Allan Poe (London Penguin, 1976) as a core grouping of Poe s science fiction, while sympathetic with David Ketterei New Worlds for Old The Apocalyptic Imagination, Science Fiction, and American Literature (Garden City Anchor Press, 1974), that nearly all of Poe s tales may be considered at least marginally science fictional. 

Discussing the lush interiors of The Visionary, Ligeia, and The Fall of the House of Usher, Ketterer, New Worlds for Old, p. 66, argues that Poe s rooms often serve as machines for transport to an arabesque or intermediate realm. Henri Justin, Poe dans le Champ de la Vertige Des Contes a Eureka, I Elaboration des Figures de I Espace (Paris Klincksieck, 1991), likewise follows the motif of the construction of the chamber in several of Poe s works, linking it to the maelstrom and the heart divine of Eureka. 

On Poe s hoaxes, Ketterer, New Worlds for Old, p. 54, writes, Because all the grotesque tales are directed toward the demonstration that reality is a lie, a tale involving an act of chicanery should be seen in an analogical relationship to the illusory reality that man inhabits.

Although mammals all metabolize phenol to the same metabolites, the amounts of each metabolite vary between species. For example, in the old world monkeys and prosimians, sulfation is the major phenol conjugation pathway, while in the new world monkeys, glucuronidation predominates (Mehta et al. 

Research on wild species in the temperate zones is limited by low species diversity and population density, but in tropical and subtropical areas cockroaches are surprisingly diverse, and valuable field observations in chemical ecology have been made in the tropics. Nevertheless, some temperate zone species, such as Parcoblatta in the New World and Ectobius in the Old, offer excellent opportunities for research under natural conditions. 

Hernan Cortes, who had arrived in America in 1518, did not fail to recognize the commercial value of cochineal. Indeed, the dried insects became the first product exported from the New World to the Old, and Europeans couldn t get enough of that vibrant, beautiful scarlet color. France s famed Gobelin tapestries were tinted with cochineal. There was such demand for the dye that by the sixteenth century Spain was importing half a million pounds of cochineal annually. That s an impressive amount, especially considering that it takes seventy thousand hand-gathered insects to make a pound of the dye. Cochineal red became so popular that it drove kermes into obscurity, and cochineal is still used today. 

The Gal(al-3) Gal epitop is found on cell surfaces of many mammalians and New World monkeys, but not in humans, primates or Old World monkeys. In human blood up to 1 % of the circulating IgG molecules are directed against this epitop [30,44] presenting an enormous immunological barrier for xenotransplantation of animal organs (e.g. from pig) to humans.
