    Notes: SUMMARY— Results obtained by a thermal extraction procedure for determining the fat content of fresh ground beef were found to correlate significantly (1% level) with results obtained by the official AOAC solvent extraction procedure. The fat levels investigated ranged between 14 and 29%. As the amount of sample grinding increased, the fat variation within thermal extraction replications decreased, while the differences between the thermal and solvent extracted fat became larger.Linear regression between the two methods contained significant error in certain areas of the fat range tested. The fourth order polynomial provided the best fit curve between the solvent and thermal extraction data for thermal samples ground once through a plate having g-in. diameter holes and twice through a plate having holes 1/8-in. in diameter. The thermal extraction method, being adequately reproducible, rapid, and economical, provides a valuable tool to the food industry in control procedure and to the Armed Forces in its quality assurance tests.

    Notes: In this paper we describe an experimental approach which allows turgor (p) in an impeded root to be measured without the need to remove the root from the impeding environment. The maximum axial growth pressure (σmax) generated by completely impeded pea (Pisum sativum L.) roots was measured using a novel apparatus incorporating a force transducer. The apparatus was designed so that it was possible to gain access to the impeded root with the microcapillary of a pressure probe and so obtain in situ measurements of P. Turgor in cells in the apical region of impeded roots was 0.78 MPa, compared with 0.55 MPa in unimpeded roots. In impeded roots, σmax was 0.52 MPa, showing that the pressure component resulting from cell wall tension (W, where W=P–σ) decreased from 0.55 to 0.26 MPa as the roots became impeded. When impeded roots were removed from the apparatus, there was no decrease in P over the following 90 min. Impedance did not cause P to change in the non-elongating part of the roots further from the apex.

    Notes: The application of fracture mechanics to dry soil has been investigated. Discs moulded from sand and kaolinite pastes, into which artificial tension cracks were introduced, were fractured using the indirect tension technique. The basic linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) approach was found inadequate to describe the observed relation between the imposed flaw size and the failure stress. Fracture mechanics have been extended to dry soil by adding a crack length increment, Δc, to the imposed flaw size, c, to account for energy dissipation by processes other than the creation of new surfaces. This increment seems to represent the effective size of a ‘process zone’ ahead of the crack tip in which energy is dissipated by micro-cracking and internal friction. Further experiments done using specimens containing two collinear cracks separated by a variable distance and using samples of different size showed that the two cracks behaved effectively as one for separation distances less than about Δc. For specimen sizes much bigger than Δc fracture testing was found to be scale-invariant for geometrically similar specimens.

    Notes: Standard growth curves for bream, roach, chub and dace were constructed using published data for the British Isles. Comparison of length for age of fish from any habitat with these standard curves enables a growth index to be calculated where slow, normal and fast growth give indices less than, equal to and greater than 100, respectively.

    Notes: The characteristics of spaghetti produced from two high temperature (HT) drying cycles, one featuring HT at the initial stages of drying (HT-A) and one featuring HT during the latter stages of drying (HT-B) were compared to spaghetti produced by low temperature (LT) drying. Both HT cycles had the advantage of greatly reduced drying time. In addition HT-A spaghetti exhibited much enhanced color intensity compared to LT spaghetti. Although HT-A spaghetti cooking properties were marginally inferior to LT spaghetti, cooking quality was still satisfactory. Spaghetti from HT-B was equal to or better than LT spaghetti in color quality while also exhibiting improved strand strength and superior cooking properties.

    Notes: The elasticity of root tips was investigated in experiments of the static clamped-beam type. The response was non-linear. The results were interpreted in terms of a generalized elastic modulus M, and two parameters, α and β, which account for the non-linearity.Seminal axes and primary lateral roots of 16 crop species grown in the laboratory show significant inter-species differences but insignificant inter-variety differences in the elastic properties. A smaller set of results for field-grown roots with two tillage treatments shows that, in nearly all cases, the elastic modulus is smaller and the diameter is larger than with laboratory-grown roots. Environmental factors such as water potential, and nutrition have significant influences on the diameters and elastic behaviour of roots.

    Notes: The mechanical stresses required to buckle root tips were measured directly for seven plant species. For two of these, both seminal and primary lateral roots were measured. For four of the plant species investigated, the easier and more rapid method used to measure the buckling stresses of excised root tips gave results which agree closely with those obtained for the growing roots of intact plants. Values of buckling stress were also calculated from previously determined elastic properties of roots. The calculated and measured values of buckling stress are of the same magnitude only, and comparison for ten root types fails to show any consistent relationship between these two methods. From the results from three plant species it has been possible to define empirical functions to account for the observed changes in root buckling stress with air gap length and water stress. Buckling stresses are not significantly affected by the concentration of nitrate in the growth medium.
