To date, no published study has assessed the full physiological scope of a marine invertebrate species with respect to both temperature and hydrostatic pressure. In this study, adult specimens of the shallow-water shrimp species Palaemonetes varians were subjected to a temperature/pressure regime from 5 to 30°C and from 0.1 to 30 MPa. The rate of oxygen consumption and behaviour in response to ...

Immature sheepshead minnows (Cyprinodon variegatus), inland silversides (Menidia beryllina), mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki), and grass shrimp (Palaemonetes pugio) were exposed to the mosquito adulticide, Permanone 31-66, in a series of static toxicity tests conducted in the laboratory. At 24 h, in order of decreasing susceptibility, LC50 values were 0.843, 4.07, 5.46, and 6.04 ppb for grass ...

zinnia elegans, an annual flowering plant of the genus zinnia, is one of the best known zinnias. present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different growing media on the growth and flowering of zinnia elegans. seven different growth media including coconut compost, silt, soil loam, leaf manure, (leaf manure + silt; 2:1), (coconut compost + soil loam; 1:1) and (leaf manure + soil loa...

Ratiometric Nanothermometers Organic nanoparticles based on persistent TTM radicals containing excimers and isolated molecules exhibit all characteristics of ratiometric nanothermometers showing excellent temperature sensitivity, reversibility, high colloidal stability. In-vivo experiments made with Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) indicate that they can monitor changes at the (nano)-micron ...
