Variation in the carbohydrate and diastase contents of the tissues after feeding
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1918)
The literature of carbohydrate hydrolysis dates from 1912 when Kirchoff (1) hydrolized starch to sugar with strong acids. Dubunfraut (2) in 1830 got the same result with an extract of malt. The active principle of malt was ...
Electrodynamic field effects in heterogeneous catalysis : ammonia synthesis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1970)
The synthesis of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen was studied on a multi-promoted iron catalyst in a packed bed reactor under the influence of electrodynamic field. Two different experimental conditions were studied. In the first series...
A preliminary list of the rusts of Boone County
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1913)
A complete list of the rusts of Boone County has not been published. In the year 1889 Dr. B.T. Galloway of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, published a preliminary list of the parasitic fungi of Missouri. The specimens ...
Investigation upon the nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, and ash content of three beef animals, with special study upon the forms of sulfur
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1917)
This thesis explores the chemical composition of beef cattle, with special attention given to nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, and ash content. A review of previous research is provided as well as a description of an experiment ...
Sex variability
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1919)
The question of variation has long been of interest to scientists. Since the time of Darwin we find investigators endeavoring to determine which sex is the more variable. In a well known controversy on this subject between ...
The amount of edible meat in the various cuts from animals of known life histories
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1909)
This series of experiments was undertaken with the thought of studying the composition of the different cuts of meat from the housekeeper's standpoint, to determine what cut of meat will furnish the most edible meat for a given amount of money....
OPEC as a non-state actor : formation and dynamics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1982)
-state actors within the international system. Its central hypothesis is that OPEC emerged as a collective bargaining instrument, but has become a non-state actor that impacts upon as well as serves the policies of its member-states. As a corollary it is assumed...
The structural quality of tone-color in Paradise lost
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1915)
This paper attempts to show to what extent the various manifestations of tone-color in Paradise Lost have compensated for the absence of rhyme. A chapter is devoted to the assimilative office of tone-color in the poem, ...
Some factors influencing the lipase content of the blood
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1915)
From the review of the literature of the lipase content of the blood it appears that no consistent series of determinations have been made through a period of time sufficient to learn under just what conditions the variation in the total lipase...
The variable RS Cassicpeiae (108.1904)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1907)
by Miss Whitney at the Vassar College Observatory, A. N. No. 4050, confirmed the variation and gave a range in brightness of 9.m7 to 10.m4. The following provisional elements, based upon observations made here, were announced in Laws Observatory Bulletin...
The biosystematics of the Lupinus sparsiflorus complex and allies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
"The genus Lupinus officially dates back to Linnaeus (1753) and Tourenfourt is credited with originating the name in prelinnean work; however, a species had been illustrated in an Old World herbal back to the time of the ...
The relation of the fat and lipase content of the liver and kidney under variations in feeding
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1917)
In this present work, by varying the diet of animals (litters of puppies) and by examining the liver and kidney of these animals we will try to present data to show whether or not the lipase concentration of these organs ...
A study of parametric instability of eccentrically stiffened rectangular plates
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1974)
-dependent ordinary differential equations, were then expressed in matrix notation. The solution of the resulting matrix equation, which was assumed in the form of a Fourier series, showed that the boundary of the regions of parametric instability could be determined...
The impact of the Sino-Soviet conflict on the Japanese Communist Party, 1961-1968
(University of Missouri -- Columbia., 1973)
The magnitude and intensity of the Sino-Soviet conflict since 1956 have had a profound impact on East- West international relations, the intra-bloc relations of the Communist political parties, particularly those in Asia. The primary purpose...
Associated Press teletypesetter wire service usage by Missouri afternoon dailies
(University of Missouri., 1958)
"The purpose of the study which will be described in the following pages is to analyze the content of the Missouri state teletypesetter wire, and to see what use is made of it by the sixteen afternoon dailies it serves."--Page2
The development of railroads in Missouri to 1860
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1915)
Railroad construction in Missouri was undertaken by private companies who expected to finance the roads by subscriptions to the capital stock by individuals, towns and counties. Early in 1851 the people realized that the ...
Pvt measurements on fluoroform : second and third virial coefficients from 200⁰c to 350⁰c and compressibility factors to 150 atmospheres
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1974)
The Burnett method was employed to study the volumetric behavior of fluoroform gas from 200 to 350°C at pressure up to 150 atmospheres. An estimate of the assignable measurement errors indicate the data should be accurate to 5 part in 10,000. A...
Study of the factors influencing the composition of beef fat
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1912)
The views upon the origin of body fat have undergone a number of changes in the last sixty or seventy years. These views have changed from the idea that body fat originated from the ingested fat to the later views that it ...
A study of the processes of fat metabolism and methods for the determination of fat
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1914)
Our present conception of how fat is absorbed is indeed very modern. The most work has been done within the last fifteen or twenty years. It shall be my purpose to go into a detailed account of the work of modern investigators, ...
