Figure 4
Effects of radioprotectors on male Aedes aegypti longevity after irradiation. Nine biological replicates were analyzed. Survival plots shown are for (A) 5% ethanol, (B) trimethylglycine (TMG), and (C) lager treatments, each compared to the unirradiated and sucrose irradiated control groups. All treatments show significant differences between the unirradiated control and all other treatments through both one and two week time periods (p < 0.05). Ethanol, lager, and TMG treatments all show a significant increase in survival over one or both of the time periods as compared to the sucrose controls. See text for additional results.
