Acetaldehyde metabolism in mammals : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry at Massey University, New Zealand
(Massey University, 1975)
The metabolism of acetaldehyde in mammalian systems has been investigated both with in vitro studies on sheep liver aldehyde dehydrogenase, and by following changes in blood acetaldehyde levels in human volunteers. The ...
Immunological factors associated with foot-rot in sheep : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Massey University
(Massey University, 1972)
Foot-rot in sheep has troubled farmers for many years not because of any spectacular epidemics associated with high mortality but because the chronic lameness associated with foot infection, and its consequences, frequently ...
A quantitative study of bacteriophages for "cheese starter bacteria" : their occurrence and distribution in the atmosphere of cheesemaking rooms : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Microbiology at Massey University
(Massey University, 1974)
The object of this study was to examine quantitatively the phage distribution in the atmosphere of a cheesemaking room so as to obtain an overall picture of: phage build-up in the air during the cheesemaking process, the ...
The population dynamics of Porcellio Scaber, latr (Crustacea Isopoda) in waste grassland in New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Zoology at Massey University
(Massey University, 1971)
The dynamics of an isopod (Porcellio acaber) population in waste grassland are described. Three different generations can be distinguished on the basis of size distributions. A difference in age structure and sex ratio is ...
Ethanol metabolism in humans : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy at Massey University, New Zealand
(Massey University, 1979)
This thesis outlines the development breath alcohol measurement and investigations of the rate of absorption, equilibration and elimination of alcohol from the body using breath analysis. After a historical outline, the ...
The regulation of some glycolytic enzymes in streptococcus lactis : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry at Massey University, New Zealand
(Massey University, 1975)
Certain aspects of the control of carbohydrate metabolism have been studied primarily in S. lactis C10. The kinetic and regulatory properties of two enzymes, lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase were investigated in ...
Ethanol metabolism in humans : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University
(Massey University, 1974)
Alcohol metabolism in humans has been studied by examining blood, urine and breath samples taken at frequent intervals for 3 hours after an alcohol load of 0.5ml/kg in a fasting condition.
A gas chromatographic method was ...
The social organization of the pukeko, Porphyrio porphyrio melanotus, Temminck, 1820 : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Zoology at Massey University
(Massey University, 1974)
The social organization and behaviour of the pukeko, Porphyrio porphyrio melanotus, is described for two different habitats. The study shows that pukeko breed in pairs or communal groups with the proportion of these varying ...
Effects of genotype and environment on the sprouting propensity and other grain characters of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.): a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Plant Science at Massey University
(Massey University, 1977)
Sprouting damage nay occur when wet weather initiates germination processes in unharvested grain, with subsequent deterioration in breadmaking quality. It is a potential hazard to wheat growing regions throughout the world, ...
A multivariate planning model - city structure : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Statistics.
(Massey University, 1972)
The genesis of this study is post graduate research in Urban Geography at Canterbury University in 1966. At that time a crude multivariate Centroid model of 95 New Zealand towns and cities was constructed. Based upon 60 ...
