ANALYSIS OF OIL DISTRIBUTION AND REDUCTION OF AXIAL FORCE DUE TO OIL SUPPLY IN A MULTI-PLATE CLUTCH


Use of plumage and gular pouch color to evaluate condition of oil spill rehabilitated California brown pelicans (Pelecanus occidentalis californicus) post-release.

Sublethal effects of oil spills may dampen seabird rehabilitation success due to lingering negative impacts of contamination and Fern stress on reproduction and long-term survival.These effects can be difficult to measure while birds are in care as well as once birds are released.Expression of sexually selected traits that are sensitive to conditio

Modeling the efficiency of filovirus entry into cells in vitro: Effects of SNP mutations in the receptor molecule.

Interaction between filovirus glycoprotein (GP) and the Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) protein return is essential for membrane fusion during virus entry.Some single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) in two surface-exposed loops of NPC1 are known to reduce viral infectivity.However, the dependence of differences in entry efficiency on SNPs remains unclear.Usi
