Morphology and Allergenic Properties of Basidiospores from Four Calvatia Species
Basidiospores of Calvatia cyathiformis have been identified in aerobiological studies, and spore extracts have demonstrated significant skin and radioallergosorbent test reactivity insensitive patients. Although fruiting bodies of Calvatia craniiformis, C. rubroflava, and C. gigantea re also relatively common, basidiospores of these species cannot be specifically identified from the atmosphere....
متن کاملOxygenator evaluation: Maxima 1380 versus Maxima Plus.
Continual improvement of oxygenators has been important in the growing demands of patient safety and support during cardiopulmonary bypass. The purpose of this study was to compare the Maxima 1380 oxygenator to the upgraded Maxima Plus oxygenator. Thirty-two adult patients were randomized to either the 1380 group or the Plus group. Information was recorded on the patients' weight, age, body sur...
متن کاملThe spatial resolution of the pinhole eyes of giant clams (Tridacna maxima).
Giant clams (Tridacna spp.) have several hundred small pinhole-type eyes on the exposed mantle. They respond by withdrawing the mantle to movements of dark objects, even if these cast no shadow on the animal as a whole. I investigated this 'sight reaction' using black and white square-wave gratings whose phase abruptly changed so that the white areas became dark and vice versa. Gratings with pe...
متن کاملChanges in fatty acid composition in the giant clam Tridacna maxima in response to thermal stress
Temperature can modify membrane fluidity and thus affects cellular functions and physiological activities. This study examines lipid remodelling in the marine symbiotic organism, Tridacna maxima, during a time series of induced thermal stress, with an emphasis on the morphology of their symbiont Symbiodinium First, we show that the French Polynesian giant clams harbour an important proportion o...
متن کاملSize-dependent photosynthetic performance in the giant clam Tridacna maxima, a mixotrophic marine bivalve
Giant clams form a symbiosis with photosynthetic algae of the genus Symbiodinium that reside in clam mantle tissue. The allometry of symbiont photosynthetic performance was investigated as a mechanism for the increasing percentage of giant clam carbon respiratory requirements provided by symbionts as clam size increases. Chlorophyll fluorescence measurements of symbionts of the giant clam Trida...
