ABSTRACT The production of an ant-deterrent factor(s) (ADF) by Xenorhabdus nematophila and Photorhabdus luminescens , the symbiotic bacteria nematodes Steinernema carpocapsae Heterorhabditis bacteriophora respectively, was examined. In addition to in vivo assay which were tested for their ability produce ADF within insect cadavers (M.E. Baur, H. K. Kaya, D. R. Strong, Biol. Control 12:231-236, 1998), vitro microtiter dish developed monitor activity produced grown cultures. Using these...
Surgeons, including veterinary surgeons, are exposed to many ergonomic challenges due their work settings. The prolonged, sustained neck flexion necessary during surgeries can lead muscle fatigue and discomfort, potentially causing musculoskeletal disorders. Our research explored the use of a passive exoskeleton provide support for forward head posture (FHP) live in field. findings indicate that FHP reduce symptoms among surgeons. Further studies, though, needed continue generating...
