Sullivan studies

Sullivan studied 25 city playgrounds. He found several serious problems. The playgrounds were dirty. They were also overcrowded. They were also dangerous. Many parks had broken glass everywhere. Many parks also had broken equipment. 

According to a Frost and Sullivan study [20], the 2006 European market for biolubricants was 122000 tons (2.6% of the total lubricant use) with a growth rate of 6.6% per annum from 2006 to 2013. This means a biobased lubricant market volume of 190000 tonnes in Europe in 2013, where Germany and Scandinavia are the top markets with the Benelux countries set to show a significant growth in...

Several authors, beginning with Kmeger and Sullivan (1984), have noted a smaller 8 C fractionation between collagen and apatite (A,p.co) in carnivores as compared to herbivores. These authors presented a model to accoimt for this, and the observation was confirmed in studies by Lee-Thorp and van der Merwe (1991) of populations of carnivores and herbivores that differed widely in their intake of C3- and C4-based foods. Here 1 shall show how this effect might be accounted for as a consequence of partial blocking of AA synthesis from lipids.

HPLC was used to determine that Gymnodimum catenatum was the causative organism in PSP outbreaks in Tasmania (77) and Spain (Sullivan, unpublished). G. catenatum produces a suite of toxins predominated by the low-toxicity sulfamate toxins. Cl to C4, and while shellfish feeding on G. catenatum contain predominantly these toxins, they also contain some carbamate and decarbamoyl toxins. Currently, it is not known if the carbamate and decarbamoyl toxins are present due to chemical conversion from the sulfocarbamoyl form or due to selective retention of trace quantities already present in the dinoflagellates. The HPLC played a key role in these studies by providing a rapid, quantitative means to differentiate the various toxins present. 

HPLC has also been utilized in more complex food chain transfers. It has been known for some time that the toxins can be responsible for fish kills in the Bay of Fundy 18). The vectors for these fish kills are zooplankton that feed on toxic dinoflagellates. In two related studies (79 Sullivan, unpublished), HPLC was utilized to investigate the transport of toxins from dinoflagellates to zooplankton and then to fish. The HPLC method is ideally suited for this since only very small sample sizes (ca. 100,000 dinoflagellate cells) are required. 

Much of the analytical data on the nutrient content of foods is generated using official methods of analysis (e.g. AO AC International). An evaluation of AO AC Methods of Analysis for Nutritional Labelling is available (Sullivan and Carpenter 1993). While these methods have often been studied for a variety of food matrices, applicability over the entire range of food matrices has not been formally studied in most cases. In addition, RMs are not available over the entire range of food matrices (Wolf... 

The site and mechanism of absorption of ingested americium are not known. Based on studies of plutonium, it is likely that americium absorption occurs, at least to some extent, in the small intestine. Studies of the absorption of plutonium in preparations of in situ isolated segments of small intestine of immature miniature swine indicate that absorption of actinides can occur along the entire small intestine, with the highest rates of absorption occurring in the duodenum (Sullivan and Gorham 1982). 

Children s Susceptibility. No studies were located in which comparisons were made between the sensitivity of children and adults to the toxicity of americium. Animal studies indicate that juvenile dogs are less susceptible than adults to americium-induced bone cancer (Lloyd et al. 1999). No direct evidence was located to indicate that the pharmacokinetics of americium in children may be different from that in adults. Based on dosimetric considerations related to differences in the parameters of available models, as well as studies in animals, it seems likely that children may be more susceptible to americium toxicity than are adults by virtue of age-related differences in pharmacokinetics. Absorption of ingested americium may be as much as 200 times greater in neonatal animals than in adults. (Bomford and Harrison 1986 David and Harrison 1984 Sullivan et al. 1985).

In 1985, Sullivan et al. reported a voltammetric study on (Bipy)Re[CO]3Cl in acetonitrile with tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate (TBAHFP) as the supporting electrolyte. 

DPDPB has been used to study the endocytosis of cadherin from intracellular junctions (Troyanovsky et al., 2006), the subunit arrangement in the flagellar rotor assembly (Lowder et al., 2005), and the disease-associated mutations in myelin proteolipid protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (Swanton et al., 2005). DPDPB can be used to conjugate reduced antibody molecules to p-D-galactosidase using essentially the same protocol as that described by O Sullivan et al. (1979). 

Sullivan et al. [69] studied the loss of phthalic acid esters and chlorinated biphenyls from seawater whilst stored in glass containers. Equilibrium was essentially reached in 12 h at 25 °C. Labelled compounds were used in some of the studies. Table 1.10 shows that between 2.2 and 49.9% of the organic solutes were lost from the spiked solutions. 

Sullivan et al. [374] studied the loss of PCBs from seawater samples during storage.
