Ecologically relevant measures of tolerance to potentially lethal temperatures.
The acute thermal tolerance of ectotherms has been measured in a variety of ways; these include assays where organisms are shifted abruptly to stressful temperatures and assays where organisms experience temperatures that are ramped more slowly to stressful levels. Ramping assays are thought to be more relevant to natural conditions where sudden abrupt shifts are unlikely to occur often, but it...
متن کاملLethal effect of high temperatures on the eggs of Fasciola hepatica
Fasciolosis is a cosmopolitan parasitic disease with considerable economic and public health importance. Fasciola hepaticais the major cause of fasciolosis in man and domestic animals. Although remarkable research works have been done around the optimum temperature and time required for miracidial development, little is known aboutthe exact susceptibility of Fasciola hepaticaeggs to high temper...
متن کاملLethal effects of synthetic juvenile hormone on the human body louse.
The effectiveness of synthetic juvenile hormone in the control of noxious insects and arthropod vectors of disease has already been documented in the case of the yellow-fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti.I The present study reports the lethal action of this same synthetic juvenile hormone on Pediculus humanus var. corporis, the vector of epidemic typhus, trench fever, and epidemic relapsing fever. M...
متن کاملEffect of Sublethal and Lethal Temperatures on Plant Cells '
A bstract. Soybean, Glycine max L., and elodea, Elodea canadensis Michx, leaves were exposed to sublethal and lethal temperatures and examined by light microscopy. Loss of ohlorophyll and swollen chloroplasts were observed in cells of elodea leaves exposed to sublethal temperatures. At the thermal death point of leaf cells of elodea and soybean, there was a disorganization of the tonoplast memb...
متن کاملSelective lethal effect of supranormal temperatures on mouse sarcoma cells.
characteristic studied (aneuploidy, length of time in culture, and rate of growth) could be correlated significantly with thermosensitivity. All the cultures of tumor-derived and tumor-producing cells exhibited the same high degree of thermosensitivity, i.e., death of 95% of the cells after 2 hr exposure at 42.5°. All the cultured normal, nontumor-producing cells exhib ited a lower degree of h...
