Internal Energy02:00

Internal Energy

36.7K
The total of all possible kinds of energy present in a substance is called the internal energy (U), sometimes symbolized as E. Suppose a system with initial internal energy, Uinitial, undergoes a change in energy (transfer of work or heat), and the final internal energy of the system is Ufinal. Change in internal energy equals the difference between Ufinal and Uinitial.

Internal Energy01:29

Internal Energy

7.0K
The internal energy of a thermodynamic system is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of all the molecules or entities in the system. The kinetic energy of an individual molecule includes contributions due to its rotation and vibration, as well as its translational energy. The potential energy is associated only with the interactions between one molecule and the other molecules of the system. Neither the system's location nor its motion is of any consequence as far as the internal...

Internal Receptors01:31

Internal Receptors

74.6K
Many cellular signals are hydrophilic and therefore cannot pass through the plasma membrane. However, small or hydrophobic signaling molecules can cross the hydrophobic core of the plasma membrane and bind to internal, or intracellular, receptors that reside within the cell. Many mammalian steroid hormones use this mechanism of cell signaling, as does nitric oxide (NO) gas.

Measurement: Standard Units03:38

Measurement: Standard Units

79.6K
Every measurement provides three kinds of information: the size or magnitude of the measurement (a number), a standard of comparison for the measurement (a unit), and an indication of the uncertainty of the measurement. While the number and unit are explicitly represented when a quantity is written, the uncertainty is an aspect of the errors in the measurement results.

International System of Units01:29

International System of Units

5.1K
The International System of Units, known as the SI system, is a universally accepted measurement system recognized and used worldwide. The SI system is based on a set of three base units considered absolute, and their values do not change with location. These base units are meters, kilograms, and seconds.
Prefixes are used to define both larger and smaller quantities in the SI system. For example, milli, micro, and nano define smaller quantities, while kilo, mega, and giga are used to define...

Background:

  • Biomedical research is increasingly globalized, with cross-border collaborations and contracts.
  • Ensuring consistent animal research quality and welfare across nations is critical for scientific integrity.
  • Stakeholders, including the scientific community and the public, demand humane and conscientious animal use.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To address the need for harmonized animal care and use practices in international research.
  • To ensure the statistical validity and reproducibility of research involving animals.
  • To mitigate the impact of animal welfare variations on research data.

Main Methods:

  • The study emphasizes the importance of establishing internationally accepted standards for animal care and use.
  • It advocates for the harmonization of animal research protocols and procedures worldwide.
  • Focus is placed on ethical considerations and conscientious animal use.

Main Results:

  • Harmonization of animal care and use practices is presented as a key strategy.
  • Achieving consistent, high standards globally is crucial for reliable research.
  • Improved animal welfare directly supports the quality and impact of scientific findings.

Conclusions:

  • Internationally harmonized standards for animal research are essential for scientific validity.
  • Adoption of high, globally accepted animal welfare practices is imperative.
