preliminary observations of the effect of methamphetamine in decomposing tissues on the development rate of parasarcophaga ruficornis (diptera: sarcophagidae) and implications of this effect on the estimations of postmortem intervals. | larvae of parasarcophaga ruficornis (fabricius) (diptera: sarcophagidae) were reared on tissues from rabbits administered different dosages of methamphetamine to study the effects of this drug on development of this species. the rabbits were given 37.5, 71.4, and 142.9 mg of methamphetamine via ear vein infusion. from hours 30 to 60, larvae feeding on tissues from rabbits receiving 71.4 and 142.9 mg of methamphetamine developed more rapidly than larvae from the control colony and those feeding o ... | 1992 | 1629680 |
preparation of high-titred antisera for sigma virus strains from hawaii and france and their use in neutralization tests in vitro and in vivo. | antisera were prepared in rabbits against two strains of sigma virus, from france and hawaii respectively, using purified virus from cell cultures. all antisera had the same titre by immunofluorescence, 1/400 or 1/800, whether tested against the homologous or the heterologous virus. an antiserum prepared with the french strain neutralized the hawaiian virus at a dilution of 1/800 both in vitro and in vivo. the hawaiian virus was not neutralized to a significant extent by reference mouse ascitic ... | 1988 | 3144993 |

diversity of marine biotoxins in the near-shore ocean area: presence of a palytoxin-like entity at barber's point harbor, oahu. | the presence of palytoxin or palytoxin-like compounds in fish extracts has been presented in this study. the hemolytic assay with sheep erythrocytes demonstrated the occurrence of hemolytic factors in fish extracts of hawaiian reef fish from barber's point, oahu. the rabbit anti-palytoxin inhibition assay with fish extracts and sheep erythrocytes demonstrated that palytoxin or its congener contributed to the lysis of sheep erythrocytes. from these results, it was concluded that sheep erythrocyte ... | 2001 | 11695821 |
tularemia--united states, 1990-2000. | tularemia is a zoonotic disease caused by the gram-negative coccobacillus francisella tularensis. known also as "rabbit fever" and "deer fly fever," tularemia was first described in the united states in 1911 and has been reported from all states except hawaii. tularemia was removed from the list of nationally notifiable diseases in 1994, but increased concern about potential use of f. tularensis as a biological weapon led to its reinstatement in 2000. this report summarizes tularemia cases repor ... | 2002 | 11900351 |

toxoplasmosis in a hawaiian monk seal (monachus schauinslandi). | toxoplasma gondii infection in marine mammals is intriguing and indicative of contamination of the ocean environment with oocysts. t. gondii was identified in a hawaiian monk seal (monachus schauinslandi) that had visceral and cerebral lesions. tachyzoites were found in the lymph nodes, spleen, diaphragm, heart, adrenal glands, and brain. a few tissue cysts were found in sections of the cerebrum. the diagnosis was confirmed serologically, by immunohistochemical staining with t. gondii-specific p ... | 2005 | 16108571 |
