Novel Insights Into Immune Systems of Bats
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 In recent years, viruses similar to those that cause serious disease in humans and other mammals have been detected in apparently healthy bats. These include filoviruses, paramyxoviruses, and coronaviruses that cause severe diseases such as Ebola virus ...

Do We Need to Use Bats as Bioindicators?
Biology, 2021 Simple Summary Bioindicators are organisms that react to the quality or characteristics of the environment and their changes. They are vitally important to track environmental alterations and take action to mitigate them.

Response to Frequency Shifted Artificial Echoes in the Bat Rhinolophus ferrumequinum [PDF]
, 1974 In 5 roosting bats the resting frequency, that is the mean frequency of the cf-portion of consecutive sounds, is kept constant with a standard deviation which varies between 30 120 Hz in different bats and at different days. In 15 bats the emitted sounds

Microbiology Australia, 2017 While Reston and Lloviu viruses have never been associated with human disease, the other filoviruses cause outbreaks of hemorrhagic fever characterised by person-to-person transmission and high case fatality ratios. Cumulative evidence suggests that bats are the most likely reservoir hosts of the filoviruses. Ecological investigations following Marburg

Serological evidence of arenavirus circulation among fruit bats in Trinidad. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Tacaribe virus (TCRV) was isolated in the 1950s from artibeus bats captured on the island of Trinidad. The initial characterization of TCRV suggested that artibeus bats were natural reservoir hosts.

The electron density distribution in CN−, LiCN and LiNC. The use of minimal and extended basis set SCF calculations [PDF]
, 1977 Electron density maps are reported for the CN−ion and the LiCN and LiNC molecules, calculated from molecular wave-functions near the Hartree-Fock limit. The electron density distribution derived from CNDO/ 2 wavefunctions does not resemble the ab initio ...

Current Biology, 2015 (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Bats are unique among extant flying animals, as they have compliant wings and an echolocation sensory system that distinguish them from birds and insects. Flying in the dark, guided by echolocation, has influenced the aerodynamics of bat flight perhaps more than previously realized and resulted in a ...

Hemotropic mycoplasmas in little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus). [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundHemotropic mycoplasmas are epicellular erythrocytic bacteria that can cause infectious anemia in some mammalian species. Worldwide, hemotropic mycoplasmas are emerging or re-emerging zoonotic pathogens potentially causing serious and ...
