The Temperature Coefficient of Phagocytosis

1. The experiments of Madsen and Watabiki on the effect of temperature on the phagocytosis of bacteria are discussed and a new analysis of their curves is given, showing that the rate of phagocytosis is very nearly a logarithmic function of the temperature from 0 degrees to 35 degrees C.; i.e., Q(10) is constant over that range and is equal to 2.0. 2. New experiments are reported on the effect ...

The Temperature Coefficient of Phagocytosis

number of bacteria ingested at the close of the experlment(instead of the maximum number of bacteria present, which, one is led to infer, was larger than A even at the higher temperatures) and x equal, as usual, to the number of bacteria ingested in time, T. Considering their method of analysis it is not surprising that they found it impossible to calculate the temperature coefficient of phago•...

A New Structure for Direct Measurement of Temperature Based on Negative Temperature Coefficient Thermistor and Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference System

Thermistors are very commonly used for narrow temperature-range high-resolution applications, such as in medicine, calorimetry, and near ambient temperature measurements. In particular, Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor is very inexpensive and highly sensitive, whose sensing temperature range and sensitivity are highly limited due to the intrinsic nonlinearity and self-heating p...
