Diminishing glutathione availability and age-associated decline in neuronal excitability
2014, Neurobiology of AgingCitation Excerpt :CaCO3 was added in powder form and as sterilized cuttlefish bone to keep dissolved calcium at saturating levels. Population survival characteristics were monitored and evaluated using a 2-parameter Weibull failure model as it has been previously described (Janse et al., 1988; Slob and Janse, 1988). All animals used in the study were sourced from healthy aging populations as defined on the basis of previously established Weibull parameter ranges.
Phospholipase A<inf>2</inf>: The key to reversing long-term memory impairment in a gastropod model of aging
2013, Neurobiology of AgingCitation Excerpt :Calcium concentrations were kept at a saturating level of 750 mg/L by addition of CaCO3. Survival characteristics of the populations were continuously monitored and evaluated using previously established methods based on the 2-parameter Weibull failure model (Janse et al., 1988; Slob and Janse, 1988). Survival data of all populations used in this study were fitted well by Weibull models with parameters indicative of healthy aging populations (Table 1).

2013, Handbook of Behavioral NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :Consequently, the social situation of an individual may change rapidly from extremely crowded conditions to physical isolation. Previous work has shown that crowded conditions reduce reproduction and survival in Lymnaea,74,76–78 indicating that this species may well be experiencing stress at high population density. In addition, isolation of individuals significantly alters their copulatory behavior to preferentially mating in the male role.79
Redox agents modulate neuronal activity and reproduce physiological aspects of neuronal aging
2012, Neurobiology of AgingCitation Excerpt :Briefly, snails were kept at a 12:12 light–dark cycle in an ambient temperature of 18–20 °C and a pH 7.6–7.9 and fed ad libitum with lettuce and Aquamax carnivorous Grower 600 trout pellets (Purina Mills LLC, St Louis, MO). Survival characteristics of the populations were monitored and evaluated using previously established methods based on the Weibull failure model (Janse et al., 1988; Slob and Janse, 1988). Experimental animals were taken at random from different age-synchronized, healthy, aging populations with survival percentages at the time of sampling ranging from >99 to <20% survival (Fig. 1 and Table 1).
