Cytochalasine B is an indicator in the CBMN assay, but can also be geno- or cytotoxic. The aim of study was to determine optimal dose cytochalasine for Cytokinesis-Block Micronucleus (CBMN) assay domestic cat. results revealed a surprisingly high number micronuclei (MN) relation doses used. It found that concentration 2.5 μg/ml enough obtain binuclear cells, with minimal toxic effect on lymphoc...

We used aerial photographs, satellite images, and field surveys to monitor forest cover in the core zones of the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve in Mexico from 2001 to 2012. We used our data to assess the effectiveness of conservation actions that involved local, state, and federal authorities and community members (e.g., local landowners and private and civil organizations) in one of the w...

An anticoagulant isolated from salivary gland extracts of the ixodid tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus was purified by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, ion exchange on DEAE-cellulose, aprotinin-Sepharose, and by high-pressure-liquid size-exclusion chromatography. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the anticoagulant activity was associated with a protein of an...

Landscape connectivity is considered a priority for ecosystem conservation because it may mitigate the synergistic effects of climate change and habitat loss. Climate change predictions suggest changes in precipitation regimes, which will affect the availability of water resources, with potential consequences for landscape connectivity. The Greater Calakmul Region of the Yucatan Peninsula (Mexi...
