| mosquito blood-meal analysis for avian malaria study in wild bird communities: laboratory verification and application to culex sasai (diptera: culicidae) collected in tokyo, japan. | we conducted laboratory experiments to verify molecular techniques of avian malaria parasite detection distinguishing between an infected mosquito (oocysts on midgut wall) and infective mosquito (sporozoites in salivary glands) in parallel with blood-meal identification from individual blood-fed mosquitoes prior to application to field survey for avian malaria. domestic fowl infected with plasmodium gallinaceum was exposed to a vector and non-vector mosquito species, aedes aegypti and culex pipi ... | 2009 | 19629522 |
| geographical variations in the carbon isotope composition of the diet and hair in contemporary man. | geographic variations in the carbon isotope composition of the human diet and human hair were investigated. the carbon isotopic composition of common foodstuffs purchased in chicago, usa, tokyo, japan and munich, frg, were determined by combustion and differential isotope ratio mass spectrometry. the dietary protein carbon for the united states (-18.1%) was calculated to be enriched in 13c relative to the japanese (-21.2%) and the german (-23.6%) diets. to a large degree, the differences reflect ... | 1982 | 7139058 |

| japanese consumer categorisation of beef into quality grades, based on meat standards australia methodology. | the objective was to evaluate the sensory categorisation of beef by japanese consumers, based on meat standards australia methodology. various cuts of beef, with a wide range of quality (from australian and japanese cattle) and three cooking methods (grill, yakiniku, shabu shabu), were evaluated by 1620 japanese consumers in tokyo and osaka. consumers rated each sample for four sensory attributes (tenderness, juiciness, flavor and overall satisfaction), then selected one of four grades (unsatisf ... | 2011 | 21729214 |
| clinical experience with a new vascular graft free from biodegradable material. | triplex (terumo co., tokyo, japan), a newly developed large diameter vascular graft sealed with a non-biodegradable material, is expected to reduce inflammatory reaction. we confirmed its safe implantation and assessed inflammatory reaction after thoracic aortic surgery. between january 2009 and february 2010, 101 consecutive patients underwent thoracic aortic replacement. triplex grafts were implanted in 40 patients, and bovine-collagen coated grafts (hemashield, boston scientific, boston, ma, ... | 2011 | 21339341 |
| prevalence of listeria monocytogenes in retailed meat in the tokyo metropolitan area. | this study was conducted to determine the prevalence of listeria monocytogenes in retailed meats, comprising beef, chicken, and pork, in the tokyo metropolitan area. a total of 379 samples of retailed meat were collected from 1998 to 2003, most of which were obtained by simultaneously purchasing the three classes of meat from a shop and then making another simultaneous purchase of meat from the same shop a few weeks later. the prevalence of l. monocytogenes was 28.0%, and the serotypes isolated ... | 2010 | 20828477 |
| molecular detection of kobuvirus sequences in stool samples collected from healthy pigs in japan. | this study reports the detection and genetic characterization of porcine kobuvirus, a new member of the genus kobuvirus in the family picornaviridae. among 293 fecal specimens collected from healthy pigs in 2009, in japan, 133 (45.4%) were positive for kobuvirus using rt-pcr screening method. of the positive specimens, 124 were obtained from pigs < or =6 months old, while 9 samples were from pigs >6 months old. fifty-two representative strains of kobuviruses detected in this study were randomly ... | 2010 | 20547246 |
| the input-output balance of cadmium in a paddy field of tokyo. | field monitoring was practiced from 2001 to 2003 to evaluate the input (irrigation, atmospheric deposition, and fertilizer application) and the output (uptake and accumulation into the above-ground biomass of rice plants and leaching) of cadmium (cd) in a contaminated paddy field in tokyo. the cadmium concentrations of irrigated water, open-bulk precipitation, soil solution (leaching water), rice plants collected at the harvesting stage and the chemical fertilizer and the cow manure compost appl ... | 2007 | 17207840 |
