X-Message-Number: 27107 Date: Thu, 22 Sep 2005 11:34:56 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug Skrecky <> Subject: 196'th update on fly longevity experiments This is the 196'th update of my fly longevity experiments. Average temperature was 27.0 C during this run. Estimated maximal longevity using the formula (363 - T*11.2) is 61 days. Not much of interest this time. A single fly in the low dose diindolymethane, and terminalia arjuna bottles outlived the controls. Although this is being rechecked in run #213, these outliers do seem likely to be a chance findings.
