Incubation Temperature during Fetal Development Influences Morphophysiological Characteristics and Preferred Ambient Temperature of Chicken Hatchlings
(Public Library Science, 2016-05-16)
Skin and feather characteristics, which play a critical role in body temperature maintenance, can be affected by incubation circumstances, such as incubation temperature. However, no study to date has assessed the influence ...
Engineering Thermoresponsive Polyether-Based Nanogels for Temperature Dependent Skin Penetration
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-06)
Highly biocompatible thermoresponsive nanogels (tNGs) based on oligo ethylene glycol (OEG) as thermoresponsive unit and dendritic polyglycerol (dPG) as cross-linker, were precisely engineered in terms of size and volume ...
Assessment of body surface temperature in cetaceans: an iterative approach
(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2014)
Objective evaluation of immediate reading skin prick test applying image planimetric and reaction thermometry analyses
(2020-12-01)
The skin prick test is used to diagnose patients' sensitization to antigens through a mediated IgE response. It is a practical and quick exam, but its diagnosis depends on instruments for measuring the allergic response ...
Can dermal delivery of therapeutics be improved using thermoresponsive nanogels?
(Future Medicine, 2019-11)
Skin, being the largest organ of the body, has attracted a lot of attention in recent years as a vector to deliver awide spectrum of cargo molecules to treat multiple conditions, including genetic disorders, infections by ...
Human Detection Using Thermopiles
(IEEE, 2008)
This paper presents a simple approach to detect people using an 8times1 thermopile array sensor. The performance of the sensor is evaluated in terms of detection rates and false positives obtained in the application of the ...
Nonthermal activation of transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 channels in abdominal viscera tonically inhibits autonomic cold-defense effectors
(2007-07-11)
An involvement of the transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) 1 channel in the regulation of body temperature (T b) has not been established decisively. To provide decisive evidence for such an involvement and determine ...
