Large numbers of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) use habitat in tidewater glaciers in Alaska for pupping, breeding, and molting.Glacial fjords are also popular tourist destinations; however, visitation by numerous vessels can result in disturbance of seals during critical life-history phases.We explored factors affecting haul-out behavior of harbor s
Multiple poliovirus-induced organelles suggested by comparison of spatiotemporal dynamics of membranous structures and phosphoinositides.
At the culmination of poliovirus (PV) multiplication, membranes are observed that contain phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI4P) and appear as vesicular clusters in cross section.Induction and remodeling of PI4P and membranes prior to or concurrent with genome replication has not been well studied.Here, we exploit two PV mutants, termed EG and GG,
Deep vein thrombosis in joint replacement surgeries-A prospective analysis
Ski de fond - Accessoires - Fartage Background: Orthopaedic surgeries are included in high-risk group for development of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).Since there is paucity of Indian data regarding the extent to which patients are affected with DVT, the study was aimed to get an idea of the incidence of DVT in hip and knee replacements and to analyze
Habitat and Landform Types Drive the Distribution of Carabid Beetles at High Altitudes
The high altitude mountain slopes of the Dolomites (Italian Alps) are characterized by great habitat and landform heterogeneities.In this paper, we investigated the effect of Nature 2000 habitat and landform types in driving the high altitude ground beetle (Carabidae) distribution in the Western Dolomites (Brenta group, Italy).We studied the carabi
