We present experimental and theoretical results obtained from the study of the effects of optical feedback in low-cost Fabry-Perot laser diodes due to the presence of an external cavity created by an external reflective or diffusive vibrating target. Experimental results show that a change in the le

Indian journal of pathology & microbiology.Indian J Pathol Microbiol.2009 Jan-Mar;52(1):122-4.
Wuchereria bancrofti is found throughout tropics and subtropics like Asia, Pacific islands, Africa, areas of South America and Caribbean basin. In all these areas, except Pacific islands, microfilaria occurs in the periodic form, in which case the microfilaria are found in large numbers in the perip

Genetic determinism of parasitic circadian periodicity and subperiodicity in human lymphatic filariasis.

Pichon G1, Treuil JP.
Comptes rendus biologies.C R Biol.2004 Dec;327(12):1087-94.
The larval parasites of the pantropical lymphatic filariasis exhibit two types of circadian behaviour. Typically, they only appear in the human bloodstream at nighttime, synchronised with their mosquito vectors. In Polynesia and parts of Southeast Asia, free of nocturnal vectors, they are found at a
