Chronoethological assessment of well-being and husbandry in captive koalas, Phascolarctos cinereus, Goldfuss 1817 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Koalas are popular zoo animals, but difficult in husbandry. In addition to their specialised diet of eucalyptus leaves, they are prone to “stress” and disease. Particularly in European zoos, themonitoring of theirwell-being has high priority and they are

TESCLA: A Fully Soft Electromagnetic Linear Actuator With Continuous Bending Enabled by Liquid‐Metal Solenoids

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
TESCLA (tubular electromagnetic soft conformal linear actuator) combines liquid‐metal solenoids and compliant magnetic composites to achieve large‐stroke bidirectional actuation with continuous bending. Integrated inductance‐based self‐sensing enables proprioceptive position estimation without external sensors, providing a versatile platform for soft ...

What does not kill it makes it weaker: effects of sub-lethal concentrations of ivermectin on the locomotor activity of Anopheles aquasalis

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Malaria remains a major public health concern. Vector control measures based solely on insecticide treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) have demonstrated not to be feasible for malaria elimination.

Multiple Screening of Pesticides Toxicity in Zebrafish and Daphnia Based on Locomotor Activity Alterations

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Pesticides are widely used to eradicate insects, weed species, and fungi in agriculture. The half-lives of some pesticides are relatively long and may have the dire potential to induce adverse effects when released into the soil, terrestrial and aquatic ...

Stocking density affects circadian rhythms of locomotor activity in african catfish, clarias gariepinus

open access: yes, 2011
The effect of stocking density on the locomotor activity of African catfish C. gariepinus under different light regimes was investigated. C. gariepinus were stocked under different densities (1, 5, or 10 fish/tank), and their locomotor activity recorded ...

Artificial Intelligence Meets Micro/Nanorobotics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence is transforming micro‐ and nanorobots from externally controlled, task‐specific machines into adaptive, autonomous systems. Machine learning, multimodal perception, digital twins, AI‐guided materials and geometry design enhance propulsion, localization, decision‐making, whichaccelerates clinical and environmental applications ...

Locomotor activity.

open access: yes, 2019
Bar charts (mean±SEM) represent (A) maximum rotation speed and (B) time spent on the apparatus. There were no statistically significant differences between groups and the NASH group did not show impaired locomotor activity.

Effects of oleoylethanolamide (OEA) on food intake and locomotor activity in goldfish (Carassius auratus)

open access: yes, 2014
Energy homeostasis in vertebrates is regulated by neuroendocrine systems by adjusting caloric intake to energy expenditure. Oleoylethanolamide (OEA), an endogenous lipid synthesized in the intestine, plays a significant role in the regulation of energy ...
