However, there are still additional improvements of the protocol before satisfactory artificial fertilization is achieved, such as routines to further minimize the handling stress.
This method further allowed us to minimize the handling time, attaching and retrieving the logger in less than 5 min before birds were returned to their nest-boxes.
To minimize the handling of needles and avoid any dilution of the samples in transport medium, FNA were transferred onto a cotton swab immediately after collection.
One advantage of image analysis to measure fin length is that the photos can be analysed after completion of the experiment, which minimizes the handling time of the fish.
Litters were not culled or sexed at birth to minimize the handling of the pups, but male and female pups were separated at weaning (PND 28) and group housed with their siblings, which resulted in 2 5 mice per cage.
The goal is to minimize the handling of biological materials and still end up with standards with a similar matrix composition (mostly in terms of carbon content and density).
Try to minimize the handling, especially in the beginning, so that your tortoise can feel comfortable — no pun intended — inside his own shell.
In this study, we deal with one of the FLP models that minimize the material handling cost between rectangular departments.
(2006) presented a 0 1 integer programming model for designing tandem paths which enables users to select one or a combination of objective parameters for: minimizing the total handling cost, minimizing the maximum workload in the system, and minimizing the number of between-zone trips.
