Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Vivisection and experimentation debate - The debate on animal testing

In 1822, in the British parliament, Richard Martin MP piloted the first parliamentary bill in the world to give animals a degree of protection through the law. This first bill related to farm animals. The first to regulate animal experimentation in Britain was the Cruelty to Animals Act (1876). One of the people who campaigned to see the bill introduced was Charles Darwin (1809-1882). He said, in a letter of March 22, 1871 to Professor Ray Lankester: "You ask about my opinion on vivisection. I quite agree that it is justifiable for real inve ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Vivisection and experimentation debate - Scientific issues

The main science-based issues raised against animal experimentation are: That the animal body differs in so many respects from that of the human that cutting the tissue (in vivisection) of the living animal will reveal nothing about human health or illness. That the animal body differs in many other respects such that administering drugs, poisons, and diseases will lead to similarly irrelevant results. For instance, increasing (or decreasing) the dosage in order to compensate for a different body size can generate artif ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Vivisection and experimentation debate - Moral issues

The main issues raised of an ethical nature against animal experimentation are: That it is considered by many to be cruel to inflict harm on an otherwise healthy animal. That it is considered by many within religious philosophies to be a deminishment of the human soul to perpetrate harm. That it is thought by some humanistic viewpoints that committing acts of harm to an animal will cause a psychological callousness to result from the habitual tolerance of harm infliction. That this psychological callousness may ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Experimental cancer treatment - Telomerase therapy

Because most malignant cells rely on the activity of the protein telomerase for their immortality, it has been proposed that a drug which inactivates telomerase might be effective against a broad spectrum of malignancies. At the same time, most healthy tissues in the body express little if any telomerase, and would function normally in its absence. A number of research groups have experimented with the use of telomerase inhibitors in animal model ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Experimental cancer treatment - Thermal therapy

Localized application of heat has been proprosed as a technique for the treatment of malignant tumours. Intense heating will cause denaturation and coagulation of cellular proteins, rapidly killing cells within a tumour. More prolonged moderate heating to temperatures just a few degrees above normal can cause more subtle changes. A mild heat treatment combined with other stresses can cause cell death by apoptosis. There are many biochemical consequences to the heat shock response within in cell, including slowed cell ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Experimental cancer treatment - Complementary and alternative cancer treatment

See main article: Complementary and alternative medicine In the year 2000, the American Cancer Society published American Cancer Society's Guide to Complementary and Alternative Cancer Methods. There are over 200 substances and therapies in this book, and while there is a varying degree of success with each of the methods, it appears that some of the techniques will work at times, however no technique will work in all situations, which, practitioners claim, is similar to the success rate of conventional techniques. Many ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest - History

The idea for such a unique outdoor resource crystallized in the minds of Professor Herbert Bormann of Dartmouth College, who began taking his botany classes for field trips to this area of the White Mountains National Forest in the early 1950s, and Forest Service scientist Robert Pierce. Bormann proposed to Pierce that the Forest Service set aside an area dedicated to closed-system ecological studies, and in 1955 the first such tract was dedicated, in the Hubbard Brook watersh ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest - Hubbard Brook ecosystem

Located in the White Mountain National Forest in central New Hampshire, the 31 km² bowl-shaped forested valley has hilly terrain, ranging from 222 to 1,015 m in altitude. The Forest comprises nine individual watersheds, each of which drains into Hubbard Brook, and then through Mirror Lake, before emptying into the Pemigewasset River near Campton, New Hampshire. The Forest is mostly a "second-growth" mix of northern hardwoods (80 to 90%) and red spruce-balsam fir (10 to 20%). Beech, yellow birch, and sugar maple experience their great ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Experimental Breeder Reactor II - Design

The fuel consists of uranium rods 5 millimeters in diameter and 13 inches long. Enriched to 67% uranium-235 when fresh it was approximately 65% on removal. It also contains 10% zirconium. Each fuel element is inserted into a thin-walled stainless steel tube and a small amount of sodium metal is also put in. The tube is welded shut at the top to form a unit 29 inches long. The purpose of the sodium is to function as a heat-transfer agent. As more and more of the uranium undergoes fission, it develops fissures and the sodium enters the voids. ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Experimental Breeder Reactor II - Safety advandage

The IFR design gains safety advantages through a combination of metal fuel (an alloy of uranium, plutonium, and zirconium), and sodium cooling. By providing a fuel which readily conducts heat from the fuel to the coolant, and which operates at relatively low temperatures, the IFR takes maximum advantage of expansion of the coolant, fuel, and structure during off-normal events which increase temperatures. The expansion of the fuel and structure in an off-normal situation causes the system to shut down even without human operator intervention. ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Haunebu - The Experimental KSK Gun

The early models also attempted to test out a rather large experimental gun installation- the twin 60 mm KSK (KraftStrahlKanone, Strong Ray Cannon) which operated off the Triebwerk for power. It has been suggested that the ray from this weapon made it a laser, but it was not. The Germans called it an "anachronism" gun- not belonging to that time period or out of place. When a Vril 7 was downed by the Russians in 1945 a similar underbelly mounted KSK gun was destroyed with debris recovered from the battle site. Postwar the strange meta ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - An Experimental Enquiry Concerning the Source of the Heat which is Excited by Friction - Background

Rumford was an opponent of the caloric theory of heat which held that heat was a fluid that could be neither created nor detroyed. He had further developed the view that all gases and liquids were absolute non-conductors of heat. His views were out of step with the accepted science of the time and the latter theory had particularly been attacked by John Dalton[1] ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - An Experimental Enquiry Concerning the Source of the Heat which is Excited by Friction - Experiments

Rumford had observed the frictional heat generated by boring cannon at the arsenal in Munich. Rumford immersed a cannon barrel in water and arranged for a specially blunted boring tool. He showed that the water could be boiled within roughly two and a half hours and that the supply of frictional heat was seemingly inexhaustible. Rumford confirmed that no physical change had taken place in the material of the cannon by comparing the specific heats of the material machined away and that remaining were the same. Rumford argued that the s ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - T-Veronica - Experimentation

Alexia first used T-Veronica on her father, Alexander, against his will to test the virus' efficiency. Alexander suffered severe loss of brain cells and necrosis of much of his flesh, turning into a mindless creature. Thus, the experiment was deemed a failure and the creature that was once Alexander was locked in the Antarctic Facility. Alexia determined that in order for a host to accept the T-Veronica strain, it must be kept in cryogenic sleep for a long period while the virus incubated. Alexia implanted the virus inter her own body ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Gluon - Experimental observations

The first direct experimental evidence of gluons was found in 1979 when three jet events were observed at the electron-positron collider called PETRA at DESY in Hamburg. Quantitative studies of deep inelastic scattering at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center had established their existence a decade before that. Experimentally, confinement is verified by the failure of free quark searches. Neither free quarks nor free gluons have ever been observed. Although there have been hints of exotic hadrons, no glueball has been observed either. Quark-gluon plasma has been found recently at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collide ...

Experimenter: Encyclopedia II - Supersymmetry - History and experimental searches

SUSY was discovered during the 70's while studying a string theory which includes fermions. SUSY, however, is independent of superstring theory, and applicable also to point particle theories. At present, 2005, there is no experimental evidence that supersymmetry exists in the real world. However, there is some indirect evidence which suggests that supersymmetry may be found at energies n ...
