To determine the existence of an acid stress response in Helicobacter pylori the global changes in the proteins synthesized by the bacterium when subjected to an acid stress were studied. H. pylori ATCC43504 previously ...

This study investigated the influence of cueing on the performance of untrained and trained complex motor responses. Healthy adults responded to a visual target by performing four sequential movements (complex response) ...

The alarm response to skin extract has been well documented in fish. In response to skin extract, there is a decline in both locomotion activity and aggressive interactions. Our observation herein of these responses in the ...

Impulse response functions (IRFs) and frequency response functions (FRFs) are fundamental quantities that describe the dynamic behaviour of a linear vibrating system in the time and frequency domains respectively. The ...

Dose-response relations can be obtained from systems at any structural level of biological matter, fromthe molecular to the organismic level. There are two types of approaches for analyzing dose-responsecurves: a deterministic ...

One way to understand the behavioural patterns exhibited by a predator in response to prey density is to evaluate its functional response. Such evaluation yields information about basic mechanisms of prey-predator dynamics, ...

The acute phase response (APR) is the first line of defense of the vertebrate immune system against pathogens. Mounting an immune response is believed to be energetically costly but direct measures of metabolic rate during ...
