Overview: Man-made textile fibers are frequently encountered as trace evidence in criminal investigations. This study examined the effects of burial in soil on the biodeterioration of synthetic textile fibers such as cellulose acetate, nylon, polyesters and acrylics. Cellulose acetate fibers began to show signs of decomposition within two months after burial in common garden topsoil and were completely degraded within four to nine months. It was found that severely decomposed cellulose acetate fibers could be identified by pyrolysis-gas liquid chromatography even when other methods such as pol

Overview: What have been brought together in these volumes are works represent­ ing a variety of modern quantitative studies on a select group of marine organisms. Some of the species studied here represent basic biological ex­ perimental subjects-in some cases, marine versions of the white rat and pigeon-that are being used for a wide range of studies. Other species studied were virtually unknown as experimental animals. The authors have studied their animals in considerable depth, often in both the field and the laboratory.

Overview: Die vorliegende Arbeit greift eine Fragestellung auf, die in der wirtschaftspolitischen Diskussion in Deutschland seit vielen Jahren einen Schwerpunkt bildet: das Verhältnis von Banken zu Industrieunternehmen.
