What exothermic reaction distinguishes warm blooded animals? The only thing I agree with in the above link is the phrase but you'd probably be better off looking for them yourself. The OP asked for a specific exothermic reaction (negative delta H), and IMO is a very good question |

What exothermic reaction distinguishes warm blooded animals? +1. But which reaction is exothermic? Where does the heat come from? (negative delta H rather than negative delta G) |

Are there any substance that are more dangerous at low dose than at higher dose? I think we need a clarification. Do you mean are there any substances which are themselves toxic or harmful at low doses but which are not toxic or harmful at high doses? You final sentence ("For example you have to ingest ...") makes things a bit ambiguous: obvious examples of such compounds are the vitamins. A lack of of an adequate supply of niacin, for example, causes pellagra, at one time a major disease in Europe and the American south. However, as Rory M pointed out, I don't think this is what you have in mind. |

What is itching? A searh of Pubmed using 'Schmelz itch' produces some very interesting references, including this review (Itch and Pain,by Martin Schmelz, Neurosci Biobehav Rev. 2010, 34(2):171-176) and this. Martin Schmelz is a leading researcher in this field. |
