The aim of the work is to study the nature of the distribution of 2-A-4.6-DNP in the organisms of warm-blooded animals with intragastric administration of a toxicant. The study was carried out using the methods of TLC, UV-Visible spectroscopy, and GC-MS using derivatives of 2-A-4.6-DNP. Male Wistar rats at the age of 4 months were considered as a model of the body of a warm-blooded animal. An oily suspension of 2-A-4.6-DNF was administered intragastrically in an amount of three times the LD. Extraction of the target substance from the biomaterial was carried out by double infusion (30 minutes each) with a mixture of acetone-acetonitrile (1:1), the amount of the mixture exceeded the weight of the biomaterial by 2 times. Extractions were purified by TLC method using «Sorbfil» plates and acetone-chloroform (7: 3) mobile phase. Preliminary identification was carried out at the same time using a standard substance. Confirmatory identification was carried out by the absorption of dimethylformamide eluates in «SF-2000», as well as by the retention time and mass spectra of the major compound of the corresponding chromatographic peaks after GC-MS analysis. The quantitative content was determined spectrophotometrically, in DMF, by optical density at the analytical wavelength (490 nm). 2-Amino-4.6-dinitrophenol was found unchanged in the blood and in all the studied hollow and parenchymal organs of poisoned rats. The largest amount of 2-amino-4.6-dinitrophenol (mg/100 g) was found in the stomach walls (199.39±25.43) and stomach contents (143.14±22.63), a significant amount of the substance was found in the heart (33.49±3.66), skeletal muscles (30.70±2.64), as well as in the spleen (24.30±1.96).

is a ubiquitous zoonotic parasite with a wide range of warm-blooded animals as intermediate hosts, where the transmission primarily occurs through ingesting oocysts in the environment. Hence, animals inhabiting a wide geographical range can be sentinels for the environmental contamination of oocysts. The aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of in two generalist ungulates in the Republic of Korea (ROK), wild boar () and Korean water deer (), and identify the risk factors associated with this infection.

The body temperature of Warm-blooded hosts impedes and informs responses of bacteria accustomed to cooler environments. The second messenger c-di-GMP modulates bacterial behavior in response to diverse, yet largely undiscovered, stimuli. A long-standing debate persists regarding whether a local or a global c-di-GMP pool plays a critical role.

A fundamental question in dinosaur evolution is how they adapted to long-term climatic shifts during the Mesozoic and when they developed environmentally independent, avian-style acclimatization, becoming endothermic. The ability of warm-blooded dinosaurs to flourish in harsher environments, including cold, high-latitude regions, raises intriguing questions about the origins of key innovations shared with modern birds, indicating that the development of homeothermy (keeping constant body temperature) and endothermy (generating body heat) played a crucial role in their ecological diversification. Despite substantial evidence across scientific disciplines (anatomy, reproduction, energetics, biomechanics, osteohistology, palaeobiogeography, geochemistry, and soft tissues), a consensus on dinosaur thermophysiology remains elusive.
