Physiological Responses of Cattle to Heat Stress
Pakistan lies in the Warm Climate Zones of the world and is subjected to extended periods of high ambient temperature and relative humidity. The objective of this article is to review the physiologic/adaptive responses of acclimated cattle to heat stress emphasizing its affects on nutrient acquisition and metabolism, acid-base chemistry and hormonal balance of the body. Heat stress invokes a de...
متن کاملPhysiological responses of insects to heat
Postharvest quarantine treatments using high temperatures have been developed for various commodities. There are a wide range of insect pests that are the target of these treatments. In order to make heat treatments effective against these pests, the effects of high temperatures on insect physiology must be understood. Insects, being poikilothermic, are particularly sensitive to heat. Nearly ev...
متن کاملPhysiological responses of Australian Merino wethers exposed to high heat load.
Twelve 9-mo-old Merino wethers (30.4 ± 3.2 kg of BW) were used in a crossover study to investigate the heat tolerance of Australian Merino sheep by testing their physiological responses to repeated heat loads that occurred during summer months. Wethers were randomly divided into 2 groups of 6 wethers each, housed individually in an environmental chamber, and subjected to 2 d of thermoneutral co...
متن کاملEffect of various doses of injected selenium on performance and physiological responses of sheep to heat load.
The aim of the study was to determine the effects of various doses of injected Se on the physiological responses of sheep to heat load. Fifteen 9-mo-old Australian Merino wethers (mean BW = 27.2 ± 2.1 kg) were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 treatments: 0 (control), 0.5, and 5 mg of Se, which was administered as a subcutaneous sodium selenate injection (5 mg/mL Se) on d 1, 8, and 15 of exposure to ...
متن کاملFeasibility study on novel hybrid ground coupled heat pump system with nocturnal cooling radiator for cooling load dominated buildings
When the ground coupled heat pump (GCHP) system is utilized for air conditioning in cooling load dominated buildings, the heat rejected into ground will accumulate around the ground heat exchangers (GHE) and results in system performance degradation. A novel hybrid ground coupled heat pump (HGCHP) system with nocturnal cooling radiator (NCR) works as supplemental heat rejecter is proposed in th...
