The nutritive characteristics of maize silage and maize silage/grass rations for cattle : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Animal Science at Massey University, 1973
(Massey University, 1973)
An experiment was conducted to investigate some of the nutritional properties of maize silage, when fed to rising two year old monozygous twin Jersey and Jersey cross cattle, housed indoors. In a preliminary experiment, ...
Ethanol and acetaldehyde metabolism in sheep : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry
(Massey University, 1973)
Ethanol and acetaldehyde metabolism in sheep has been studied in three different types of experiments:in purified enzyme systems, in liver homogenates and in the intact animals. Particular emphasis has been placed on the ...
A class of absolute retracts : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics at Massey University
(Massey University, 1973)
A restricted version of the Tietze Theorem is that a continuous mapping of a closed subspace of a metric space ranging in a closed interval may be extended to a continuous function defined upon the whole metric space. This ...
Effects of grazing on the growth and development of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science at Massey University
(Massey University, 1973)
White Clover (Trifolium repens L.) has been a part of the pasture scene for many years (Erith 1924; Stapledon 1919-1928) and its distribution in temperate regions is world wide (Erith loc. cit.). Its value both as a legume ...
Kinetics and mechanism of proteolytic enzyme catalysed reactions : a thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry
(Massey University, 1973)
The enzyme actinidin has been purified and studied chemically and kinetically. The enzyme has many structural and kinetic similarities with ficin and papain. Specificity studies indicate a strong preference for a basic ...
Ionospheric reflections at medium frequencies : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Physics at Massey University
(Massey University, 1973)
This thesis examines a possible explanation for some of the time variations of the night-time sky wave at distances between 80 and 160km from low-medium-frequency transmitters. In the postulated model this variation is ...
