12,4-Dihydroxy-7-methoxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-onel DIMBOA was extracted with ethyl acetate from acidified water homogenates of corn (Zea mays L.) seedlings. Pure DIMBOA or ethyl acetate extracts of corn tissue were added to bacterial growth medium at five concentrations (measured as hydroxamates). DIMBOA and corn extracts were more inhibitory to soft rot bacteria (Erwinia spp.) that are nonp...

The compatibility of wood from mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosa) killed lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia) with Portland cement was investigated based on time-since-death as a quantitative estimator, and the presence of blue-stained sapwood, brown rot, or white rot as qualitative indicators. The exothermic behavior of cement hydration, maximum heat rate, time to reach th...
