and though this process by no means represents an unambiguous gain and is, in fact, marked by the estrangement from the depths that seems to be the cost of human maturation, it is still a positive step forward ; ;

However, upon immunization with SRBC ( sheep red blood cells ), these mice demonstrated a deficiency in the maturation of an antibody response ; they were able to generate normal levels of IgM, but could not develop specific IgG levels.

The flavour, colour, and quality of industrial cheese varies significantly, and food packaging will usually indicate a strength, such as mild, medium, strong, tasty, sharp, extra sharp, mature, old, or vintage ; this may indicate the maturation period, or food additives used to enhance the flavour.

" The progress of growth is no longer necessary ; maturation is complete, and life and death are in harmony.

Their developmental cycle is also distinct: until the age of fifteen they physically develop just like other humans which they call the period of growth ( zarhoth ), but for the next 25 years after that they go through a period of maturation ( féroth ) where they physically age the equivalent of ten years worth of aging of a " normal " human ; they stop aging ( at least as seen on the surface of their bodies ) after that, hence remaining youthful in appearance until the they reach natural death which is triggered by a special gene programmed to make a person's body slowly shut down when he reaches his 200th to 250th year thereby avoiding shameful senescence.
