Effect of flight transport stress on blood parameters in beagles and the anti-stress effect of dangshen.

Background: This study investigated the effect of flight transport stress on beagles' routine blood indexes and biochemical parameters and evaluated the anti-stress effect of dangshen ().

Methods: We selected 12 beagles and divided them into two groups. One group was treated with dangshen decoction two hours before the flight, and the other group was untreated.

[Effect of salicylic acid on the growth and physiological performance of Ulva prolifera].

In order to study the effects of salicylic acid on the growth and physiological performance of Ulva prolifera with different proliferative styles, we took U. prolifera from vegetative (VU) and spore proliferative cells (SU) as materials, and cultured them under different salicylic acid concentrations to investigate their growth rate, chlorophyll fluorescence, SOD and soluble protein content. The results showed that the growth of both VU and SU was promoted by low concentration of salicy-lic acid, especially for VU.
