Crocodiles vs People: A Possible Solution?
[ send me this paper ]
A 13 page paper describing crocodiles and
discussing ways in which people can coexist with them. Crocodiles coexisted with the
dinosaurs, but they have survived their reptilian relatives by 65 million years. All 23 species
were listed as endangered in 1971, but only seven remain so designated. In 2000, it was
discovered that crocodile cartilage possesses the same anti-tumor bioactivity as does shark
cartilage. Preservation of the crocodile could be important for more than only the
ecosystems in which they live. Management in Australia has demonstrated that crocodiles
and humans can indeed coexist, without undue strain on either the crocodiles or the
humans. Bibliography lists 14 sources.

Cryptococcus Neoformans
[ send me this paper ]
Cryptococcus Neoformans is a pathogen to humans and can cause a range of conditions from asymptomatic illness to lethal systemic disease. This 3 page paper looks at the pathogen, its' ecology, the diseases, symptoms, occurrence, treatment and prognosis. The bibliography cites 5 sources.

Current Research in Aspects of Cell Structure
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing current research trained on structure, rather than on processes. There is so much attention focused on biochemical pathways and the interactions of compounds with each other that the basics of structure are often overlooked. As it becomes more important to discover methods of
industrial miniaturization and continued enhancement of return on the raw materials of meat
and meat product production, we likely can expect greater focus on natural structures and their influence in regulating processes. The paper includes an outline and discussion of
research focusing on bacterial flagella, cell walls, cell division and nerve cells. Bibliography
lists 11 sources.

Cyanobacteria
[ send me this paper ]
This 4 page report discusses the origins, evolution, and purposes of cyanobacteria
Bibliography lists 6 sources.
Filename: BWcyanob.rtf
Cytochrome P450
[ send me this paper ]
Cytochrome P450 (CYP450 or P450) is the term used for a sizeable quantity of oxidative enzymes that are evolutionarily related. This 24 page paper looks at what these enzymes are, where they are found, their catalytic cycle, the physical characteristics, the importance to humans including how they are induced in humans, the genes and what happens when they do not function correctly. The bibliography cites 30 sources.
