… The repeated measures of ANOVA for between subjects effects revealed a statistically
significant effect of dose on salivary BPA levels (F=11.12, p=<.0001) (Table III). A post–hoc test (…

… The presence of low anity IgE receptors (CD23) and high affinity FcdU on platelets provides
two pathways for Ag-specific activation of platelets to lead to the release of 5-HT and other …

Both soluble and cell-mediated components are involved in the innate immune response of
arthropods. Injection of Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme disease agent, results in the secretion …

We examined the histopathological and hematological response of the Caribbean spiny
lobster to experimentally induced infections with Panulirus argus Virus 1 (PaV1). The fixed …

… The reactions were run on an MJ Research thermal cycler (Bio-Rad Laboratories). The am…
cloned from purified virus in a related PaV1 project (RE Ratzlaff unpubl. data). The PCR assay …

In Virginia, Borrelia burgdorferi was more prevalent in a site along the Atlantic Ocean, near
Maryland, than in an inland site near Williamsburg and Yorktown. At the coastal site on …

Panulirus argus Virus 1 (PaV1) is the first virus known to be pathogenic to a wild lobster. It
infects the Caribbean spiny lobster P. argus from the Florida Keys, and has a predilection for …

The choice of the type of instrument to measure delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in mice,
as assayed by ear swelling reactions, influences the experimental results. When a caliper …

Finding contact sensitivity (CS) responses that were fairly normal in ear swelling, and in
serotonin (5-HT) dependence in mast-cell-deficient mice, led to experiments to determine …

… Therefore, we re-examined anamnestic resistance on naive sites and determined if hosts …
