The trophi, or mouthparts of a locust, a typical chewing insect: 1 Labrum. 2 Mandibles; 3 Maxillae. 4 Labium. 5 Hypopharynx. Examples of chewing insects include dragonflies, grasshoppers and beetles. Some insects do not have chewing mouthparts as adults but chew solid food in their larval phase.
Used to automate the DNA sequencing process. Genetics, Molecular biology. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) Used to detect the presence of a ligand (commonly a protein) in a liquid sample using antibodies directed against the protein to be measure. Biochemistry, Molecular biology. Gene knockout.
A pair of horns on a male impala. Anatomy of an animal's horn. A horn is a permanent pointed projection on the head of various animals that consists of a covering of keratin and other proteins surrounding a core of live bone. Horns are distinct from antlers, which are not permanent. In mammals, true horns are found mainly among the ruminant ...
Bioacoustics is a cross-disciplinary science that combines biology and acoustics. Usually it refers to the investigation of sound production, dispersion and reception in animals (including humans). [1] This involves neurophysiological and anatomical basis of sound production and detection, and relation of acoustic signals to the medium they ...
Biotechnology is a multidisciplinary field that involves the integration of natural sciences and engineering sciences in order to achieve the application of organisms and parts thereof for products and services. [1] The term biotechnology was first used by Károly Ereky in 1919 [2] to refer to the production of products from raw materials with ...
Conservator examines a Chinese vessel. Conservation-restoration of bone, horn, and antler objects involves the processes by which the deterioration of objects either containing or made from bone, horn, and antler is contained and prevented. Their use has been documented throughout history in many societal groups as these materials are durable ...
Sonication. Sonication is the act of applying sound energy to agitate particles in a sample, for various purposes such as the extraction of multiple compounds from plants, microalgae and seaweeds. [1] Ultrasonic frequencies (> 20 kHz) are usually used, leading to the process also being known as ultrasonication or ultra-sonication.
