Data on uranium and radium in ground water in the United States, 1954 to 1957
This report is one of a series resulting from a study by the U.S. Geological Survey to determine the occurrence and distribution of naturally radioactive substances in water. From 1954-57 uranium and radium concentrations were determined in 561 samples, mainly of ground water, having wide geologic and geographic distribution. These concentrations, together with data on the hydrologic and geologic

Distribution and detoxication of toxaphene in Clayton Lake, New Mexico
The fate of toxaphene, applied in three treatments at a total calculated concentration of 0.05 p.p.m. to Clayton Lake, New Mexico, was followed over a 1.5-year period. A detailed description of the chromatographic method of analysis is given. Water concentrations of toxaphene were higher in leeshore samples than in windward samples for 2 weeks after the application; toxaphene levels then appeared

Studies of transmission of mycobacterial infections in Chinook salmon
THE INCLUSION OF VISCERA AND CARCASSES OF TUBERCULOUS ADULT SALMON IN THE DIET OF JUVENILE SALMONIDS is considered to be the major source of mycobacterial infections in hatchery-reared fish (Wood and Ordal, 1958; Ross, Earp, and Wood, 1959). In considering additional modes of infection, we speculated about transovarian transmission or a mechanical process arising from contamination of the ova at t

Intraspecific differences in serum antigens of red salmon demonstrated by immunochemical methods
The sera of most Alaskan red salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka Walbaum) were found to contain at least 14 antigenic components when tested by the double diffusion precipitin analysis method of Ouchterlony with antisera prepared in rabbits. Two of these components, designated antigens I and II, were missing from 116 of 125 blood samples from red salmon taken in Asian waters. In contrast, only 31 of 905 bl
