  • * A study in New York's Adirondack region showed that surface temperatures are rising much faster and bottom dissolved oxygen is depleting significantly faster than average, negatively impacting the habitat for brook trout.
  • * Most lakes studied have experienced either a seasonal loss or severe restriction of suitable habitats for trout, indicating that the combination of warming and browning could endanger cold-water fisheries and highlight the need for effective management strategies.

A larval holding chamber was designed to evaluate the movement of a new formulation of a mosquito larvicide. The chamber confines the mosquito larvae to a specific area and allows the larvicide to travel to them. After a 30-h test period, the larvicide being tested had killed all the larvae in the experimental chambers, whereas larvae confined in control chambers were not affected.

A pokeweed mitogen-stimulated IgG synthesis assay was used to evaluate T suppressor cell function in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) obtained from multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Autochthonous cultures of fractionated and recombined MS B and T cells exhibited less suppression of IgG synthesis than similar cultures of PBL from control subjects. No difference occurred in the levels of suppression among MS patients grouped according to disease states.
