Limitations on Animal Flight Performance
Flight performance seems to change systematically with body size: small animals can hover and fly over a wide range of speeds, but large birds taxi for takeoff and then fly over a narrow speed range. The traditional explanation for this is that the mass-specific power required for flight varies with speed according to a U-shaped curve, and it also scales between m° and m/, where m is body mass....
متن کاملHigh-performance photorefractive organic glasses: understanding mechanisms and limitations
Since the first observation of the photorefractive (PR) effect in polymers, extensive efforts have been directed toward understanding the physics of the PR process in these systems, as well as optimizing polymer composites and glasses for various applications. Despite remarkable progress both in elucidating the mechanisms and processes contributing to the PR effect and in designing organic mate...
متن کاملAnimal Health - Growth and Immunity
We evaluated anti-Campylobacter activity among 11,790 isolates of lactic acid bacteria from poultry production environments. We measured zones of C. jejuni inhibition surrounding the candidate strains and observed 279 isolates exhibiting antagonism. A Lactobacillus salivarius strain PVD32, was identified and deposited under provisions of the Budapest Treaty (NRRL B-30514). The cell-free, ammoni...
متن کاملCationic peptides: effectors in innate immunity and novel antimicrobials.
Cationic antimicrobial peptides are produced by all organisms, from plants and insects to human beings, as a major part of their immediately effective, non-specific defences against infections. With the increasing development of antibiotic resistance among key bacterial pathogens, there is an urgent need to discover novel classes of antibiotics. Therefore, cationic peptides are being developed ...
متن کاملAnimal models of contraception: utility and limitations
Appropriate animal modeling is vital for the successful development of novel contraceptive devices. Advances in reproductive biology have identified novel pathways for contraceptive intervention. Here we review species-specific anatomic and physiologic considerations impacting preclinical contraceptive testing, including efficacy testing, mechanistic studies, device design, and modeling off-tar...
