چکیده
Decision 14.78 (Rev. CoP15) directs the Secretariat to produce an updated analysis of MIKE data, and invites TRAFFIC to submit an updated analysis of ETIS data, UNEP-WCMC to provide an overview of the latest elephant trade data and the IUCN/SSC African and Asian Elephant Specialist Groups to submit new and relevant information on the conservation status of elephants, and on pertinent conservation actions and management strategies, for consideration at the present meeting of the Standing Committee. This document has been prepared accordingly and is presented as an integrated piece of work to assess the status of elephants, levels of illegal killing and trade in ivory.

Origin of urinary nonconjugated 19-nor-deoxycorticosterone and metabolism of infused radiolabeled 19-nor-deoxycorticosterone in men and women.
It is known that 19-nor-deoxycorticosterone (19-nor-DOC) is a potent mineralocorticosteroid that is present in urine of rats and humans in a free, i.e., nonconjugated, form. In some forms of hypertension in rats, the levels of free 19-nor-DOC in urine are increased compared with those in urine of normotensive animals. Yet, despite the potential importance of this mineralocorticosteroid in the p...
متن کاملChemical and carbon isotopic evidence for the source and fate of dissolved organic matter in the northern Everglades
Surface waters in the Florida Everglades contain high levels of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) compounds. C values of DOC samples collected from the northern Everglades indicate that less than about 23% of the DOC was derived from sugarcane (the dominant agricultural crop in the area), and the amount of DOC from sugarcane was greater during the dry period. Most of the DOC (> 50%) in the norther...
متن کاملMild heating of amphotericin B-desoxycholate: effects on ultrastructure, in vitro activity and toxicity, and therapeutic efficacy in severe candidiasis in leukopenic mice.
Heated (20 min at 70 degrees C) amphotericin B-desoxycholate (hAMB-DOC) was further characterized, as was another formulation obtained after centrifugation (60 min, 3000 x g), hcAMB-DOC. Conventional AMB-DOC consisted of individual micelles (approximately 4 nm in diameter) and threadlike aggregated micelles, as revealed by cryo-transmission electron microscopy. For both hAMB-DOC and hcAMB-DOC, ...
متن کاملRelationship of 19-nor-deoxycorticosterone to other mineralocorticoids in low-renin hypertension.
A number of mineralocorticoids have been proposed as etiologic factors in low-renin hypertension. In this study, urinary free 19-nor-deoxycorticosterone (UF 19-nor-DOC) was compared to other mineralocorticoids--aldosterone, deoxycorticosterone (DOC), and 18-OH-DOC, in 11 low-renin hypertensive patients on a controlled diet in a metabolic unit. Results demonstrated that both UF 19-nor-DOC and te...
متن کاملThe dual influences of dissolved organic carbon on hypolimnetic metabolism: organic substrate and photosynthetic reduction
We investigated the effect of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) on hypolimnetic metabolism (accumulation of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and methane (CH4)) in 21 lakes across a gradient of DOC concentrations (308 to 1540 !mol C L). The highly colored nature of the DOC in these lakes suggests it is mostly of terrestrial origin. Hypolimnetic methane accumulation was positively correlated with ep...
