Use of ion exchange resins in the analysis of rocks and minerals: Separation of sodium and potassium
L.E. Reichen
1958, Analytical Chemistry (30) 1948-1950
This procedure was developed primarily for analyses in which limited amounts of sample are available. Sodium and potassium can be separated from the other constituents of silicate rocks by cation exchange resin (Amberlite IR-120). The sample is decomposed with hydrofluoric and sulfuric acids and passed through the resin bed after...
Potassium bromide method of infrared sampling
R.G. Milkey
1958, Analytical Chemistry (30) 1931-1933
In the preparation of potassium bromide pressed windows for use in the infrared analysis of solids, severe grinding of the potassium bromide powder may produce strong absorption bands that could interfere seriously with the spectra of the sample. These absorption bands appear to be due to some crystal alteration of...
The deuterium content of water in some volcanic glasses
I. Friedman, R. L. Smith
1958, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (15) 218-228
The deuterium-hydrogen composition (relative to Lake Michigan water = 0.0) of water extractsd from coexisting perlite and obsidian from eleven different localities was determined. The water content of the obsidians is generally from 0.09 to 0.29 per cent by weight, though two samples from near Olancha, California, contain about 0.92...

Fishery management problems and possibilities on large southeastern reservoirs
John W. Parsons
1958, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (87) 333-355
Principal problems concerning the fisheries of large reservoirs in the Southeast are: inefficient and highly selective exploitation of fish stocks, and protection and reclamation of damaged or threatened fisheries in tailwaters and tributary streams. Seven mainstream reservoirs on which data are available support an average angling pressure of 4.9 trips...

Some myxosporidia found in Pacific Northwest salmonids
W. T. Yasutake, E. M. Wood
1957, Journal of Parasitology (43) 633-642
During the histological examination of a group of wild and hatchery salmonids undescribed sporazoans were frequently observed. This was not unexpected, since Myxosporidia are typical fish parasites (Kudo, 1920). Myxidium were observed in kidney tubules, Cholromyxum in glomeruli, and Myxobous in the spinal cord and on epidermal scales. The present...
New host and locality record for Triaenophorus crassus forel (Cestoda: pseudophyllidea)
J. R. Uzmann, M. N. Hesselholt
1957, Journal of Parasitology (43) 205-208
The adult form of Triaenophorus crassus Forel, 1868 (= T. robustus Olsson, 1893; = T. tricuspidatus morpha megadentatus Wardle, 1932) occurs as an intestinal parasite in the pike, Esox lucius L., a holarctic species of wide distribution. Preliminary life-history stages include procercoid development in copepods of the genus Cyclops followed...
Teratological hermaphroditism in the chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta (Walbaum)
J. R. Uzmann, M. N. Hesselholt
1957, Progressive Fish-Culturist (20) 191-192
The anomalous condition of hermaphroditism appears to be no less rare in fish than in other normally dioecious animals. Previous records of bisexuality' in the Pacific salmons, Oncorhynchus spp., are few in number despite the intensive study accorded this group. Rutter (1902) reported the condition in two king salmon (O....
The nutrition of salmonid fishes. I. Chemical and histological studies of wild and domestic fish
E. M. Wood, W. T. Yasutake, A.N. Woodall, J.E. Halver
1957, Journal of Nutrition (61) 465-478
Salmonids reared under artificial conditions show marked consistent differences in body composition in comparison with wild salmonids. Protein and mineral levels are lower and lipid values are higher in hatchery fish than in wild fish. As the period of artificial rearing is increased, these differences become more extreme....
The nutrition of salmonid fishes. II. Studies on production diets
E. M. Wood, W. T. Yasutake, A.N. Woodall, J.E. Halver
1957, Journal of Nutrition (61) 479-488
In 69 production diets fed to hatchery salmonids, there was a wide variation in the ingredients of the diets and in their content of protein, fat, carbohydrate and ash. There was a close correlation between the body composition of hatchery-raised fish and the composition of the diets fed....
Histopathology of fish. V. Gill disease
1957, Progressive Fish-Culturist (19) 7-13
Possibly no single disease accounts for greater annual mortality than gill disease. Apparently endemic in many hatcheries, the disease is characterized by periodic sharp upsurges which are sometimes correlated with rising water temperatures, excessive foreign matter in the water (Wales and Evins 1937), or borderline nutritional conditions....

Reconnaissance of beryl-bearing pegmatites in the Ruby Mountains, other areas in Nevada, and northwestern Mohave County, Arizona
Jerry Chipman Olson, E. Neal Hinrichs
1957, Trace Elements Investigations 655
Pegmatite occurs widely in Nevada and northwestern Arizona, but little mining has been done for such pegmatite minerals as mica, feldspar, beryl, and lepidolite. Reconnaissance for beryl-bearing pegmatite in Nevada and in part of Mohave County, Ariz., and detailed studies in the Dawley Canyon area, Elko County, Nev., have shown...
