Acid exposure is an immune disruptor in adult Rana pipiens.
Acidic environments are physiological stressors for amphibians. The objective of the present study was to document the effect of an acidic environment on innate immune system function under controlled experimental conditions in Rana pipiens. We developed an in vivo assay, by injecting a suspension of 1-microm fluorescent beads in fluid thioglycollate, to induce peritonitis. The number of perito...
متن کاملVoltage Clamp Experiments on Single Muscle Fibers of Rana pipiens
A voltage clamp for single muscle fibers has been developed. Stability of the system was achieved when an artificial node was created by enclosing a single muscle fiber in a petroleum jelly seal which served as an analogue of the myelin sheath. Typical voltage clamp records were obtained with large inward transient currents followed by a delayed rectification of the outward currents. These curr...
متن کاملJumping Performance of Frogs (rana Pipiens) as a Function of Muscle Temperature
This study was performed to determine whether or not the power generated by frog muscles during maximal jumps increases twoto three-fold with a 10 °C increase in temperature as it does in isolated preparations. We found that peak power increased 2-7-fold between 14 and 25 °C, and then remained constant to 30 °C. During jumps at 14 and 25 °C, the extensor muscles of the legs appeared to generate...
متن کاملThe Epidermis of Rana Pipiens
The epidermis of adult Rana pipiens has been studied by electron microscopy and histological and histochemical methods. It was found that the epidermis is engaged in the production of both keratin and mucus. The basal cells are mainly filled with tonofilaments, whereas the cells located in the mid-portion of the epidermis contain both tonofilaments and mucous granules. Golgi vesicles and endopl...

translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
