ENDOPARASITE INFECTION HAS BOTH SHORT- AND LONG-TERM NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS OF FEMALE HOUSE SPARROWS, AS REVEALED BY FAECAL PARASITIC EGG COUNTS.

Endoparasite infection has both short- and long-term negative effects on reproductive success of female house sparrows, as revealed by faecal parasitic egg counts.

Parasites have the potential to severely reduce host reproductive success.However, the effects of endoparasites on reproductive success have not received the same amount of attention as the effects of parasites on host survival.We investigated the relationship between an avian endoparasite (gapeworm, Syngamus trachea) and both current and future JO

Electrochemical Investigation of Aerobic Biocathodes at Different Poised Potentials: Evidence for Mediated Extracellular Electron Transfer

Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) are a promising new technology for the conversion of organic wastes to electrical energy.They work by oxidising organics at the anode using bacteria, and combining this with the Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) at the cathode.Pt and other chemical catalysts have been used at the cathode in MFCs.However, their high cost an
