analyzed to determine the permanent species in the membrane, and an attempt was made to correlate the data with existing models of …

Metabolism Of 3-Isopropyl-4h-2,1,3-Benzothiadiazin-4-(3h)-One-2,2-Dioxide (Bentazon) In Agitated And Non-Agitated Sediment, David Cortez Gutierrez
Metabolism Of 3-Isopropyl-4h-2,1,3-Benzothiadiazin-4-(3h)-One-2,2-Dioxide (Bentazon) In Agitated And Non-Agitated Sediment, David Cortez Gutierrez
Theses and Dissertations
Bentazon, (3-isopropyl-1H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4(3H)-l-2,2-dioxide) a new experimental herbicide, was studied under the effects of sterile and non-sterile conditions, 12 hours light: 12 hours dark and totally dark conditions, and agitated and non-agitated conditions in aquatic sediment. The effects of the different levels of BOD/COD values on the decomposition of Bentazon were studied. Photoperiod, sterility, and BOD/COD levels appeared to have no influence in the breakdown of Bentazon. Agitation-time interaction appeared to be the only factor that influenced the more rapid degradation of Bentazon. Bentazon was the major 14C-residue found in the water; it was followed by an unknown. The third major metabolite …

The Attack Of Hard And Soft Nucleophiles On 6-Methylsulfonyl-, 6-Methylsulfinyl-, And 6-Methylthioaminopteridines, William David Johnston
Theses and Dissertations
In an attempt to prepare 6-anilino and 6-benzylaminopteridines, 2,4,7-triamino-6-methylsulfonyl and 2,4,7-triamino-6-methylsulfinylpteridines were prepared and reacted with a number of benzylamines and aniline. These hard nucleophiles gave amine exchange products with no displacement at the 6 position. Aliphatic amines gave exchange in the 2,4-and 7-positions. The exchange occurring in the 7-position must be occurring by an AE mechanism. This is the first such exchange reported in a ring other than a 1,3-azine. Aniline gave no exchange product except in an acid catalyzed reaction, and then gave exchange in only the 2 and 4-positions. Numerous reactions on related substrates, are reported. Soft …

Part I. Catalytic Hydrocarbon Reforming By Technetium Catalysts.|Npart Ii.|Pacetone Azine And 3,5,5-Trimethyl-2-Pyrazoline Adducts Of Palladium Chloride, James Lynn Palmer
Theses and Dissertations
Technetium catalyzes hydrocarbon reforming reactions of dehydrocyclization, isomerization, hydrogenolysis, and coke formation. A kinetic equation was derived and E_a and A_o evaluated for dehydrocyclization of n-heptane, isomerization of n-pentane, and dehydrogenation of methylcyclohexane and cyclohexane. The results were related to the metal, the form of the catalyst, catalyst support, and the deactivation of the catalyst. The effect of sulfur compounds was determined. No residual radioactivity in the product was observed. The ligands, acetone azine (AA) and 3,5,5-trimethyl-2- pyrazoline (Py), reacted with (C_6H_5CN)_2PdCl_2 to form adducts, L_2PdCl_2 and (LPdCl_2)_n. Their structures were characterized by spectroscopic methods and some molecular weights determined. …
Thermodynamic Stability Constants Of Silver Bromide Complexes In Water And Water-Acetone Mixtures Determined By Ion-Selective Electrode Measurements, Arthur Lee Cummings
Thermodynamic Stability Constants Of Silver Bromide Complexes In Water And Water-Acetone Mixtures Determined By Ion-Selective Electrode Measurements, Arthur Lee Cummings
Theses and Dissertations
Thermodynamic equilibrium constants for silver(I) bromide complexes were determined by ion-selective membrane electrode potential measurements in water and in mixtures of water and acetone of approximately 5, 10 and 15 percent acetone by weight. Values of the solubility product constant were determined in each solvent system by calibration of a silver bromide membrane electrode with silver nitrate solutions and with sodium bromide solutions. Stability constants of silver(I) bromide complexes were determined using a silver ion-selective, silver sulfide membrane electrode in unsaturated solutions in which the formal concentrations of silver(I) and of bromide ranged from approximately I x 10-8 to 7 …
