Following their use in the behavioral trials, sub-sets of the experimental females (n = 8) and experimental newly-emerged males (n = 8) were immediately sacrificed with an overdose of brevital sodium and their skin lipids were extracted with hexane overnight (LeMaster and Mason 2002). After removal of the animals, the extracts were returned to Western Oregon University where the methyl ketones composing the female sexual attractiveness pheromone were isolated using column chromatography (described in LeMaster and Mason 2002). 

In order to understand the BZ system Field, Koros and Noyes developed the so-called FKN mechanism. From this, Field and Noyes later derived the Oregonator model, an especially convenient kinetic model to match individual experimental observations and predict experimental conditions under which oscillations might arise.

The concept for fuel oil production from wood involves the catalyzed removal of oxygen from the wood molecules by reducing gases (H2, CO) at elevated temperatures and pressures. DOE is developing this concept at a pilot facility (2700 kg/d wood feed rate) at Albany, Oregon. Recent experimental work by Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory personnel suggests that the wood feedstock should be pretreated by mild acid hydrolysis before conversion.

Catastrophes occurring in these models in the presence of diffusion will be examined next. We shall investigate wave phenomena in the Fisher-Kolmogorov model and in the Oregonator as well as dissipative structures in the Brusselator. The studies of systems of reactions with diffusion, both experimental and theoretical, have not led yet to the formulation of a complete theory. Consequently, only fundamental results concerning the phenomena of a loss of stability type in these models will be presented. 

To end with, let us mention that the dissipative structures of a turbulent nature can be modelled by accounting in the Oregonator with flow equations (6.170) for the possibility of diffusion of reagents. The structures of this type have been observed experimentally. They can be modelled by means of equations of the type (6.120 ) in one state variable x... 

The experimental system employed in this paper is the light-sensitive Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. For numerical simulations only the underlying Oregonator model was used. However, our theoretical approach is based on a very general description of excitable media and does not rely on specific features of any experimental or model system. Therefore, our results are of general character, and can be applied to control spiral wave...
