Book Monitoring Low Temperature Physiology in Hibernating Mammals

Download or read book Monitoring Low Temperature Physiology in Hibernating Mammals written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have successfully identified genes controlling the physiological characteristics of hibernation in the thirteen-lined ground squirrel (Spermophilus tridecemlineatus). Identification of these specific genetic markers has allowed us to study the function of their gene products under highly controlled conditions of temperature, light and humidity. To accomplish this goal specific instrumentation was purchased with this DURIP grant. Measurements of low-temperature physiology in hibernating mammals under controlled conditions required an environmental chamber that allows us to maintain a variety of ambient temperatures ranging from -5 to 20 deg C. The response and adaptation of our ground squirrel species to environmental change has been monitored by precisely measuring activity, core body temperature and heart rate using miniature, battery-free, inplantable transmitters that allow uninterrupted lifetime studies. Tissues collected from these animals were quick-frozen in liquid N2 and placed in a -86 deg C freezer where they are stored until we analyze patterns of gene expression controlling the physiological characteristics of hibernation in mammals.

  • Author : Don Bradshaw
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2003-04-24
  • ISBN : 9780521521093
  • Pages : 308 pages

Download or read book Vertebrate Ecophysiology written by Don Bradshaw and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-04-24 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecophysiology attempts to clarify the role and importance of physiological processes, such as digestion and respiration, in the ecological relations of species in their natural habitats. The basic principles and methods that are central to any ecophysiological study are outlined and discussed, including animal capture, blood collection, and the measurement of plasma components and hormone levels. Attention is paid to animal welfare and ethical considerations, and the question of stress and how to identify its presence in animals in their natural environment is approached through a series of case studies. Examples are given from a wide range of vertebrates living in deserts, cold climates and oceans, and recent findings on the physiological adaptations of Antarctic birds and mammals are a highlight of the book. This textbook will provide an introduction to the study of ecophysiology for advanced undergraduates and postgraduate students, as well as researchers in ecology, biodiversity and conservation.
