Backscattering modeling of wheat using vector radiative transfer theory
(2015-04-21)
A microwave backscattering model of winter wheat based on the vector radiative transfer theory has been established. The model focused on the distribution of wheat ears that are directly related to the yield. In addition, ...
Characterization and Expression of the Nuclear Progestin Receptor in Zebrafish Gonads and Brain
(2010-01-01)
The zebrafish nuclear progestin receptor (nPR; official symbol PGR) was identified and characterized to better understand its role in regulating reproduction in this well-established teleost model. A full-length cDNA was ...
Characterization of Wet-Heat Inactivation of Single Spores of Bacillus Species by Dual-Trap Raman Spectroscopy and Elastic Light Scattering
(2010-03)
Dual-trap laser tweezers Raman spectroscopy (LTRS) and elastic light scattering (ELS) were used to investigate dynamic processes during high-temperature treatment of individual spores of Bacillus cereus, Bacillus megaterium, ...
Combination of Raman tweezers and quantitative differential interference contrast microscopy for measurement of dynamics and heterogeneity during the germination of individual bacterial spores
(2010-09-01)
Raman tweezers and quantitative differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy are combined to monitor the dynamic germination of individual bacterial spores of Bacillus species, as well as the heterogeneity in this ...
Chlorpromazine reduces avoidance performance deficit in rats with dorsomedial thalamic lesions
(2013-11-08)
Rats with bilateral lesions of the dorsomedial area of the thalamus were shown to have a significant performance deficit on the acquisition of a one-way active shock-avoidance task relative to sham-operated controls. ...
Introduction: Biology and the Idea of Culture
(2014)
This chapter analyses Frankenstein's dramatization of the costs and consequences of the drive for transcendence in terms of humanist culture's anxieties about human and nonhuman identities in capitalist production. The ...
