Pengaruh Pemberian Garam (NaCl) terhadap Kerusakan Telur Argulus Japonicus <br><i>[Effect of Salt (NaCl) Against Damage of Argulus japonicus Egg]<i>

Deliquescence of NaCl–NaNO3, KNO3–NaNO3, and NaCl–KNO3 salt mixtures from 90 to 120°C

We conducted reversed deliquescence experiments in saturated NaCl–NaNO3 – H2O, KNO3 – NaNO3 – H2O, and NaCl–KNO3 – H2O systems from 90 to 120 °C as a function of relative humidity and solution composition. NaCl, NaNO3 , and KNO3 represent members of dust salt assemblages that are likely to deliquesce and form concentrated brines on high-level radioactive waste package surfaces in a repository e...

Standardized Laboratory Feeding of Larval Aedes japonicus japonicus (Diptera: Culicidae)

The Asian bush mosquito (Aedes japonicus japonicus, Theobald 1901) is an invasive culicid species which originates in Asia but is nowadays present in northern America and Europe. It is a competent vector for several human disease pathogens. In addition to the public health threat, this invasive species may also be an ecological threat for native container-breeding mosquitoes which share a simil...

Scientific Note Laboratory Colonization of Aedes Japonicus Japonicus

We describe methodology used for the laboratory colonization of Aedes japonicus japonicus, an exotic mosquito species native to eastern Asia and first collected in New Jersey as larvae in 1999. We created a free mating colony in 2000 that readily bloodfed on restrained bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus). A larval diet of finely ground Purina Lab DietE dissolved in dechlorinated water has prov...

NaCl does not affect hypothalamic noradrenergic input in deoxycorticosterone acetate/NaCl and Dahl salt-sensitive rats.

Previous studies from our laboratories demonstrated that dietary NaCl supplementation in NaCl-sensitive spontaneously hypertensive rats elevates blood pressure, increases peripheral sympathetic nervous system activity, and depresses endogenous norepinephrine stores and turnover in the anterior hypothalamus. These findings suggest that reduced noradrenergic input to sympathoinhibitory neurons in...
