Organes du corps et dispositifs de la forge chez les Moose du Burkina Faso by Lidia Calderoli

“…A local description of causes, symptoms and treatment brings out a network of analogies that link the human body to the bellows nozzle and to iron work.These analogies fit coherently into an ideology explained by the smiths, concerning their role as tool producers and guarantors of agricultural work. The bellows nozzle and its associated illness therefore become material devices that, through non-arbitrary signs and physical effects, recall the forgotten link between the powers connected with forging and men, and by the same token, the links between smiths and non-smiths. …”

The relationship between deltamethrin-induced behavioral changes and acetylcholinesterase activity in zebrafish embryos or larvae based on transcriptome by Chunyu Liu, Yantong Guo, Xue Zhang, Hongsong Chen, Maomao Han, Han Wang, Jieyao Niu, Jinfei He, Jingfeng Yang, Wu Dong, Jiangdong Xue

“…BackgroundDeltamethrin (DM) is a broad-spectrum insecticide that is widely used to control agricultural pests. Recently, DM has posed a potential threat to the health of infants and young children, and this is because of the environmental and food pollution that is caused by the extensive use of DM.MethodsIn this study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos were used as experimental animals to quantify the behavioral changes of larvae induced by DM and explore the relationship between DM and acetylcholinesterase activity.ResultsThe results showed that DM caused an increase in coiling movement, heart rate, and apoptosis in the brain in early zebrafish embryos or larvae. …”
