Heat is generated as a byproduct of microbial breakdown of organic material, and you can use the temperature of your compost to gauge how well the system is working and how far along the decomposition has progressed.
âNearly all psychiatric drugs affect serotonin receptors to some extent, and these receptors also mediate a host of effects outside the brain, for example on blood coagulation, smooth muscle contraction and heart valve growth,â said Bryan Roth, a collaborator on both studies who is professor of pharmacology at the University of North Carolina (UNC).
The 5-HT receptors, the receptors for serotonin, are located on the cell membrane of nerve cells and other cell types in animals, and mediate the effects of serotonin as the endogenous ligand and of a broad range of pharmaceutical and hallucinogenic drugs.he 5-HT receptors, the receptors for serotonin, are located on the cell membrane of nerve cells and other cell types in animals, and mediate the effects of serotonin as the endogenous ligand and of a broad range of pharmaceutical and hallucinogenic drugs.
