Production of copper-matrix composites by in situ processing
(1995-12-15)
Reaction synthesis routes were studied as a means of production of copper-matrix composites. Routes for providing fine and uniform dispersions of TiC, TiB and WC in a copper-rich matrix were identified. The reasons for ...
Sudden death in A&E
(1995-12-01)
The aim of this article is to explore the care provided for distressed relatives in the Emergency Department after the occurrence of a sudden death. Consideration is given to the staff perceptions of relatives' responses ...
Regulation of egg production, worm burden, worm length and worm fecundity by host responses in sheep infected with Ostertagia circumcincta
(1995-12)
Following infection with Ostertagia circumcincta there was considerable variation in worm burdens, worm size and number of inhibited larvae even among sheep matched for age, sex, breed, farm of origin and history of parasite ...
The FMRFamide-like AF2 is present in the parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus
(1995-11)
Peptides belonging to the FMRFamide family are widely distributed amongst invertebrates. We report here on the isolation of the FMRFamide neuropeptide AF2 (Lys-His-Glu-Tyr-Leu-Arg-Phe-NH2) from the parasitic nematode ...
Periodicity and gradients in dispersal of Alternaria linicola in linseed crops
(1995-11)
Conidia of Alternaria linicola produced on infected linseed crops were mainly dispersed by wind. The numbers of conidia in the air above linseed crops collected by a Burkard spore sampler were greatest between 12:00 h and ...
Comparison of four methods for the determination of plasma pepsinogen concentration
(1995-11)
Four methods for estimating plasma pepsinogen concentrations were compared to determine the most suitable for routine use. Three of the methods were colorimetric assays which used glycine-buffered albumin, albumin, or ...
Pseudorecombination and complementation between potato yellow mosaic geminivirus and tomato golden mosaic geminivirus
(1995-11)
Pseudorecombinants made by exchanging the cloned, infectious genome components (DNAs A and B) of potato yellow mosaic geminivirus (PYMV) and the common strain (cs) of tomato golden mosaic geminivirus (csTGMV) are not ...
Development of PCR for the detection of Polymyxa-betae in sugar beet roots and its application in field studies
(1995-11)
A previously cloned 1.8 kb PCR Polymyxa betae DNA fragment has been fully sequenced and used to design PCR primers for the specific detection of P. betae in sugar beet seedling roots. The primers did not amplify sequences ...
Effects of inoculum concentration, leaf age and wetness period on the development of dark leaf and pod spot (Alternaria brassicae) on oilseed rape (Brassica napus)
(1995-10)
Experiments were done under controlled environment and glasshouse conditions to study the effects of inoculum concentration, leaf age and wetness period on the development of dark leaf and pod spot (Alternaria brassicae) ...
