Zebrafish are becoming one of the most used vertebrates in developmental Liquid Foundation and biomedical research.Fish are commonly killed at the end of an experiment with an overdose of tricaine methanesulfonate (TMS, also known as MS-222), but to date little research has assessed if exposure to this or other agents qualifies as euthanasia (i.e.a
Herein, the effects of Si content on the microstructure evolution of Al-Mg-Si alloys during twin-roll casting (TRC) and subsequent heat treatment were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, emission electron probe micro analysis, electron backscatter diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy.The effects of insoluble Si particles,
Scavenging and predatory wildlife can ingest lead (Pb) from lead-based ammunition and become poisoned when feeding on shot game animals.Humans can similarly be exposed to ammunition-derived lead when consuming wild-shot game animals.Studies have assessed the degree of lead contamination in the carcasses of game animals but this scrutiny has not so
Calving of icebergs is a major negative component of polar ice-sheet mass balance.Here we present a new calving model relying on both continuum damage mechanics and linear elastic fracture mechanics.This combination accounts for both the slow sub-critical surface crevassing and the rapid propagation of crevasses when calving occurs.First, damage to
