Formerly mosquito blood-meals were identified mostly by the interfacial precipitin (ring) test (described in Chapter 12), and it is sometimes still used (Alencar et al. 2005; Anderson and Gallaway 1988; Andrade and Lorosa 1998; Irby and Apperson 1988; la Grange and Coetzee 1997; Pates et...
However, PFOCs are liquid at room temperature and can dissolve 40 to 70% of oxygen; therefore, their oxygen-carrying capacity is approximately three times greater than that of conventional blood. As PFOCs themselves are not smoothly dissolved in the blood, they are manufactured and used in an ...
CircRNAs are derived from pre-mRNAs and formed by back-splicing, in which a downstream 5-prime splice site (ss) is covalently joined with an upstream 3-prime ss (Fig.1) (Li et al.,2018d). There are three major types of circRNAs, exonic circRNAs (ecircRNAs), exon-intron circRNAs (EI...
