Begun in 1954, the Faculty Research Edition of the Savannah State College Bulletin was initiated to encourage and publish studies relating to the institution and the fields of special interest of faculty and staff. It contains pure research as well as creative writing. It is primarily a medium for the faculty of SSC, but scholarly papers from other faculties are accepted. Manuscripts that have already been published or accepted for publication in other journals are not included.Certain myxoviruss and several strains of human influenza and parainfluenza viruses are inhibited by amantadine hydrochloride (1-adamantanamine hydrochloride) both in vitro and in vivo. 1, 2, 5 The evaluation of amantadine in the prevention of influenza in humans has been discussed. Other viruses, such as rubella, pseudorabies, and fowl plague viruses are also sensitive to this drug.3, 4 Recently, the drug was shown to inhibit murine sarcoma viruses in cell cultures.

of bovine virus diarrhea (BVD) and SF-4 (bovine myxovirus

Differences in Habitat Utilization and Temperature Preference between Male and Female Atlantic Stingrays Dasyatis Sabina within the Herb River near Savannah, Georgia, and Incorporating Stingray Data into a K-12 Classroom Activity
Full text linkAtlantic Stingrays Dasyatis sabina are ecosystem engineers and benthic predators inhabiting coastal waters along the eastern coast of the United States. These stingrays are seasonal residents of the Herb River near Savannah, Georgia. The purpose of this study was to determine differences in habitat utilization and temperature preferences between sexes across a 14-month study. Stingrays were surgically implanted with acoustic transmitters and a mean percent usage of receiver location was calculated, then mapped. Both male and female Atlantic Stingrays were present in all months of the study (67.5±32.51% and 79.6±28.45% of d, respectively). A few female stingrays had temperatures that were 1-6°C warmer than other stingrays for brief periods during reproductive months. It is possible that female stingrays are exhibiting maternal thermophily but only during brief periods of time. There is suggested evidence of the Atlantic Stingray exhibiting maternal thermophily in a natural setting on a fine scale
