Remating behaviour in Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) females is affected by male juvenile hormone analog treatment but not by male sterilization
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-01)
The sterile insect technique (SIT) has been proposed as an area-wide method to control the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann). This technique requires sterilization, a procedure that affects, along ...
Influence of bovine serum albumin and fetal bovine serum supplementation during in vitro maturation on lipid and mitochondrial behaviour in oocytes and lipid accumulation in bovine embryos
(2016-01-01)
Proper oocyte maturation is crucial for subsequent embryo development; however, oocyte mitochondrial and lipid-droplet behaviour are still poorly understood. Although excessive lipid accumulation during in vitro production ...
Differential risk perception of rural and urban Burrowing Owls exposed to humans and dogs
(Elsevier Science, 2016-03)
Urban areas expose wildlife to an array of novel predators, amongst which, humans and dogs are highly frequent. Thus, wild animals living in urban areas are forced to invest more time and energy in defence behaviours, which ...
Effects of different doses of sodium monensin on feeding behaviour, dry matter intake variation and selective consumption of feedlot Nellore cattle
(Csiro Publishing, 2015-01-01)
The experiment was designed to determine the effects of different doses of sodium monensin (MON) on feeding behaviour, dry matter intake (DMI) variation and selective consumption of feedlot Nellore cattle. The experiment ...
Analysis of the behaviour of oil spills in a sector of the Magdalena river (Colombia)
(2017-01-01)
In 2005, it was estimated that over 70% of oil spills in Colombia affected riverine areas. The Magdalena River is the longest navigable river in the country. It is home to countless species of flora and fauna, and provides ...
Hydrogen production by glycerol steam reforming: How Mg doping affects the catalytic behaviour of Ni/Al2O3 catalysts
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-01)
Glycerol steam reforming, using Mg doped Ni/Al2O3 catalysts, was investigated with the aim to efficiently produce hydrogen. Catalyst containing different Mg loading were prepared by impregnation method maintaining constant ...
Sorptional behaviour of rosehip leather formulations added with sucrose or polydextrose
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2014-06)
The sorptional behaviour of two formulations intended to develop rosehip leathers, both based on rosehip fruit pulp, was assessed experimentally. One formulation had sucrose added, while polydextrose was added to the other ...
