The phytochemical contents of cultivars of the same species can be significantly different, even within the same field. Evidence for this statement has been given in several recent papers and reviews glucosinolates (Rosa et al., 1997), phenolic compounds (Osier and Lindroth, 2001 Kalt et al., 2001 Howard et al., 2002 Scalzo et al., 2005 Dykes et al., 2005 Pandjaitan et al., 2005 Mpofu et al. 2006) and alkaloids and terpenoids (Theis and Lerdau, 2003). 

Field Layout and Management. The experiment was done on a level field of about 5 hectares on the Harford Teaching and Research Center of Cornell University at Harford, N.Y. The soil was a Howard gravelly loam with essentially uniform characteristics over the experimental area. The two formulations were applied to separate rectangular experimental plots of 2.97 hectares each,... 

Microprocessors, computers and robots are in themselves only subsets of the general field of automation. When the journal of Automatic Chemistry was launched in 1979, one of my fellow founders, Professor Howard Malmstadt, suggested that it would be many years before the journal would be understood in the USA. This, he believed, was because the term computing was generally considered synonymous with automation . The reahty that sample preparation was often the major bottleneck in analysis was ignored. More recently, robotics have found considerable favour, and, again, the term automation has been confused to refer to robotics and nothing else. 

The fourth chapter offers the perspectives of James B. Howard and Douglas C. Rees on non-heme iron protein chemistry. Section I of this chapter presents a particularly broad and accessible summary of iron-containing proteins, and subsection B gives a quite general discussion of experimental methods for characterizing metalloproteins which will be helpful to newcomers to the field. 

The ten chapters are organized into three main sections. The first four chapters (Jansson) introduce the reader to basic concepts and progress through a survey of both traditional linear and modern nonlinear methods. Chapters 5 (Jansson), 6 (Blass and Halsey), and 7 (Halsey and Blass) detail specific applications of a proven method to the fields of electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) and high-resolution infrared spectroscopy via three different instrumental techniques. Also included are brief examples of applications to nuclear and Raman spectroscopy. The final section, Chapters 8 (Frieden), 9 (Howard), and 10 (Howard), illustrates recent work and reveals some directions for potential future research. 

Mixed culture biodegradation studies are of four types (1) screening tests, (2) biological treatment simulations, (3) grab sample tests, and (4) field studies (Howard et al., 1987). 

At one time, researchers thought that Mother Nature provided all or most of the clues they needed to know how to make new proteins, but that simplistic view has changed. Today, scientists know that they can produce a virtually unlimited number of proteins, many of which do not exist in nature. One of the leading researchers in this field is David A. Baker at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute at the University of Washington. Baker s work suggests that the proteins found in nature represent only a hint of the possibilities that exist. 

Ground water t/2 = 1344-69000 h, based on estimated unacclimated aqueous aerobic biodegradation half-life and an estimated half-life for anaerobic biodegradation from a ground water field study of chlorinated ethenes (Silka Wallen 1988 quoted, Howard et al. 1991). 

Soil t,/2 = 252-2160 h, based on aerobic soil die-away test data (Anderson Domsch 1976 Smith 1970 quoted, Howard et al. 1991 Montgomery 1993) t,/2 = 30 d (Hartley Kidd 1987 quoted, Montgomery 1993) selected field t,/2 = 30 d (Augustijn-Beckers et al. 1994 Hornsby et al. 1996). 

Biodegradation aqueous aerobic t,/2 = 44-192 d, based on soil die-away test data and field study soil persistence (Banks et al. 1979 quoted, Howard et al. 1991) ... 

Biodegradation depending on soil and climatic conditions, the degradation t,/2 = 10 to 112 d, but a t,/2 = 40 d may be more common under field conditions (Walker 1976,78 Zandvoort et al. 1979 quoted, Howard 1991). Biotransformation second-order rate constant k = 5 x 10-14 L/organisms-h with an estimated t,/2 580 d for microbial degradation in natural water (Steen Collette 1989 quoted, Howard 1991).
