Genetic regulation of acute tolerance to ethanol may be associated with ethanol consumption and other ethanol-related behaviors in rodents. We have used lines of mice, selectively bred for high and low acute functional tolerance (HAFT and LAFT, respectively) to ethanol-induced loss of balance to test this hypothesis. Replicate HAFT and LAFT lines differ in AFT to ethanol-induced loss of balance...

Heavy metals widely enter into aquatic ecosystems, and cause various environmental problems due to bioaccumulation and biomagnification in food chains. The accumulation of heavy metals in bivalve tissues is affected by a number of intrinsic and extrinsic factors such as physiological conditions, growth, seasonal changes, pH, salinity, temperature, genera and age. The present study investigated ...
