Specificity Of The Cardiac Response To Conspecific Vocalizations In Chimpanzees, Gary G. Berntson, Sarah T. Boysen Apr 1989

Specificity Of The Cardiac Response To Conspecific Vocalizations In Chimpanzees, Gary G. Berntson, Sarah T. Boysen

Sentience Collection

Heart rate measures were used to examine the functional response of young chimpanzees and orangutans to acoustic stimuli, including white noise and chimpanzee vocalizations (threat, stress, and alarm). The initial response of the animals to all stimuli was characterized by a prominent cardiac deceleration and an increase in heart period variability. The deceleratory responses persisted with repeated presentations of the noise, stress, and alarm stimuli. In contrast, the response of chimpanzees to the conspecific threat stimulus reverted over trials to a notable cardiac acceleration. This acceleratory response was not attributable to potential patterns of evoked somatic responses. The features of …

Edema Disease-Like Brain Lesions In Gnotobiotic Piglets Infected With Escherichia Coli Serotype 0157:H7, David H. Francis, Rodney A. Moxley, Cecile Y. Andraos Apr 1989

Edema Disease-Like Brain Lesions In Gnotobiotic Piglets Infected With Escherichia Coli Serotype 0157:H7, David H. Francis, Rodney A. Moxley, Cecile Y. Andraos

School of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences: Faculty Publications

Gnotobiotic piglets inoculated with Escherichia coli serotype 0157:H7 strains that produced Shiga-like toxin II developed brain lesions similar to those observed in edema disease of swine, including arteriolar necrosis and malacia. Loss of ability to produce Shiga-like toxin II resulted in loss of ability to cause brain lesions.

Isolation And Partial Characterization Of Basic, Sperm-Specific, Nuclear Proteins In The Dog And Hampster, Richard William Hall Apr 1989

Isolation And Partial Characterization Of Basic, Sperm-Specific, Nuclear Proteins In The Dog And Hampster, Richard William Hall

Biological Sciences Theses & Dissertations

The purpose was to determine whether dogs and hamsters contain the same sperm-specific protamine and testis specific proteins (TP) as other eutherian mammals previously studied. The proteins (protamine and TPs) were isolated from spermatids and mature spermatozoa, and were subjected to electrophoresis in an acid-urea, polyacrylamide gel system according to the procedure of Panyim and Chalkley (1962). The results indicated that, regardless of the anatomical location of sperm acquisition, acid precipitation technique, or denaturing agents used, epididymal and testicular samples from both the dog and hamster contained protamine in elongated spermatids and mature spermatozoa. The protamines from dogs and hamsters …

Effect Of Cyclosporine On The Rate Of Renal Function Recovery After Renal Transplantation, Francis Dumler Mar 1989

Effect Of Cyclosporine On The Rate Of Renal Function Recovery After Renal Transplantation, Francis Dumler

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

To assess the effect of cyclosporine therapy on the rate of renal function recovery after renal transplantation, patients with no clinical evidence of rejection and who were treated with either cyclosporine or azathioprine in addition to steroid therapy were studied (n = 74). Of the patients with immediate renal function (n = 57), those receiving organs from living, related donors had a faster recovery rate of glomerular filtration than patients with cadaveric grafts (azathioprine, 15 ± 2 versus 7 ± 1 mL/min/day, P = 0.0001; cyclosporine, 14 ± 3 versus 6 ± 1 mL/min/day, P = 0.001). Recipients of cadaveric …

Changes In Mule Deer Size In Utah, Dennis D. Austin, Robert A. Riggs, Philip J. Urness, David L. Turner, John F. Kimball

Great Basin Naturalist

Trends in age-specific, eviscerated carcass weights were determined for hunter-harvested yearling and two-year-old buck mule deer. Carcass weights declined over an 11-year period from two areas of similar management, but with independenly collected data sets. Carcass weights also declined between the opening and second weekends of the hunt. Management implications are discussed.

