AMINO ACID ANALYSIS IN THE SHORE CRAB CARCINUS MAENAS (DECAPODA: BRACHYURA)
(2010)Although amino acid flux models have been developed in fish and other crustaceans, this is the first study to present an amino acid flux model for crabs. This study investigates the influence of different feeds and the ... -
Changes in food intake and circulating leptin due to gastrointestinal parasitism in lambs of two breeds
(2008)HA reduction in food intake is a prominent feature of many infectious diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms of parasite-induced anorexia in sheep are poorly understood. Here, we tested the hypotheses (a) that the ... -
The effects of pathogen challenges on the performance of naive and immune animals: the problem of prediction
(2007)Predictive frameworks for performance under both physical and social stressors are available, but no general framework yet exists for predicting the performance of animals exposed to pathogens. The aim of this paper was ... -
In silico exploration of the mechanisms that underlie parasite-induced anorexia in sheep
(2011)A model was used to investigate two mechanisms describing reductions in food intake (anorexia) observed during gastrointestinal parasitism in lambs, and to explore relationships between anorexia and food composition. The ... -
Is anorexia during infection in animals affected by food composition?
(2010)A reduction in voluntary food intake, referred to as anorexia, is a consistent feature of infection in both humans and animals. Its Occurrence is considered a paradox and the magnitude and duration of anorexia appear to ...
