Abstract

Shoots of the marubakaido apple rootstock grown in culture medium containing BBL agar presented significantly lower multiplication rate (MR) compared to MRs found for shoots grown in medium containing A-7002, A-7921, Select, and Phytagar as gelling agents. In addition, significant hyperhydricity was found for shoots grown in Phytagar and A-7921 agar-containing media. Analysis of elastic (G') and viscous (G'') modulus showed that for all of the five agar brands used in this stu...

National Driller ; One of the most common tests performed on drilling fluids for most any drilling application is the viscosity test. Viscosity gives us an idea of fluid thickness and helps us get a general idea of how much bentonite or other products we have or need in a drilling fluid, but it does not tell us how
Relationship between stress wave velocities of green and dry veneer.
Forest Products Journal ; Abstract This paper evaluates the relationship between the stress wave velocities of green and dry southern pine and Douglas-fir veneers. A commercial stress wave timer and a laboratory signal analysis system were used to measure the transit time required for an induced stress wave to travel the
