Complexity in host-pathogen dynamics : dispersal uncertainties, metapopulation persistence and the role of a changing climate

Creator:: Xie, Yang
Abstract:: Emerging infectious diseases impact both human and wildlife populations. Infectious agents, in particular the aquatic fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (chytrid), have an influential role in driving global amphibian population declines. The emergence of the chytrid fungus has aspects of both geographic spread as well as climate shifts altering environmental conditions and...

Energy need, nutrient intake, fitness, body composition, and health risk factors in women with childhood and adult-onset obesity before and after a 9-month nutrition education and walking program

Creator:: Moore, Jane M.
Abstract:: The effect of a 9—month nutrition education and walking program on energy need, body composition, nutrient intake, nutritional status, aerobic fitness, and health risk factors was determined in 7 women with childhood—onset obesity (CO) and 8 women with adult—onset obesity (AO). Data were collected before and after the 9—month program...

Analysis of the antineutrino rate during CANDU reactor startup

Creator:: Matthews, Christopher
Abstract:: Detection systems used to monitor reactor operations are of significant interest as tools for verification of operator declarations. Current reactor site safeguards are limited to visual inspections and intrusive monitoring systems. The recent development of antineutrino detectors may soon allow real-time monitoring from an unobtrusive location. Antineutrinos are produced through...

Dermatitic effect of nonionic surfactants

Creator:: Mezei, Michael
Abstract:: Selected nonionic surface active agents, incorporated in various ointment bases, were applied to normal rabbit skin daily in an attempt to determine their chronic toxicity. The dermatitic effects of these surfactant preparations were evaluated by three methods: gross observation, histological examination and biochemical techniques. The results indicated that the tested...
