Changes of Internal Hydrostatic Pressure and Body Shape in Acanthocephalus Ranae

نویسنده

  • R. A. HAMMOND
چکیده

Two hydraulic systems are primarily concerned in the movements of Acanthocephahis ranae (Schrank, 1788; Lvihe, 1911), that of the proboscis apparatus and that of the trunk (Hammond, 1966a). The muscles associated with each system operate about a fluid skeleton of constant volume. Muscular activity in either system, and therefore change of body shape, is accompanied by a change of hydrostatic pressure within the skeletal fluid. The present paper describes an investigation into the correlation between the movements of the animal and changes of hydrostatic pressure within it.

Numerical Study of Spherical Vapor Layer Growth Due to Contact of a Hot Object and Water

Vapor film formation and growth due to contact of a hot body and other liquids arise in some industrial applications including nuclear fuel rods, foundry and production of paper. The possibility of a steam explosion remains in most of these cases which could result in injuries and financial damage. Due to the importance of such phenomenon, this study deals with vapor layer forming, growth, and ...

P-96: Mechanical Activation of Parthenogenesis in Mouse Oocytes Using Hydrostatic Pressure

Effective protocols are introduced for parthenogenesis activation in oocytes. Hydrostatic pressure can act as a mechanical stimulator that rearranges egg contents, leading to new structural or molecular combination. Alternatively, mechanical stimulation could stimulate a mechanically-gated process, such as opening or closing of stretch activated ion channels. This study, investigated the use of...

P-229: Chromosomal Analysis of Parthenogenetic Mouse Embryos Generated from In Vitro Activated Oocytes by Hydrostatic Pressure and Ethanol and Cytochalasin B

Background: Studies of preimplantation stage embryos by classic cytogenetic techniques have limitations, starting with the need for good metaphase stage when only one third of all analyzed embryos may show good quality metaphases. The incidence of chromosome anomalies in embryos produced by in vitro procedures is generally higher than that of embryos formed in vivo. Pressure specifically affect...
