Effect of periphytic Escherichia coli and lake water bacterial population on the biofilm establishment of a Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 strain
(2015)Biofilm studies Escherichia coli (E. coli) have typically focused on 0157:H7 in defined, laboratory medium. While there is value in such studies, they offer little in the way of explaining the behaviour and interactions ... -
The Effect of Pesticides on the Degradation of Oxobiodegradable Agricultural Mulch Films
(2015)Oxobiodegradable agriculture mulch films made from polyethylene (PE) are known to have many benefits for agriculture practice, including increased yields and resource efficiency, without the drawback of removing the ... -
Effect of photoperiod on apical growth cessation in tamarack (Larix laricina) and balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera) provenances from northern Ontario
(1990)The effects of four photoperiods (i.e. 6, 10, 14, and 18 hours) on the rate of apical growth cessation and apical bud primordia production were studied in controlled environment experiments using tamarack {Larix laricina ... -
Effect of physical fitness exercise on the distribution of plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol and other lipid fractions
(1982)The effect of participation in a physical fitness programme of moderate intensity on plasma lipoprotein cholesterols, total cholesterol, triglycerides and apolipoprotein-A levels was investigated. Forty-nine inactive ... -
The effect of polyphenols on the angiotensin II receptor type 1 activation
(2017)Hypertension, an increase in blood pressure, can lead to many serious complications, one of which is heart failure. Angiotensin (Ang) II is associated with hypertension; specifically, the Ang II receptor type 1 (AGTR1) is ... -
Effect of prenatal cadmium exposure on development and behavior of selectively bred genetic lines of rat
(1988)PELLETIER, M. R. (1988). Effect of prenatal cadmium exposure on development and behavior of selectively bred genetic lines of rat: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of cadmium exposure as related ... -
The effect of removing examinees with low motivation on item response data calibration
(2014-01-22)Many item-response models (IRM) used to estimate student abilities and test item parameters in large-scale assessments (LSA) do not account for the effect of student low motivation. This effect may pose a threat to the ... -
Effect of rpoS inactivation on biofilm formation of a p-nitrophenol degrading Pseudomonas putida strain
(2005)With the widespread existence of environmental pollutants in the modern world, effective, non-destructive means of remediation are becoming more and more desirable as an alternative to the traditional excavation and ... -
Effect of seasonal training on selected physical and physiological variables of junior male alpine ski racers
(1990)The purpose of this study was threefold: 1) to investigate the effect of seasonal training on anthropometry, muscular strength and power, motor ability, flexibility, aerobic power, and anaerobic power and capacity, 2) ... -
Effect of seasonal wrestling training and unavoidable interventions on selected physiological parameters
(1979)The purpose of this study was to investigate, 1) the effect of seasonal wrestling training on aerobic and anaerobic power, physical working capacity (170), resting, maximal and recovery heart rate, 2) to determine the ... -
The effect of secoisolariciresinol diglucoside on oxidative stress and inflammation in cardiac iron overload
(2013-02-01)Chronic cardiac iron overload directly correlates with cardiac dysfunction and may ultimately cause heart failure. Although recent studies have suggested that altered calcium homeostasis and increased reactive oxygen ... -
Effect of semantic representations on episodic memory for unrelated sensory information
(1995)The present research investigated the integration of meaning and sensory information within episodic memory. Early research (e.g. Morris, Bransford & Franks, 1977; Stein, 1978, as well as Tulving & Thomson, 1973; Fisher ... -
The effect of size, value, and arrangement on perceived numerosity
(1972)Numerosity (perceived quantity) is shown in four experiments to vary with several factors: item-size, item-value, pattern size, and possibly the arrangement of items within patterns. -
The effect of sociodemographic and health system factors on the association between multimorbidity and colorectal cancer survival
(2021)This thesis aimed to assess the effect of multimorbidity (MMB) on colorectal cancer (CRC) patients’ survival and explored whether sociodemographic and health system factors affected this relationship or not. This thesis ... -
Effect of spacing management on growth and commercial logging of red pine
(2021)To maximize utilization of the forest resource, spacing management always plays an important role in tree planting. It will influence tree height, diameter, mortality, self-pruning, and most importantly, early growth ... -
