ADAPTATIONS IN SCALE INSECTS

Annual Review of Entomology, 1997
▪ Abstract  Many unusual features of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) can be explained as historical legacy. Developmental specializations in ancestral coccoids resulted in a neotenous adult female and a drastic metamorphosis of the male. Subsequent evolution led to numerous, often convergently derived, adaptations to parasitic life on higher ...

Agile and Resilient Insect-Scale Robot

Soft Robotics, 2019
A key challenge in bioinspired insect-scale running robots is to make them both agile and resilient. In this study, we develop a dielectric elastomer actuated soft robot that mimics inchworms. We use an elastomer to make the soft body, a stretchable dielectric to provide electrostatic actuation of high power density, and multizone actuation to achieve ...

Large-scale insect cell culture

Current Biology, 1992
Significant advances have been made over the past year in our understanding of the protective mechanisms, both fluid-mechanical and biological, of media additives on suspended animal cells. The degree of protection offered by different additives, such as pluronic polyol, appears to be cell-type dependent, varying quite dramatically not only between ...

Production scale insect cell culture

Biotechnology Advances, 1991
Insect cells in culture are currently commanding great interest as superior hosts for the efficient production of biologicals with applications in health care and in agriculture. Insect cell culture is ripe for scale-up technologies, in order to meet future projected production requirements of (a) insect viruses used as bioinsecticides and (b ...

Large-Scale Propagation of Insect Cells

2018
Cultured insect cells have many uses in agriculture and medicine. They can be used in the diagnosis and isolation of a number of viruses infecting both animals and plants and for the laboratory study of these viruses. Large-volume culture of insect cells has been envisioned as a way of producing viruses for use in controlling insect pests and for the ...
