  1. Ecological Roles:

    • Animals play crucial roles in ecosystems. They contribute to nutrient cycling, energy transfer, and ecological balance. Certain animals are predators, helping control populations of other organisms, while others act as pollinators, facilitating plant reproduction.
  2. Economic Importance:

    • Many animals are of economic importance to humans. Livestock and poultry are sources of meat, dairy, and other products. Insects contribute to pollination and pest control, while some animals are kept as pets or in zoos for recreation and education.
  3. Biodiversity:

    • The kingdom Metazoa encompasses an immense diversity of species, each with unique adaptations and ecological niches. Biodiversity is crucial for the resilience and stability of ecosystems.
  4. Disease Vectors:

    • Some animals, especially insects, can act as vectors for diseases. For example, mosquitoes transmit diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and Zika virus. Ticks can transmit Lyme disease and other infections.
  5. Zoonotic Diseases:

    • Animals can serve as reservoirs for diseases that can be transmitted to humans (zoonoses). Examples include diseases transmitted from animals to humans, such as rabies, Ebola, and various influenza viruses.
  6. Biomedical Research:

    • Animals, particularly certain model organisms, are essential for biomedical research. Studies on animals contribute to our understanding of genetics, physiology, development, and diseases, leading to advancements in medical science and healthcare.
  7. Therapeutic Applications:

    • Some animals or their components have been used in traditional medicine, and certain species are sources of compounds with potential therapeutic applications. For example, some marine organisms produce compounds that have been investigated for their pharmaceutical properties.
  8. Conservation and Environmental Health:

    • Many animal species face threats such as habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and over-exploitation. Conservation efforts are critical to preserving biodiversity and maintaining the health of ecosystems.
  9. Human-Animal Interactions:

    • Human interactions with animals, whether through agriculture, pet ownership, or wildlife encounters, can impact human health. Proper management and responsible practices are essential to minimize risks and promote well-being.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
