The conditions experienced early in life can strongly influence life-history trajectories in a variety of animal species. Here, we use data from four isolated populations of the endangered stream-dwelling salmonid marble trout (Salmo marmoratus Cuvier 1817) living in the Soca and Idrijca river basins (Slovenia) to explore the influence of the total density experienced during and after the first...

The effect of fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin (5-HT) reuptake inhibitor, was studied in a model of anxiety and/or obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) in mice. In the anxiety/OCD model, marble-burying behavior, marble-burying was significantly suppressed by fluvoxamine at 30 and 60 mg/kg, p.o. and the monoamine reuptake inhibitor clomipramine, at 60 mg/kg, p.o. No suppressive effect, however,...

Massive production of tiny droplets is critical for industrial processes and biomedical applications. Such are formed by splitting the bulk liquid (top-down) or condensation to grow droplet (bottom-up). Various generation methods have been reported; however, generated stick contacting substrate and/or coalesce into a larger droplet, limiting handling flexibility size uniformity. Herein, powder-...
