Sustained attention under thermal stress.
This article reviews the effects of the thermal environment on vigilance. A reinterpretation of early and contemporary studies contradicts the existing notion that vigilance is facilitated in ambient temperatures that exceed a comfortable level. Rather, performance is degraded as thermal homeostasis of the observer is disturbed. Significant breakdown in capability becomes manifest with measurab...
متن کاملEffects of different levels of zinc on the performance and immunocompetence of broilers under heat stress.
Male broilers were used to evaluate the effect of zinc on performance and immune competence during heat stress (HS). Broilers raised in either a thermoneutral (TN, 23.9 degrees C constant) or HS (23.9 to 35 degrees C cycling) environment were fed a low zinc diet (LZ; 34 mg/kg), an adequate zinc diet (AZ; 68 mg/kg), or a supplemental zinc diet (HZ; 181 mg/kg). Humoral immunity was assessed by in...
متن کاملThermal stress depletes energy reserves in Drosophila
Understanding how environmental temperature affects metabolic and physiological functions is of crucial importance to assess the impacts of climate change on organisms. Here, we used different laboratory strains and a wild-caught population of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster to examine the effect of temperature on the body energy reserves of an ectothermic organism. We found that permanen...
متن کاملApparent ileal digestibility of amino acids and metabolisable energy value in grains for broilers
Using ileal digestible amino acids in feed optimising will intensify feed protein utilizing and decrease nitrogen excretion to the environment. The study determined the apparent ileal digestibility (AID) coefficients of amino acids in barley, wheat, oats, triticale, maize, and dehulled oats in the diets of 180 Ross broiler chickens (aged 24–35 days). The birds were fed semi-purified diets that ...
متن کاملAscorbic Acid and Citric Flavonoids for Broilers Under Heat Stress: Effects on Performance and Meat Quality
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of increasing doses of ascorbic acid (AA) and citric flavonoids (quercetin and rutin) on the performance and meat quality characteristics of broilers submitted to cyclic heat stress. Four-hundred one-day-old female Ross 308 were housed in 40 battery cages a in temperature controlled room. Treatments consisted of 0, 250, 500, and 1000 g/ton on of...
