Significats de complete desiccation en anglès

Polypedilum vanderplanki is a striking and unique example of an insect that can survive almost complete desiccation.

Anhydrobiotic chironomid larvae can withstand prolonged complete desiccation as well as other external stresses including ionizing radiation.

In addition, almost complete desiccation further enhanced radiation tolerance, possibly in a different way from the hydrated larvae.

Desiccation-tolerant cultured cells Pv11 derived from the anhydrobiotic midge embryo endure complete desiccation in an ametabolic state and resume their metabolism after rehydration.

The larvae of an African chironomid, Polypedilum vanderplanki, are able to withstand almost complete desiccation during which they enter a state of suspended animation.

Thus, the ability for some organisms to survive almost complete desiccation (called anhydrobiosis) is tightly related to the ability to overcome extraordinary oxidative stress.
