Steady state NMR imaging of cerebral blood volume as an index of chronic hypoxia induced angiogenesis.
Neovascularization. Brain -- Blood-vessels -- Magnetic resonance imaging. Blood volume -- Measurement. Cerebral circulation -- Measurement. Anoxemia. Blood Volume Determination -- methods.
Angiogenesis is part of the natural defense mechanism in brain against hypoxia and ischemia. Animal models and methods for the non-invasive investigation of cerebral angiogenesis are needed. This thesis addresses the hypothesis that steady state,...

Iron and sulfur mineralogy and redox transformations in soils and sediments: implications for trace metal dynamics.
Soils -- Arsenic content. Arsenic wastes -- Biodegradation. Ferric hydroxides -- Biodegradation. Sulfides -- Metallurgy. Groundwater -- Arsenic content -- Cambodia.
Iron minerals are ubiquitous in near surface environments and often readily sorb or coprecipitate with many trace metals. Transformations of iron phases are, therefore, integral to the fate of trace metals in most near surface aqueous regimes....