Economic Impact Of Growing Phomopsis-Resistant Lupins, J M. Warren, Jeremy Allen, Wallace Cowling Jan 1989

Economic Impact Of Growing Phomopsis-Resistant Lupins, J M. Warren, Jeremy Allen, Wallace Cowling

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

The planting of Phomopsis-resistant lupins will increase net farm income. They will also alter the traditional blend of pastures and cropping, depending on grain and wool prices. In mixed farming areas of Western Australia's southern wheatbelt, they will allow more land to be sown to lupins rather than cereals on farms in which the lack of sheep feed over summer severely restricts wool production.

The benefits of Phompsis-resistant lupins arise from a reduction in sheep deaths due to lupinosis, a longer safe grazing period (free from lupinosis) on lupin stubbles, a decrease in the need for supplementary sheep feed over …


Pig Vocalizations Under Selected Husbandry Practices, H. Xin, J. A. Deshazer, Daniel W. Leger Jan 1989

Pig Vocalizations Under Selected Husbandry Practices, H. Xin, J. A. Deshazer, Daniel W. Leger

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

Acoustical characteristics of vocalizations of sows, piglets, and nursery pigs under selected husbandry practices were analyzed with a digital signal processing system. The duration (D) and major energy-resonance frequency (P) for each call were determined as follows: a) processing of piglets (D = 0.81 s and f* = 3 700 Hz); b) food anticipation of breeding-gestation sows (2.50 s and 3 000 Hz); c) isolation of piglet (0.34 s and 500, 3 500 Hz); d) startling of nursery pigs (0.29 s and 900 Hz); e) sows in heat (3.07 s and 1 375 Hz); f) farrowing (0.10 s and 3 …

Acceptance Of Simulated Oral Rabies Vaccine Baits By Urban Raccoons, John Hadidian, Suzanne R. Jenkins, David H. Johnston, Peter J. Savarie, Victor F. Nettles, David M. Manski, George M. Baer

Veterinary Science and Medicine Collection

In summer 1986, a study was conducted to evaluate raccoon (Procyon lotor) acceptance of oral baits that could be used for rabies vaccination, One thousand wax-coated sponge bait cubes were filled with 5 mg of a seromarker (iophenoxic acid), placed in polyethylene bags, and hand-distributed in an 80 ha area within an urban National Park in Washington, D.C. (USA), After 3 wk, target and nontarget animals were trapped and blood samples collected to evaluate bait uptake. Thirty-three of 52 (63%) raccoons had elevated blood iodine levels indicating they had eaten at least one bait, 13 (25%) were negative, and six …


Conversations With Veterinary Students: Attitudes, Ethics, And Animals, Harold A. Herzog, Tamara L. Vore, John C. New Jr. Jan 1989

Conversations With Veterinary Students: Attitudes, Ethics, And Animals, Harold A. Herzog, Tamara L. Vore, John C. New Jr.

Attitudes Towards Animals Collection

Interviews were conducted with 24 graduating veterinary students to examine (a) changes in their attitudes toward animals; (b) the types of experiences and procedures that they found personally distressing; (c) their perceptions of the most important ethical issues that they will face in private practice; and (d) their responses to euthanizing animals. Students’ responses differed considerably. For example, about half of the students claimed that they were not affected by euthanasia, but another 25% still were struggling with this aspect of their professional role. Rationalization was a common mechanism by which the students attempted to deal with stressful experiences. It …

Toxin Genotypes And Plasmid Profiles As Determinants Of Systemic Sequelae In Escherichia Coli 0157:H7 Infections, Stephen Ostroff, Phillip Tarr, Marguerite A. Neill, Jay H. Lewi, Nancy Hargrett-Bean, John M. Kobayashi

United States Public Health Resources

In 1987, 93 Escherichia coli 0157:H7 isolates were collected during routine surveillance for this pathogen in the state of Washington. Toxin genotypes and plasmid profiles were correlated with the clinical sequelae of illness in 88 of the 93 patients from whom these strains were isolated. Thirteen plasmid patterns were observed among the 88 tested isolates; four patterns accounted for 82(7o of the isolates. Genetic probing for Shiga-like toxins (SLT) I and II demonstrated the presence of both genes in 67 (76%), SLT I alone in three (3%), and SLT II alone in 18 (20%). The hemolytic uremic syndrome or throm-botic …
