Information-seeking behaviour of sniffer dogs during match-to-sample training in the scent lineup
Qualitative and quantitative changes in dogs’ information-seeking behaviours during the subsequent phases of operant conditioning training using a scent lineup, were investigated. Particular interest was paid to behaviours which may have an impact on errors committed by dogs at work in a scent lineup and thus on the reliability of the canine identification of humans on the base of scent. Signif...
متن کاملsiRNA Off-Target Effects Can Be Reduced at Concentrations That Match Their Individual Potency
Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are routinely used to reduce mRNA levels for a specific gene with the goal of studying its function. Several studies have demonstrated that siRNAs are not always specific and can have many off-target effects. The 3' UTRs of off-target mRNAs are often enriched in sequences that are complementary to the seed-region of the siRNA. We demonstrate that siRNA off-target...
متن کاملFemale marmoset monkeys (Callithrix jacchus) can be identified from the chemical composition of their scent marks.
The present study analyzed 42 organic solvent extracts of scent mark pools from five dominant female common marmosets by gas chromatography (GC) and combined GC and mass spectrometry. We determined whether there were qualitative or quantitative differences between the chemical composition of scent marks from individual females. Gas chromatography and mass spectral analysis detected the same 162...
متن کاملCan we match Ultraviolet Face Images against their Visible Counterparts?
In law enforcement and security applications, the acquisition of face images is critical in producing key trace evidence for the successful identification of potential threats. However, face recognition (FR) for face images captured using different camera sensors, and under variable illumination conditions, and expressions is very challenging. In this paper, we investigate the advantages and li...
متن کاملManaging Anal Furunculosis in Dogs
CE Canine anal furunculosis (perianal fistula) is a chronic disease of the perianal, anal, and/or rectal tissue characterized by the presence of ulcerative tracts.The specific cause of this debilitating disease is unknown and continues to be controversial. Nevertheless, a multifactorial immune-mediated mechanism is suspected. Diagnosis is usually straightforward in German shepherds presenting w...
