Amphibians as models for studying environmental change.
The use of amphibians as models in ecological research has a rich history. From an early foundation in studies of amphibian natural history sprang generations of scientists who used amphibians as models to address fundamental questions in population and community ecology. More recently, in the wake of an environment that human disturbances rapidly altered, ecologists have adopted amphibians as ...
متن کاملUse of Xenopus laevis as a model for investigating in vitro and in vivo endocrine disruption in amphibians.
The estrogenic activity of 17beta-estradiol (E2), alpha-zearalenol (alpha-ZEA), genistein (GEN), and 4-t-octylphenol (4-t-OP) was investigated using Xenopus laevis-based assays. All test compounds competed with [3H]E2 for binding to a recombinant Xenopus estrogen receptor (xER) with the following relative affinities: E2 > alpha-ZEA > 4-t-OP > GEN. The ability of these compounds to induce xER-me...
متن کاملA quantitative model for optimization and disruption mitigation in a supply chain (Auto parts case study)
However, there is a lot of capital and plenty of manpower in the auto spare part industry, the enterprises and supply chains of this industry do not perform well in our country. This research models a three-level supply chain with multiple manufacturers, distribution centers and retailers, to minimize the total cost by taking into account various disruptions. The database of two active car spar...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Sea Urchins as a Model System for Studying Embryonic Development
Developmental biology is the scientific discipline primarily concerned with embryogenesis, the process by which a single cell (the fertilized egg) gives rise to a multicellular organism. Since the emergence of this field as an experimental science in the late 19th century, biologists have relied on a relatively small number of model organisms, each possessing certain distinctive and useful char...
