This paper presents the first report of a mammalian internal organ with a lower temperature than its abdominal surrounds. Heterocephalus glaber, the naked mole-rat, is a poikilothermic mammal that leads a strictly subterranean existence and consumes a high proportion of fibre in its diet. The fermen

A kinetic model of solid state fermentation with temperature deactivation of microorganisms is presented. The experimental results of cultivation of Aspergillus niger on a mixture of wheat bran and beet pulp in temperature range from 26 ~ to 40 ~ were used to estimate the parameters of the model. Th
In this study, we investigated the validity of the fluorescent probe fura-2 in determinations of intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)), at physiological temperatures, in poikilothermic animals living at low temperatures. The K(d) for fura-2 was found to decrease with increasing temperatu
