Early life adoption shows rearing environment supersedes transgenerational effects of paternal stress on aggressive temperament in the offspring

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Guillaume Poirier, Sonakshi Gupta

Prenatal experience and transgenerational influences are increasingly recognized as critical for defining the socio-emotional system, through the development of social competences and of their underlying neural circuitries. Here, we used an established rat ...

Towards Agility: Definition, Benchmark and Design Considerations for Small, Quadrupedal Robots

Peter Eckert

Agile quadrupedal locomotion in animals and robots is yet to be fully understood, quantified or achieved. An intuitive notion of agility exists, but neither a concise definition nor a common benchmark can be found. Further, it is unclear, what minimal leve ...

Brain metabolic alterations in mice subjected to postnatal traumatic stress and in their offspring

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Alberto Corcoba

Adverse environmental and social conditions early in life have a strong impact on health. They are major risk factors for mental diseases in adulthood and, in some cases, their effects can be transmitted across generations. The consequences of detrimental ...

Kinetic assessment and modeling of an ozonation step for full-scale municipal wastewater treatment: Micropollutant oxidation, by-product formation and disinfection

Urs von Gunten, Juliane Hollender, Hansruedi Siegrist

The kinetics of oxidation and disinfection processes during ozonation in a full-scale reactor treating secondary wastewater effluent were investigated for seven ozone doses ranging from 0.21 to 1.24 g O-3 g(-1) dissolved organic carbon (DOG). Substances re ...

Is There a Size Limit for Cosmopolitan Distribution in Free-Living Microorganisms? A Biogeographical Analysis of Testate Amoebae from Polar Areas

Jiangyan Yang

A long-standing debate in microbial ecology is the extent to which free-living microorganisms exhibit cosmopolitan distributions. We use a comparison of testate amoebae communities in cold "polar" locations (Arctic, Antarctic, and Tibet) to investigate how ...

Pulse pressure method and the area method for the estimation of total arterial compliance in dogs: sensitivity to wave reflection intensity

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers

We estimated total arterial compliance (C) in eight anesthetized mongrel dogs with (i) the area method (AM), (ii) the pulse pressure method (PPM), and (iii) the stroke volume-to-pulse pressure ratio (SV/PP). Average compliance was C(AM)=1.1+/-0.73 ml mm Hg ...
