Abstract Amid widespread occurrence of herbicide-resistant weeds in the United States, use PRE herbicides and cover crops have resurged once again as important strategies for weed management cropping systems. The objective this experiment was to evaluate length soil residual control from soybean detrimental impact these on crop species using field treated greenhouse bioassays. Greenhouse bioass...

The reaction o f 5'-CMP with methyl, ethyl, «-propyl and isopropyl iodides gave predomi­ nantly ribose alkylated products. Various alkylated derivatives have been characterized using UV spectroscopy, paper electrophoresis, 'H N M R and FAB (negative) mass spectroscopic techniques. Under strongly alkaline conditions the 2'-0-alkylated derivatives are synthesized in maximal yields. Isopropylation...

a b s t r a c t   zinc deficiency in man is characterized by skin lesion, alopecia and has been linked to growth retardation and mental disturbance. for supplementation purposes zinc is currently presented as its sulfate salt, from which uptake by the body is poor, necesseting the administration of high doses. this leads to a range of unpleasant side effects. in order to increase the bioavailab...

Changes in post-cutting volatiles, quality, and sensory attributes during fresh-cut storage (4 degrees C) of cantaloupe (Cucumis melo L. var. Reticulatus, Naudin, cv. 'Sol Real') harvested at four distinct maturities (1/4-, 1/2-, 3/4-, and full-slip) were investigated after 0, 2, 5, 7, 9, 12, and 14 days in a 2-year study. Increased fruity and sweet taste attributes were negatively correlated w...

The reactivity of microsolvated fluoride ions, F (CH3OH)0–2, with methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, and t-butyl bromide is evaluated over a broad range of temperatures. Significant decreases in reactivity are observed as either solvation or temperature increases. Increasing solvation increases sensitivity to the reaction barrier as revealed by a larger temperature dependence. These reactions are dominat...

A method is presented for the rapid, precise, quantitative measurement of 3-methoxy4-hydroxymandelic acid (VMA) in urine. The method is unique in that it utilizes silica-gel-impregnated glass fiber as a support medium for thin-layer chromatography. An ethyl acetate extract of acidified urine was spotted and chromatographed in an ascending technic using tolulene, glacial acetic acid, and ethyl a...
