Factors affecting aerobic recovery heat production and recovery ratio of frog sartorius.

Factors affecting the recovery from diving bradycardia in the frog.

Activation Heat in Frog Sartorius Muscle

Upon excitation of a muscle with two stimuli and variation of the interval between them up to the end of the period of full mechanical fusion, an increment of the isometric heat over that found in a single twitch is obtained. This is a good approximation to the activation heat, directly at 0 degrees C, or after certain corrections which become important at higher temperature. The activation hea...

Evaluation of factors affecting on lipid extraction for recovery of fatty acids from Nannochloropsis oculata micro-algae to biodiesel production

Background: This study aimed at determining the appropriate method for dewatering and drying biomass and selecting a suitable organic solvent for lipid extraction. Methods: Nannochloropsis Oculata was cultured in Gillard F/2 medium and after reaching the end of the stationary growth phase, algal biomass was separated from aqueous by centrifuge and dried through three methods: Oven, Air-dried an...

Factors affecting recovery of Neosartorya fischeri ascospores after exposure to dry heat.

Recovery of Neosartorya fischeri ascospores subjected to a dry heat treatment (DHT) at 95 degrees C, 50% relative humidity (RH) for 60 minutes increased exponentially as the initial temperature of the recovery buffer increased. Different diluents were evaluated and the same recovery pattern was obtained when water or dilute buffers were used to recover the DHT spores. However, when glycerol was...

Metabolic heat production of neonatal calves during hypothermia and recovery.

Metabolic heat production and rectal temperature were measured in 19 newborn calves (41.8 +/- 3.7 kg) during hypothermia and recovery when four different means of assistance were provided. Hypothermia of 30 degrees C rectal temperature was induced by immersion in 18 degrees C water. Calves were rewarmed in a 20 to 25 degree C air environment where thermal assistance was provided by added therma...
