Predissociation processes in N22+, O22+, and NO2+, studied by ion kinetic energy spectroscopy
Download1984
Curtis, Jonathan M., Boyd, Robert K
Experimental values of kinetic energy release T, for predissociation processes of diatomic di‐cations N2+ 2, O2+ 2, and NO2 + have been obtained using techniques of ion‐kinetic‐energy spectroscopy on a double‐focusing mass spectrometer. Both unimolecular and collision‐induced processes were...

Profiles of energy metabolites and haptoglobin in dairy cows under organic management in Alberta farms
Download2013
Odhiambo, John F., Dunn, Suzanna M., Farooq, Umar, Ametaj, Burim N.
Profiles of energy metabolites and haptoglobin (Hp) in dairy cows that are transitioned from conventional to organic management in various Alberta farms were compared with those of dairy cows managed conventionally at the University of Alberta dairy farm. Blood samples were collected during the...

Mussone, Paolo G., Bressler, David C., Khalil, Hamdy, Mekonnen, Tizazu H.
Over the coming few decades bioplastic materials are expected to complement and gradually replace some of the fossil oil based materials. Multidisciplinary research efforts have generated a significant level of technical and commercial success towards these bio-based materials. However, extensive...

Progress towards the sustainable risk management of clubroot (Plasmodiophora brassicae) of canola on the Canadian prairies
Download2011-01-01
Strelkov, Stephen E., Hwang, Sheau-Fang, Howard, Ronald J., Hartman, Murray, Turkington, T. Kelly
Clubroot, caused by the obligate parasite Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin, has recently emerged as an important disease of canola (Brassica napus) in central Alberta. Disease development is characterized by the formation of large galls on the roots of affected plants, which hinder water and...

Prophylactic ciprofloxacin treatment prevented high mortality, and modified systemic and intestinal immune function in tumour-bearing rats receiving dose-intensive CPT-11 chemotherapy
Download2009
Baracos, Vickie E., Xue, Hongyu, Sawyer, Michael B., Field, Catherine J
Infectious complications are a major cause of morbidity and mortality from dose-intensive cancer chemotherapy. In spite of the importance of intestinal bacteria translocation in these infections, information about the effect of high-dose chemotherapy on gut mucosal immunity is minimal. We studied...
