چکیده
The effect of neem, Azadirachta indica A. Juss, on ultrastructural alteration of larvae and puparia of the blow fly, Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) and house fly, Musca domestica (Linnaeus) (Diptera: Muscidae), was investigated in the laboratory by using neem extract containing 0.24% azadirachtin A. Larvae of both species exposed to single dipping with the neem product exhibited swelling of the integument in relation to the control as determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed slight thickness of epicuticle, but intense thickness of procuticle. Multiple treatment of the larvae displayed noticeably swelling integument and bleb formation on the integument, indicating a dose-dependent relationshipPuparia of both fly species treated with neem product showed similar appearance under SEM and TEM analyses.

Vector and Tensor Field Topology Simplification on Irregular Grids
Topology-based visualization of planar turbulent flows results in visual clutter due to the presence of numerous features of very small scale. In this paper, we attack this problem with a topology simplification method for vector and tensor fields defined on irregular grids. This is the generalization of previous work dealing with structured grids. The method works for all interpolation schemes.
متن کاملEnhancement of peptide antigen presentation by a second peptide.
The influence of nonstimulatory "competitor" peptides on the binding of an antigenic peptide to a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecule was investigated. Using high-performance size-exclusion chromatography and fluorescein-labeled peptides, we show that the presence of the peptides dynorphin A-(1-13) and poly(L-lysine) results in enhancement rather than inhibition of the bind...

متن کاملSurface ultrastructure of third-instar Megaselia scalaris (Diptera: Phoridae).
We describe some ultrastructure of the third-instar Megaselia scalaris (Diptera: Phoridae) using scanning electron microscopy, with the cephalic segment, anterior spiracle and posterior spiracle being emphasized. This study provides the taxonomic information of this larval species, which may be useful to differentiate from other closely-related species.
