Journal ArticleDOI
Abnormal Response of Tumor Vasculature to Vasoactive Drugs
TL;DR: By their selective action on normal vessels, vasoactive drugs can change the ratio of tumor:normal tissue perfusion, in particular, the increase of normal tissue: tumor blood flow by vasodilator drugs may enhance the selectivity of local heat therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fetal effects of cadmium in pregnant rats on normal and zinc deficient diets.

TL;DR: It is shown that not only the extent of fetal resorption and malformation but also the types of malformation seen in rats depend upon the strain used and day of gestation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of the three-ridge clam (Amblema perplicata) to monitor trace metal contamination
TL;DR: The three-ridge clam amblema perplicata was used to monitor two streams for the presence of zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) derived from an industrial source as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of an industrially contaminated lake on heavy metal levels in its effluent stream
TL;DR: Levels of cadmium and zinc in various components of Williamson Ditch (an industrially contaminated stream flowing into Palestine Lake), Trimble Creek (a stream draining Palestine Lake) and the Tippecance River (a river receiving Trimble creek) were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The uptake of Manganese-54 by green algae (Protococcoidal chlorella), Daphnia magna, and fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined the concentration factors (CF) of three aquatic species: green algae (Protococcoidal chlorella), Daphnia magna, and fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) following direct exposure to the isotope in solution.
