Work is in progress on continuing existing projects.- In addition,
new projects have been initiated including the Kinetics and Mechanism of

Spectrographic Excitation Sources (40053).
Many of the Project units are either wholly or partially completed
and the following initial reports are available: Identification of Ferritin
in Blood of Dogs Subjected to Radiation from an Atomici Detonation (UCLA-180);
The Nutritional Value of Intravenous; Tapioca Dextrin in Normal and Irradiated
Rabbits (UCLA-181); The Decarboxylation and Reconstitution of Linoleic Acid
(UCLA-183);.Preparation and Properties of Thymus Nucleic Acid (UCLA-184);
